5: The feeling of loneliness.

Walking towards the kitchen, Jisung looked around and saw no one. He sighed a bit, disappointed.

After the incident happened at Minho's house, he came home and started packing his clothes that were enough to wear while staying away from the things that had been happening since the time he met his soulmate.

He knew running away from the problems would only cause more troubles to arise, but the temporary sense of comfort he got from it was really important for him now.

He doesn't want to speak with anyone, and if possible, he wants to shut down the world around him.

Opening the fridge, he took out a bottle of water and gulped it down to quench his thirst. He sighed, feeling really out of place. He was missing the two kids who always came around to cheer him up, but now he doesn't want to be with anyone except them, the only people who aren't fake with the concerns they showed.

Not wanting to eat anything, he moved upstairs to take a quick shower.

After taking a warm shower and getting dressed, he moved towards the window and slightly leaned against it, glancing at the big green field covered with dewdrops that were shining from the moonlight.

One can pick up the wonderful sounds of nature that are commonly lost amidst the bustle of the city. The wind spoke as it blew across the land, whistling through the trees. Crickets rub their wings in song for anyone to hear.

Jisung closed his eyes with a sigh while basking in the cold wind that was entering his room.

His free mind was disturbed by a buzzing sound from his phone. Sighing, he took the phone from the nightstand and turned it on to see numerous notifications from his two friends, but one particular message got his attention, which made the entire comfort zone he had created shrink.

Milan Fashion Week

He was chosen as a model for the program months ago, and as a busy model, he had created the habit of marking the dates that he had scheduled, but he completely forgot to update the Google calendar after his accident.

Jisung's hands shook as he stared at the screen of his phone; his eyes filled with tears as he looked at the date, the date on which he once squealed with happiness.

Tears left his brown eyes and delicately slid down his cheeks to his plump, rosy, trembling lips and down to his chin, landing on the bright screen.

"I miss my old self," he voiced out, placing the phone back on the nightstand. Sliding down the wall, he pushed himself against the wall with tear-filled eyes.

"Why is everyone leaving me? No one is there with me now; I am all alone." He whispered brokenly, clutching his chest in pain.

A person would think, Why was he saying that everyone was leaving him when he had a few of them? But no one knows that the feeling of having everyone would sometimes make it feel like having no one, and the person who feels this would be lonely.

He glanced at his side and looked up, watching the night clouds slowly pass the stars while covering them.

"The stars are lonely, but still they know in the end they will get concealed by the clouds." He murmured in a hoarse voice, then looked back at the large mirror that was placed far away from him.

He can see the scar even from such a distance. He slowly started caressing the scar as tears started streaming again.

"Why do I have to be in such misery?" Why didn't God let me die instead of saving me while giving me the permanent scar?" He sobbed, bowing his head down as he whimpered onto his knees, his throat aching painfully and his eyes stinging so much from the amount of endless crying he had done in the past few weeks.

Unknown to him, someone who was feeling the same suffering that he was going through happened to be standing in front of the house while leaning against the tree with tear-filled eyes.

"Jisung... My baby... I'm sorry for not finding you sooner. If I did, I would have never let you face these problems." Minho uttered as he backed away from the tree and looked closely at the room above with its opened windows.

"But don't worry, I won't let you face the suffering you are facing anymore cause.."Minho smiled slightly with a look of determination.

"I will be there to embrace you into my arms."

It's time that he was so desperate to show Jisung and experience with his soulmate.

His feelings. His love for him.

Minho wiped his tears with the back of his hand and nodded, staring at the empty window of the room where his soulmate was currently staying.

He'll save his love all his life, and if he has to be selfish, then he will.

He'll take his soulmates' hate, but they won't let him get hurt alone ever again.

He was determined to do so.
