MOONLIGHT
Vol. 2 E:20
I ran towards the tulip plantation area, heading under the bridge where I was parting with Yue.
Hos.hos...
My breath stinged, I laid myself on the ground of rocks, helplessly sprawled.
Who's.....
Why would.......
The people here look at me like I'm someone else. They look at me and judge me.
The man claimed to be the father of general Yue, my doctor. “but I never got sick” I whispered looking up at the starry sky.
My feet ache, I put my feet in the cold stream.
“general Yue, you are finally happy. You look different than yue who was here at that time” said I stared at the shadow in the river.
“but, why should it be this fast..? this short ? am I not ready.?” my connection weighed my words.
My tears washed with river water, making my makeup fade.
“again I failed to finish the party.” Comments themselves.
If if she were me, would the one beside yue be me..?
If I were worthy, what now sits in the coat is me..?
If I were a person worth defending, would I be able to accompany him today ?
The question that was thrown in me as someone else showed me. Staring at yue, along with yue I was like being another figure, a figure that was distant and familiar to Yue.
“ul who exactly are you.?” I said to myself.
“then I was right. You are here” said the voice behind me
I got up and made sure it was him
“then agi, now ul. Ckckckck... You are happy to change your identity, he said, sitting next to me.
“i think the king of the party has disappeared. How can you here”
“how am I here it was you that made it happen”
“you joke general Yue” said I looked down not daring to look at him
“if I was braver would you like to hold me.?” asked Yue half in despair
I sat back half crouched. “how could”
“if only..” said yue reminded.
“how about you..? are you happy after this..? will be happy.?”
“you don't need to take care of my happiness, sir”
“instead I have come this far because for your happiness” he said looking at me fixedly. The man in front of me is like an old friend who I don't know when I'll meet again.
His gaze was fixedly filled with fear, something I had just learned from the general.
“please sir, I am just a new person passing by in your life”
“are you him..? I hope not so that the weight I bear a little subsides.”
“all I know, you lord yue should be happy after marriage. Your priority is the main” I whispered lowered in his chin.
“you, please forgive me. I don't know. How am I going to redeem this.?”
“you will redeem it.?”
“ya” said it was short
I untied my hair facing him taking the tucked binyeo back to him.
I turned her back, behind her hair, combed with her sturdy fingers but felt fragile. I closed my eyes, holding back my tears lest he know.
“today let me comb your hair. I'm sorry I couldn't comb your hair all my life” regrets him.
“ Yue Guang Lim, let everything go back to the beginning. Like the beginning before we met. Think of it as back to the beginning. Like my hair that hasn't rolled up, you just saw it unravel” I said whispering my voice choked.
My hand held my lips so as not to tremble due to the turbulent emotions of the heart. I don't want to scream, make it hard to make a choice. I feel the kiss in my head feeling the pent-up miss.
“if our distance is not too far do you want to accept me.?”
“not the distance that makes it impossible Yue”
“your words, your gaze, yourselves like a warm light”
“aku where is it possible...? you are the moonlight, like the moon above the sky with the stars. Like it was supposed to live Yue”, I convinced myself, convinced his decision was right without needing to be changed.
“relax. I'll hold you until you calm down. Please don't take the hard choices that torment you. Let me bear the” whispers in my ear like a coolant that keeps me at peace.
I turned my gaze to look at him, “at least don't leave a trace on my body Yue, it
it makes me so heavy-hearted to realize the morning without you”, I said preventing him from pecking my face.
I realized my heart wouldn't be able to do more than this. The person who makes me care only about her. I would love to scatter every inch of his face, but the clothes he wears make my morale still remains.
