Chapter 52

FAR-BRIDGE

Morning

He had spent a sleepless night at his house for more alone time with what was going on in his head. The fact that he was supposed to kill Kro at the end was still very distracting and disturbing. But what Leo told him on the other end was a bit helpful; there was still a huge possibility of him growing old with Kro in his life. That was one thing which energized him to go back to Kro's house and proceed with where they'd left off.

The house was unusually quiet; Misaki's car was parked outside meaning she was still in, but Leo's was not. So, it was just Misaki and Kro, that's what he thought. As soon as he walked inside, he headed direct to Kro's room. The first thing that caught his sight was the empty bed, followed by the detached IVs. Misaki was cluelessly sleeping on a couch; her phone was tightly gripped in her hand.
