Keira opened her eyes in shock and saw Keeras face, rendered excessively pale by pain.
The two couldnt speak in the water.
Yet, there was a resolute expression in Keeras fragile look.
It was only at this moment that Keira finally realized Keera had swum up earlier to catch her breath!
After grabbing her, Keera continued to swim upward!
But Keera was somewhat weak.
After swimming for a while, she realized that she
simply couldnt reach the surface while dragging Keira
with her

Her sister had turned back for her, and that was
already enough!
She struggled to wave her hands in the water, signaling
to Keera.
I save,
Get yourself up!
However, Keera shook her head and pointed upward

with her maimed hand. If we leave, we leave together!
Keiras eyes reddened slightly.
She wanted to gesture something more, but she had already exhausted all her strength helping both of them escape from the ship, so she could only watch as Keera stubbornly pulled her hand, bit by bit, toward
the surface of the water
Splash!
Both of their heads emerged.
Keira gasped for air, but she felt heavy, as though she was still sinking.
She was slipping in and out of consciousness.
All she could see around her was water, boundless and endless, and she couldnt see the shore anywhere as she bobbed up and down in the water.
She managed to discern that this must be the sea near Oceanion, only they were already very, very far away
In her daze, she saw Keera drag her steadily to the
side.

The weakness brought on by anemia, along with the feeling of total exhaustion, made everything before Keira darken as if her vision was blurring.
It sounded like there was water in her ears too, and
there was nothing but a buzzing noise
Keira, how are you holding up? Keep it together! You cant let anything happen to you!
Keeras voice faintly flitted in and out of her ears.
Keira, dont die, its all my fault! I shouldnt have come
to see you I brought those people
Keera sobbed, her heavy breathing was right beside
Keiras ear.
You cant die! I cant let you die!
eira could feel Keeras strength waning. As she sank into the water again only to be pushed up by Keera, Keira heard her voice. Keira, look, theres a plank of wood over there. We might be saved!
Keira couldnt see the plank clearly.
Her vision was darkening.
The last shred of reason kept her consciousness clear.

She felt herself being pushed onto a wooden plank in the water by Keera, time and again
She wanted to tell her not to worry about her anymore, for Keera to climb up herself, as she could feel that Keera had no strength left!
But she didnt have the strength to open her mouth.
She wanted to push Keera away, but couldnt even muster the energy to lift her fingers
Keera never gave up.
Again and again, she pushed her onto the wooden plank, which kept slipping away from underneath her
Not knowing how long it took, Keira only felt as if it had been a long as a century, yet it also seemed like
only a

g her head to the side, she could see the joy on as face. She wanted to reach out to pull Keera up but she was utterly immobile.
With a sigh of relief, Keera appeared to let go, but she no longer had the strength to climb un herself.

A hint of sorrow flashed in her eyes.
Take good care of little Amy
Leaving behind only these words, Keera suddenly sank.
Keira wanted to save her, but she couldnt muster any strength at all!
Sister!
She watched helplessly as Keera sank below the waters surface. Inside, she was struggling, raging, wanting to do something, but what met her was a vast expanse of darkness:
A drop of tear rolled down her cheek.
Floating on the surface of the water, unable to
eplenish her iron levels in time, she would be greeted y shock and death.
Keiras eyes snapped open.
Just a second ago, she had been floating on the water, but now she found herself lying on a soft, large bed.
It seemed like only the blink of an eye had passed

between then and now.
Only
Keira frowned as she looked around the room.
The room had a pastoral feel to it, with a bedspread of small, scattered flowers, and it was bright. When she turned her head, however, she saw a little girl lying
next to her.
The girl seemed to sense something and slowly opened her eyes.
Upon seeing Keira, the little one burst into tears.
Mommy, Mommy, youre awake! Youre not dead! You didnt abandon Amy!
Amy
Keira was htly taken aback; wasnt this Keeras daug
as still stunned, the little one had already out of bed and, barefoot, ran into the living After a while, she came back, trotting with a s of water in hand, which she offered to Keira.
Mommy, drink some water. If you drink water, does that mean you wont leave Amy?

The childs voice weighed heavily on Keiras heart.
She moved her fingers and found she had regained some strength; she slowly sat up, surveying her surroundings.
Was this Keeras home?
Was she being mistaken for Keera?
She asked, Amy, how long have I been asleep? Little Amy answered, Mommy, youve been asleep for two days. You were found in the swimming pool. You almost died. A kind uncle took you to the hospital. Daddy said you wouldnt die. He told you to come home
Keira frowned.

looked down at her hand and noticed the mark of an IV injection.
After moving her body, she felt strength returning, indicating someone had indeed replenished her iron in

Suddenly, Keira recalled that after being pushed onto the plank by Keera, she seemed to have seen a boat approaching
Since she was rescued, then surely Keera was rescued as well, right?
She looked around, trying to find her phone to call Oceanion
Before she could locate her phone, the door was pushed open, and a man in his mid-twenties strode in.
He had a somewhat feminine appearance and looked at Keira with eyes full of mockery and disdain.
Amy hid behind Keira and whispered softly, Daddy.
This man was Keeras husband?

The man scoffed. She isnt dead yet, is she?
Then, looking outside, he called, Mom, come here and help her pack some clothes!
Following his words, a middle-aged woman walked in grumbling, Such bad luck. Why do I have to pack for her? Cant she do it herself?
This was Keeras mother-in-law.
She turned directly to the man. Howard, you spoil her too much!
The man named Howard laughed. Mom, were in a hurry, right? Lets not delay our departure!
Howards mother frowned. Where are we rushing off to so urgently?
oward smiled. I just heard about something. Its said that the head of the Horton family in Oceanion, Lewis Hortons wife, has died. Were going to attend her funeral. Itll be a good opportunity to meet some influential people!
Upon hearing this, Keiras pupils contracted sharply!
She looked at Howard in disbelief, asking
subconsciously. Who did you sav?!
