Her brows twitched and her lips spread in a blissful smile, one they have been seeing on her face for months now even though she is in a coma.
Huo Ying was cleaning her face with a wet towel and then she noticed her smiling again, she caressed her cheeks with a bright smile on her face.
Somehow she wishes she would wake up to see that reality is just as blissful as her dream.
"I hope you used to have these dreams when you were away from us unlike the nightmares I have,"
She dipped the towel on the bowl of water and held her hand to clean, she took it upon herself to do this for the past months since she has been in bed.
The slender hand just like her that she could never hold before were now in her hand and even whilst it makes her happy, it brings back the memories of her sister strangling Huo Yi Lang.
She knows just how kind-hearted Huo Lan is and that it would hurt her to remember that she almost killed a person when she wakes up.
"Huo Lan, we are all waiting for you to wake up," she said as she placed the towel back in the bowl of water.
"Han Chen,"
She heard a murmur but she couldn't tell for sure that it came from Huo Lan, she leaned closer to listen then she heard her call the name again.
"Huo Lan," she muttered in disbelief, placing her hand on her shoulder to awaken her.
She slowly opened her eyes as she fluttered her lashes to behold the same face she sees in her dream, everything was the same.
"Yu Yan?" She muttered unable to tell if she is still dreaming.
"Huo Lan!" Huo Ying exclaimed
She noticed Huo Lan was trying to sit up so she helped her up still unable to believe that someone who has been lying in bed for two months now is finally awake.
"You are finally awake, I need to tell the others," she jumped up from her seat and was about to leave but Huo Lan held her hand back, she turned back in surprise.
"I saw you in my dream, Huo Ying," she said, resting her back on the support Huo Ying placed for her and holding her hand in hers.
"Your dream?"
"Yes, you were there with many people and there is someone you are always smiling at," even if they were twins, the person doesn't have her red eyes and red hair thus she assumed that she must have seen Huo Ying even if the world doesn't seem like theirs.
Huo Ying stroked the back of her hand.
"Is that why you kept smiling, because I was smiling in your dream?" she asked and Huo Lan nodded in answer, she didn't say anything for a while but stared into her sister's eyes.
She leaned towards her and held her face.
"I haven't been able to see your eyes because you were sleeping for so long, my dear sister,"
Looking closely now, she can see the scarlet orbs and the faint brown ring inside them. She has never been able to understand those who think her sister is a monster just because she is different when she has always coveted the eyes her sister has.
"Huo Ying, I want to see mother," she requested then Huo Ying nodded and stood up to tell everyone she is awake since she has managed to spend time alone with her she should also make everyone happy when they know she is awake.
She had just walked to the door when the door opened, her mother, the guardians, Huo Li and the elders were already there, she was surprised to see them but she bowed to greet her mother and the elders first.
"How is she?" her mother asked not knowing her daughter is already awake, Huo Ying smiled and pointed towards Huo Li.
Their eyes went round at the sight of Huo Lan sitting up on the bed. Madam Huo quickly rushed to Huo Lan's side and held her hand tightly whilst stroking her cheeks to make sure she is not dreaming but the scarlet orbs were enough for her to believe.
"My child," she muttered, suppressing the sob of happiness and sadness of having to wait for so long.
They all went forward after her.
"Mother," Huo Lan called as she wrapped her hands around her mother's neck and sniffed her to take a whiff of that familiar scent she used to have on her, back then, she remembered her mother looked very young and she used to have this nice scent you get in a garden full of nice scented flowers.
Even though her face has aged, the scent is still there.
Madam Huo tightened her arms around her back and started shedding tears of joy, except for that one day she was allowed to visit the flame sect, she was never able to hold her to tightly like this, see her scarlet orbs and stroke her scarlet hair.
"Mother really missed you,"
She unwrapped her arms with a bright smile on her face.
Everyone else just stood back while they admired the emotional scene in front of them but they soon realised that have forgotten their manners.
They dropped to their knees and cupped their palm and fist.
"Greeting second young mistress," they chorused in unison, although she doesn't want the formality, it reminds her of the day she returned to the sect for a day, how they treated her with so much respect despite her uselessness.
"Second young mistress," the elders greeted, bowing slightly.
She said nothing but smile at them in reply.
"Mother, is father still in seclusion?" she asked and her mother nodded in answer with a sad look on her face which they all had immediately she asked the question.
If her father could see her back with them then he will be able to absolve the guilt he has always held in his heart for sacrificing her to save the rest of the sect even if it is his responsibility as the sect leader of the Flame sect.
"Su Ci? where is she?" she looked around but couldn't find her.
"Ever since you returned, she has been training with the disciples to strengthen herself as one of the guardians of the flame sect but I will tell her you are awake," Huo Ying answered and was about to leave but Huo Lian stopped her.
"I will go," she opted then left to bring Su Ci.
Huo Lan suddenly winced, making them concerned all of a sudden.
"What is it?" her mother asked.
"My head, it is pounding," she answered.
"It must be because we are disturbing you as soon as you woke up, we will leave you to rest," she stood up from the side of the bed then stroked her face before leaving with the others except for Huo Ying who opted to stay behind in order to look after her but she knows her mother wouldn't leave so soon if she wasn't overwhelmed with the sudden happiness of having her second daughter awake and by her side again so she must have left to release the tears behind closed doors.
She returned to Huo Lan's side and helped her lie down.
"You should sleep,"
Huo Lan tapped the side of the bed, asking her to sleep beside her as she has already forgotten that someone went to get Su Ci.
Huo Ying slept beside her as she wanted with their arms around each other, a luxury they could never afford in the past even when they were kids because they were worried she would hurt Huo Ying since she can't control her power but now that she has proven herself, everyone already assumes she is just powerful and no longer a danger.
Huo Lian indeed met Su Ci training with the advanced disciples and she was taking on three of them even though she got beaten seriously since she is still very weak compared to them that is why Huo Ying suggested she trains with them.
The advanced disciples of the flame sect are very skilful but the moment a superior becomes weaker than them, they stop obeying the orders and that is why Huo Li tries very hard to remain stronger so she doesn't lose control of them.
Even if Su Ci sacrificed her freedom for the sect and she is now a guardian who is respected by all the disciples, Huo Ying knows a time will come when they refuse to acknowledge her if she still remains weak and as Huo Li's guardian, she wants to make sure Su Ci is capable of protecting her.
She stopped the training then took Su Ci to Huo Li but they met the sisters fast asleep, Su Ci knelt beside the bed and watched both of them with a smile on her face while Huo Lian watched her from behind.
"Aren't you dissatisfied?" Huo Lian asked, Su Ci stood up and walked towards her.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
