Sera looks at Kyro as she said "Its okay, I will handle grandpa"
Kyro frowned, something was bugging him. He was feeling like he should stop her and ask her more but before he could say anything she already walked out into the garden.
Sera sighed seeing the flowers in the garden, she couldn't remember how she passed away on the bridge and end up at that Granny's place.
She was really confused when she wakes up there, and when she asks the Granny all she said was,
"A young man was running everywhere carrying you on his back, he was looking really worried. I took you guys in, but just after laying you in the bed and seeing you were okay he suddenly just vanished away"
Looking at a beautiful flower she frowned and murmured 'Who were you?'
...
Shane was sitting alone in a dark room, there was not even a single trace of light.
He was just sitting there drawing something, finally when he finished it. He took that paper and quickly turn on the lights.
His eyes turned soft and his lips curved into a slight smile as he stared at that paper.
"Beautiful"
There was just a hand wearing a ring, drawn on that paper. He rubbed his fingers on that hand as if he was trying to feel its warmth, his finger stopped on those small thin fingers, his eyes were fixed on that beautiful ring.
"I don't know who you were but if we met again. I will surely pay you back for saving me"
That night,
He was startled, his mind went all blank. He didn't know what to do anymore. Her body was all cold, her hands were freezing, it was even hard to hear her breathe. He quickly took off his jacket and covered her. He doesn't have a single idea what he was doing but he just carried her in his embrace and rush for a better place.
His phone was also dead. So he just ends up running everywhere banging on everyone's door, there was no taxi at this hour all he could do was banging on doors for help.
After the 50th time, finally, an old lady opened the door.
"Excuse m-" But before he could say anything, she shut that door right in front of his face.
"Go away, Young man... I am sure you are one of those thugs who fool people and get into their house. I have nothing, it will just be a waste of your time. Go to the left row third house, that lady there is really rich"
Shane couldn't understand what she was saying at all, but he replied in a loud voice "Please Grandma! I am not a thug" He touched Sera's hand, she was completely turning cold "The girl.. this girl with me will die like this if you wouldn't open the door"
"Please Grandma.. her body is turning cold"
"Please!!"
Seeing there was no response, Shane sighed. Even he was getting a hard time breathing the cold air. But still, he can't give up like this... he was about to move forward but then suddenly the old lady opens the door and covered both of them with heavy blankets.
"Quickly get in, before I change my mind"
Without hesitating, Shane just nods and walked in. It wasn't really that good house, the texture of the house was weak and shabby as if it will crumble down if there would be any chances of heavy snowfall or storm.
But still, he quickly laid her down in front of the fire. Her hairs were still covering her face.
There was a strange urge inside him, he didn't even realize when his hand went towards her face. Her beautiful black hairs were all over her face, not letting him see anything. He tried to slide her hairs from her face, but the movement his hand reaches her face suddenly she grabbed his hand.
He got really startled for a moment, he didn't want to look like a creep or something.
Her hands were still cold, she was murmuring something. He leans forward so he could hear her.
"Momm..... Pl..ease... don't"
For some reason, he sat back. He didn't want to hear that, he could feel pain in her voice. He just sat there staring at her hand. Her grip was really tight on his hand. He looked at the ring she was wearing and wondered "Are you also in pain just like me?"
Suddenly granny walked inside holding some clothes. There was still a grumpy expression on her face but he didn't mind.
"Here take this, and change your clothes"
Shane just took those clothes and nod.
"And here are these, change your girlfriend clothes too"
His throat suddenly dried down as he replied "She.. she isn't-"
That old lady looked at their hands "She isn't your girlfriend, then who is she? your sister?"
Shane responded quickly in a sec, getting his hand out of her grip "No. Friend, she is my friend"
He nods vigorously looking at the old lady. It would be sound weird if he tells her that he literally doesn't know her at all and just pick her up from the street. Yeah totally weird.
"Kids these days! Okay, get out then! I'll change her clothes"
He smiled took a last glance and then quickly walked out.
After changing Sera's clothes, when she walked out and look for Shane he was nowhere there.
There were just clothes left that she gave him and a note "Granny, I'll pay you back for your kindness. Please take care of her for me"
Granny smiled looking at the note "Ha! Kids these days"
