Play:Wild forest The glory ost🥀🍁

There is no start in the sky this night. Clouds are running alover the sky. The silence is suffocating in the weather. Uneasiness is prominent on her face as she was holding the kitchen knife in her hand.

The digital clock read 12 past 30. The flashing of thunder was visible throght the giant glass windows that touched the floor made Kaewon jerked up.

He never stayed out till this long . Getting the satisfying result from the final term of her schooling her mind was filled with a heavenly happiness that for a fair moment she forgot how pathetic she could feel at times.

Her future was still vague. Alone till she was. Friendless unfortunate human . She was again feeling really confused and messed up about everything. The increasing proximity between both of them.

The proximity which could lower her to the grave of her parent. Could make her a sinner. God up there might be planning something grievous for her that she was proceeding one by one step towards the pool of sin, sipping it everyday.

However , she can't help. Finding the mutuality of it which was appreciable by him made her at ease but so stuck  within that was making  her omit her  existence from life .

Dazzing. Drowning . Dreaming like reality---- "can't it be a dream, my life. Like someone would wake me up from my slumber. I would be free. What's in my fa____"

The crashing of metal startled her to the core. In the dark room where the thunder was the only source of light she looked down at the place where the weapon was hold.

Red. It was all red and a thick rope of red, deep redness was dripping down in droplet.

Sounding

Drip...

Drop!

Drop...

"Thud!...."

The empty house echoed back the heavy sound of the wooden door getting opened.

The man , the sole masculine figure of the house finally arrived . His sole nest was now full.

His eyes looking for the another life , the only existing life that was left for only him. The pin drop silent terrorised him as his mind was getting clouded with negative thoughts , that something bad might have happened to her as the commotion made him internally stirred .

She has to be fine .

Making no move he kept standing in the middle of the huge drawing room. His mirror was reflecting him with the thunder strokes and wild wind and reckless rain flakes in unruly way entered the house making the floor wet.

With the storm going out , the door was shut with another loud noise before the whispers of wind could no longer be heard.

When again silence found its place Jeonggook closed his eyes to stop his mind over working to listen any sound of living existence.

°~••~°~••~°~••°~••~°••~°••~°~••~°~••~°~••~°

The weather worsen outside. Inside there ...........

He was wondering and feeling his head hot as on thinking how could the Jeons have a relation with the deadliest underground loard at this point.

The mansion like house where they lived was more like a maze for the one who never been there.

He entered the biggest room of the house which was at the second floor of the place. He turned the knob to step in. The master bed was covered with white sheets.

He could not focus on anything. His mind was traveling from Kaewon to the file where the deal was signed or any evidence of the root of this malice.
He could have rammaged through lockers and drawers of this untouched master bedroom , but .

The sound of running water which he was expecting made him turn left and walk into the closet which was now empty led him to the place where she was.

He could easily get it in making noise of his boot as it was left open . The floor which was well marbled of white -ish with black granite seemed like someone splashed some water mixed with rotten raspberries.....

The footsteps which even was echoing in the empty house awake the one from whose body an endless thin flow of metallic liquid was running down with the shower dribbles.

Her pale face showed the bloodshot eyes of her . He caring not the pain he was feeling over his temple hidden under his sweat wet hairs , panicked to run over to her .

"Plod"

Loosing balance on her legs she sat on the messed up floor. He knelt with horrified eyes at her.

He got baffled from where to start and what to!

He ran his palm on her face which looked so lifeless, then to her both palm which was all red now hiding the actual raptured skin.

"What...how ...did you.., Won." He could not make any proper sentence so she said nothing kept looking at his face, like noting down the details in her mind .

"Ahck" she yelped when he tried to take her hand in his to caress only. He fearfully noticed her.

"Say something Won. "

She gasped in the running water .

"It's....it's...."

"Oh lord. " he coursed for letting her get hurted. His mind was messy . Her mute state was intriguing him more.

Fustratedly he jerked her with her both arms.

"Open you mouth , Won. Don't pain me this much..." he instantly regretted his decision of choosing words .

"Is this why you want....want to send me away...huck!" Hiccups were chocking you .

"Hey, never."

He stood on his both knees and took her head in his chest letting himself get wet more.

He again retreated caressed her blue cheeks.

"Won...just tell you didn't try self harming.." she chucked sadly at his thought. Was he unaware that she was timid and coward enough to do so.

"No....it's just...happened." she nodded and looked at her bloody hands.

"I -eck ... was holding the kitchen knife .." his liquid mixed with hers and started flowing as well as the blood pressure in his veins was increasing.

"Why..."

"Let me say... I forgot it was knife and gripped it with both side that it sliced down  not deep my palms,...that's it."

He huffed and felt the his  head stung.

He took her hands to clean it under the running shower as he saw it carefully , his hair revealed his ugly wounds to her.

She tried to move hand to touch it but instead it took his attention.

"You hitting your heads to get rid off me?"

He unpleasantly scrunched nose.

"Tell me ... who's that hound dared to do it?"

The audacity she  had to make fun of him at that point . Her tears and water got mingled .

"We need to clean the wounds."

"What about this?"

He touched it to see the same fluid .
He carried you to sit at the corner of the bathtub.

Turning of the shower as the floor was as beautiful as before then he took towels and pair of robes from the cabinet.

She was trembling then . If it wasn't him catching her head with towel to rub , she would have fallen back in the tub.

Something happened with her that made her paranoid and paralysis of the normal analysis to do right things.

Thinking is so hard for her she can't force her brain.

This bed is relatively softer that other one maybe because it is rarely used .
As he wrapped both of her hands she said looking at the white gauge.

"What about...yours. " she couldn't make her voice say as she felt she would break into tears in any moment.

He brushed his glance on her and turning the box in her direction said.

"I got you to do it on my behalf."

She sadly tried to smile in stead warm tears came out.

The white robe was only  covering her body she still felt a bit warm and feet cold.

"Who beat you?"

"Some small fuckers ." She left some understandable sounds

"Earlier you said I want to send you abroad because I wanna get rid off you ....well that needs to be explained."

"Going there you would live a much free life and may be there will be no one to rule over you , instruct you .....order you...."

".....Scold me....take care of me , being worried about me , panick about me ....." cried only she cried.

She tried to do some moves with her already injured hand so he grabbed.

"Why are you crying !" He said but she took the cotton and betadine removing his hands and dabbed it hard on his as he hissed.

"Be...because I am feeling like...." chocking in her own words she said.

Finally cleaning it she wrap the bandage on him.

He took her hand close to his cheek and and smugly said." Pretty please , tell what's making you all tear up, hmm?"

She sucked the air and tightly closed her eyes and opened to let it go.

"I ...I don't want to leave. Leave this place ....this comfort ...this small nest of mine...which has only You."

" I would be along there.....would want attention and if I want to divert I wouldn't be able instead I would be destructed from my ultimate duty to raise my grades."

"I... know ....I am sounding all damshell pathetic.....what should ..i...do to it. There will be no mom dad though they are not here but....still the mere existence of them which is hitting my morality every time me that I am insane in an UNEARTHY.....Sin ..... the pull i feel"

" I am just afraid I would be __"

"Shhhh.....you don't have to say more. Stop this pipe leakage."

She failed to hide her smile and cried in tears, he hugged her cozily and said the mantra in her ears.

"Who said you will be alone...have I left you ever?"

She nodded and voiced low key.

"Then!"

She looked at his calm face and a ligh of hope twinkled  in her Irish.

"...will you..."

"Yes.....We'll be going together."

He hugged you more tightly. She closed her eyes in temporary relief from that tormenting day.

See you in the next chapter...♡
