Rong Xinghe's painful past !

Finally , 8th of November arrived .

Rong Xinghe landed in Country I after the flight journey of three tiring hours .

Xi Yuan already knew that Rong Xinghe was going to visit Country I the day before her birthday , so he had made his own arrangements in order to follow her .

But to his surprise , Rong Xinghe didn't headed to any hotel or inn . Instead , she directly went to a railway station and as a man concerned for his woman , Xi Yuan simply kept on following her .

It was almost One O'clock in the noon when the girl reached Rukawa Railway Station .

She didn't do anything odd .

She simply bought a cup of tea from a local tea seller and sat down on the platform .The woman had no expression on her face .

She was simply staring into the distance as she sipped the tea .

This expressionless woman , for some unknown reason , seemed more frightening than her usual self .

Even Xi Yuan was a little worried by Rong Xinghe's actions .

The man was standing behind a pole not too far away from Rong Xinghe and his gaze was fixed on her .

What was the girl's connection with this place ?

Why did she visited this place every year ?

How was her past related to a railway station ?

These questions were storming in the man's heart , but he couldn't just walk and confront the girl . She needed her space .

It was just his own curiosity that brought him here .

He had no right to push her for any answers .

_________

After sometime , Rong Xinghe took a deep breath and said while she continued looking into distance , " Yuan . Don't stand behind the pole . Come here . "

Xi Yuan was a little stunned when he heard the girl's words but then he took a deep breath as he walked towards her and sat down beside her on the same platform .

"How did you ... "

" Your Caron Poivre perfume is rare and recognizable . ", Rong Xinghe said in the same zoned out tone .

Oh ... so that's how she knew that he had been following her .

It seemed like she recognized her perfume as well .

But then again , her senses were extraordinarily alert 24*7 . Her five year Military Chief training had shaped her up like that .

" You won't ask why I came here ? ", Rong Xinghe finally looked at Xi Yuan .

Xi Yuan simply shook his head ," I won't . You can tell me if you are comfortable enough . And even if you are not , don't bother . I will just stay by your side till you are ready to go back with me ."

Rong Xinghe felt warmth spread through her heart when she heard the words "I will just stay by your side " from Xi Yuan .

This man ....

He was always too good to her .

He always knew the right words to say at the right time .

He never pushed her for any explanation , even though he knew nothing about her .

He always trusted her , no matter what the world said about her and that was the exact reason , that she felt that she was not worth a person as good as him .

The girl felt like she should tell her reason behind coming to Country I to this man .

So she pointed her index finger towards the railway track a little further from the platform .

"What is it Xinghe ? ", the man looked confusedly in the direction the woman had pointed .

" Ten years ago , I was lying on those railway tracks covered in my own pool of blood for an entire night .", the girl said expressionlessly .

What?! Xi Yuan was completely shocked by this one sentence !

What exactly had happened ? What was the story behind the incident ?

The man quickly calmed himself down and kept listening to the girl .

If even hearing those words were so tough for him , then he had no idea how difficult it was for Rong Xinghe to say those words .

"You know Yuan , that in Country I , railways are not that technologically advanced . They are basically open and do not have automated doors like our country's trains have .

" So after winning the 'Voice of the World' competition , I was returning back to Country I's capital city Shengu via train as National Airway staff was on a strike at that time .

" This Rukawa railway station is one of the most isolated locations in Country I . No single person is seen in this location at all during nighttime . Only one train named Viuf Central passes through this station once a day . I was in that train .

" I still remember that it was two in the night when I was pushed down the train . The train was running at its maximum speed Yuan . It was not at halt . Can you even imagine how painful that must have been for me ?

" I had hit the back of my head to that vertical yellow rod over there . That is the reason behind me being a post-traumatic migraine patient . Else than that , my legs were also hurt . I had to remain on wheelchair for an entire year . I had even been in vegetative state for two whole months . ", Rong Xinghe said in a robotic manner , void of any emotion .

Xi Yuan was so worried about the girl that he quickly pulled her into his embrace and started rubbing her back .

Pushed down a speeding train ....

Two months in vegetative state ....

One year on wheelchair ....

Post-traumatic Migraine ....

Damn it !

He had really never expected that Rong Xinghe , his woman , once had went through such a horrid experience .

At this point of time , Xi Yuan's heart was aching too badly for the woman he loved .

Just like Rong Xinghe had felt his pain when she had rejected him in New York , he was feeling her pain today .

Love had always been like this .

A person would always care more about his lover than himself , when in love .

But Rong Xinghe didn't stopped .

She needed to let it all out .

Although she didn't tried to free herself from the man's embrace , she kept on speaking ," You know what is he funniest part ? Can you guess the name of the person who pushed me down , Yuan ? "

"Who was it ?", the man said in a heavy voice .

He was literally at the brim of breaking down but he had to stay strong for the woman in his arms .

He so wanted to kill the person who had committed such a sin ten years ago !

"It was the son of my Second Uncle . My 'brother' . Rong Yufan !", the girl said .

Xi Yuan's hold on the girl's shoulder tightened even more after that .

Rong ?

The Rong Family ?

Her own brother ?

No wonder she didn't believed in a happily ever after for herself !

No wonder she didn't believed that she could too have a warm and complete family !

No wonder she hated the Rongs so much !

The damage they had done was beyond any repair .

"And Yuan , do you know what day it was ? ", the girl looked at the man as she lifted her head up from his embrace .

The man simply shook his head in a 'no' .

"It was my 13th birthday. "
