Pain of Wrath | Hoseok fanfiction [Completed]

⚜️15⚜️ - Deafening Silence

⊱Il me manque⊰

I miss him

┏━━━━━━༻♔༺━━━━━━┓

Years passed after I lost him. Sun rose and set like nothing happened. The Virtues were even happy that he was gone. I stopped speaking to them after hearing how glad they were.

Everywhere I went, I was alone. His presence was always there that I felt empty without him. Silence was accompanying me in his place.

I sat on a rooftop, clutching the smiley badge he gave me. I rubbed it with my thumb as I stared at the gray clouds above. It was going to rain soon. Maybe the clouds can cry in my stead.

I couldn't go on when he disappeared. It was unfair. I should have stopped him. I should have known what was happening to him. I always thought that if I started caring, I would end up hurting. But if I cared, he could still be here with me, laughing and pointing at the badge he gave me.

"What's this?"

His lips stretched into a grin. "A smile."

"For what?"

"For making you smile of course."

"It doesn't make me smile, you jerk," I shouted, clenching the yellow badge. "How can I smile when you did this to me? How can I smile when you left me? How can I smile without you?"

I loved peace and quiet. No agitation. No pain.

I hated him. He was loud. Annoying. Always getting into my business and acting friendly with me.

After he was gone, the silence was deafening. I hated the silence. I hated peace and quiet.

I missed his voice. I missed his loudness. His loud laugh, his loud cheers. His loud red hair. His sparkling eyes, heart shaped grin, beautiful face full of joyous glow.

There was only pain in the silence now. I couldn't move on. I should have saved him. Because I never cared about anything, I lost him. It was my fault so why was I still here?

What should I do now?

"Anhye."

I faced Humility who appeared beside me. "Yes?"

"Just because Wrath is gone, don't slack off too much," he warned, adding fuel to my anger. "And since your Virtue has no Sin, you may be released soon, too."

Released...

While he was erased, I would indulge in eternal rest? I could never.

"Did you... dye your hair?"

I frowned at him. "What?"

"It's a little dark around its roots," he said, unsure.

"I get it. Leave," I mumbled, sounding a little annoyed, but he let it be, disappearing.

How was I supposed to be in paradise after what happened. I didn't want to. I couldn't.

The day went on and I used my powers to kill the anger that was bubbling within annoying people. I came across a group of children who were punching and kicking a boy just because he made them tick. I came across a boss who yelled at his employee for making him rage. And the employee was nearly in tears, barely holding on.

I brushed my fingers across each of their shoulders and placated them for a moment. The next day, same things would repeat and they would lose hope. I would lose hope.

It was sickening.

Yells, violence, murders, deaths... Hoseok was right.

I could atone for my mistakes. And like him, I could at least do something before disappearing.
