White Knight
Description
My dear. My beloved. My life. My everything.
Every part of him, his good side, his bad side. His crooked smile. His tears. His warmth.
I would never forget any of it.
Still, I hoped that there would be more memories to make.
Prompt #1 “To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To see joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget.” Arundhati Roy
Foreword
“I’ll sing for you.” There, Myungsoo opened his mouth, and a quiet tune escaped his lips. He closed his eyes in concentration. I didn’t recognize the song, but I didn’t care. With every word he sang, a cloud of cold air puffed out. With every word he sang, my heart trembled. His lips quivered. A tear slipped out of Myungsoo’s eye. It glistened in the beautiful moonlight. My beloved was trembling. “Why don’t you cry?”
“Because I’m weak.”
“Shouldn’t it be the other way?” Myungsoo let out a quiet laugh, but still, he was shaking. “You’re a lot stronger than I am.”
A/N: Oh. My. Gosh. Can you believe I actually made it to subround 3? Haha, I mean, it's all thanks to myself that I've made it this far (and, of course, the judges who chose me, haha), but it surprises me that I've managed to make it this far...um, well, this story includes my ultimate bias, Kim Myungsoo, who is my white knight. I don't really know what inspired this. I was sitting in the car, coming home from some place the other day, listening to Sunggyu's album, and it was snowing...and then, this hit me. *sigh* As I write this, I am not finished writing it, but it is due the...26th...and yeah. I'm horrible with deadlines, please forgive me.
OH, and also, a song to listen to as you read: 모래시계(Sandglass) - Standing Egg. Ugh, sobs, this song could easily make me cry. I listened to it as I was writing, and I ended up crying. I'm a really big crybaby, so I kind of exaggerate. Haha, anyway, have a wonderful day/night!
