Chapter 204 - 204. Markus Sulking

*THREE DAYS LATER, A DARK FOREST*

A lady was walking alone, scared of her surroundings, trying to find her way back.

She had been stuck in this dark forest for days. She couldn't even differentiate between days and nights as the sunrays couldn't even enter the deep crowded forest.

Even she herself didn't know how long she had been walking, searching for something, more accurately searching for her way, a hope that would let her be back.

It had been days since she hadn't seen even a single living organism around her. Sometimes she would hear some sounds, some muffled voices, something that made her walk towards the unknown sound.

She wasn't sure about what was awaiting her, but she kept walking towards that occasional sound, praying that at least the sound would pull her put, give her a way towards her home.

And finally after walking all this time, she suddenly found a hand extended towards her.

A hand coming out through the deep bushes signalling her to come forward, to hold it. 

She immediately ran, her speed increasing, intending to grab that arm.

But just as she reached near it, the hand was gone, with only bushes remaining there.

She tried to grab an imaginary hand, holding on to the bushes, desperately searching for that one hope which had suddenly vanished.

She even tried to shout and cry for help, but only a weak sound was produced, making her feel even more agitated.

She was clearing all those bushes when she once again started hearing those muffled sounds.

She paused in her actions, waiting for the voice to get clear or louder so that she could follow it. 

And she heard that once again. This time it was more clear than it had always been.

She immediately ran towards the voice, deciding that she was not gonna lose it just like the disappeared hand.

The voices became even louder as she felt that maybe she was nearing the sound. She kept running and running until she found a light, a light at the end of this path, signalling that maybe she had crossed the entire jungle.

She ran towards the light at her fastest speed, huffing and puffing by the time she was exactly at the end.

She could still hear those voices. And she kept running. But suddenly the intense brightness made her stop in her tracks and close her eyes.

"Kizy!" She heard the voice again and slowly opened her eyes, trying to adjust her vision to the room brightness.

And the first thing she saw was Markus, her husband, her devil friend, the man who she had vowed to spend her life with.

"She opened her eyes!! Doctor look at that!!" Markus exclaimed, his voice high pitched.

The doctors started doing their job, examining her vitals, asking her to follow his moving finger with her eyes, to lift a hand or foot or to move her fingers or toes.

Once they were done with all of these, they congratulated Markus, stating how miraculous this recovery was and how healthy and strong-willed his wife is.

They stayed for some more time before leaving the ward.

But before Markus could have any talk with Kizy, all his family members kicked open the door and entered hurriedly.

He had been sitting near her bed, watching her face when he felt her finger move. 

At first he thought that maybe it was his delusions. But when they moved once again, he was sure that it was Kizy.

He immediately started calling her name while pressing the emergency button for the doctors.

He could see that her fingers were moving for a while, but they suddenly stopped moving.

By the time the doctor arrived, no movement was visible.

Markus still held her hand, calling her name, telling the doctor about how she was moving her fingers.

And being a VIP patient, the doctor immediately started doing some tests.

But suddenly, Kizy creased her forehead, before her eyelashes fluttered and slowly opened her eyes, shocking all the doctors.

The Evans family had already appointed caretakers who immediately passed the message of Kizy waking up to the family.

Thus now here Kizy was, surrounded by all her family members and friends including Kate, Mary, grandma, grandpa, Nicole, Joel, Nina, Lewis, Felix, Lisa, Catherine and finally her pitiful husband Markus, who couldn't even greet her properly.

"How are you feeling? Do you feel any discomfort or pain?" Kate asked, tears threatening to fall from her eyes.

"N… no.. I…" Kizy tried to speak but her throat was parched, making her unable to speak properly.

Markus instantly stood up, filling a glass with warm water and placing a straw inside, before passing it to Kizy.

Kizy just looked at him, before taking a sip or two of water slowly, before sipping more.

After that she talked a little with the family after which all the members forced her to rest and went back one after another.

Markus, who had wanted to speak with Kizy, was left sulking, knowing that he wouldn't get to speak with her until she woke up again.

But still he was happy and content with being back to normal, looking at him with those shiny eyes of hers.

He looked at her sleeping face one more time before getting up, setting the temperature a little higher to make her comfortable, while standing up and going towards the window to make a call.

He was about to call the person when he heard a voice behind him.

"Markus." Kizy said, coming out a little dry than she expected.

Markus immediately turned back, only to frown at the scene that greeted him.

Kizy, wearing her hospital dress was standing near the bed, trying to walk ahead.

"Stop!! Why are you standing???" He exclaimed before rushing back to Kizy, lifting her up and placing her back on the bed.

"B.. but-" Kizy was about to speak when Markus directly kissed her gently, capturing her lips while pouring out all the emotions that his heart had been holding onto. He kissed her slowly, for a minute halting and refraining himself.

"I want to tell you something." Markus said gently, once he had broken the kiss.
