Chapter 518 Sia's Traumatic past
"During the time she was hospitalized, Sia was extremely obedient. She ate when she was provided with food, and took medicine when she was asked to. She obeyed the doctors words and never threw a tantrum. But she suffered from insomnia and nightmares. It was extremely hard for her to sleep and when she finally slept she would wake up from nightmares. Lack of sleep impeded her recovery. So with no other choice, the doctors had to prescribe sleeping pills with minor dosage to facilitate her sleep. That was the only choice they had" John sighed nOVElB1n
Hearing Sia's past everyone turned quiet. After a long sigh, John continued to speak "After staying in the hospital for more than month, Sia was finally discharged. As Mr and Mrs Rao were worried about her safety, they decided to let Sia stay in my uncle's house for a while. And just like that another two months passed. But during these three months Sia never spoke. She did not cry or laugh nor show any expression. Even when she stumbled on a rock, fell from the stairs or burnt her fingers, she never cried or screamed. She was completely enclosed in her own space. Infact, we could say that Sia was actually fighting with herself. Several instance she was caught trying to inflict harm to herself but forcefully stopped from doing so at the last moment. She was fighting to grow strong. And the only thing we could do was to pray for her recovery."
"One fine day when Mr and Mrs Rao had come to my uncle's house, Sia suddenly proposed that she wanted to go abroad. Uncle and aunty were initially worried to send her away but then sister Sia convinced them saying that the kidnappers were no longer alive and the master mind was dead. Though uncle and aunt were still not relieved, they could only go along her wishes and decided to send her abroad. They had wanted to follow her abroad but Sia did not allow them to do so. She did not even allow them to make any luxurious arrangements. She wanted to live a simple and low key life and hide her identity. She did not want others to know her whereabouts except for her parents. Too relieve uncle and aunties worry, I decided to follow Sia and go abroad with her. My uncle, using his connections was able to hide our identity and made arrangements for us. While we were in abroad, we refrained ourselves from contacting our family just to hide our whereabouts. We only contacted our family once in a month secretly to reassure them. We lived a very secretive life for the first few years, and This was also the reason why no one knew anything about the two of us"
"Life in abroad wasn't easy for us initially. Since we joined the school as ordinary students we were constantly bullied. Little Sia who was mentally unstable was the most prone for bullying. Most of the time I would stay beside her and protect her but there were times where I couldn't stay by her side and those arrogant kids took advantage of this opportunity to bully Sia. Thankfully Sia met sister Nathalia. Under sister Nathalias gentle care and protection, Sia slowly started to recover herself. Though she was still in pain, she forced herself to grow strong and return normal for the sake of her parents and family"
Putting a finger on her lips, Mu Jun said with a faint smile "You don't have to tell me. It's fine if I don't know, I'll still protect you with my everything. I just don't want you to recall those painful memories that you don't want to"
Shaking her head, Sia grabbed his hand tightly and said firmly "No, I want to tell you everything. If not now, I'm afraid I'll never have the courage to speak about it again. So please....will you hear me out?"
Heaving a deep sigh, Mu Jun say down on the bed and pulled her into his arms, preparing to hear her out carefully.
Lying in his arms, Sia started to recount the past.
"...I was taken a to a research base again. This time the base was different from the one before. It was huge and had much more equipments than the previous one. There were chemicals, equipments and computers everywhere. I was locked up in a cage from where I could see them operating on human, animals and sometimes an unknown creature. They kept me locked in that cell and injected me with some liquid for two days. On the third day when they finally pulled me out preparing to experiment on me, grandma suddenly appearing the base. When I saw my grandmother do you know how happy I was? I thought I was saved and could finally leave this horrible place but then I saw them capture my grandma. They forcefully captured my grandma and brought her to the operating table. Without injecting anesthesia they operated on her when she was still conscious"
