The sound of roosters crowing signifies the morning has come. The sound of birds squeaking together adds to the crowd of cool and cold mornings. Sunlight began to appear on the Eastern horizon with clouds that slightly covered the rays.
Seen in the rented kitchen, Raehan was wrestling with a frying pan on the stove with a spatula in his hand. Short hair so that he tied it up that it showed the girl's white neck. His brown eyes remained focused on the frying pan in front of him. This morning, he made omlets for breakfast because only those food ingredients were available in the fridge. It seemed, Fir was very irritating to food.
The smell of the newly mature omlet tickled Fir and Miya's still cool sense of smell coiled under the blanket. Fir who was sleeping on the terrace, slowly opened his eyelids which still felt heavy. However, the worms in his stomach had shouted for food. Similarly, Miya who immediately woke up and ran out of the room.
"Wooaahh, it's so sweet!" yelp Miyah happily sat down at the dinner table, without washing her face before. Raehan smiled lightly at Miyah's happy screech, which sounded like a Lion's screech.
Huhh, remembering Lion made him miss that brat. Raehan walked over with three omlet plates in his hand. Then, put the three plates on the table.
"Omlet, breakfast!" exclaim Fir is no less excited.
"It must be delicious because it's what makes Raehan," praised Miya with sparkling eyes and saliva that was ready to spill from the corner of her lips.
"Ahh, you guys never eat omlet. It's a home-made omlet. I hope you like it" Raehan replied humbly. Then, pull up a chair and sit down.
"Obviously, we'd love it because it's made so lovingly." Fir began to spoon the omlet into his mouth. While Miya and Raehan chuckle funnyly with Fir's words.

On the other side of the earth, right at Dion's residence. The man with the cold and flat face was exercising. While on the kitchen set, Kazuya was playing with kitchen utensils.
The kitchen barrier glass was so clear, that Kazuya could see Dion exercising in front of him. Since coming home from last night, Dion just kept quiet with an annoyed face. Intentionally wanting to ask what happened, he undoes his intention fearing that Dion was angry and getting upset.
"Ion, breakfast first!" kazuya exclaimed half-screaming, making the man wearing the t-shirt stop his activities and walk into the kitchen.
Dion pulled out a chair and sat down without any sound. His heart was currently upset by yesterday's events. Not to mention, about Raehan who almost died from being pushed into the abyss. He felt like a coward for not being able to protect the little girl. Not to mention the presence of Agara around Raehan makes himself feel eliminated.
Kazuya served a plate of white rice and also sauteed and meat sticks. Then, he sat right in front of Dion.
"You got a problem?" kazuya asked breaking the silence. Dion glanced at Kazuya, then picked up the stir-fry and stick.
"I feel useless," Dion replied flatly. Then, feed the food into his mouth.
"Why?"
"Yesterday Raehan almost died."
"Huh?" Kazuya's mouth was instantly rounded with both eyes perfectly widened. He didn't hear wrong, did he? But how can it be?
"How is that possible?" sosor Kazuya by throwing the question again.
"Kiara did it. If I were there, I wouldn't let Raehan be in danger. I felt like I wanted to eliminate Kiara for daring to hurt Raehan" said Dion with tightened jaws.
"She survived but there were a lot of scratches on her piercing. However, what pissed me off was Agara."
"Come?"
"Well, he kept clinging to Raehan, and Raehan seemed to have forgotten his anger towards Agara. I feel like I have no place in Raehan's heart. Actually, what don't I do for Raehan? I was even ready to sacrifice myself for him. However, why can't Raehan give up his heart to me?" Dion's voice was heard in utter terms with grief and pain. It sounded very heartbreaking for Kazuya who also felt pity.
"If so, just leave your heart to Anet."
Both of Dion's eyes immediately glared at Kazuya. He dislikes Kazuya's words, telling him to give his heart to Anet. He was heartbroken and upset but Kazuya could have said that.
"What did you say?" snarl Dion by putting the spoon roughly until it clang.
Prangs!
"I won't be able to do that because I don't have feelings for Anet. I can't force my heart to love Anet because in my heart there's only Raehan" Dion's sarcasm with a face flushed red with annoyance.
"Well, that's what I mean, Ion. Nor can Raehan force his heart to love you. In her heart there was only Agara because she loved Agara. Is not your position the same as Raehan. Then, why did you throw that mistake at Raehan?"
Dion's lips were silent at once. His tongue was too faint to reply to Kazuya's words that smashed and broke his heart. However, what Kazuya said was indeed true. The heart cannot be forced where it will choose and dock. The truth was too painful for him to digest. However, Kazuya's words were really discouraging in him to make Raehan fall for him.
"What do you mean I should give up?" dion said with both eyes already heated up. However, he held a clear circle that was about to fall.
"You've fought very well, Ion. You've always been there for Raehan, being the girl's protector. You don't have to be afraid to give up because it's happiness for Raehan. You don't have to torture yourself with a desire to win because it's not a good thing. You just need to get used to it and suppress your feelings for Raehan. Let Raehan choose the man he wants. You can be a friend to Raehan, right? But don't stop Raehan's feelings." Dion finished his words. Hopefully what he just said can make Dion can make the right decision.
He just doesn't want Dion or Raehan to get hurt. They're very good people. Dion got up from his seat and chose to leave Kazuya who was still staring at him wistfully.
There was a sense of tightness squeezing Dion's chest very tight. In fact, he could not breathe smoothly. Dion chose to calm himself on the balcony, breathing cool air to relieve the tightness that might not be able to disappear.
