13. touched by rain

Meanwhile, Brian was forced to get help on the spot because so many victims had to receive emergency treatment. Moreover, the number of ambulances that came was relatively small so it could not be avoided.

_______

that time...

_______

Brian finally obeyed Lucas' words and wanted to release Emily, so that the medics took care of his wound.

both he and emily, both looked at each other. their gazes, looking worried.

"Sir. Let us take you to the hospital."

but brian refused and kept shaking his head.

He saw Emily who was still silent and pale even though the officers tried to calm her down while providing help. This of course left him speechless and worried.

"Sir!"

"I feel that right now, she needs someone who can rely on her grief. That's why, don't take me to the hospital. I can endure the pain as long as you treat me. Please!"

________

Both brian and emily, they are both silent and also have the same blank expression.

Apart from that, there are other reasons why Brian doesn't want to be hospitalized. He feels that as long as he is still alive, there will be other victims who will fall, just like what happened to Elena.

even as long as he is allowed to stay overnight because it is Damien who wants to treat his wound, he also couldn't understand why Emily kept silent.

even though she didn't show any feelings of sadness at all.

It's hard to imagine if he were in Emily's position. Even when he had to survive alone in the forest before he met Emily, it seemed as if he had to hold the bandage covering his eyes.

So many questions ran through his mind until he heard a loud noise that caused his brain to ache.

so many..

"Sir! Your wound is closed now."

even when the medic finished treating his wound, he was still silent..

_______

(Don't worry.

There comes a time when you know everything.

close your eyes.)

_______

For some reason, he even remembered something. However, the memories were only in the form of sounds that could only be heard from the darkness and also the fire.

but unfortunately, he couldn't remember clearly, the memory just disappeared.

"Don't feel bad, sir. Come on, you should rest for a while. let us take you."

As he was being ushered into the side of the ambulance, he saw Emily for a moment.

so did emily, she also saw brian for a moment even though she closed her eyes again.

"Maybe you don't like it. We won't take you to the hospital. But we want you to rest here for a while."

Brian could only nod his head, and the medics finally left him.

only, he felt strange with the words of the medical officer. while others are only treated on the spot and are not told to move places.

and at the same time, he accidentally found one earplug beside him. Out of curiosity, he put it into his ear. and then..

"hello.. or should i say.. long time no see, my young scorpion!"

a woman's voice came from the earplugs. however, he doesn't recognize the voice, or doesn't remember.

"who is this? i'm brian. not young scorpion" he said sounding confused.
