Nightmare
It's 2AM now. L.joe is sleeping on his bed. Outside,it's thunderstorm. Rain are falling hard and a loud noises can be heard from the rooftop. Once in a while,L.joe would toss to left and right. Not that he haven't fall asleep yet. He's having a nightmare. Anyone could tell it. He kept mumbling "Don't! Please don't!It hurt ! Please stop it!", his face show an expression that's hard to tell. He's dreaming the same thing. He dream of his abusive father. His mother died when he was young. After that,his father change dramatically, become abusive and always drunk. His father lose his job and become a person with no path.He is dreaming about one particular event. An event he'll never forget. It was thunderstorm. L.joe is studying in his room. Being a little kid, he study what a kid like his age study. That night, his father burst into his room. L.joe was shocked and his body automatically shaking. "No please don't hurt me,father". L.joe don't want to become his father victim again. "You son of b****. You are useless to me! You should be working and give me money to buy drinks.Instead,you sit here and read book ? you think you smart already? let me tell you, just keep on dreaming." Being a clueless L.joe, he did not understand a word. Without warning,he grab l.joe by his collar and throw him to the floor. A loud groan can be heard. Not long after that, his father start to beat him using a leather belt. Over and over again. No matter how loud l.joe scream, no matter how desperate l.joe begged his father to stop, no one can hear him. No one can stop his father. L.joe was bleeding. ************************Scream can be heard across l.joe room. His body shaking. The trauma that his father gave him, he still couldn't get over it. His tears are threatening to fall. He's about to break down. Plus, the thunderstorm makes him more traumatized. He then remembered about you. He is not strong enough to face it himself. He knew that that's why he called you. You were awaken by a loud thunderstorm. You can feel that your house are shaking because of the thunder. Instantly, you remember about l.joe. 'Is he alright?' , you can't help but to think about him. l.joe is fragile. That's why you need to protect him. You knew about his trauma. You knew very well. You were about to call him, when your phone ring. You quickly answer knowing it's him. "yoboseyo? oppa?? are you alright?" "_________,c-can you co-come over?I had a nightmare." His voice cracked, a slight sobbed can be heard. It hurts you. You don't want him in this condition. you hate it. "Sure,oppa. i'll be right there.Wait for me eo ??" with that, you grab your raincoat and ran outside of your room. You grab you sneakers and lock you door before running into the rain. Your house was just two block from l.joe's house. You arrived about 5 minute later and dash to enter his house. You took off your sneaker and raincoat and headed toward l.joe's bedroom. "Oppa?" , you then saw him sitting with his head low while sobbing at the edge of his bed. You reach to him and give him a hug. "shhh,oppa . don't cry. i'm here now.",you lead him to bed and tuck him. You lay beside him and close the distance between you two. He hides his face at the crook of your neck and sniff. You soothed him by singing a lullaby. "don"t leave me,______"he said. "i won't oppa. Never in my life i will leave you. i'll always be by your side . Now don't cry" you rubbed his back and continue to sing him a lullaby. "Thank you for coming,________.saranghae" "nado saranghae oppa" you pecked his lips. soon,both of you drifted to your happy dreamland. No more nightmare. THE END
