It was Jackson’s first time seeing that look on Zinnia’s face. She looked serious now, totally different from the careless vibe she always gave off.

She really seemed to love medicine.

Yannis didn’t expect much. He had seen way too many doctors over the years, and none of them helped. But seeing how focused Zinnia looked, he didn’t want to crush her hopes. He was already used to disappointment.

Perry sat nearby, watching as Zinnia checked Yannis’s pulse.

“Did something really bad happen to you before?” Zinnia frowned as she asked.

Yannis wasn’t just losing sleep-he couldn’t sleep at all, night after night. His body was totally worn out, and his mind was stretched thin. If it went on like this, one day his body might just give out.

It could leave permanent damage. If it got bad enough, he might even end up with brain damage and never wake up again.

Yannis’s raised brows dropped a little. “I had an accident when I was a kid,” he said. He didn’t deny it, but he didn’t go into details either.

“Wear this for now. You really need sleep. If you keep going like this, your body won’t be able to take it,” Zinnia said.

She didn’t press him—she knew every patient had their own privacy. She turned and rummaged through her small backpack, then pulled out a little herbal pouch and handed it to him.

“Put it under your pillow. Don’t think about anything,” she said seriously.

“Okay. Thanks, Zinnia,” Yannis said.

The moment she took out the pouch, he smelled that calming herbal scent. It was similar to Jackson’s pouch but stronger.

The smell made him feel comfortable. Maybe it was just because he was in a good mood today, but his aching, tired head finally felt a bit lighter.

Yannis accepted the pouch. Even if it didn’t work, he wasn’t going to turn down Zinnia’s kindness.

Still, he didn’t really believe a herbal pouch could fix his insomnia. Every time he thought about the past, all he saw was blood. Every time he closed his eyes, those pale, lifeless faces
