"What happened at that time?” Luhan asked as they entered the small room in which no one was beside the the two of them. His voice was incredibly silent but there was enough seriousness in it to let Hain know that he wanted to know everything that happened. “I... don't know. I haven't been there at the time. The time your brother killed your father, I tried to safe all the others in the palace.

Your father told me that whatever might happen, I should not come back and try to safe as many people as possible.”

That was the truth, Luhan knew that but he couldn't say anything. He walked to the window and crossed his arms. “My mother?” This was a really dangerous topic for both of them since Luhan loved his mother more than anything else and her death had hit her more than everything else. Her death and the death of his little sister. “I... only have seen her corpse.”

Luhan's fingers crawled into his own skin and he took a shaky breath. “I see.” For a moment, it was completely silent between them. “Where have you been, Luhan? Why did you ran away?” Hain dared to ask, though he didn't awaited an answer. The more he was surprised as Luhan actually answered. “Isn't it obvious. I was scared and I knew that my brother would become king. As you said, I am an incredible coward.”

There was not way in taking back the words he had said to Luhan but he didn't want to take them back anyways. “You are and now you are going to take responsibility for your foolish actions? I really can't believe that,” he whispered and Luhan turned around. “I know and I really don't expect you to believe me but you have to know that I am happy that you want to help us.”

Hain smiled, unintentionally, but it disappeared as fast as it came. “There should be someone to look after you, Luhan. It was my job at that time after all, right?”

Right, and those times had been incredibly happy times. “Dan! Lift me up, I want to see the sky!” They wouldn't be able to go back. There was no going back anymore. “Do you remember that time?” Hain suddenly whispered and Luhan looked up. “You always asked me if you would be able to fly, right? I told you could, one day, on the one way or the other.”
