**Cannot touch
Cannot hold
Cannot be together
Cannot love
Cannot kiss
Cannot have each other
Must be strong,
And we must let go
Cannot say
What our hearts must know
How can I not love you
What do I tell my heart
When do I not want you
Here in my arms
How does one waltz away
From all the memories
How do I not miss you
When you are gone**
Joy Enriquez was singing from the cellphone near her ears.
Senja didn't feel the hard ground of the cave or the supposed dirt around her, instead she felt the comfortable of the bed and the soft pillow under her head.
She felt disoriented, but not dizzy enough to forget everything that had happened. The hollow in her heart still refused to close, as if it would always be like that
Her heart tightened by the pressure of the memories about him that flooding in her mind
The way he smiled
The way he protected her
The way he touched her
And the last 'thank you' from him
It's still echoed in her mind.
Suddenly she heard a shrill scream filled with agony. The sound was so heart wrenching and ear- deafening.
Only when someone yanked open the door with so much forces, Senja realized it was her own voice.
"Senja! What is going on?!"
The familiar voice that she missed the familiar protectiveness of her brother
"Sian, what happened to her!?"
Following after Sian, there was Lee and Zhao rushed into her room.
"I don't know" Sian hugged the crying mess Senja, caressed her back hastily to calm her down.
Based on the sound of their footstep, Lee and Zhao were shuffling inside the room, checking every corner and windows. But, they could find nothing, there wasn't anything out of ordinary or possible harm.
Finally they came closer toward Senja's side and looked at her with concerned.
At this time, Senja had stopped screaming and was sobbing in Sian's arms.
"Tell us what happened, Senja?"
She opened her eyes slowly and looked at her worry brothers staring back at her, then she looked at her surroundings briefly.
In only a glanced Senja knew that she had returned to her world and she was in her own room.
"Were you sleeping and then bad dream?" Zhao perplexed, crouching down on the bedside.
"Was it a bad dream?" Lee asked incredulously. The furrowed in his brows indicated that he didn't believe his own question. "You screamed like someone was murdering you."
Senja didn't answer her brother question she buried her face on Sian's chest, looking for comfort.
Her family was here, she finally returned to the place that she belonged
But, why she still didn't feel right?
"I missed you" Senja said truthfully with weak voice, she hugged Sian's torso tightly.
The three brothers looked at each other back and forth, didn't understand what his sister meant.
"Because you only hugging Sian, does that mean you only miss him?" Zhao quipped.
With his remarked, he was earning a hit on his head from Lee and Sian at the same time.
"Hey! I just saying!"
With that, a faint smile graced Senja's lips as she told herself that she would be alright.
Everything has returned to its place and it would fine
She would be fine eventually.
Right?
Gradually, Senja let go of Sian as she looked at her brothers one by one, she indeed missed them.
"Bad dream" Senja croaked.
The three of them raised their eyebrows in disbelief, Zhao wanted to argue and pursued different answer when Lee kicked his legs that automatically shut him up.
"Why are you wearing a weird dress like this?" Lee pointed at Senja's dress.
Senja looked down at the dress that she was wearing, she was still in her grey dress, the same dress that she was wearing when she went to the Mountain Sui Sword Sect.
"Cosplay costume?" Zhao asked quaintly.
However, it wasn't her dress that caught Senja's attention it was her hair.
Her tresses long hair that draped on her shoulder looked odd. She got used to see her purple hair, but now her hair color returned to its original color. It was black.
She took her hair and looked at it with furrowed in her eyebrows.
"Now she looked at her hair oddly are you sure she is fine?" Zhao whispered to Lee beside him.
After a moment of silence, Sian shook her body gently to get her attention. "Senja what happened?"
"What date today?" She asked a question that was strange for them, but Lee answered her anyway. "Tomorrow is our mission in the hospital to retrieve the rare drugs?"
"Yes" Sian drawled his answered, didn't understand why she was asking the obvious.
So it's mean
She came back three days before the night when grandma Riana asked for her help to find Yun
