The Canvass and The BallContinuation.....................................................Fourth page for today's update...................No matter what they say.....
Suddenly Minho jerks when…
“Ken…Hey…Ken…
you are spacing out again…hey!”
“huh…uuhhh… am sorry…
I remembered someone…”
“Oh…a friend…?”
“Yeah…a friend who probably will forget me once he leaves…”
“Why…
is she leaving you behind…?”
“Oh… a He…”
“Oh…sorry…
(rubs Minho’s costume)
Ooohh…
Don’t even think about that…
Am pretty sure, when he comes back, he will remember you…
(smiles sweetly)
You are so sweet and generous…”
“(blushes) Oh… thank you…
(thinks, “I will forever remember this moment…” then says)
I think we need to head home…
where do you live…?”
Key has suddenly became mute unable to respond as he is so alienated by the whole surrounding.
He twirls both of his forefingers that Minho notices it and says…
“What are you doing, are your fingers like a tool to locate your house…?”
Key acting cool replies…
“Aha…
(points blindly his home location)
My place is over there!”
Minho laughs chuckles as he knows Key gets it wrong but agrees anyway so he can spends more quality time with him.
“Okay… let’s go then…”
“(on hesitating voice agrees)
aahhh…hhhmm…okay… I think…
(grabs Minho’s left hand) Let’s go…
(swings arms) Did you have a good time tagging me along…?”
“I think… yes… because you are so funny…”
After few minutes of walking, Key fidgets face moving left and right trying to figure out the direction to his house that Minho notices keeps his giggles and composes asking…
“Something wrong…?”
“I could not see any view of our house paved barrier…
I think we went to a wrong direction…
(looks at Minho) hhhmm…
Am sorry, but I do not know how to get back …
(goes on and on) but don’t worry,
I can call my hyungs for the direction just that I did not bring
my phone perhaps a phone booth or…
you…might…have…a…phone…
with you?”
“(moves his head sideways)
No…
I did not also bring my phone…”
“Ooohh…
perhaps, we can go back to one of those
previous houses we've been to
and request if we can possibly use their phone,
what do you think?”
“Good suggestion but I know this whole place…
describe to me your place…”
Key wheezes amazed at Minho’s statement and thanks to the latter’s info that Key manages to avert the worst disaster, but how to describe his place seems to be more unnerving cause he does not have any idea how his residence look like from the outside.
Most of his time is spent contained inside their house specifically his room. And though, he goes out of their estate on school days; he never bothered to just look at his surroundings.
“Eeerr…
I remember passing from another small gate.
Aasshh... because the distance from our second gate
to the main gate is like more than a kilometer.
Just walking the distance is so tiring…
so that, one of my hyungs showed me a short cut how to go out…”
“Do you remember how your place looks like…?”
“Huge giant wall…
another huge wall…wall…huge…
well…huge gate too…from probably…
(points afar) there to…
(points to another far distance) there…
(shrugs) I dunno why I have a home like that…
(turns to Minho) hard no?”
“(snaps his fingers – pretending)
Oh… the largest place here in the entire city…
I heard from my friends, it is called…
Kim’s Swan Estate!”
“(flinches) What…?
Kim’s Swan Estate?!
Why…called like that?!”
“(nods) Yeah…
according to one of the families that visited the place.
The owner called it Swan dedicated to his son,
Kim Key Kibum… but, sorry…
I dunno the whole story…”
“(gasps) yeah… that is my …
(grasps Minho’s hands) So you know?”
“(nods) Yeah… Of course, I know. Hhhmmm…
(tugs Key’s hands) Making me think, I wonder
how your treats look like in your place…”
“(eyes widens) We have so many and all of them
are just lying there no one dares to visit our place…
(sighs) so it is boring…”
“(laughs) Of course, dummy…
your house is so…so… very big…”
“(acts nonchalant about it)
I don’t feel that so delighted about it though…”
