Simple Works of Art

Chapter 3 - The Beggining

2 years had passed and the Female has never brought up a topic in her head of leaving the tower. She was comfortable in where she is, happy to spend time with her guardian, although she was slightly sad at the same time that she crushed her own dream, it was obviously fading away. She looked around, thinking of what to do. Her eyes caught a small piece of paper on the table, she stood up and grabbed it, folding it randomly. The output made her eyes shone, she didn't expect that it would form a simple structure. She admired her own work, examining how she folded it so neatly. She gently placed her work down on the stack of books on the coffee table and thought of painting something simple.

Min Yoongi slid down the hillside, causing his boots to get caught in a mud puddle though he didn't care much, he was used to this, getting dirtied all over. But he wouldn't allow his white so-called perfect face to even stick into an atom. He has gone further than the distance he reached a few weeks back. He began to study 「 [a/n: Does Suga even study?] 」the area and saw a wooden fence, he followed where it was leading to until the fence got higher than his height. He saw a figure jump down the fence, stumbling for a bit as it ran away. He saw a gate open, releasing 12 cloaked men riding horses, they followed the figures direction. Suga, being the curious person he is, followed them without anyone knowing. One of them caught up to the running figure, grabbing it by its arm, tossing it on his shoulder. All of them stopped, including Yoongi. The cloaked men pulled their hood down and surrounded the person they caught, forming a circle around it. Suga watched closely as one man climbed down his horse and kicked the person's side. He squinted his eyes to get a clear view of the man. He was short like Suga, he had owl eyes and a puppy face, his annoyed expression suprised so much of him since it clearly didn't match his face. He heard the person they caught wince in pain while clutching his side. He saw the men's faces and they didn't want to talk due to the intense atmosphere around them. One of them with tan skin spoke,

"Kyungsoo, let's head back. We were only ordered to take him back alive so please don't hurt him. The king wouldn't be pleased." He said. Kyungsoo turned to him and sighed, climbing back up to his horse. His annoyed expression still plastered on his face as they left with the person being carried by one of them. Suga couldn't believe what he saw, why build a fence around them when nothing will threaten them. He had to another story to tell his princess when he gets back. He sprinted away, found himself back home with his dearest possession.

The Female was really happy that her guardian loved her masterpiece that was painted on a wall beside her bed. His words melted her heart as he complimented her artwork, she was happy that he was proud of her.

Winter came so soon and The Female was already folding paper to keep herself calm, her guardian wasn't back yet and the snow was surrounding the tower grounds. She was distracted when she heard a familiar call, she quickly glanced down and saw her guardian waving at her. She immediately pulled him up and hugged him tightly.
"Miss me already?"

"Snow is starting to cover the whole forest y'know!! I was really worried!" she exclaimed, surprising the older. He smoothened her hair that was quite messy, calming her down. He pulled out a small smile as she looked up at him.

"We need to talk." her words seem so serious that his smile faded. She led him to the couch, pulling him down to sit. He was already fiddling his thumbs when she stared at him for a moment, he wasn't sure if the topic they'll be discussing will be so damn serious because her eyes were steady and yet nervous at the same time. She finally sighed, holding his hand, squeezing it lightly.

"I know we've been inside the tower for already the rest of our lives and I was thinking of exploring the outside with you." his mouth opened as he tried to speak but then she cut him off by raising a hand, "I'm 18 already, not a kid anymore. Maybe we could find so much there, know the nameless things created by humankind. I expect so much of everything, Yoongi and I can't stop wondering inside my room. To be honest, I'm tired of being here sitting all day doing whatever I want inside an isolated tower. Yoongi, please, I want to..." he suddenly hugged her when she was about to continue.

"I've been wanting for you to say that because," he pulled away. "I've found so much outside that could be so capable of living our lives to the fullest." 「[a/n: I sense someone is blushing.]」From that day on, the two prepared for their long journey and waited for winter to fade.
