Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 485: She will wait

Xiao Tianyao, Senja and Xiao Jun managed to go through the capital city's gate with the help of Yun, Ju Long and a few member of his clan.

At the outside, Qi Xunyi had been waiting for them along with Moon Dew Clan, at the background there was a big tent as infirmary place.

From the tent, Doctor Lin came out and rushed to approach Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun with Qi Xunyi behind her.

At first, Senja didn't realize Xiao Tianyao's condition because she couldn't see it during their ride, however when she dismounted from the horse and heard a loud gasp from Doctor Lin when she saw Xiao Tianyao, Senja turned around only to see three arrows stuck to his back.

Doctor Lin rushed toward Xiao Tianyao and with the help of Xiao Jun both of them brought him into the infirmary tent.

Senja hobbled into the tent as well, her mind was in disarray to see Xiao Tianyao in that condition.

He had a long deep slash on his back, but now he had another wound with three arrows. Senja felt like crying, but there was no tears came out. Her body trembling as her breath turned uneven.

When they brought Xiao Tianyao into another room that covered with curtain, she brought her weak legs to come inside as well, but Doctor Lin held her back.

"Senja, please wait outside. I need to run a major check on him and do the necessary medical procedures." Doctor Lin's voice told her softly. "He will be alright" She reassured Senja when she didn't give a sign that she heard her.

Senja looked at Doctor Lin straight in the eyes with furrowed yet, emotionless expression.

She was lie, Doctor Lin telling a lie Senja could feel it.

Doctor didn't even sure if she could help Xiao Tianyao, she knew from the first glance at his wound that it was too bad and too late.

But, Senja didn't say anything. She let Xiao Jun brought her to wait outside of the tent.

Xiao Jun was talking to her about something like; Xiao Tianyao would be alright. He needed to go back to the capital city and led the remaining people that he had, because this was their final chance to strike. Senja needed to wait there and take arrest. Everything would return to normal.

All of them were nothing. Nothing was important now. There was nothing that could attract her interest as she flopped down beside the tent's door. Pulling her legs to her chest and hugged them while burying her face on her arms, hiding herself from the world.

If they wanted to wait, she would wait

Senja could feel the sad gazed from Xiao Jun and Yun as she spoke, her voice sound very distance and wasn't like her. "Modama killed Uncle Su his body is still there" Her voice was coming out as a harsh rasp.

Yun staggered back as his breath became unsteady before he said. "Alright." Then he was gone, leaving Senja and Xiao Jun.

The calm night was disturbed by the noisy sound from afar as the battle still continued at the capital city.

Xiao Jun stepped forward and squeezed Senja's shoulder as a form of silent support and told her to be strong, her purple hair was messy with dirt stuck on them.

"Be strong, okay?" He said softly. It was hard for him to see his own brother in that critical condition as well, but he wouldn't help anything by staying.

"Alright." Senja nodded, still refused to see him as she burying her face between her arms, seeking for comfort.

With heavy sighed, Xiao Jun walked away from the tent and led his people back to the battlefield.

.....

The night passed by with the clashing blade and shouting sound as its background.

At this moment when the sun touched the horizon and warmed Senja's cold body, whether Yun or Xiao Jun had returned from the capital city or Doctor Lin came out from the tent.

Senja didn't sleep, she tried to find a comfort in her own silence. But, her mind kept reminding her about something that she might lose, or to be precise someone who she bound to lose.

Her heart caved in.

She might not be a doctor, but she could sense how tense Doctor Lin and two other people inside the tent as she felt Xiao Tianyao was fading away.

At this point, she started to think that; is it their last time?

She knew that she loved him, however never realized how much she loved him. But, now she did.

To be separated by time was something that would happen the moment she returned to her own world, but at least Senja knew that Xiao Tianyao was fine.

However, being separated in situation like this was something that she wasn't ready for.

She was afraid.

"Tianyao can you wake up please? Don't you know how much I miss you?" She whispered to herself as tears flowed soundlessly down her cheeks.

The sun shone brightly, indicated the start of a new day.
