All Chapters of Xiao, the Soulwaker : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Chapter 001It was yet another day for Xiao, exaggerated but it was nothing near to be an extraordinary one. She’s feeling disheartened by this time and isn’t happy for the fact that she’s here again, standing in front of the world. People were around; everyone’s eyes were pointed at her. And yet, she’s feeling empty. She didn’t want to be here although people were really cheering for her.“Xiao Lee! Xiao Lee!”She gazed, looked up for someone; and her heart’s pounding like crazy. She wasn’t supposed to be that nervous. This day was supposed to be an another yet simple day. It wasn’t supposed to make her feel excited.But when her eyes met her father’s everything didn’t seem worthless anymore. Something was glazed upon the damaged cupcake—bloody and dangerous, but tasty and delicious—an image that bypassed her current scenario, making her feel nostalgic abou

Chapter 003“Miss Xiao,” a lady in maid outfit came inside her room after a few knows on the door, “it’s time.”Pursing her lips into thin lines, she turned to face her lamp shade that was placed above the side cabinet. Her eyes landed upon the small glint of gold—the knob of the cabinet.She pulled the knob and slowly, it showed the most precious thing she would never wanted to lose.The birthday gift from her mother. An antique music box. It was given to her when she was still eight. The day when her mother got kicked out of the household. The starting day wherein she no longer anticipated her upcoming birthdays.That time she had no idea what was happening. All she witnessed was a quarrel between her mother and her aunt. A scenario she never would have understood if she hadn’t grew up.“Are you ready, Miss Xiao?”“Well, I am,” Xiao turned to face the maid as soon as

Chapter 005Sighing, Xiao opened her locker when she realized she’s actually on time. She thought she would be late on her class for today. She wasn’t shocked anymore when she saw tons of letters, coloured papers, origamis and even flower petals the moment she opened up the vault’s door. It was flooded with a lot of things that she didn’t even know where they came from. All she knew was, this thing wasn’t new anyway.“Why do these guys always give stuffs? They don’t even know what are my likes and dislikes,” Xiao whispered to herself when she saw a pink floral piece of paper, perhaps another letter she already knew what’s the content even without actually opening it. Most probably, it would give her nothing but cringe.Gosh, it’s not just pink, it’s also very detailed with florals! Xiao screamed inside her mind in horror. It’s the thing she abhorred the most. Just by having the sigh

Chapter 007“Xiao, listen up,” her mother caressed the back of her head, “you must never lose the necklace and the music box, okay? These two are like your life supporter. Without them, you’ll die.”“Mom, what are you saying?”Shuan was silent; she tried her best not to breakdown in front of her daughter but she failed to do so. The little girl was confused, but she started crying also as soon as her mother’s face was full of tears.“I may not be able to see you again, that’s why I’m doing this for a chance to be with you.”“Mom, I don’t understand,” Xiao kept wailing as her loud cries became louder and louder.Shuan just closed her eyes as she hugged her daughter, “Xiao, be a good girl, okay? Especially to your grandfather. I love you so much, my princess.”“I love you, too, Mom. Please don’t leave me.”&ldqu

Chapter 009Xiao woke up wherein she still feels half-asleep. An enigma of her being in a dizzy state and having a dark grey vision made her feel nauseous. She was rubbing her eyes still, feeling the itchiness it offers and the urge of wanting it to be gone in an instant. Although feeling dizzy, she still managed her way up and tried getting away from the bed. As soon as she did, that’s when her head strikes a pain, causing an instant halt for her body as soon as the aching delved deeper. Damn it. A hangover. That’s when some realizations hit up; scenes of certain memory flashed through her eyes; vivid yet evanescent.A small growl escaped from Xiao’s lips while she was caressing the top of her head, messing her hair a little. She winced as the aching dived in once again, causing her to feel triple of the pain than the first one. She kept growling and wincing which made her sit down on the top of the duvet of her bed. She even let out a huge
