Chereads / Adventure in Astra / Chapter 31 - Tear..

Chapter 31 - Tear..

Theo's heartache and the brokenness he feels upon waking in the hospital room only make him more determined to find a way back to Astra. He clings to the vividness of his experiences, the depth of his emotions, and the love he shared with his harem.

In his mind's eye, he sees Lily, Arabella, Beatrice, and Emily, their faces etched with pain and longing as they await his return. He feels the warmth of June's embrace, her whispered confessions of love echoing through his soul.

The prophecy's whispers had been a constant companion, guiding him through battles and moments of passion. They had become a part of him, a piece of his identity.

The emptiness he feels in this cold, sterile world only fuels his resolve to find a way back to the land of his destiny. He knows that his true place is by their side, fighting for Astra's future.

The whispers of fate seem to respond to his desperation, growing louder, more insistent. They speak of trials and tribulations, of a journey fraught with danger. But they also speak of love and unity, of a destiny that can overcome even the most impossible odds.

Theo makes a silent vow to himself. He will not let his coma be the end of his story. He will find a way to return to Astra, to his harem, and to the prophecy that had made him the most cherished person in the kingdom.

The whispers of fate seem to hear his resolve, their volume swelling with each beat of his heart. They whisper of a way back, a path that only he can find.

Theo closes his eyes, focusing on the warmth of his harem's love. He feels the beginnings of a plan formulating, a way to bridge the gap between worlds.

As he drifts off to sleep, the whispers of fate grow quieter.

In the hospital room, a nurse enters to check on Theo, noticing his restlessness. She approaches the doctor, who's been observing him from a distance. "Doctor, how much should I give him?" she asks, holding up a syringe filled with a clear liquid.

The doctor, who's been studying Theo's charts, looks up with a thoughtful expression. "30 milligrams," she says, her voice measured. "He needs rest. His body and mind have been through a significant trauma."

The nurse nods, understanding the gravity of the situation. She administers the medication, watching as Theo's tense muscles begin to relax.

The doctor, however, cannot shake the feeling that there's more to this man's story than meets the eye. His vital signs fluctuate in a way she's never seen before, as if responding to an unseen force.

The whispers of fate seem to hang in the air, hinting at a world beyond this hospital room. She can't explain it, but she knows that Theo's destiny is not yet complete.

The nurse leaves the room, her thoughts lingering on the mysterious patient. The doctor continues her vigil, her eyes never leaving Theo's peaceful face.

The whispers of fate seem to be waiting, watching, as the medication takes hold. Theo's journey is far from over, and the prophecy that had whispered to him in his sleep was now echoing through his waking moments.

Theo's mind, though trapped in this mundane world, reaches out to Astra, searching for the thread that will lead him back to his true destiny.

The doctor's voice is calm but curious as she addresses the nurse's question. "Theo is indeed an orphan, but his situation here is quite unique," she begins, her eyes never leaving Theo's prone form. "He was found at the scene of the accident with no identification, but it was clear that he'd performed a heroic act. He'd pushed a young girl out of the way of oncoming traffic, taking the impact himself."

The nurse's eyes widen in surprise. "How did he survive?"

The doctor nods solemnly. "A stroke of luck, perhaps, or perhaps something more. The girl's family, wealthy and influential, have taken it upon themselves to cover all his medical expenses. They consider him a guardian angel sent to save their daughter."

The nurse looks thoughtful, her hand lingering on the machine that monitors Theo's vital signs. "It's as if the universe has a plan for him," she murmurs.

The doctor smiles, a hint of knowing in her eyes. "Or perhaps it's more than that. Perhaps it's destiny," she suggests, her gaze drifting back to Theo.

The whispers of fate seem to resonate with her words, their presence growing stronger in the room. It's as if they're urging her to see beyond the hospital walls, to understand that this man's story is far from over.

The nurse nods, her curiosity piqued. "I'll make sure he's comfortable," she says, her voice filled with a newfound respect for the patient.

The doctor nods in agreement, her eyes never leaving Theo. "Do that," she says, "his pain is just beginning."

Theo's days in the hospital are filled with a mix of pain and confusion. Despite his desperate yearning to return to Astra, the whispers of fate remain elusive, leaving him feeling lost and isolated.

One afternoon, the girl he'd saved from the accident, whose name he later learns is Elara, visits him again. She's younger than he had initially thought, her youthful face a stark contrast to the heavy emotions she carries. Her blue eyes, filled with unshed tears, meet his briefly before she looks away, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment.

Her hand reaches out to grasp his, her touch gentle and warm. "I'm sorry," she whispers, her voice trembling. "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be in this state."

Theo feels a pang of pity for her guilt, but his thoughts are far away, in a land of magic and destiny. He doesn't respond, lost in the depths of his own despair.

Elara's mother, a stern-looking woman with a gentle touch, enters the room and places a comforting hand on her daughter's shoulder. She offers Theo a small smile filled with gratitude. "You've done more for us than we can ever repay," she says, her voice thick with emotion.

The whispers of fate seem to stir at her words, as if hinting at an unseen connection between their worlds.

The doctor, who had been quietly watching from the corner, steps forward. "Elara," she says, her tone firm yet kind, "Theo needs his rest. You can visit him again tomorrow."

Elara nods, her eyes lingering on Theo for a moment longer before she leaves, the weight of her guilt palpable.

The doctor approaches Theo's bedside, her expression one of understanding. "You will be okay," she says softly, her eyes filled with a knowing look. "And when you are, I believe you will find your way back to where you belong."

The whispers of fate grow louder in his mind, a gentle reminder that his destiny is not yet complete. Theo clings to her words, his determination to return to his harem and fulfill the prophecy stronger than ever.
