Le point de vue de Anhye

Anhye's POV

"I burned it all."

Nothing seemed real. I found Hoseok in the ruins of buildings, sitting on the ground with his eyes burning red and whole body wrapped in bloody aura. I dropped to my knees. I couldn't believe it. He had murdered people. He had murdered so many. Just a few hours ago, we were laughing and watching fireworks together. He never would have done something like this. This wasn't him at all.

"I'm sorry you saw all this," he chuckled. "I was supposed to go without you seeing me like this."

I furrowed my eyebrows. "Go?"

"I'll be punished of course. We should never interfere with people's lives, let alone take them." He closed his eyes and sighed. "You know what will happen, don't you?"

I bit my lips. "Hobi-"

"I couldn't ignore. People were getting worse and I didn't want to add to that. If I continued like this, I would've gone insane," he said with more emotions than he ever showed me. He sounded desperate and in pain. "There's only two ways for us, Deadly Sins. Continue like this forever or disappear forever... At least I do this and then disappear forever."

I clenched my eyes shut and covered my face. It was too much. "Why did you have to do this?"

"I just want to stop," he whimpered. "I just want it to stop. I can't do this anymore."

I lunged at him and grabbed his shoulders. "Why didn't you tell me?! Why?! Why did you act like everything was fine?! Why did you keep smiling and laughing?!"

"Because no one cares about my emotions. It was always better to act and get on someone's good side."

"What do you mean by that?!" I screamed, my own emotions overflowing.

"That boy you helped yesterday... I had a similar life as him. I grew up with domestic abuse and depression. At some point, it became a trauma. Still, I had to live and I learned to hide my emotions and act how people wanted. Like you, I hate loud people because it reminds me of the times my parents yelled at me." He smiled. "But I learned to be louder than them. And I'm sorry for being loud around you."

Emotions clogged up my throat and I kept choking on my words. What could I even say to him?

"I really like happiness. And I wanted to act happy. But I guess I was so broken that the only strong feeling that I could have was anger. Anger at everything."

I never imagined how he felt. He was always smiling like he was happy. He was calm and controlled. I was always confused about how he was like that when he was a Deadly Sin, but he was in pain all this time. I was too careless. Too stupid.

"But I was happy today, spending the day like a normal person with you." He gave me that smile again and it made my eyes blur with tears. "Thank you for standing with me. Even though it's on the opposite side."

"No, Hoseok-"

Suddenly, angels appeared around us and announced what he committed. My whole body was ridden with shivers in fear of what was happening. They grabbed him, jerking him up, and tried to take him away.

Panic took over me and I jumped up, screaming, "No! Let him go!"

They ignored me and disappeared with him, making me gasp in horror. My legs and arms trembled. I teleported to every place that I could think of, then finally found him with God and Lucy in a joint room.

"I'll fix the damages!" I tore my voice, begging them. "I'll- I'll take responsibility for not stopping him! I'll do anything, please!"

"You can't," God said. "Rules were broken. He killed many humans and directly interfered with lives."

"He betrayed his sin," Lucy added. "Punishment must be granted."

I scowled at him. "When did he even-"

"Carry on with the procedure," God ordered and I turned to Hoseok held by the angels.

"Don't do it, Patience." He smiled that stupid smile again. "Just let me go."

"No...." A tear rolled down my cheek. "No!"

He closed his eyes with his smile still gracing his lips and mouthed, "Thank you for caring about me." When he opened his eyes at me, he disappeared with the angels and my knees buckled.

It was silent.

Everything was silent.

And I cried for the first time in a long while.
