“ About My Life “

” I didn’t know this is where I would end up “

She clenches the sheets with her bruised hands as she is lost in deep thoughts. Sun Rei was lying in one of the hospital’s beds, staring at the lights from the ceilings. Trying to figure out how she got there.

“ How come I was not good enough? “ she asked herself. She tries to hold back her tears but fails. “ For the past 8 years I tried my best to make you proud...but...this is what I get in return?”

Sun Rei never thought her own family would actually abandon her.

She slowly sits up to look at her surroundings just in case somebody heard her. There was another patient next to her however the curtains that are in between them were covering half of that patient’s bed, she could not tell if that person was asleep or awake, she just hoped that patient did not hear her talking to herself.

knock knock\~

A nurse opens the door and peeks her head in ” Miss Sun you have a visitor “

Sun Rei wipes her tears with her hands to fix herself. She looks at the nurse and gives a nod.

The nurse fully opens the door and makes way for the visitor to enter. In came a girl with Long black hair and light brown eyes, she was wearing a yellow sundress above her knees as she carries a fruit basket in her hand, she looks at Sun Rei and flashes a warm smile.

“ Guess who is here to visit you baby sis! “

“ I’ll leave you two alone “ The nurse smiles and leaves as she closes the door behind.

Sun Rei wanted to break into tears again but she was happy that her sister came to visit and she doesn’t want to look weak in front of her.

“ Sun Chi! What are you doing here? Don’t you have practice? “

Sun Chi clicks her tongue and walks over to Sun Rei.

“ Sun Rei! You know you can cry around me, it’s not a bad thing. “ she pulls out a chair from the corner and places it next to Sun Rei’s bed to sit. Sun Rei chuckles and looks down at her own hands.

“ It’s an habit...” said Sun Rei

Sun Chi sighs and puts the fruit basket on the counter that is next to Sun Rei.

“ I skip practice just to see you...and no father and grandmother does not know yet “ Sun Rei quickly looks up at Sun Chi with a scared look.

“ You do realize they are going to get angry “

“ Well not really, but it’s not wrong visiting my little sister is it? “ she pinches Sun Rei’s cheeks.

Sun Rei can’t really tell Sun Chi that father and grandmother will get angry at her, Sun Chi wouldn’t believe her little sister even if she tells her. She won’t know that their family will blame Sun Rei for causing Sun Chi missing one of her rehearsals. Her family will blame Sun Rei for wasting her time, blame her for getting in the way of the eldest daughter of Sun family, blaming Sun Rei for even existing.

“ Sun Chi I think you should go now...

”

” But why? I just got here “

”No! You can’t miss any of your rehearsals “

” My god! Can’t you please stop talking about work, I just want to see you. Is that wrong? “

Sun Rei takes Sun Chi’s right hand and pats it. “ Dear sister, visit me when you have free time “

” I don’t get a break until the beginning of next month, Sun Rei! “

“ I’ll wait for you “ she gives out a weak smile.

” Sun Rei who knows how long you are going to live, what if you die tomorrow! I didn’t get to spend much time with you! “ Sun Chi looked like she was going to burst out of tears.

The eldest sister was not wrong, the Sun family is waiting for the day for Sun Rei’s death. The only person who ever cared for her is her sister.

“ Besides it’s not fair that grandmother and father get to see you a lot “ she frowns.

Sun Rei gives an odd look to Sun Chi, their family has been feeding Sun Chi lies for years now and she knows how naive her eldest can be. Sun Rei sighs and lets go of Sun Chi’s hand.

“ They told you that? “ said Sun Rei as her voice sounded cold.

Sun Chi was taken a back from her sudden change of voice. “ Ah...yea?”

“ Sun Chi how long have I been in the hospital? “

“ Almost two months...” she replied

Sun Rei lowers her head

“ During all those times, not even one of them showed their damn faces here “ She clenches her sheets with her bruised hand.

“ What are you talking about? I helped them pick out gifts for you all the time when they were going to see you. “

Right now Sun Rei’s mind was full of anger.

” look around ChiChi, do you see any gifts? For the past 2 months. “

Sun Chi quickly looks around the room, her younger sister was right, where’s the gifts that she helped pick out? The room just looked plain and not much was in it.

“ There must be a mistake here...how can there be no gifts? “

“ Because father and grandmother never came! “ she tried to hold back her tears

” Sun Rei...”

Sun Chi couldn’t understand what was going on, she still doesn’t believe that her grandmother and father would isolate their own family member, that’s their flesh and blood.

” I’ll go talk to father and grandmother to see what’s going on “ she gets up from her chair

“ Sun Chi wait “ she grabs her eldest sister hand

“ Just forget it, haha...I think the nurse has my gifts in a storage...or maybe in my old room “ Sun Chi stares into Sun Rei’s eyes, the look that her youngest sister gave her was fear.

This made Sun Chi go look for answers from her family. Something was wrong, something was not sitting right, why is she seeing her younger sister living in fear before her eyes. She takes Sun Rei’s hand and plants a kiss on it. “ Sun Rei I’ll be back soon, and don’t worry....I won’t say anything to them. “ Sun Chi gives Sun Rei the biggest brightest smile “ I love you Rei, and if there is anything wrong...you know you can tell me, I’ll be there for you...when I’m not busy “

A tear drop from one of Sun Rei’s eyes “ I love you too...and but I don’t think I can say anything “

Both Sisters let go of each other’s hand, Sun Rei looks towards the window as Sun Chi quietly walks out of the room, leaving her youngest sister alone.

” You’ll never understand what they have done to me ChiChi “ Sun Rei whispers.

” Oh my fucking gosh! “ The patient that was next to her roughly opens the curtains that were between them, revealing not just himself but the whole side of the room that was hidden. Sun Rei was startled by this patient’s husky voice, her roommate seems to be a male. She lowers her head while biting her lower lip.

Omg he heard all of that? He was awake all this time? No! I must’ve awakened him. This is all my fault and now he’s mad.

“ Hey new roomie, I asked nurse Holly to switch my crazy roommate with someone who is calm, not someone who is very talkative and can’t shut up, respect someone who is sleeping! “

“ S-Sorry...it won’t happen again “ she avoids looking at him.

the male groans and walks up to her, he begins to check her out to see if she is okay

” You don’t have to be scared of me, I won’t hurt you and I can’t hurt you “

Sun Rei still avoids eye contact and refuses to lift up her head. “ If you think I am weird or talkative just ask the nurse to switch me out your room “

The male tilts his head to peek what she looks like.

“ Nah..Imma give you a chance, besides it’s been a day since you moved into this room. “ He holds out his hand in front of her.

“ Sorry for hearing your conversation but you were too loud, my name Xu Weilong, what’s yours? “

Sun Rei slowly turns her head to his side, staring at his big hand in front of her face. She finally looks up, meeting her eye contact with his. He was a tall handsome man with white dyed hair, when looking at his face his fierce brown eyes caught your attention, his milk skin complements his dyed hair as well. When she looked down at his mouth, his pink plump lips were formed into a grin.

“ Well, if you won’t answer me I’ll say your name for you “ he grabs her hand and shakes it.

” Nice to meet you Sun Rei “ he gives her welcoming smile.

” Ah...yes nice to meet you too Xu...Weilong?”

“ That’s right, now please beware to know when to shut up....and by the way...talk to yourself in your head next time. “ he goes back to his side and lies down on his bed.

Sun Rei blushed in embarrassment, she realized her roommate did hear everything.

This is embarrassing....Maybe if I annoy him, he’ll have to ask the nurse to change my room and I won’t have to see him ever again.

“ Hey Xu Weilong!”

” Mmhh? “

” Wanna hear more about my life? “

“ No! “

“ Too bad, you’re hearing it “

“ Urgh “ he groans

“ So I am seventeen right now and the stuff with my family begin 8 years ago “

“ Don’t care “

” My mother disappeared around when I was nine and I had lived with my father, grandmother and my eldest sister, my father and grandmother weren’t that welcoming but my eldest sister was “

” Did I even ask? “

“ Grandmother and father wanted a perfect child...and that was my sister. She can cook, dance, sing, she’s even an amazing artist too, I do the same things but I never get credit on my skills and I am not as near good as her, I even took piano lessons and violin lessons just to please my grandmother but she always told me I was not good enough. I even tried to sing to my dad like my sister have done but he never stays still for my performances “ Sun Rei looks down

” He probably left because you were tone deaf “

Sun Rei shot a death glare at him which made Xu Weilong flinch.

” Ok ok I’m listening “

“ So I have done everything I could to compete with my sister in order to gain love and affection like they do to her but I get nothing in return, not even ‘ good job Sun Rei ‘ “ tears starts fall down from Sun Rei’s face

“ They told me to never cry and crying are for the weaks, but I can’t help myself, I’m such a cry baby”

Xu Weilong gets up from his bed and walks up to her “ Move over “

” Huh? “

He gently pushes her to make more room on the bed, he gets in with her and wraps his long arms around her small body.

“ It’s okay to cry “

Sun Rei was kinda shook over his actions but it was something that she needed.

” You barely know me...” said Sun Rei

she doesn’t know why he was doing this, her plan was to annoy him to the point to switch rooms.

“ Well you seem like my annoying baby sister...in fact you act like her “

Sun Rei chuckles at his words

” Who gives a **** about family anyway, just move on like they move on from you “

“ Maybe you’re right...but I always wanted a family “

” Then...allow me to be your older brother until death does us apart “ he smiles at her.

She blinks at him ” How old are you? “

“ Twenty four...”

“.............”

” Ah...mind me asking, how did you end up in the hospital? “

“ I became very weak, not eating...not getting sleep but been mainly practicing my dance skills...because of that; my whole body became weak...so did my heart...I can’t get too excited or depress or I’ll have an heart attack “

“ Well I have an illness that can’t be cured...and my family doesn’t care if I die either. I am helpless so they threw me out. And... I promised myself I wasn’t going to get attached to nobody but somehow I am stuck with you “ He grins at her.

“ What type of illness is it? “ Sun Rei asked

” We’re not close yet “ he gets off of the bed and goes back to his side again.

After a few weeks, Sun Rei had gotten along with Xu Weilong, they were talking about their favorite anime, favorite food, sharing their interest in comics except Xu Weilong was into action and Sun Rei was into romance.

* During Night time at the Hospital *

” Oh my god Sun Rei, it’s late! Are you reading another romance manhua? “

“ Yes let me be “ Sun Rei was under covers with her phone reading her manhua online.

” Seriously! Again! What is with these comics? All of them are about drugging someone and rapping someone against their own will! “ Sun Rei tosses her phone on her the bed

” I told you those romance manhuas were trash, don’t all of them have the same storyline? “

Sun Rei sits up and takes the sheets off from her head

” Depends which romance on manhuas you’re reading, we got historic love, we got mother who leaves the country pregnant and come back with twins, we got a pregnant mother who also leaves the country from their abusing husband and comes back with a whole child and not telling the father he is the father until later on in the story and gets back with that father. And we have a romance where people who has arranged marriages or marriage contracts and the main rule is not fall in love but they end up falling in love anyways “

Xu Weilong chuckles at Sun Rei’s words “ HaHa Rei go to sleep, stop wasting your time reading those comics “

Sun Rei obeys and puts her phone down “ Don’t get me started on the dramatic par- “

Xu Weilong cuts her off

” Sun Rei bed now!”

Sun Rei pouts her lips, and pulls her sheets over herself

“ Good night child “

” Good night to you too mom “ said Sun Rei

The Next Morning \~

“ Should we tell her?”

” No, she’s going to panic and her heart can’t take that....we can’t lose two on the same day “

“ Then what should we do? “

Sun Rei opens eyes from hearing voices which woke her up from her sleep. She sits up as she rubs her eyes.

“ Sshh she’s awake, quiet “ said one voice

” I hope she didn’t hear anything “ said another voice

When Sun Rei got a clear vision of her surroundings she noticed two nurses near Xu Weilong’s side. “ What’s going on? “

Sun Rei notices Xu Weilong’s bed was folded up and none of his stuff was to be seen around.

“ Where’s Xu Weilong? “

The two nurses gaved a guilty look, after a moment one of the nurses with short hair spoke up “ I’m sorry Sun Rei...he...” The nurse with short hair looks over to the nurse that was next to her, asking permission to continue. The nurse shook her head and just frowned at her. The short hair nurse looked back at Sun Rei and came close to her side.

“ His family took him to another hospital for better treatment. “

“ That’s a lie, his family doesn’t care about him, none of them ever visits “ Sun Rei wanted answers, there was no way he could’ve left without saying goodbye unless he...

” Did...did he pass on? “ Sun Rei looked at them with tearful eyes.

“ Sun Rei...he’s in a different place now “

” what do you mean? Is he dead? “ Sun Rei’s voice cracks

“ Miss Sun we don’t know much, the officials already came and got his body, most of employees saw blood over him as they carried him out, I don’t think he’s dead, they didn’t cover his body yet-“ the nurse with short hair gasps and covers her mouth, the nurse next to her hits her arm and whispers

“ Yet? Really? “

“ Sorry, it slip...you saw how he looked, there was no way in hell he could’ve survive that “

Sun Rei curls up into the ball and covers her face with her hands, she begins to cry.

“ Oh no no, Miss Sun please calm down, we can’t have you having a heart attack “ The two nurses sat down on her bed as they rub her back to comfort her.

A day passed by and Sun Rei was all alone, lying down in her bed, hoping Xu Weilong was alive. He was like a brother who cared for her along with Sun Chi.

“ This was bond to happen anyway “ she mumbles to herself.

She takes out her phone to read comics again to distract herself. When she was about to turn on her phone, she saw her reflection in the dark mirror, she notice she has not slept yet since the day she heard about Xu Weilong, there was dark circles under eyes from the lack of sleep, her eyes was still red from crying all night. The nurse gave her anxiety pills so she won’t trigger an heart attack. It was time to take another anxiety pill but she was too weak to reach over to her counter. She turns her phone on and heads online to read another romance manhua.

As she was going through the list to find which good manhua to read, she came across a comic called “ About my life “ it was about a girl name Yu Lumi who had a hard life, her mother dies from unknown disease, her best friend betrayed her and stole her boyfriend, even her family betrayed her, she was an embarrassment to the Yu family because she doesn’t have any talents and what’s great about her is that she is just pretty with her blonde hair and blue eyes. She also gets into arranged marriage with the CEO who happens to be the male lead, who’s abusive towards her because she is not the women he wanted to married, which is Yu Mi the eldest sister. She also get framed from hurting Yu mi, everybody hated her and wanted her to die.

“ This comic is going to be shit, they have every romance manhua’s plot into one “ when Sun Rei read the description she realized it’s one of top ten romance manhuas that viewers are reading.

She goes through the comment sections and notice many fans loved this comic

” This comic made me cry, it was worth the read “

” She loved her husband even though he didn’t return that love until the end “

” Best manhuas than any manhuas “

“ Are they for real? “ Sun Rei doesn’t think the comic would be good, so she decided to give it a try.

An an hour later

“ This manga is garbage, waste of time “ she tosses her phone away

“ The female lead is stupid as ****, so naive, why does she have feelings for male lead who treats her like crap, he even raped her. The only good man who treated her right was the model. But nooo she still chose the heartless CEO, do these people have common sense at all? “

Sun Rei plots down on her bed, trying to relax “ Not gonna lie, it did take my mind off Xu Weilong...and I can totally relate to the female lead...wanting love and affection from her family. “

Sun Rei sits up and grabs her phone “ I’ma just skip to the end, what happened that made the viewers cry? “

As Sun Rei skips to the last chapter she begins to read.

3 minutes later

“ Wait..wait wait what? She dies while giving birth?....but she was poison...she never got her happy ending?...nobody came to her funeral? “ Sun Rei’s heart starts to ache

“ The male lead decides to care for her now right after reading her last letter? How is this story good? “ tears suddenly fall down her eyes.

“ Why do the people who gets abandoned die? Where’s their happy ending? Ow! “ Sun Rei instantly holds onto her chest, she started to feel pain.

“ Oh no, don’t tell me it’s my heart...”

The pain in her chest aches so more “ I-I need to calm down “ Sun Rei tries to reach for her pills however she ends up knocking it down, rolling underneath the bed.

“ Oh come on! Ow ow”

Sun Rei tries to inhaled and exhaled to steady her heart. But nothing seems to work, it was like a knife is being stab into her heart.

” M-My chest.....it hurts“ Sun Rei breathes in and out multi times trying whatever she can to endure the pain. She shuts her eyes close, hoping time will move faster so the pain can go away.

It really hurts, am I dying right now? Is this the end? Where would I go? I wished I would go to a better place instead of hell. Hopefully I can able see Xu Weilong again.

Ah! The pain...

I’m sorry Sun Chi for being weak, I let you down.

But wait...I don’t feel pain anymore...but warm inside...why is it warm?

” Miss Yu please wake up, you have school “

Miss Yu? Is that my new roommate?

“ Miss Yu you can not be late to school again “

Sun Rei slowly opens her eyes, she quickly sits up and scans her surroundings, she finds herself in an unfamiliar room. “ Where am I? “ asked Sun Rei

A woman standing next to her who’s dressed in a maid uniform puts her hand over Sun Rei’s forehead, checking her temperature.

” Why Miss Yu are you not feeling well today? Mmhh...You seem fine. It’s your room that you are in. Now get up, Don’t want to be late like last time “.

Sun Rei was so confuse

Am I dreaming? Is this where we all go when we die?

“ Yu Lumi hurry up, everyone is starting to eat breakfast without you “ said a voice which sounded like a man that was coming outside from the room.

Did he say Yu Lumi? Oh no...don’t tell me I have reborn into “ About my life “ ......out of all the romance mangas why this one? How is this a better place?
