Young Masters

Lonely Soul, Lonely Heart

The highlight of those eyes seemed even more empty today.The cruel impression it felt had evaporated from his sharp iris and turned away with a sad look.

The loneliness in his soul continued to make him drown in the pain of loss. The impact is extraordinary until more than 15 years it still feels the same.

The tightness in his heart always brought his tears down, in his dark space and his solitude he cried without a sound.

The long fingers rotate a small syringe with the needle still closed. His eyes stared sadly at the photo of a smiling beautiful woman, as if looking at her guiltlessly.

"Yukina... " He called out a figure that no longer existed. Think of it as if the body is sitting in front of him now.

".... I'm sorry, I really can't forget you and can't stay in this world any longer. As you wish, I've raised your son very well, but again sorry, I can't take care of a daughter who looks so much like you."

Kris cried, the stuffing sounded so heartbreaking. He could not express it with words. One hand moved to open the injection cover and let it fall, letting the tip of the needle greet the surface of his skin.

"Yukina... Let's meet there, you can punish me for not being able to raise your daughter well.... "

Kris closed his eyes, allowing his tears to fall as his other hand pressed against the syringe and allowed the poison in the object to drain his veins.

"I miss you Yukina....."

Braaaackd.... 

"He's there catch him.... "

Kris was still smiling cunningly along with his collapsed body helplessly. The policeman will only find his body but not his life.

"Oh, aren't we late??"

"He injected himself to death."

"Medical... I need medical personnel..."

...********...

Yuta had heard about Kris being taken to the ER for attempted suicide just as she was about to be arrested. The man survived, although he has not yet passed through a critical period.

Yuta was worried, but yes... That was all, he was worried but not sad enough. Just ordinary worry.

I don't know, his empathic side refuses to overreact to the man who has taught him how hard life is.

Kris's cruelty in the past made Yuta reluctant to sympathize with the man. He knew enough but there was no desire from him to visit the man in the hospital. Instead Yuta stayed in his house and did nothing.

Yuhi and Chenle were also at home and did not go out of the room all day, it seemed like the sedative made Yuhi sleep long.

Yuta sits a little uneasy on his bedroom couch, opening his phone as a diversion but whatever the power, his heartbeat cannot be controlled.

The figure of the long-haired girl in front of him was the reason why Yuta experienced it.

Sunhye came, she had heard of Kris' arrest and she came to visit Yuta to comfort the man.

Yep... He said so anyway...

Their relationship is still awkward. Even when they were engaged, they did not talk much, just exchanging gazes at every opportunity they met.

The girl's unrest was read easily by Yuta because Sunhye who sighed repeatedly while twisting her dress. The girl was too embarrassed to talk, or maybe scared?

"I-I'll just go home .. It's already night."

"Don't.." Yuta instantly prevented it with a slightly raised voice. The man was even surprised why he did so.

"Eh. mm. your papa asked me to take care of you tonight." Yuta.

Actually he didn't want Sunhye to come home. Yuta is lonely and wants the girl to stay with him. Be she send a message to Papa Sunhye to ask permission for Sunhye to stay the night.

"Huh...???" Sunhye did not understand what Yuta said. Why did his papa ask Yuta to take care of him ? This is something that his father is not used to.

"Stay here."

Sunhye looked confused. He puffed his cheeks with one hand scratching the back of his neck.

"eehh... Yeah. mm. okay. "

Sunhye can sometimes be shy and Yuta is also quiet. It's a fitting blend to create a crickets sound backsound between them.

"If you sleep first, I'll sleep on the couch." Said Yuta. The man approached his bed and arranged a blanket for Sunhye.

The girl just complied with him. She laid her body there without even changing her clothes and removing her makeup. This awkward atmosphere made him forget everything, including being normal.

Almost half an hour Sunhye rolled on the bed but her eyes refused to shut. The girl looked at Yuta who was still busy with her phone. The man completely ignored her, it felt like Sunhye wanted to go home right now.

Yuta who felt he was being noticed finally looked at him. The effect of his sharp gaze made Sunhye surprised and then covered half her face with a blanket.

"Why not sleep?"

"Can't sleep." Answer Sunhye honestly.

"Want me to sleep??"

Sunhye was shocked and Yuta realized the mistake in the selection of the word he used. The man hurriedly corrected.

"Eh... It's like singing Nina Bobo's song.." The man scratched the back of his head and looked the other way.

"May I ask you something else??" Sunhye puffed her cheeks and stared expectantly.

"Yes??"

"hugs."

Seriate...
