Wings & Dreams

Reckon

"Rio," I whispered as I closed my eyes, not daring to look at the corpse that was in front of me.

"No," murmured the man beside me. He shook his head repeatedly, feeling devastated by the terrible things that befell his brother. "I-I just left it for a second. But ti.sudden-"

"Rio, this is all unreal" I whispered again, trying to calm him down. He still didn't look at me, but I knew he would listen to me. "This is all part of my dream. It's a lie."

"What do you mean, Clara?" He looked at me, this time in disgust. "the dream? You call this a lie?!" He grabbed me by the collar, and turned my head to the side. "Look carefully! Dain's! My brother! You still dare to call this a lie?!"

"It's not so!" Tears began to pool in my eyes. I myself do not understand the situation I am facing. "Rio, this is just a dream"

I felt a tremendous slap on my cheek. The world seems to stop. I don't hear the rain anymore. I no longer feel cold. I just touched the area of my cheek that hurt.

"Crazy man" Rio whispered before he got up on his feet. "Don't doubt you have that ability, you can't tell which reality isn't."

I stayed still, not moving from my place at all. I looked at the corpse in front of me. Poor Dain, Dain who was already a victim of the massacre.

I need to wake up and tell Zeyn everything I saw, I thought loudly. If this is a vision of the future, it means that Dain is in danger.

I exhaled, then focused my mind on the stillness that was sweeping through. Closing my eyes and squeezing my own clothes, I forced myself to immediately wake up to the real world.

My face is like a spillover by cold water. The lighting made my eyes hurt, but I finally opened my eyes. Even if it was only vague, I could already see Zeyn.

"Clar!" The man hugged me with all his might. But so tight, I grimaced in pain.

Zeyn noticed it and immediately let go of his embrace. Before long, I caught the movement of another figure from the tail of my eye. It was unusual for Clora to have a flat expression as she looked at me. I was a little surprised when I saw his eyes no longer looking at me lowly.

"Thank God you're conscious" Zeyn continued. He smiled happily and held my hand tightly. "Is that what you need now? Like food, or anything?"

"Umm, not Zeyn. I'm fine, "reply with gratitude. Thas right. Although my head still felt a little dizzy, returning to this world had relieved my feelings.

But in my mind, there is a memory that feels familiar. Turns out I remember it. I remember the contents of my dreams, even after I woke up.

"Zeyn," I hurriedly restrained his robe. He looked at me, looking at me in confusion. "There's something I need to tell you."

"Oh yeah? What'sthat?" He had pulled his stool closer to me, then propped his chin up on his hand. "Please, Clara."

I don't know where to start. As I was about to scratch my head, I felt my left hand holding a hard object.

I opened my fist and gasped at the sight of Krilie's now hardened body.

Clora was standing next to me, then took Krilie out of my hand. "Krilie?! Why do you have it?!"

I turned towards Zeyn, and the man also showed a confused expression. "You caught him, Clara."

"Yes," I replied while nodding.

"When?" He asked while giving me a sharp look.

"Umm.I don't know for sure..." Answer me honestly. "It looks like when I was about to wake up from my dream in the cave of the Winter Garden."

Zeyn said nothing more. This time I could not read his expression.

"So does that mean you can remember what your dream is now?" Clora asked, which surprised me because this girl is not usually interested in my abilities.

"Yes, and actually, I have to tell you something. Related to the contents of my dreams for these two days."

A few moments before...

Zeyn laughed when he saw the condition of his kitchen. He crouched down near the cabinet and touched the sweet liquid that littered the wall. "What's this?"

"One of the human foods, actually," Clora replied as she walked up to him. "Look, Kei used to say this to make cakes."

"Hmm." Zeyn had already licked his fingertips, wanting to feel how sweet the liquid was. Clora immediately turned her face away, not daring to look at the man's behavior with her own eyes.

"You seem to want to say something" Zeyn said. He patted her hands and put her behind his back as usual. "So?"

"So what?" Clora's throat was choked, and she was instantly at a loss for words as the man walked up to her with a smile.

"How long haven't I seen you?" Zeyn muttered, now he was in front of her. Clora hit the wall. His heart was exercising desperately.

Shit, why does his breath have to hit my face? He just wanted to close his eyes.

"You're so pretty" Zeyn touched her cheek with her fingers. Clora could not hold herself back anymore. It felt like being this close to Zeyn would make him even more insane. His eyes could not escape from Zeyn's lips that were so tempting. Lips are very soft and getting closer and closer

Zeyn's smile was gone and he dropped his hand from his cheek. "Sorry, Clora."

"U-for what?" It felt like he had just been slapped hard by a sense of disappointment. "Zeyn"

"I know what you want to say" said Zeyn, not looking directly at his face. The man then allowed his brown hair bangs. "I'm really sorry, Clora."

Clora was silent. He wanted to escape and go back to his room. Not because he had been humiliated, but he did not want Zeyn to see his face which must have radiated sadness from his own eyes.

Clora was about to walk away leaving Zeyn as the man blocked her path.

"Clora, are you sure there's nothing you want to tell me?"

"What does that mean?" Clora was astonished by such a question. Didn't he say he knew what I was going to say?

Zeyn looked at him fixedly. I don't know what it's doing in the brain.

"You like me."

This time Clora was unable to hide her expression. "I'm..."

Zeyn smiled sweetly. "I've known since I first met you. On the eve of the new student's feast at Faedemy, I saw a girl who managed to catch my attention."

Clora's cheeks flushed, though she wasn't sure the girl she was talking about was her own.

"And now, he's in front of me."

Clora remembered nothing but Zeyn's body holding her, and then a new hope shone in her heart. Could her feelings finally be getting riveted

The sound of screaming from outside the room suddenly separated them. Without looking back at him again, Zeyn ran out of the room.

But outside, he did not see Zeyn. No matter where the man went, Clora did not want to think about it. Because now in front of him, Kei is holding the human man named Jon.
