She is as good as my mother; I feel comfortable.

After I put my shoes back on, I said goodbye.

"Thank you for everything; I will reply someday. "

"Don't overthink; I'm pleased if there is someone who can accept all my kindness. Don't forget to stop by here often; our house will always be open to you, Rainier. "

"Yes, thank you very much. I'm pleased; then I'll excuse myself first. "

"Be careful on the road, Rainier. "

When I saw Herman's mother waving at me, I felt a little sad to leave. However, I must quickly explain the situation that happened to me.

A few moments passed until I arrived at the house I had rented. Because I brought the food given by the Herman family, I can bring good news among the bad news that I carry with me.

After I opened the door, I did what I usually do.

"I am a home mom. "

"Welcome, Nier. "

I heard my mother's voice from far away. After I took off my shoes, I rushed to meet her.

When I saw it, it seemed that mother was embroidering a scarf. She did it meticulously. Mom looks enjoy doing that.

"I brought my mother a gift. "

"Thank you, Nier; at least I will be relieved if you have good luck like this. "

"I don't think so; I'll get the plate first. "

Then, I walked towards the kitchen while moving all the food I had brought. When I opened the parcel given by Herman's mother, why were there so many foodstuffs? Good canned fruit and meat as well as some crusty bread. No wonder when I carry it feels a little heavy.

After I separated the raw and cooked food, I took it to where my mother was.

 "Here, ma'am, eat it. I'm already full because I ate first. "

"ara, if you have eaten. That means it must be a gift from your friend Herman. "

"As you said, he was the one who gave me all these things. "

"It seems that you two are good friends, take good care of this friendship, Nier. "

"I always try, even though in reality I only always bother him. "

"I think Herman will be sad if you say that. "

I thought of something when I heard those words.

"He always says that; I wonder why he keeps trying to be friends with me. "

"Nier, there are times when you should know. That everything in this world just happens; not all relationships are created for the same purpose. So, you have to accept all the kindness that other people give you."

"I'll give it a try, though I'm not sure I can. "

"When you talk like that, you look like your father. You did inherit that trait. "

Mother laughed a little when she said that.

"At least, I hope mom doesn't feel sad if I unconsciously act like dad without realizing it. "

"Kora, don't say things like that. Of course, I will not be sad; in fact, I will love you even more because he always lives inside you. "

This feeling is indeed very soothing; seeing mom smile is something that makes me happy.

"Forgive me. "

However, mother laughed again when I said that.

"Why are you so worried? I won't be angry just because of that. "

"Oh, I see. "

"You're tired. take a shower first so that your body is a little fresh. "

"yes. "

I immediately stood up and went to take a shower.

***

Suddenly, I felt excruciating pain. I slowly tried to open my eyes.

The vision I saw was something vague. However, I feel I can breathe well; my whole body is numb. For a moment, I couldn't move my body.

Then, I started to see well.

"Where am I? What happened."

I suddenly remembered something that had happened to me before.

"This is a lie; why am I still alive. I should be dead. "

Right after I said that I started to be able to move my body again.

Then, I directly touched my forehead, which was pierced by arrows.

"It's gone; there's not even a scar. "

This is weird, meaning what I talked about with that strange light happened.

Better, I should know about what happened to me.

When I looked at the condition of the rest of my body, all the wounds I received disappeared. Even so, there were quite a number of my clothes torn. It seems that a powerful sea wave hit me.

When I looked around me, there was only an empty beach. Is this on another island?

My body is getting cold; it seems I have to get out of here. It could be; the pursuers were looking for me all the way here.

When I tried to stand up, I had a little trouble doing it. My stomach just keeps rumbling.

"I'm starving. "

Then, I again felt pain in my left arm.

"Even though there are no injuries, the effects of the pain are still felt. It couldn't be helped, but still living after going through something like that already made me happy. "

Then, I strolled while continuing to hold my left arm with my right hand as a support.

I was exhausted; luckily, I didn't die from drowning. But, bobbing around for quite some time affected my body.

I'd better find shelter. Healing myself is my main goal right now.

My legs hurt, but I had to endure because I was given a chance for revenge.

Therefore, I can't complain.

At this time, I walked to enter the trees. At least this way, I can stay away from the crowd.

From a distance, I could see smoke rising high. I think there's been fighting in that area. I have to go the other way immediately.

But, unfortunately for me. I began to hear the troop's footsteps and the screech of horses.

Are they part of the squad that's after me? I must hide immediately in case I get caught again. Surely this will be the end of my life.

Their voices were getting closer; it seemed I had no time to hide. Why should it be like this?

In one swift movement, someone covered my mouth with her hand. Then she dragged me into the bushes.

Then, the group of troops started walking towards our hideout.

"Tch, we got nothing. I thought there were some villagers who ran here. "

A man's voice continued to complain.

"Looks like today is not our lucky day, but we can still loot the treasures and the women in the village. "

"You're right, we better get back soon, or Kingdom Archana's army will catch up with us while we relax like this. "

"It can be troublesome if that happens; let's go back. "

The group of men began to turn around and immediately left this place.

After waiting for a while, my mouth was released by the person who dragged me into the bushes.

When I saw her, she seemed to be quite a strong woman. There were several daggers she carried.

"I think they've gone far enough; you don't have to worry. "

The woman started talking to me.

"you. "

"Ah, I'm not a member of them. I just happened to be here. "

"I think so. "

However, the pain in my hand started to return.

"Are you hurt? "

"This is a deep wound; I think I need your help. "

However, suddenly my consciousness began to disappear. My vision began to darken; then, I fell just like that.

***

After I finished showering, I went back to see my mother. She seems to be busy watching tv.

"Mother, have you eaten it? "

"Yeah, I ate some of it. It tasted delicious. "

"Why only a little should be spent all. They brought me the food because it was meant for you. "

"Don't be so serious, Nier, even though this is aimed at me. But, I want to enjoy it with my son. So, let's eat together."

"Oh my gosh, why are you always like this. "

"Come here, sit with mother. "

"okay. "

Then I sat next to my mother.

When I looked at her closely, it seemed that she was getting thinner. I have to do something about her condition; if it continues, I will only make mother suffer more.

"Nier, why are you restless like this? "

"No, I was just thinking about something else. "

Then, I took the existing dry bread.

"Does your body feel better? "

"I'm in good health; that should be my question. Do you feel pain? is there any part that hurts? "

However, mom just looked at me with the smile she always showed.

"I'm fine, don't worry. "

"Please don't lie to me; I realized that mother's body is getting thinner. It looks like I didn't give you good nutrition. If it continues like this, I'm afraid that Mother will fall ill again. "

I couldn't contain my feelings when I saw her state.

However, my mother hugged me instead.

"Things like this are nothing; mother would be sad if Nier was depressed because of me. Therefore, don't worry too much. The mother's condition is fine. "

"A mother is not lying, right?."

"Of course not; if mom lies, it only hurts your feelings. "

"Then I believe what you say. "

After that, my mother let me go.

"Then, how are you today. Are you happy? "

"I keep trying, but it's a little hard to do. But I will not disappoint my mother. "

"Looks like I have to..."

However, I cut him off.

"Please don't say to go to other relatives, they will not help us. They will only vent their stress on the mother. "

"Nier, but at this rate. "

"I will do something, so please don't say to leave my side. Only mother is the spirit of my life at this time. "

I tried to hold back my tears from falling.

"You are indeed a good child; I feel guilty for not giving you the happiness you should get. "

"What mom said, being born by you alone has become my happiness. This life is priceless and then, coupled with my mother's love, keeps me going through my difficult days. "
