The Couple In Love

Episode 50's

                                                        

　

The two headed for their respective rooms that were located quite far away from each other. Akira went into his room. “Hhhh... how should I end it when everything has come this far?” he asked himself a moment after throwing his body on the bed. 

Akira again forced his eyes to close. Again, his attempt failed. His eyes still could not close with a myriad of thoughts and questions that he could not answer. “Do me and Daylan go their separate ways? Looks like it will be easier.”

“Tok... tok... tok...” Akira's room door rang knocking.

Akira looked towards the door. “Who knocks on the door at night?” Akira. The door was knocked back repeatedly. Akira was sure he didn't hear wrong. He got out of his bed. His feet moved closer to the door. “Who?” ask Akira later.

“I...” vote from outside without mentioning initials. Akira's eyes are round. He clearly knew that voice. What does he think he's doing these nights here?!

“Akira... open the door.. I beg you..!”.

“Come back to your place! I'm not opening the door.”

“Oh, department! Looks like someone's coming. What am I supposed to do? I can't hide or run.” Klek. Akira opens the reflex door that Daylan immediately enters. Daylan immediately locked the door back.

“What do you think you're doing here?! What if we get caught?!”

“Calm down, they're all asleep.”

“Hah…?! You said someone was coming. So, you lied?”

“I didn't say that. I said there seems to be.”

“Hhhh... now get out fast!”

“No.”

“What?!”

“I said I didn't want to. I've been hard-earned into here, how can I get out without doing anything.”

“Hhhh...you... aish! If there's anything you want to say quickly say!”

“What if we are honest with them tomorrow?”

“What?”

“What if we tell them everything tomorrow?” Akira looked at Daylan in disbelief. “You really... how can you think like that?! You can even come here when your lover is in the same building, how can you say that all this time you loved her?! Don't you think how shocked they are and what they'll do next?! Are you really crazy?!”

“Crazy? How can I not go crazy when two women who are so precious to me are in one place in front of my eyes?! You think I don't think about it at all?”

“How can you say you have two precious women for you in front of me? How can you.”.

“Because I don't want to hide anything from you..”.

“Hhhh. We better stop..”

“Enough! I don't want to hear it.”

“What do you mean? Even without hearing it, you know exactly what I'm going to say. You still love her, right? You can't let go either, can you? You also heard how seriously they were talking about marriage, right? How can I..”.

“You're right. It would be a lie if I said I didn't love her at all. But, I had to choose someone to save at the expense of someone else. Because if you don't, it's not just me and you, but everyone in this villa, no one will be happy. And I can't just let it go.”

“So you chose to save me?”

“Hmm..”

“Are you sure? What if I prefer to be with Daniel?”

Daylan's eyes turned red unexpectedly hearing that sentence from Akira. “Hhhh... Don't joke! That's the only impossible option.”

“What did you say? Kidding around? I'm not kidding! I'd rather agree if we disband and..”.

“You said it.. You said it again that easily.” Daylan's eyes are increasingly glazed. He looked at Akira inside. “You love him that much?” a drop of Daylan's tears trickled down along with her steps closer to Akira. Daylan fluttered her right hand against the wall cornering Akira.

“Daylan... what are you doing..?”

“I have taken your first without permission, therefore, I will also give mine the first for you.”.

“Daylan, we cannot see.” a soft touch that he cannot avoid breaks Akira's speech. The atmosphere was momentarily silent. Maybe some of her was expecting it too. A drop of Daylan's tears fell down her cheek. Daylan took one step back. Akira's cheek touched slowly.

“Sorry to bring you into this matter so far. Sorry to hurt you like this.. I promise I won't discuss the matter again… give me a moment to finish my business with all of this. until that time comes.. Stay together as usual…” Daylan took off a touch of her hand from Akira's cheek along with tears that began to fall even though she held it. “happy birthday, Akira…” Daylan pulled her step towards the door then put something on the table in Akira's room before exiting. A small box with a patterned and beautifully colored paper wrap complete with ribbons on it.

Clamps. Daylan's hand tightly gripped the doorknob that he held back his feelings and tears that he could not hold.  He forced his feet to step amid the wounds and the roar of tears towards his room. Clamps. Daylan closed the door to her room. His body fell behind the door. Her list of tears fell to the floor. Whatisthis? What feelings made her cry like this? Is this something called love?  Or maybe just because he felt fooled into believing that Akira was able to see him as himself with the end instead preferring Daniel over him? None of her questions

unanswered. He just wiped it with his own tears.

　

*******

　

Akira returned to reading the message after Daniel gave him a surprise and birthday present when they arrived in Seoul. The day had stepped on the night, almost entering midnight. Akira was still standing at the entrance of his apartment gate. Should he go back to the apartment? Or maybe he should just stay at the hotel for the night? Akira breathed a long breath and determined. I have to go home and finish everything. Confidently while stepping into the apartment area. His feet continued to lead him straight towards his apartment. He pushed the bell in three times. But there is no answer. His fingers finally typed in the password.

Clamps. Door opens. Akira began to step inside the dark apartment without any illumination. He walked closer to the switch to turn on the lights. Cteks. The apartment lights are alive. Then he looked. Eyes widened. Whatisthis? I must have been dreaming. Akira pinched his cheek reassuringly. It´s real. Viewing the order of space and beautiful writing on the wall with flickering lights that also began to live. Tar cakes and candles that have not been turned on also decorate the table containing various other foods. There's only one weird one. Daylan's head was also lying on the table with two palms as a support pad. Akira approached Daylan and put down his bag and sat down next to her. Akira shields his chin with his right hand while looking at Daylan.

He was always stupid as usual. Expecting something but acting the opposite to getting it. “How can you ask me not to like you by doing these things, Stupid?” Akira. I'd be lying if I never thought of you and had no feelings for you after all. Therefore, I will say it once, “Sorry, because it seems.. I.. can not keep my promise..” fingers Akira moved to wipe Daylan's hair. “Sorry.. because I.. may..” Akira chanted the last word of the slowly disconnected strand in Daylan's ear. He then pulled back his body with a smile on his lips and headed to his room. Akira took his first steps.

“You want to leave me just like that..?” daylan asked as her hand had grabbed Akira's arm.  Akira's eyes widened in shock. Daylan raised his head. “Sit…! I've spent a lot of my energy and time making all this and waiting for you. So, however, at least appreciate and eat a little with me.” Akira is speechless and still remains silent in a half-upright position because his arm is pulled Daylan towards him. Only his face seemed to turn increasingly nervous and nervous considering the words he had just whispered into Daylan's ears. Did he hear it…? Akira finally just sat down slowly.

Daylan lights a match to liven up Akira's birthday cake candle with a smile on her lips.

“Taraa... Kuemu is ready!” Daylan thrust the cake at Akira. “Happy birthday, Akira!” Akira was dumbstruck by the nervousness of his curiosity whether Daylan really did not hear what he said so he remained ordinary. Daylan chuckled at Akira's expression. “Shouldn't you thank me at a time like this?” he said later.

“Oh, sure! I thank you for all this.” Akira said at last with a smile. Daylan laughs.

“Your expression is more appropriate to say as nervous than an expression of gratitude.”

“Ehh…? A-me..”.

“Quickly make a request and blow out your candles!” Daylan cut off Akira's nervous speech she realized with a genuine smile.

Akira was silent for a moment back to his stable state. He smiled thinly. “ Without song?”

“ Celebrating it like that will only make it like other people's celebrations are not special and will end up boring. I told you I don't like that, right?”

Akira again carved a smile on the tip of his lips and moved to push his body forward while closing his two visuals for a moment and then blowing a candle on his birthday cake. Ah, yes.Daylan once said he did not like such a way…

Akira pulled his body slightly backwards then opened his visual. His eyes widened silent with a bang in his heart and heart that did not understand him found Daylan's face that suddenly had been so close to his face befriended a distinctive smile adorning Daylan's handsome face.

“What did you just ask for..?” daylan asked still with a fluffy smile hoping to find out. Akira was still speechless. “Hey, Akira…! You okay?” Daylan moved her palm touching Akira's forehead. Too close. Akira closed his eyes reflexively. “Hey, you're fine! Did you hear what I said?” Daylan pulled her body slightly backwards.

“Oh, sorry…! What did you just say?”

“Your request...what is it?” daylan repeated after putting on a face not expecting Akira not to hear it since.

“Oh, the.....”.

“Ah, secret, yes?” guess Daylan perverted it himself. “Good. Then...” Daylan move lift something. “...taraa….! Your special gift...!” Daylan smiled sincerely as she placed a 50 cm blue box with a large ribbon and beautiful decorated it in front of Akira. Akira kept silent. How could he act like there's nothing after what he did to me last night?After my words to him, after I hurt him, after the fact made me realize that he only did that because he wanted to be the first to congratulate me and give me a gift, how could he…?

Daylan was chin-backed while clasping her fingers and smiling beautifully at Akira. “Congratulations.. Akira..” he revealed later.

Akira's lips twitched. Unable to say while looking at Daylan's face. He immediately turned his gaze towards Daylan's gift box for her.  The fingers touched the box slowly. “But..., you gave your gift to me yesterday, right?”

“Hmm. But, like I said, it's your special gift. As a thank you also sorry for everything.” Akira turned to Daylan who cut his own words. “....and also all this cooking… I hope this moment will be able to re-establish our relationship. Even if I knew, you would not be able to forgive me with just this gift and treatment. And also sorry for forcing you so hard to stay by my side and leave her after everything.. I shouldn't have done it.. once again forgive me... and..let's live together like always!”.

“Ah, looks like the cake and the food is good! Let's cut and eat together!” Akira smiled as he grabbed the knife to cut the cake that Daylan had prepared.

“I won't force you to stay together and vote for me again. You have the right to make your choice. And this is a special gift for us!” Daylan smiled continuing what she wanted to say without being affected by Akira's diversion while taking out a small box. Akira was back. Any more?

“What is it?”

“Give me your hand!” Daylan reached out her left hand asking for Akira's hand. Akira looked at Daylan. What else is this now? Didn't he just say to live together as usual? Daylan moved her hand while smilingly hinting at Akira to extend her hand. Akira finally extended his hand slowly. Daylan smiled again with her left wrist held and her right hand that opened the box she had taken out. Akira's gaze locked onto Daylan without noticing what the contents of the box he opened had suddenly coiled around his wrist. Daylan did not immediately take off Akira's hand. For a moment he put something in his hand. “Completed!” daylan exclaimed with a joyful smile while showing Akira's wrists and hands that were now wrapped around the same pair of bracelets.

“I-ni..”.

“Bracelet friendship bond between us. Let's be good friends from now onwards!”

Akira smilingly clenched his teeth behind the carvings of both ends of his lips hiding the tears that had been at the tip of his horn. Daylan did everything just for this? Even if he said to just be a friend, wasn't that what he did just for me? Could love turn into friendship? And what am I gonna do next?

The sun began to rise and spread its lights throughout the Gingseng Country. Daylan stepped out of the bathroom after the shower and prepared. His steps stopped in front of his bedroom door. His smile broadened looking straight ahead. It's nice to be able to even just see it there by my side like this every day. Her thought.
