"It's indeed a beautiful name." Haechan smiled and it made her heart break and flutter at the same time, knowing he went through so much pain and burden just because of her, and was happy that he would be the one person she would spend her life with here, in this place, where she felt lost and sad.
It wasn't until she came and her life became colorful, but maybe nothing lasts forever, and their happiness will be on hold for now until later. Until they learnt that sacrifices and hard times are needed to be able to find our real happiness.
She carried Haera between her arms and carefully swayed her back and forth, singing a calm lullaby to make her fall asleep, and let Haechan rest for now. He's worked so hard this past few days, going out to steal milk and taking care of the baby for the past 2 weeks.
After making sure the baby's asleep, she laid beside Haechan on the bed and caressed his hair softly. "Please hold on for the next few months, I decided on a plan, for us." Before joining Haechan drifting off to sleep.
"Zhi Ping, wake up." Haechan poked her cheeks lightly and made sure to dress up before taking care of Haera for today. Zhi Ping woke up, feeling drowsy and didn't feel like doing anything for the day. But nonetheless, she got up from bed and dressed up. She was wondering what made Haechan wake her up this early. Usually, he would bring Haera to the garden and let her have some more sleep.
They walked side by side passing the river, as well as the magical forest before having to see a beautiful scenery. The houses and buildings that was unseen to her sight not until this day. She can't seem to take her eyes off the beautiful and unreal landscape right infront of her. "This is beautiful, Hyuck."
"Take me home, where I belong." Haechan sang gracefully, heart being chased down while paying attention to each of her features, from her eyes down to her nose and lips. He stood closer to her and trailed his fingers down her chin. She looked up to him, and was met with his pleasing and alluring hues of hazel eyes, the one that once made her fall deep for her, even 'till now.
"I love you," Haechan minimized the distance between both of them, and landed his lips on her. Both of them felt something they haven't before, and was left with an unsettling feeling, but was distracted with the love and warmth they shared with each other, as well as feeling butterfly in their stomachs. "Love you too Hyuck." She pulled him back to a passionate kiss without them noticing Haera looking at them with doll eyes, but seems like the miracle worked that day. Haera didn't drop a single tear after the incident.
Haechan woke up feeling delighted and light-heartedly got ready to bring Haera to the garden before noticing something unusual. As if his instincts told him something wasn't right, and he wished it wasn't what he was avoiding this whole time.
He threw away the pillows and blankets, and was left with an empty bed. "Zhi Ping?" He quickly carried Haera and rushed down to the hall and stood in front of Melissa's throne. "Where is she?!" He felt the rage inside of him, and was about to use his shifting skills, but knew he wouldn't stand a chance with the queen itself. He calmed himself as well as Haera.
Haera only looked up to him with a confused face. She was innocent, and didn't deserve to go through these kind of disaster. "Answer me or I'll slice your next down." Melissa laughed and made her way down, now standing right in front of Haechan, carefully inspecting Haera.
"I guess both of you took good care of my baby." Haechan didn't pay a single attention to what she was saying and only focused his mind on one thing, Zhi Ping. Haechan grabbed her by the collar of her golden dress, and burned holes through his eyes. Melissa used her powers to get rid of his hand from her and threw him to the ground.
She started shifting fire towards him, and thankfully he was able to dodge every single one of them. But not for the last gust of fire, he fell down and a loud thud was heard. He felt pain and wanted to scream but decided it wasn't his time to stay still not doing anything and being a coward he is.
He stood up and shifted fire towards her back, not exact and powerful, even so at least it distracts Melissa for the time being. "What should I do?" He began running down the halls and into their room. He locked the door and put a spell to it, knowing Melissa would break in down within seconds.
He escaped from the window and ran past the river, forest and back to the place they confessed to each other. "Zhi Ping where did you go?" Haechan felt frustrated, he felt helpless and was on the urge to give himself up, leaving this mystical world and going on the rough route.
He suddenly felt someone patting his shoulder lightly, and a shimmering light emerged between them. "Remember me?" Haechan moved back, utterly taken aback and shocked. Not expecting this to happen, even once in his life. The figure he once loved, and the innocent life taken from her because of an accident, a planned accident. Seeing her made him tear up and dropped himself down on the floor.
"Mom?" Haechan sobbed, still holding Haera between his arms. "It is, Donghyuck. My sunshine and forever will be. I heard that you had problems, and a girlfriend? I didn't expect that at all, knowing my once frosty and unfriendly child is now grown up, finally found his love of his life. I know I'm not the greatest mother you ever had. Beating you up without anyone knowing, nearly abusing her own child. What a nightmare it is for you dear. Now's not the time to tell you this, but let me tell you one thing. Don't give up, try your hardest. Give it your all, even it costs your heart and mind. Hard work pulls off, she's just here, inside your heart. You'll find a way out, she's right in front of you."
Her motherly figure disappeared in an instant, and he was left with a message. Feeling lonely once again, not being able to do anything. Haera hummed before falling asleep, Haechan leaned on a tree standing still there, thinking about the choice he had to make, before determining it was best for them.
"Hold on, love."
