Two glows of light, like the rising sun, shone brightly before Pannis's eyes.
As Pannis reached out to brush Nellie's long hair aside and touched her cheek, Nellie's drooped head did not lift, but her half-open, half-closed eyes suddenly flared open. Her eyelids flipped back, and her gaze shot through the gaps in her hair straight at Pannis's face. The originally dull eyes lit up with two intense gleams. The empty look in her eyes instantly became sharp and filled with a murderous aura, convincing Pannis beyond doubt that she might never lose consciousness and become a lifeless shell.
Time seemed to suddenly stand still, and both maintained their original stance, frozen for an instant as if shocked by this turn of events. However, it was only for a moment before Pannis reacted, rolling his eyes skyward and moaning, "Oh, no, it shouldn't have been like this."
