"Mommy, Mommy, don't go..."
"Huo Siyu, why won't you let me go..."
Like a dream, a fantasy, one moment it was her as a child, the next it was Shen Li crying.
He seemed to have fallen into a nightmare, the endless darkness almost devouring him whole, something he had not felt for so many years, he had almost forgotten.
The sudden attack caught him off guard.
"Siyu, Siyu..."
The call was right by his ear, seeming near yet far, still unable to break free, Shen Li was still crying, crying out his name.
"Siyu, Siyu, wake up..."
It sounded like Huo Tianqi's voice, one of the most important people in his life, they had grown up together since childhood, keeping each other company.
When he was in his deepest pain, Huo Tianqi was by his side.
"Huo Siyu, I beg you, let me go..."
Shen Li's sobbing was getting closer, each tear like a pearl, clear and shining, yet it felt like a knife piercing his hand.
Why cry, wasn't his most cherished woman happy by his side?
