@Pure_Sky_Poetry Things they could have had but weren't given the chance. The life they could have given their son.
"I wish we could have raised him... He was so beautiful..."
@Pure_Sky_Poetry "I'm not sure," she admits, holding onto him. "I would assume Huan Hua, but I've been recovering at Zhao Hua."
She sighs, clinging tightly to his torso in his hold as she feels her chest ache with the things they've lost. +
@Pure_Sky_Poetry โi was trying... but i was in labor." she looks down, arms wrapped around her waist.
โi couldn't get there. I tried, but... I was poisoned.โ h
@Pure_Sky_Poetry โbut I do! it's my fault; I couldn't make it in time...โ still, she closes her eyes, leaning into his hand cupping her cheek, and swallows down the anguish causing her tears. with a small laugh, she says, โyou're still the dramatic one.โ
@Pure_Sky_Poetry โNo,โ she breathes, the realization devastating. He was supposed to escape, and she tried but she couldn't get there. Couldn't save both him and their child.
โIโ I should have been there, I'm sorry,โ she says, tears filling her eyes. โI'm soโ I'm so sorry, Tianlang-jun...โ
@Whitelotusbing โstop, baobei,โ she says, smiling softly at her baby boy all grown up. โi would do it all over again, if i had to. i would have done anything to keep you safe. i was trying to make it to save your father too, but i failed... i failed you both...โ
@Whitelotusbing โyou weren't born yet, baobei,โ she lets out a soft laugh, reaching up to cradle his cheek in her hand. โhe poisoned me to get rid of you, so i absorbed it myself so it wouldn't hurt you. I'd do it again if I had to.โ
@Whitelotusbing โi was in a coma, baobei. and when i woke up, i had to spend months learning to walk and fight again.โ she doesn't like to remember those first few weeks where she couldn't even lift her legs, so weak.
โit was my shifu. heโโ she shudders. โhe tricked me.โ
@Whitelotusbing โwhy did i leave you?โ she guesses, only to soften considerably, reaching out to him.
โi didn't want to, baby. but i was poisoned. and i... i couldn't wake up. for years.โ
โthirteen, oh heavens...โ su xiyan is much older than she realized, and holds tightly to her daughter's hand as she draws back from the hug to see her face.
โi would love to come for tea.โ
Binghe nodded, letting out a soft whimper when she said how proud she was. "S-She's thirteen... She ages fast, like I did. Though, not as fast... probably because she is only quarter heavenly demon now."
She nodded, gesturing for her to follow. "Come have tea with us, Mama."
She sniffed a few times, remaining in her arms as she snuggled into her mother's arms. She felt like a little girl all over again.
"I have a daughter of my own, Mama... Her name is Xiuying. You'll have to meet her and my husband some time."
Binghe sagged in her Mother's arms, broken sobs leaving her throat.
Tianlang-Jun had told her that her mother was dead, but now here she was.
She wasn't exactly sure how to feel, but what she was feeling wasn't negative in the slightest.
โoh, come here,โ she wraps her daughter up in a hug, tears slipping down her cheeks as she holds tightly, afraid her daughter might disappear before her very eyes. โyou're alive, iโ i didn't failโโ
She stared at Su Xiyan with wide crimson eyes that glistened with tears. Immediately she was reminded of the gentle washerwoman who took her in and she leaned into her touch, whimpering. "Mama... Mama..."
@tearyprotag โi will look forward to meeting him again, then,โ she says, softly. shen qingqiu had been a friend of hers before, along with yue qingyuan, so it would be interesting to see how he is these days. to have found love, oh! she was very happy for him and her son!
