I cared. Even if she was the demonic princess that everyone hates- well, almost everyone. She looked so pretty under the sunlight, the way her pale face shone against the light, her small, plump, pink lips brilliantly glowed under the light too. She looked so- kissable at times.
She was an atheist at it too. She hated god. Hated praying. She thought it was useless. What was she to do now? Doctors spoke wrongly of her, nothing to cure it, god couldn't help her either.I want to do something… anything… If just… she would let me…
I sat down on the bed next to her, right away, she leaned over to me, wrapped her hands around my waist, continuing to cry.
"Its okay. I'll help you. We'll find a way." I put my chin on her head, tightening the hug a bit. She repeated what I had said.
"Is that way you said? I thought I heard you say it… I was probably wrong. Shiro… I-I missed your voice. Am I going insane?" She said even though she couldn't hear herself say it, but she could hear it in her head. My eyes widened.
"Y-You heard me?" She did? My, that would be wonderful! I looked at the doctors as they looked at her in astonishment.
"Y-Yeah! I-I heard you!" She said sniffling in between words. Instinctively I hugged her again. She could hear me… Only me…
"Can you hear them?" I pointed to the doctors. They came over and kneeled by her.
"Can you hear us, Miss?" He waved his hand in her face. I was disgusted at him. He treats her like a dog. She doesn't deserve that.
She pointed to her ear, shaking her head after. That was weird. She could hear me, but not them. "Are you faking?" I accidentally said out loud. She looked at me.
"Im not lying. I can't hear them. Don't act as if this was all a magic lie."
Those words hurt me. She trusted me. I broke off a piece of her heart. "Can you keep on smiling for me though?" I looked at her with pleading eyes. I took her into yet another embrace. For the girl who never smiles, I'll make her smile. A boy who grew up without happiness, and a girl who doesn't know it… How could I bring happiness to her?
They looked at me, then at her, then at me again. "Looks like you two have a very special… connection." What did they mean? "Connection?" "You can go in a few 'll just run one last test." I sighed, half relieved, half tired. Wait… Where were we going to go? The fire burned the castle down…
She looked at me and her eyes told me the same thing I thought. Where were we going to go? Doesn't matter. What does matter is she'll get to walk again.
I waited and waited. It was about thirty minutes until she was released. I ran to her again. I hugged her tight and sighed, grabbed her hand and walked out of the hospital. She was free. She could begin to smile again. Turn over a new leaf. Happy.
