Chapter 144

When I opened my eyes, I was staring at a white ceiling. I immediately sat up, and the sharp pain I expected didn't come. 'Did Kairos heal my injuries?'

It seemed that Kairos had sent us to a hospital. I looked around for any signs of Kairos, but he was nowhere to be found. Then my eyes landed on the tabletop beside me. There was a piece of paper and a black rose resting there.

Curious, I opened the letter. 

I'm sorry I wasn't the first one you saw when you opened your eyes, I have something to attend to so I dropped you and your friend in this hospital. Hope you get well soon. 

Don't miss me too much,

K.

I couldn't help but smile at his gesture, feeling a warmth in my chest. I looked at the rose and was about to smell it when the curtain beside me opened.

I quickly hid the rose and letter, feeling a flush rise to my cheeks.
