Chapter 43 - Chapter 43

Mika could feel nothing but pain, mostly his waist and head. But why? Wasn't his heart the one which was stabbed, then why is his head hurting, so much? Mika tried to open his eyes but couldn't. His eyes felt so heavy to him as if some weight has been put on them, but that didn't stop from trying. After a good minute he finally successed in his task.

As soon as he open his eyes shutters white seiling greeted him. Mika was confused for never ever he saw a plan white seiling in the royal palace, then is he dreaming or he simply is not in the palace. Mika moved his head to right then left, only to see a hospital room, but how can that era have a hospital room similar to his time period, or..., did he... came... back? Mika abruptaly gets up to end up in sitting position, with out careing about the shooting pain in his back and head, he examind his surroundings. A perfectly normal hospital room.

His head was hurting as never before. It was sever, he stroked his forhead to feel it wrapped in bandages. So that's why he was feeling this pain, must have gotten hit on head, hard. Then he suddenly remembered the horror of his life which haunted him in nighmares, giving him sleepless nights. That accident in which he was close to loose everything, he remembered, he was wounded on his head, blood was flowing out of his head like niagara falls. Those memories were still vivid in his head. He couldn't belive it, but reality was shouting at him saying he came back.

So, he came back, he... came... back.. from there. Mika was confushed to what to feel, sad or joyish. Although he was happy to finally get to feel his technology era but he was feeling empty after realising that he could never meet those people from history ever again. More and more emotion were surfacing in Mika's heart, making a storm out of it, pulling Mika in it. Mika was smiling while his eyes were crying, never in his whole life he felt so stressed out before, a feeling he couldn't run away from, whether to feel empty or contempt.

Before Mika could be swallowed by his initial storm completely, a noise of door opening dragged his attention to it. A men came in the room, closing the door behind him. The man was a doctor, given the white coat he wore on his casual outfit of black paint and light blue shirt. His shoes were black, shinning in light, clothes were well ironed, blond hairs were neatly combed and parted in the middle, making him look like a clean freak. Mika starred in the blue eyes, which starred back at him. "I see you are awake now." owner of blue eyes spoke "How are you feeling?"

Mika's first thought after starring at the doctor was 'a foreigner' then replied the other "Ah, yeah, I just woke up."

"Hum," the doctor hummed, he was writing something on his clipboard paper. "Since you were in coma for 3 months so let me fill you in what is the currunt situation. I am your doctor, William John. You hit your head hard in the accident that caused internal bleeding and brain swallen, whicj led you to coma. It is a mirical that woke up, we were not sure that you would ever gain consiouseness. Just before your comatose you were considered dead for a few seconds and that was also unbelievable how you went from dead to brain dead. All in all you were in coma for last 3 months and woke up now. Now all we have to do is examine you throughly, whether you are fine or just a calm before storm." The doctor looked up from his clipboard "I mean, it's aften seen that one would get perfect in any health issue before dying." he continued on with his writting.

Mika could see, the doctor was professional but what was keeping him on edge was how Mr. John had traits of some lone shark, telling a patient on their face that they might die after examination. '3 months, huh?' Mika looked outside of the window beside his bad to find mountains and forest gazing back at him. 'I heard before I teleported in Chi empire that my family was out of danger, then they should have been perfectly fine by now and must be worried sick form while I was enjoying my days over in Chi empire. I should contact them right now, shouldn't make them more worried then I already did.' Mika looked back at John "Um, Mr. John can I contact my family?"

John looked up from his clipboard, "They are not from this world anymore."

"Huh? Did they also teleported to some other world?" Mika's voice was filled with confusion.

"If you want to summarize death in this manner then yes they did but I can't inform you whether their destination is heaven or hell." Jhon's face was emotionless.

"W-W-What? N-No i-it c-can't be. I heard w-with my own ears that they were out o-f danger." Mika stood up from the bad, he felt dizzy but somehow balanced himself. "You must have some missunderstanding." Mika grabbed Jhon's coller "Please, don't joke around like that. H-How can you say something like this so causally while they are still alive. I know they are."

Jhon ripped Mika off of him. "I don't joke." He fixed his crocked coller "They were out of danger but weren't fine completely so when out they heard about your coma, the stain from the news killed them within a week." he spoke emotionless as some robot.

I-I ki-killed them?" Mika fell on ground and was having mental break down. Tears were streaming down from his eyes, nosey from nose and saliva from his mouth, making him a living sepionse waterfall. "I killed my family." Mika wanted to scream his lungs out but a shattered mind didn't much had effect on the body anymore so all that came out of his throat were sobbing and moaning accompaning the waterfall making him a sight to look at.

All the while Mika was crying, Jhon didn't spared a glance at him, engaged in writting. It's not as if John lacked human immotions, perhaps it had something to do with his profession that he seed this kind of view every now or then. Whether the cause for John's indifferent attitude. The thing was that he made no attempt to sathe Mika upon his loss.

Maybe Mika senses did broke down for he didn't heard another person coming in the room, asking him what's wrong, why is he crying like that and even shouted in his ears. but his senses had to come back when a slap stinged his cheak. "Sorry, I had slap you since you were freaking out." A man with black hairs said.

The new arrival had black eyes like his hairs and a spectacle round in shape. His clothes were casual and messy just like his hairs. He had an aura of some crazy scientist. Unlike John who had healthy and fit body, this person was thin but not as a toothpick. All this aside, what was most irritating was how from his shirt to slippers, everything were mismatched. as if he wore whatever his hand got hold of first. "Why are you crying in such ugly manner?" He asked curiously.

"I-I killed my family." Mika replied.

"Killed? when? According to my knowledge, they died in an accident." the man was confused.

"N-No, they were alright but as they heard of my coma, they died of too much pressure on their brain." Mika was still looking at the floor from he was slapped.

"That's news to me." the man sat down in front of Mika. He looked at Mika "Wait a sec, what coma you are talking about?"

Mika looked up at the man in anger "What you mean 'What coma'? I've been in coma for 3 months and just woke up only to find both my parants and brother died. And here you are who should be a hospital employee." Mika said 'Should be' since he was unsure of looking at his dressing style but not anyone can come in a patient's private room, so he should be an empolye here "is asking me of what happened around me in these months. Are you sure you should be here and not in mental hospital?" Mika glared at the man.

The man didn't said anything, he was just starring at Mika, which made him really uncomfortable. The man moved near Mika only to stop an inch from his face while narrowing his eyes on Mika "Um, what are you doing?" Mika asked hesitantly.

He moved back in his formor position but was still staring at him "No for real, what the hell are you starring at me for." Mika yelled.

The man didn't changed his expression or the stare, after a good minute he stared clapping, he looked at Mika and said with a bright smile. "Congratulation, you have finally gained the most important talent for being here."

"Huh?" Mika titled his head to the side slightly in confusion.

The man smirked at Mike's confusion "Now you are properly welcome here since you had finally gained the most importent requirement for being here." Mika was still confuse, what the hell was this man sprouting about. The man grabbed Mika's right hand and shook it "Congrats on your first lunatic behaviour and welcome this time as a real lunatic at the Gray Asylum."

"WWWHHHHAAATTTT????" Mika shouted at the top of his lungs.
