"Even when a star dies, it gives birth to another one. It's mere existence is life and growth. One day I wish to be as infinite as the stars. To exist forever, if at least in their hearts."
When you left, you were not looking for a savior.
When he...

"You're an idiot."
"How was I supposed to know it was that high?! You're lucky I didn't drop your cake."
You smile, you can't help it. Spending the day with him wasn't as bad as you thought it was. The time at the cafe was enjoyable, even when he decided it was a smart idea to try and climb on top of a wall, you found yourself content and happy.
It was definitely better than being alone.
"If you did, you wouldn't be standing." You mutter, trying to keep your voice smooth and calm. He lets out a soft gasp, turning to you in mock fear.
"You're scary."
"Maybe." You purse your lips, but can't keep the sly grin from spreading on your face.
When he asked you to spend time with him, you didn't imagine that it would be this fun. He took you to a cafe, and as soon as you started talking it was as though the two of you had known each other for years. Glancing over at him, you study his features just like you did the first time you saw him across the hall.
He's the type of person you feel comfortable with, someone you can rely on.
"You know what I just realized?" he says, pausing in the middle of the sidewalk. You turn to him, raising your brow.
"What?" You ponder when he doesn't finish his thought right away.
"We never introduced ourselves." You chuckle as he runs up to you before holding out his hand. Looking at it with a skeptical look, you hesitate before taking it.
"My name is Hwang Sunoh, it's a pleasure to meet you, madam."
You smirk, shaking your head at his overdramatized accent.
"I'm Yen Lin...well I suppose here you'd call it like, Lin Yen." You respond and can't help but smile at his giddy grin.
"It's nice to meet you."
Hwang Sunoh.
It's surprising how just yesterday, he was someone who had dampened your day. Now, he's able to bring a smile on your face without hardly lifting a finger. You can't help but feel a bit free. When you're around people like him, things just seem so easy. It's hard for you to remember that there was a time when you didn't feel this way.
It's hard for you to realize that the world can be cold.
Releasing him, you turn to start on your path home but freeze.
Your heart begins pounding, your palms turning cold as you notice the figure standing in front of your apartment complex. Shocked, you step back a bit, trying to make out his facial features, but his back is to you.
