        flavorsome soup, his warm hands, and the tingling feelings from
        the spiritual energy.
              “Yangbei” A familiar voice called me.

              “Yangbei, you’re awake!” Luxian. God knows how long has it
        been since I last regained consciousness. My eyes feel weird.
        Is that light? That’s impossible.
              “Yangbei, try opening your eyes” Luxian sounded strangely
        excited. Open my eyes? Why?

              Confused, slowly, my sealed eyelids managed to flutter.
        I gasped. Who would have thought that the world could be so
        bright and so beautiful? Tears fell down my sunken eyes. I was in
        my favourite green dress and my hair was tied up properly. My
        eyes explored the room before it paused at Luxian. He still looked
        the same except…

              “Luxian,  why  do  you  have  bandages  on  your  eyes?”
        I asked, quivering. Luxian smiled and remained silent.
              “Why, why Luxian? How could you’ve done this?”

              “It was my own decisions and I don’t regret it.” Luxian
        fidgeted nervously with his slender fingers.

              I broke down. Luxian embraced me and helped me to sit
        up. “I know, I couldn’t stop you and your stubbornness, but you
        could have just given me one eye!.”
              “I wanted what's best for you and you’ve just got the eyes

        of the most powerful demon in the kingdom!”
