Waking Up in an Unfamiliar Place

'Mhmm.'

Rin mumbled as she found it hard to control her body.

Even her fingers weren't listening to her as she tried to move them, but she couldn't.

Rin slightly opened her eyes to see a couple standing in front of her bed.

She was shocked, but the expression on her face was still of one who is asleep.

There was no change in her facial feature, indicating that she was awake, and if the couple noticed her barely opened eyes, they would think that she may be suffering from nocturnal lagophthalmos.

'Who are they?'

Rin focused on the couple.

The man looked like he was in his mid 20's.

He stood tall, with broad shoulders and his silver hair dangling on those shoulders.

He had a light beard while his chest area, which was visible through his unbuttoned shirt, was full of hairs.

'He is a hairy dude...'

Rin thought as she focused on his looks.

'He looks handsome and those sharp eyes.'

Rin praised the looks of the man who had crimson eyes and a sharp jawline.

Then Rin shifted her gaze towards the woman who looked like a young maiden.

The woman was resting her head on the hairy man's chest. Her face wasn't visible. That is why Rin couldn't see much.

Even though she couldn't get a clear view of the woman, she could see a chilly aura from her as her eyes fell on the woman's pale neck and the woman's hand, which she had placed on the man's chest.

'Her hand is even whiter than snow.'

Rin admired the woman's beautiful hands as a nostalgic feeling hit her head, and she could feel a pain that passed through her heart.

'Ahh.'

Rin moaned in pain as she bore an excruciating pain.

'Who are they?'

Rin questioned, but her voice didn't come out.

'Where am I?'

She questioned while looking around the surrounding.

She knew that she was on a bed, but except for the beautiful couple in front of her bed, the surrounding looked like weird close space.

It was like a wooden cabin.

'I remember leaving my work then why am i...Ah.'

Rin wondered as she started remembering the past in parts.

The memory started from the time when she had left her work after a long day of work.

"Honey, Look."

The woman said with a worried face as she was done resting on her husband's chest.

"Our daughter... has opened her eyes."

The woman said as happiness filled her face, but she was still worried.

'I am her daughter?'

Rin wondered.

She couldn't believe it as she was an orphan.

'What's going on?'

'Why is she calling me their daughter?'

Questions after questions popped up in Rin's head.

"Honey, calm down. You will scare her."

The man told her wife.

"Stop.."

Thud!

"..Joking when our daughter is sick."

The woman was facing Rin as she hit the man with a punch directly aimed at his abdomen, causing him to fall on his knees.

"What did I do? Ack"

The man questioned as he turned in pain. Just because he told her to stay calm, he had to suffer like this.

'This woman is still scary as ever.'

The man thought as he hardly got up with the help of the bed; Rin was on.

A regular exchange between the couple, who were supposed to be Rin's parents, proved to be a shocking scene for her.

'How could a woman be so strong?'

Rin questioned the woman's strength, who could make a tall and burly guy like the man in front of her fall with a single punch.

Rin looked down as she tried her best to look away from the woman and not looking her in the eyes.

'I don't want to get punched by her.'

Rin thought as she trembled.

But that didn't help her as Rin started trembling intensely as the woman walked towards her.

'Tap.'

Beat!

'Tap.'

Beat!

'Tap.'

Beat!

As the sound of the woman's footsteps got closer to Rin, her heartbeat started increasing

Rin's excitement started rising.

Without realizing it, Rin could control her body. She could move her hands. Rin closed her hands.

Her hands which were now closed in a fist were getting painful as she could feel sharp nails poking her palms.

With the increase in excitement, she could feel her mouth getting dryer and her jaws getting heavier.

Soon pale hands entered her sight as they reached towards her face.

"Ah."

Rin made a sound as the hands gently touched her cheeks, and she could feel the coldness behind those hands.

Even though the pale hands were cold, Rin could feel a warmth entering her body, through the coldness of those hands.

Rin felt the hands slowly raising her face and without fighting back, Rin looked at the woman.

"Huh."

Rin was shocked as she looked at the woman who may be the most beautiful woman, she had ever seen.

The woman's skin was pale but with her baby face and long black hair, she looked like a fairy.

"My daughter *sniff* I thought you would never wake up *sniff* Thank you so much for coming back."

Hug!

The woman hugged Rin as she started crying.
