"Move!" Xiong Jingfei shouted, pushing the students blocking the way. "Get out of the way!"
"Move!" Feng Huan's sharp voice caused the students to immediately create a neat pathway down the hallway.
Xiong Jingfei stood at the top of the stairway and stare downward. As if someone jammed a knife into her chest, she screamed, "Susu!"
She doesn't know how she did it either, but she was skippings steps down the stairs. Losing the strength in her legs, she dropped next to Xu Suying's unconscious body.
Oh my god! Oh! Xiong Jingfei's hands shook, unsure what to do next. Can she pick up Xu Suying's head or body? She cannot carelessly move Xu Suying's injured body. It could do more damage than good.
She felt utterly useless, so she begged Xu Suying on the inside. Please be alright! Please don't leave me! You are the only one I have left. Xiong Jingfei held onto Xu Suying's hand and begged her to wake up.
"P-please, don't leave me behind..." Xiong Jingfei cried. She stared at Xu Suying's face paling by the seconds. Is this what you mean? That something will happen today.
She began to blame herself. Why didn't I go with you? If I did, perhaps I would have been able to save you. Why couldn't it be me who fell? You have so many loved ones waiting for you at home.
"Where the hell is the teachers! Call for help!" Xiong Jingfei yelled at those students still gathered at the top of the stairwell. "Why are you just standing there like idiots!"
They were taken back at Xiong Jingfei's commanding tone. It was their first time seeing Xiong Jingfei lose her composure and raised her voice. She always appeared quiet and had a chic aura surrounding her. She had a vibe of hard to approach, but once you do, you will realize she is pretty friendly.
The students began to keep their distance from Xiong Jingfei after she met Feng Huan. He had a cold and mysterious aura that won't allow them near her. Even if they did, it was hard to be in close quarters with Feng Huan.
"D-did anyone called for the teachers? I thought I heard someone said they will go get them..."
"I did too..."
The students began arguing among themselves, unable to point out who it was that said they will go get the teacher.
"Shut up!" Feng Huan glared at the students, and the whole place did become quiet. He put his hand on Xiong Jingfei's shoulder, "Feifei, breath. Help is on their way, and Susu will be okay. Look, she is still breathing."
Xiong Jingfei didn't realize she was holding onto her breath until now. She breathed out a big sigh in relief. Feng Huan is right, and she must keep her calm until help arrived.
'Please be alright, Miss. Somebody go get me a doctor for my Miss, please!'
Xiong Jingfei flipped her head up, looking for the person who screamed those words. She couldn't have been the only person who heard it. Who else is injured?
Though no one seemed to have turned their attention elsewhere. Apparently, no one heard that voice except for Xiong Jingfei. She just had to make sure she wasn't hearing things. Because that voice belonged to...
Her eyes traveled down to the unconscious Xu Suying. No, it can't be. The breathless Xu Suying cannot even say a word, how can she scream it? Then her heart took a leap when Xu Suying struggled to open her eyes. She kept mouthing as if trying to say something to Xiong Jingfei.
"Susu, I'm right here." Xiong Jingfei wiped away her tears with her bloody sleeves. She doesn't want Xu Suying to be worried about her while in this state. She leaned over to get her ears closer to Xu Suying's mouth. "What? What are you trying to say?"
Meanwhile, some students may like Xiong Jingfei. There are some that will hate her without reason. Some scorned, some laughed, and some cursed under their breath.
Xiong Jingfei's face turned dark, as she marked their faces into her heart and what each person said. Memorizing their face and making future plans for them. She may be awful at recognizing people's faces. However, when it came down to people like them. It wasn't difficult at all.
"I-I…" Xu Suying breathlessly said. Attempting to put a smile on her face, "I won't leave you... My... Stupid-"
The weak hand gripping onto Xiong Jingfei went limp and fell hard against the marble floor. Xiong Jingfei's eyes open wide, taking in a painstaking breath, she screamed, "Susu!"
"Feifei! Calm down!" Feng Huan pulled her back, making room for the teachers who finally showed up. What a coincidence it was. They showed up right when the paramedic arrived as well.
"Are you hurt anywhere, student?" One of the paramedics asked Xiong Jingfei, who had blood on her clothes.
However, those concerns weren't registering through Xiong Jingfei's head. Her focus was on Xu Suying, who was getting rushed out of the school.
Feng Huan had to be the person who answered them, "She is okay but in a state of shock."
"Susu…" Xiong Jingfei screamed, coming to her senses. "Susu!"
Lifting herself up, she chased after Xu Suying's lifeless figure being carried out the doors. She ran after them but slipped on a pool of blood. The pool of blood formed by Xu Suying's injuries. It spread and dyed Xiong Jingfei's school uniform many shades darker.
"Feifei!" Feng Huan pulled her into a sitting position. "Are you hurt anywhere?"
Feng Huan used his shirt to wipe the blood from Xiong Jingfei's hands that have gone cold. He moved the strands of hairs from her face to the back of her ears. Gently, he called out her name, "Feifei, it's alright. Xu Suying will be alright."
Just like before, Xiong Jingfei no longer heard him or anyone else around them. Instead, her eyes were staring down at her bloody outfit and hands.
From Xiong Jingfei's point of view, the blood slowly yet rapidly crawled it's way up to her face. As if a pair of warm wet hands touched her face and then wrapped their arms around her body. She wasn't afraid of it.
They were a pair of hands and arms that she has been waiting for. For a very long time now, and it finally made its presence known.
Xiong Jingfei's lips tremble, hearing the stern yet gentle voice whispering into her ears. It was filled was more love than anyone had given her.
"You must remember my beloved Miss."
Xiong Jingfei's shoulders went limp after that brief encounter between them disappeared. Letting her hands soaked in Xu Suying's blood, hoping to get that little sense of warmth again.
"Let's go get you clean up- Feifei!" Feng Huan kneeled beside her, wiping the tears coming from her eyes. Then she called out a name he never heard of before, "Songsong."
