Astonishing Bond
OVERDOSE: Midnight Memories“Your Highness, are you really okay?” Soohee unnie looks at me kind of amazed. I nod. “No part feels numb or weak? You had been sleeping for three days straight though…,” she mumbles, looking at me suspicious.
I shake my head. “I am really fine, unnie.”
“Oh, don’t call me unnie, Your Highness. I am just a low creature.” She takes few step backwards. “I don’t deserve it.”
“Oh, God, please, I don’t like to be called Highness or whatever that is.” I hiss. “I am younger than you, aren’t I?” I look at her, realizing that she looks a lot younger than me though. “Ehm… I mean in this magical immortal creatures, I am a lot younger than you, unnie.”
“Your Highness, how come…,” She lets out a cry, “… We never been older than you. You are the earth itself. How come we are older than you… We don’t dare to speak that way…,”
“Oh, nuna, cut that , ing please.” Minseok shouts from the room full of lamps. “She doesn’t like that formal thinking of yours. She is our Highness, that’s true. But, she hasn’t been herself since so long. Don’t be so formal.” He continues. “Make her your friend.”
“True.” I nod. “So please don’t be too formal, unnie. I am younger than you though. So, I call you, unnie.”
“Oh wait til you remember everything.” Soohee unnie face palms herself while walking towards Minseok. I follow behind her. “So, last night, three of you slept together like what we planned and everything goes well. Woa. That’s cool.”
“Exactly.” Lu Han utters from the room full of lamps where some of the boys have already gathered. “Sarang gets healed so fast. I don’t even believe it though.”
“Yeah. So magical. Isn’t it?” Dujun oppa pats my shoulder. “And, now we want to see the power of your element soul, Sarang.” He whispers. I look at him, confused.
“Hh… how?” I ask, stuttering to myself.
“Simple.” He answers. “You just do it here. You. Baekhyun. Light.”
“Are you freaking kidding me? How can I?” I question. “I do not create the power. It comes to me unconsciously.”
“That’s why all of us here.” He smiles. “To help you.”
“I don’t get it.” I utter. “How can you guys help me?”
“Stop it already, okay?” Someone yelps. I turn my head to find Sehun sniffs and gazes me in annoyance. “Just do it, right now. It gets boring.” He scoffs while crossing his hands over his chest.
“I am sorry?” I mutter towards him. “What… should I just do?” I glances at him.
“The ing lesson.” He mumbles with eyes avoid my gaze.
“Sehun…,” Suho who stands by his side all the time hugs the boy’s shoulder. “Will you behave? Or, you may train yourself in the next room…,” He continues. “Well?”
Sehun looks at me, more than annoyed, before walking to the door. “I’ll be in the next room.” He hisses and walks away from the room.
“Sorry, he’s not feeling well.” Suho utters before slightly nods towards me. I nod back. Whatever it is, it’s Sehun’s right to not like me, or hate me, or disrespect me. I don’t really care.
“Well, so, what we supposed to do here?” I look around. The boys slightly smile in amusement. “What… what is it?” I ask. “Why are you guys smiling like that?”
“Of course we smile in happiness to see with our own eyes your power displayed right in front of us.” Gikwang giggles. “So, how about we start it now?”
“Yeah, let’s do that.” Baekhyun takes a step closer towards me. “Your Highness, listen, we are trying to check on your element soul power. Just do it.”
“Oh… how?” I arch my brows.
“Like this.” Baekhyun moves his hands, and points with his index finger the lamps, and suddenly (and magically) the lamps turn on. “See? It’s easy.”
“You mean flickering our fingers like this to turn on the lamps?” I say, randomly flicker my fingers.
“WOAAAAAAW.” The room filled with squeal of the boys. “She makes it work.” And I see that the lamps turn on brighter than before.
“I made that happen?” I ask Baekhyun which is replied by him with a nod.
“You did that.” He utters. “Now let’s see how will it be if both of us join or powers.” He continues while taking my hand on his grip. I look at him, feeling something rushing on my vein. It creates certain tingle on my body. I don’t know it feels so hurt. It’s just like when Lu Han touches me. Baekhyun looks at me with a painful face. His eyes open widely. “Is it hurting… you?” He asks inaudibly towards me.
