“I want that boy!”

“What the hell are you doing!? Let me go!!! Let me go!!!”

“AAA… Hurts! It hurts! Please forgive me!”

“You’re so hahaha”

Darkness comes,

taking over from the small track of sunlight

 that was going far away, getting lost in sight…

Fell down…

Splintered…

…

 “DON’T!”
 

I startled, woke up realizing I was all sweaty. Mumbling some random things, I tried to calm myself down. My terrible thirst told me water would be much of help. After a while considering, I decided to leave the room to get some water.

The corridor was dark and perfectly silent. I could even hear my heart pounding in my chest. Since the day I became a member of this hospital’s personnel, I have never left this place. It is the home for a homeless like me. Therefore, logically, I should not be scared like I am now - I’m too familiar with this place to be scared of it, isn’t that supposed to be? In the end, I decided to blame my fear on that damn earlier nightmare.

Suddenly, I saw a light in the patient room at the end of the corridor. I swear my heart almost dropped out.

“It’s JunHyung”

That was all I could think of. I knocked on the door, which I’m sure was JunHyung’s roomdoor.

“YongYong? You’re still awake? May JangJang come in?”

There was no answer, which I took for a Yes.

I was stunned at the sight. The windows were wide open. Night strong winds violently blew inside, the windows curtains flapped across the room. Bright moonlight flooded in, enlightening the whole room. JunHyung was sitting with his arms clasping his knees, in his eyes, nothing could be seen but a blank expression. The moonlight inlaid the whole space with a bright golden color. In the mesmerizing picture, stood out the refined line on the face of a young man, on which an enigmatic expression laid. The man slightly furrowed his eyebrowns, the expression became vague - the vagueness that reminds us of something about to vanish.

JunHyung’s POV

Chaos…

Pain…

Death…

Blood…

And Tears…

 Memories came back to me like pieces of a puzzle returning to their original place.The puzzle revealed a picture, but it was an ugly and disgusting one - the one I wouldn’t accept even if I died.

Lies kill trust, but can the ugly truth revive it?

I was told to live inside this cover - the cover of deceit. Living there, I didn’t think, I didn’t feel the pain. Living, but soul-less - live like a corpse.

But that cover is crumbling down. I will and I have to come back to the world where I belong - the disgusting world I can’t hide from. Because returning to that world is the only way I can truly live, not just exist.

/Flashback/

 Twilight. Dim light from street lamps makes people feel like having got lost in dreamland. A shiny silver convertible swifted like lightning on the dark road.

“AAAAAAAAAAA”

A scream and constant sobs dragged me out of my sleepiness.

“Umma! Huhuhuhuhu…”

A little girl fell down ahead of my car. On her hand was an old doll. Maybe she wanted to pick that doll up but was unfortunate enough to fell in the road accidentally. What even more unfortunate was that my car was heading her direction.

That panicked and desperate look in her eyes was like a fire blazing up in the background of yellowish light - it keeps obsessing me, staying rooted in my mind.

 The intention of turning to other directions was a failure as the roads were too crowded on both sides. I jammed on the brakes constantly, unconsciously hoped for a miracle.

Damn! The brakes were broken!

No! NOOOOOO!

BANG!

“Darling!”

Blood! All blood!

 The disgusting reddish colored liquid covered all the place. Every breath I inhaled was filled with the scent of blood.

  I can’t see! I can’t breathe!

  Plaintive lamentations. The eyes filled with pain and hatred of a mother losing her child…

Too noisy! Silence! I said, SILENCE!

I dashed out of the car and ran away. Running without knowing if there was anyone chasing after me.

Trying to run away from reality. Run away from myself.

I grounded myself in darkness. Regrets and conscience were torturing me by taking my peace away. I will go confessing.

 I must confess!

It takes me quite a long time to update~
