Night Lullaby
Mugunghwa Promise
Myungsoo was coming home late. He had deal with tons of files. Sunggyu, Hoya and even his brother didn’t come to office. He had no heart to made Sungyeol work on all those files alone so he decided help him. He ran up stair and threw his suitcase in the couch. He was really damn tired. He was hungry, but too tired to do anything. He rush to the bathroom and took shower fast. He didn’t give damn to wait for warm water. All he wanted just wash his body and sleep.
So Eun was still in Leo’s room. They had nice day, Leo tag along with her and played happily on campus. She thanked her students who helped her kept eyes on him when she left to teach. So Eun closed the door quietly.
Did Myungsoo oppa come back?
She didn’t need to think cause when she went to bedroom. She saw silhouette on their bed. The lamp was dim. She let out relief sigh. She climbed to their bed and positioned herself beside him. He must have tiring day, she thought. She kissed his forehead and rest.
“I protect him from my hatred. I protect him Jaejoong. Myungyeon is my world, my everything and he took her from me. Do you know how I want let out all my angriness, cursed to him? Hah? Do you know? I avoid him, I ignore him is for his sake. What do you want me to do Jaejoong? What do you want me to do?” His father yelled.
“Sorry… Sorry.. Sorry” So Eun woke after hear sob. She saw Myungsoo was sleep, but she could swear he has nightmare.
“I’m…sor..ry, dad” Sweat on his forehead, he was crying. So Eun shook his shoulder.
“Oppa… Oppa…” Worry written on her face. Myungsoo opened his eyes and taken back.
“Oppa, are you okay?” She asked full of concern. Myungsoo didn’t say anything and looked away. So Eun didn’t know what to do. She didn’t want their fight happen. She still remember how mad Myungsoo after she asked about his father when he called his father on his sleep.
“I will take water for you” She said after a while of silences. Myungsoo grabbed her fist before she climb down their bed.
“Just stay here” He whispered. She obeyed and sat. Myungsoo didn’t look on her face, but he still held her hand. So Eun took deep breath. She closed their distance and shoved his bang from his forehead. Myungsoo didn’t protest so So Eun convinced herself it’s okay. She began to sing.
I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, I’ll never let you go
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said. Don’t leave me here alone
But all that’s dead and gone and passed tonight
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You’ll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I’ll be safe and sound
So Eun touched his face and he leant on. She was continuing sing and Myungsoo’s head was on her lap. He closed his eyes; his breath was slow and steady.
Don’t you dare look out your window, darling
Everything’s on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold onto this lullaby
Even when the music’s gone
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You’ll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I’ll be safe and sound
Myungsoo swear he ever heard this song before, but he didn't really remember all he knows it makes him safe. Myungsoo hold her left hand tightly. So Eun caress his forehead with her other free hand. She sang the lullaby, even she knew Myungsoo was already sleeping, she still sang.
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You’ll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I’ll be safe and sound
“I’ll never leave you alone. I won’t let someone hurt you. I will always by your side. Just close your eyes. Everything is gonna be okay. I love you…..” She kissed his forehead and sang again.
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You’ll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I’ll be safe and sound
