"MISTRESS LINDA.!!!"
Bang!Bang!Bang!
"MISTRESS LINDA.!!!"
Bang!Bang!
"MISTRESS LINDA.!!!"
Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!
"What happened,why are you shouting so early in the morning?"said Linda as she opened the door.
She was just about to dress up and head out to her management office of the Smithy,when she heard the banging sound on the door.
However ,when she opened the door ,all she saw was a teary eyed Rebecca ,who with her frizzy hair,looked terribly out of character.
She was surprised to see the usually calm and composed Rebecca be so out of character.
"Miss...Miss ..... Young Master Mika's awake..."
"He looked at me without groaning and .....and his eyes looked ..looke... "Said Rebecca while panting.
However,before she even finished her ramblings,the spot where the blonde haired woman,previously was,became empty and all that could be heard from the large hallways were fast moving footsteps of a certain blonde haired woman, smiling as she muttered in a soft tone.
"I knew it...."
***
My body was sore!
Really sore!
But that was expected considering this body was in coma for about 10 years.I had my memories fragmented,yes,but even I knew that not moving a human body for prolonged periods of time led to accumulation of lactic acid in the human body which was generally due to less amount of calcium, magnesium or posstasium in the body,causing the muscles to create spasms or jerks upon movement.
In short the muscles were stiff!
However ,I am glad ,the system didn't remove my scientific knowlege from my memories.They will really be helpfull in my upcoming journey.
I just hope that magic will be linkable with science ,otherwise I would have to consider it as a supernatural pheomena and nothing more.
Sigh...
There is so much work to do!
Clack!
Hiss..
The door suddenly opened as I heard hurried footsteps ,strodding towards my direction.
Immediately I turned my head and looked at the source of sound,with my blind eyes of course.
However all I essentially saw was ,
Darkness...
But that didn't stop me from keeping my guard up at all, considering I was completely at the mercy of the individual that arrived in the room, might as well take the risk,even if I would die suddenly.
However contrary to what I was expecting,all I heard was a voice which faltered at every letter of the boy's name.
"Mm-....ii..ka"
Instantly I was able to discern the identity of the voice as It was the first voice I heard ever since I reincarnated into this body.
It was the mother!
I understood she expected me to recall and remember everything about my or this body's childhood and identify,however I decided to test the waters first before swimming.
So,all I did was tilt my head ,in the most cutest way possible,and gave a bleat which sounded.
"Maaee?"
Yes like a goat.
Just like a goat.
But all the woman did was lunge at me and hugged be tightly between her arms ,as I became stuffed inside two big marshmallows.
But considering this body being her son's ,I wasn't aroused or even horny, considering I didn't even see her face.
And truthfully, even if I would have felt a slightest bit of itch down there ,even in a healthy situation,I wouldn't be able to look myself in the mirror,if I would get my eyes someday,that is.
This was a sacred moment of reunion between a paralysed son and a weeping mother and I seriously didn't want to ruin it,despite my apprehension to her advances.
I thought,even if she was my mother and this being a new world,there would be numerous schemes around me and it wouldn't be a wrong to consider the mother to plunge a dagger in my chest or poison me ,just for some personal gains,even if we were blood related.
I had instantly assumed that it was a dog eat dog world, yesterday and I wanted to keep it that way for my survival as,
One,I was blind and couldn't see anything.
Two,Such mindset was apt for survival ,when information was scanty.
But the woman just weeped endlessly as warm drops fell on my shriveled up musculature,as I was inevitably naked on the torso with only a loose pair of trousers on my legs.
"Mika ,can you remember me....."
"I...I....am your mother dear, remember you used to kiss my cheek everyday before going to sleep...."
"Remember that day...you said you loved me more than your father...."
"Remember..."
The woman just continued with her endless amounts of 'Remember that day', to gain some kind of satisfaction in heart that atleast her child recognised her,and to be honest I didn't want to break her heart,but..
I let her continue for a while...
Why?
Well, due to the golden-black windows of course.

...
I was seriously happy as even though I didn't pay an attention to the woman,atleast she helped me level up my language skills.
This sudden level up made it easier to lie about my memories to this boy's family and also ease several of my worries as I was in a serious dilemma about the language of this world.
I seriously thought about speaking Tamil or Marathi to this woman as most of what she spoke sounded similar to my worlds Indian language ,but after those windows appeared ,I was really relieved.
This really put a smile on my face.
But this sudden breakdown of my character just startled the woman as she suddenly caressed my cheek ,tracing her fingers over my hollow cheekbones.
"Mika!Did you smile ,I knew it!,You remember me right!"
"I'm your mother!"
"You remember yourself as well right!"
"Your name is ...errr nevermind,tell me,do you feel pain,is your head okay,can you see,do your muscles feel stiff...."
The woman continued rambling and caressing my body ,but this time I paid attention to her touch and words ,as most of them were clearly audible with no unnecessary censoring.
However this time,the response I gave to her was really subtle as I carefully tried to mimic the mental condition of patients who recovered from coma.
Can't give out any more information ,right!
In the end ,I just smiled lightly at her ,and nodded my head softly.
And to add some more drama and to convey the genuinity of my feelings ,I went in with my lanky arms , quivering,as I held both her cheeks with my non existent strength and smiled again with my teary pupiless eyes ,trying really hard to produce fake drops of emotion.
But contrary to my expectations,the body did as it was told and produced droplets which fell on the womans dress.
Drip!
Drip!
I was stunned for a moment,as I had declared in my mind yesterday that my emotions were extremely tranquil for a sudden reincarnator,but I was wrong it seems.
I concluded , maybe it was the remanant of the previous Mikahela inside this body who produced such tears as to be honest,
I DIDN'T FEEL A SINGLE THING
PERIOD.
Maybe because she wasn't my real mother or maybe it had something to with the so called entity'X'.
Who knows?
And maybe I shouldn't get attached to this lady or anyone in general in this world,as I already had difficulty remembering my real one and I'd rather not hold any feelings for these people as eventually I would have to leave or die at the end of this so called slavery or what the entity likes calling,'Mission'.
***
Eventually,the woman stopped crying as she hugged me again,showering me with the profound bliss and warmth of a mother.
But suddenly, two pairs of footsteps resounded in the room as the door again creaked open.
The two people eventually came near the bed,as one of them cried profusely and another just stood near my legs while caressing it.
The man was the same father who had visited to comfort his wife.
The mother eventually was taken away by one of them ,but the man who was essentially this boy's father ,just stood near my legs.
Suddenly the man grabbed my foot and pressed tightly at it.
I started screaming while restricting my voice and all the came out of my mouth were bleats.
The man eventually released his grip as he finnally sat on the bedside and started caressing my arm.
I was scared shitless this time!
What if he breaks my arm this time?
What should I do?
What if he kills me?
All these thoughts resounded in my mind but my face was absolutely stoic and expressionless.
Infact,even while the man tried crushing my leg, I didn't feel my facial expression change at all.
Most of the pain was just in my head.
It was as if I was incapable of expressing my feelings to anyone!
Everytime I felt pain,it was just simulated in my brain!
Eventually the man spoke in a soft tone while caressing my hands.
"Thank goodness,I thought you were a demon who possessed my child.But I am gald it isn't the case or else I would have to kill you....
Son....."
Saying such terrifying words, without any consideration to his mentally disabled child ,he stood up from the wooden bed and started walking towards the door of the room.
Eventually he stooped and just looked down on the floor,as he said in a low tone,
"I can't let anymore spies near Linda and Mika...I need to be careful"
May be the skill called [Enhanced Senses] helped me listen those words,as a ting resounded in my head, indicating a level up,but those words which entered my ears made me realise....
'This is going to be tough.....'
