MELODY MUSKETEERS (M911 & TTM)
083. THE VAMPIRE'S ANGER

Aramis and Anna are in Anna's room being treated. Time's already showing at nine o'clock tonight. Anna could see Aramis' sadness from her face.

"You okay, Ars?" Anna asked who was lying in the hospital bed. "Come here." Anna sat up.

Aramis who was originally sitting in a chair approached Anna. Anna hugged him. The girl knows how sad Aramis is right now, after what happened to her now the young man's twin is still in a critical period.

"What if Ato can't survive, Anna?" Aramis asked with a trembling voice in Anna's embrace. "Why did this happen to us? Though you just realized, now even Ato who experienced it. I have to how to keep her safe, Anna?"

"Just believe he'll survive." Anna rubbed the back of the young man she loved. "Ars, in this week I'm going to have surgery."

Aramis took off her embrace and looked at Anna, herself surprised to hear the girl's words.

"Why this week? Next week I'm going to pass the exam. How'this?"

"Uncle Ron said that if you have to have surgery soon because it's getting spread, he's afraid it's going to spread to other organs." Answer Anna. "I'll go alone, Ars. You should be here to accompany Ato, he needs you more. You are his twin, your support is much needed by him."

Aramis looked extremely chaotic, she was seen holding back her tears as confusion engulfed her at this moment. On the one hand he desperately wants to go with Anna to always be on the side of the girl he loves so much but on the other hand his twin still lies in a coma in critical times, next week, he will also have to take the graduation exam.

"You don't need to be confused. I'll be fine. Ato needs you more..."

"No, I'll be with you. I'll go with you. I'm all you have right now." Aramis answered holding back her tears from coming out.

Anna held Aramis face tightly.

"Listen to Ars, you have to take the exam and pass with good grades. You also have to go to art school. I want you to listen to my words."

"No, Anna. I'll come with you. I don't want us to be apart anymore." Aramis started to shed her tears. "When I see you lying down I don't feel strong especially if I have to part with you."

"You underestimated me, Ars." Anna wiped away Aramis' tears that had soaked her cheeks. "I'll show you how much stronger I am than the three of you. I'll heal and see you again. I'll come to you and fuck you even worse. At that time I will work you out so that you will not be able to resist your annoyance and cry until your eyes like shrimp eyes like before."

...***...

Tasya, who was in her room, opened the gift box that Athos was carrying when the stabbing took place. A pink dress of her favorite color is in the box. Tasya took the handwritten letter from Athos inside the box.

Will this be my last gift?

Tasya cried reading the message. He was very sad about what happened to the young man he loved so much. Athos's critical state caused him to continue crying without being able to stop his tears.

"Ato, why do you have to go through all this?" Tangis Tasya hugged Athos' gown.

...***...

"You okay?" Prothos asked Melody who was still lying in bed after fainting. "You haven't eaten, Melo. Brother get me some food?" Ask Prothos.

Melody shook her head, the girl regained her tears. Prothus could only hug his sister.

"Sister is just as sad as you are, but Ato would want us not to keep crying, it would be the same if we are not sure of the struggle." Prothos. "Don't cry anymore." Prothos wiped Melody's tears.

Niko goes into Melody's room. It made Melody surprised because she thought that Niko had come home because it had been a few hours since she was unconscious.

"Son't get you any food." Prothos said after that walk out leaving Melody with Niko.

"Do you mind if I'm here?" Tanya Niko sat on the chair Prothos was sitting on. "I can't comfort you with nice words but I just don't want you to continue to grieve."

Melody raised her head and looked at Niko. Melody recalled Niko's words when Niko's knife-pierced left hand hurt again.

"How's your hand? Sorry, I forgot about that. You should check it out immediately."

"No, necessary. It's not important than your sadness. I'll be here with you." Niko answered with a fixed look at Melody. "Do you mind?"

"Go home Niko, you need to rest. Brother Oto will look after me here. I don't want to bother you." Melody.

Niko fell silent in disappointment with Melody's words. She wanted Melody to say that she would accompany her at a time like this, even Melody's words that mentioned not wanting to bother him made her feel that it wasn't her that the girl needed in this condition.

"Alright, your brother's here, I don't have to worry. Tomorrow I'll come here again to see you."

Niko immediately got up to her feet and walked out leaving Melody alone.

Melody lay down in sadness remembering her brother who was still lying in a critical moment right now. He could not help his sadness, how could he not be sad about everything that happened? He even saw the incident when his brother was stabbed. That freaked him out.

"You okay, Melon?"

Melody turned to the presence of Lion who opened the door of the room, and walked in. Melody immediately got up from a lying position and sat down, yet the girl became crying sobbing unable to contain her current sadness.

"Don't cry, your brother will be healed, you have to be sure of him. He's such a terrible person, he won't lose to any of this." Lion who is still standing.

But Melody still continued to cry and was unable to contain her sadness. Lion immediately approached Melody and held Melody to lean against her chest, hugging her.

"You're so whiny, and troublesome." Lion muttered Melody's head. "Well, you may cry, no one will be able to endure his sorrow. I'm sorry I couldn't do anything to prevent what would happen to your sister."

Melody was still sobbing in Lion's chest, even the girl gripped the back of the Lion's shirt to endure her sadness.

But who would have thought that it turns out Niko was behind a door that was not tightly closed. The young man saw how Lion comforted Melody, the girl he was about to marry and how Melody easily vented her sorrow at Lion. It's something he can't do or get from Melody. It made her become sad and riled up about her position for the girl.

Niko turned her back to get away from that place. She did not want to see him for longer because she was afraid that he would become resentful of Lion, whom she already deeply regarded as a brother. However he was surprised when he saw Prothos standing not far behind him.

There was nothing Niko wanted to say at the moment so she would rather step away past Prothos who knew what was happening.

"They've been together a long time so they're used to understanding each other." Speak Prothos to Niko.

Niko stopped her steps and turned to look at Prothos. For a moment he looked at Prothos with a gaze that turned sharp then walked over to him.

"What are you talking about? I don't have a problem with anything. We're still getting married, nothing will stop me from marrying your sister." Niko said with a skeptical smile. "No one will be able to, be it you, or anyone else who gets in my way!!"

After saying so Niko walked away. Prothos noticed a significant change in expression from Niko, it made him begin to understand about the young man who was famous for not having that fear.

"Nobody can stop you..." Prothos murmured with a sarcastic smile. "You'll stop it yourself!!"
