231 Surfacing of fear

Hiro had a stupefied look on his face while his mother had a worried look on her face as if she was on the verge of crying.

And as he finished his words, his mother's moist eyes could no longer hold back her tears as it burst forth like collected water bursting from a dam after it's collapse.

With eyes full of tears, she threw herself in Hiro's arms and embraced him tightly.

Although she threw herself on his arms, she was careful enough not to hurt him.

For some instance, Hiro was dumbfounded by her sudden reaction. He couldn't understand why she was acting like this.

"Finally.... you woke up. Sob!! Sob!! I... I... I... Was so worried.... About you.... Sob!! Sob!!" She wept like a child as she expressed her concerns while shuddering.

Only then did Hiro realised how much trouble he had caused her. While he was sleeping soundly, each and every moment she was suffocating from his worry.
