The Cursed Bloodline
The Scar of Young Master Hoshi

Hotaru's eyes started to blink, slowly she opened her eyes faintly. Blue eyes as beautiful as the ocean, have now opened.

Hotaru was treated in one of the rooms of the castle which was made into a treatment room, in one corner of the castle is spacious. He looked weak, with an infusion in his hand, as well as various pacemaker control devices that sounded slowly.

Hotaru saw the figure of her secretary, who had been standing with her hands clenched in her chest. Tsuyu, the long blonde haired girl unceasingly stared at Hotaru with worry.

"You're aware of Hotaru, are you okay? " tsuyu's mouth shook violently, even the spoken word did not sound clear. Worry devours all the energy in the body

Hotaru did not answer the question of the girl beside her, instead worrying about the meeting earlier "How was the meeting?"

" I heard, the Elder approved of the Sora Medical Team to handle your surgery" Tusyu said as she tried to reorganize her thoughts. Although he was a little disappointed with Hotaru's response

"Thank God! Maybe with this illness of mine, I can at least bring unconditional peace " Hotaru said with a soft smile. Now he looks out the balcony showing a beautiful view of the blue sea. Tsuyu who metheard Hotaru's speech was about to reply to the man's stupid words, but he did not do it. He knew, no matter how worried he was, Hotaru would never take him more

"Do you trust Ms. Mirai?"

Hoyaru just smiled knot. Somehow the name Mirai made him so curious about the figure of the owner of the name

"I could see the constancy in his eyes, I saw the image of his lonely self emanating, just like me" Tsuyu was silent for a moment. He also expressed concern about the decision that Hotaru took

"But if it fails, not only Ms. Mirai will be executed by Hoshi's side, but war will break out. Of course I don't want that to happen, much less hurt your safety, Hotaru"

"Sometimes, in a way, you have to trust others more than yourself. I won't die that easily, I still owe someone an apology, which I trust more than myself

You don't have to worry, Tsuyu" said Hotaru

......................

In the hallway of the Castle towards Hotaru's room, Mirai and Shiyuu walked in tandem. While discussing some things concerning the operation that Hotaru will go through

"Mirai, I have to meet with Hoshi's medical team, related to Mr. Hotaru's surgery preparation. You alone met him" Shiyuu said

"Alright Captain Shiyuu, I trust you all"

Mirai walks to Hotaru's treatment room. Hoshi Castle is so spacious that it takes time to walk to the other side of the castle. From a distance, Mirai sees a blonde girl coming out of Hotaru's room, she is Tsuyu

Tsuyu looked down, showing her courtesy to meet Mirai, as well as Mirai

"Is Hotaru conscious, Miss. Tsuy? " Tanya Mirai

"Already, Ms. Mirai. You can meet him. "

Mirai smiled softly, and he entered Hotaru's room "Well, I'll go check on her"

Mirai walked towards the door, when she was about to open it Tsuyu called out to her

"Nn. Mirai.... I beg you for help, save my friend Hotaru! " say her while bowing. Mirai who saw Tsuyu was so worried about Hotaru tried to convince her

" absolutely. His doctor..... I will spend all my strength to heal him. Trust me, Ms. Tsuy! "

Tsuyu also flashed her smile back, with her teary eyes she nodded her head

"Of course, I trust Hotaru to you, Miss. The mirai! "

......................

Mirai entered the spacious bedroom, a room that was conjured into a treatment room. However, it does not leave the impression of luxury with complete facilities for No. 1 people in the country of Hoshi. Hotaru who had been sitting on a wheelchair, was looking at the blue sea in front of her. Mirai walked towards Hotaru, while checking some medical records in her hands

"How are you doing Hotaru, do you still feel pain in your chest? "mirai's mouth breaks Hotaru's daydream

Hotaru turned her head towards the voice, she smiled at Mirai

" I'm fine "Now the focus is back towards the vast ocean that stretches in front of him "Isn't the sea very blue Mirai?"

"Indeed why? The sea does look blue all the time" Hotaru smiled softly, looking straight ahead with blank eyes

"Why, I'm so envious of seeing the Mirai Sea. It will go on a stormy rampage and calm when the weather is clear. There's nothing the sea hides"

Mirai chuckled, with a sarcastic tone she replied to Hotaru

"If I were you, would I still be jealous of the world? I'll even dance all day. Even what is called your 'house' for example" Mirai stared at the magnificent room around her. A home? Just be right! This kind of grander box cannot be called a house

"Right, I even gave up my legs for everything I have now" Hotaru said as she continued to look at the sea in front of her. Mirai's face turned confused, what did Hotaru mean?

"What do you mean, isn't she the sister you hate, she made you like this? "

However Hotaru did not respond to the question Mirai asked, she let out a long sigh while turning her wheelchair upside down

" Huh! The weather outside looked bright, I was even tired of the atmosphere in this room" Hotaru said

"Mirai. Would you take me for a walk? I'm asking you for a favor.....

If it was my doctor who invited me, people wouldn't comment" Hotaru's plea with a glimmer of my eyes. Mirai could not refuse, he was willing to take Hotaru for a walk

"Well! A Young Master is always a hassle, alright." said Mirai.

......................

Mirai pushes Hotaru's wheelchair, they take a walk on the beach. Crossing a wooden pier that leads to the ocean. The view of the place is very extraordinary, Hoshi castle looks very magnificent, a sturdy building stands at the height of the island. Sebrang sea, clearly visible city of Hoshi dense, indeed the place is an island separated by the sea. But the distance is not so far away that it can be connected to a magnificent bridge, which is visible on their left side.

Mirai and Hotaru were busy with their respective thoughts. However Hotaru decided to start a conversation with Mirai

"Isn't that funny. The Hoshi State, which is one of the Great Countries, has a weak leader like me. Even now I am dying. The leader who should protect his country, not even able to protect his own body" said Hotaru ririh

Mirai stopped her steps, now they were at the end of the wooden dock. The beach breeze blew gently, making Mirai's long hair dance in the wind. His gaze was now fixed on the high sea in front of him

"I told you, I'll save you. And also you are not at all weak Hotaru! " He looked at the man sitting in front of him

"You are not weak, it is your love for your people. Make your people feel they can count on you. The leader may have to have the power to dispel enemies that come. But behind it all, the dreamer exists to protect the people he loves.

People who take refuge behind you, you make sure they live peacefully without knowing the name of war.

All that you do, even in your condition. You're still on the mission of Fuu village, solely to keep that peace"

Hearing Mirai's words, Hotaru felt a support fill her again. While looking at the girl standing beside him, Hotaru smiled softly

"Sometimes you remind me of my brother Mirai. It looked cold, but deep inside. He is a brother who loves his sister very much and is willing to sacrifice anything for me, he is a figure who always encourages me"

Mirai only fell silent, she chose to listen to Hotaru, but there was one thing that stuck in her heart. About the story behind the young Hoshi brothers.

"Don't people look at your brother from a different side? " Hotaru understood why Mirai was so curious, he decided to tell his story to the girl standing next to him.

" If you don't mind, will you listen to my story Mirai? " She said Hotaru with a smile

" absolutely. Rather than being told to give advice, I prefer to be a good listener" Mirai said softly. Hotaru began to spread her gaze. Staring at the high seas, and began to tell his life story to Mirau

"This story, not even the people of Hoshi knew it. But, I don't know why I even want to tell you! "

Mirai was silent for a moment. He realized Hotaru also had a scar on her heart. A scar that will never close or heal on its own

Even... for people who have everything like Hotaru...... There was a story of the past that made holes and wounds that imprinted on his heart..........

Physical wounds are easy to heal, but not for heart wounds.

Sometimes the scars of your heart, want you to hide deep in your soul.....
