Sia suddenly fell to the floor from the midst of air, the cool surface shocking her senses as her eyes fluttered open. Blinking against the dim light, she took in her surroundings-a sparsely furnished room with pale walls, a single window letting in silvers of sunlight. Panic gripped her as she scanned the space, searching for Kairan. Instead, her gaze landed on Ancillin, lying unconscious on the floor nearby.
With urgency coursing through her veins, Sia dragged herself toward him, her heart pounding in her chest. She nudged him gently, her voice trembling as she whispered, "Ancillin, wake up. Please!"
Ancillin shook slightly, his entire body stirring as he fought to emerge from the fog of unconsciousness. His eyes flickered open, revealing a depth of confusion, as if he were still lost in a dream. He blinked at Sia, his expression calm yet distant, as if he were processing the world around him in slow motion.
