Hello, Kitty [MICHAENG]

Special Chapter | The Secret

Several years ago..

"Nayeon,"

I looked at the girl who supposed to be one of my kin. I knew I never asked why they never mentioned her, if she wasn't a Myoui.. who is she. Mackenzie's parents never said a word about it whenever I ask.

She looked at me while tugging her hair at the back of her ear, she texted me awhile ago about hanging out. We're outside and she's by the cliff, "It's cold, why didn't you wore appropriate clothes." she nagged which made me chuckle.

She went to pull me into a hug while we eye the stars, she looks at me from time to time and I was indeed comfortable. "Nayeon," I called to her which made her sigh and laugh, "Why?"

"Took you long enough to realize things." She held my hand and it felt different from before, it's like something else. I looked at her when she just stared at me.. lovingly. She cupped my cheek and traced her fingers on the sides of my face.

"Nayeon."

"I was always by your side," She smiled.. darkly which gave me the creeps but it's conflicting the comfort that I'm still feeling while I am in her embrace.

When I realized what she mean by that, she laughed hard- almost maniacally. She was the one who keeps on following me that I would always mistook for Mackenzie and Seulgi.

"You're-" I was shocked when I felt her plump lips connected to mine, I looked how she closed her eyes snd savored the moment, I was frozen.

"I loved you deeply." She caressed my face and I saw how she broke by saying those words, "However I mistook my feelings for obsession." She cried while now holding my hands, bringing it to her cheek as she cry her eye out.

I was silent, I was too surprised to with whatever was happening. She.. she is supposed to be my cousin. Yet.. she had feelings for me and she stalked me for God knows how long.

"Mackenzie knew about this." Nayeon stated, going back to her composed self. "She almost killed me yet didn't." She then distanced herself from me but only a few steps away.

"All Sons similar to that condition of yours are born with a protector," She smiled bitterly, "And they're supposed to be their bride.. yet."

"You're a son?" She shook her head.

"No, idiot. I will never resort to any incest activities." She rolled her eyes which made me laugh despite the heaviness of these revelations. "Just think of my lineage similar to Seulgi's and their relationship with the Myouis."

"Why did mom and dad never mention about this?" I asked which made her look at the sky full of stars.

"You know that Myouis are the serving type of people and how they loved traditions," She chuckled, "I negotiated them with a blood oath to never speak about it no matter what or else Mackenzie's head will fall into my hands." I was shocked to hear that. Knowing how much Nayeon cares for Mackenzie but.. does all of the things she showed us.. are the truth?

"If you are wondering if I cared for Mackenzie.. that will never be true." She run a hand through her hair while fixing it because of the wind, "How can I care for someone who took away what's mine, Kitty." She smiled at me sadly.

I saw how her orbs dilated whenever she looks at me and the transparency of the sadness that she portrays are far too painful for me to see. I hugged her tight, no words are coming out from my mouth because I am a coward and a victim of lies however I will never get angry at this girl for I thought she's the only family I had but yes she still is.

"Will you still be my cousin, Nayeon?" I selfishly asked her, she cried while hugging me tight, I just hoped that it wasn't silent but it's not because all I could hear is how she's breaking inside and it's too much for me to absorb.

"I-I will.." She answered once she composed herself again, "But let me be selfish just this once.. let me just fulfill my role as your protector." She looked at me in the eye and we stared for a minute when she locked her lips again with mine.

I let her do whatever she wants. Because after this she will still be my cousin, my one and only family. I'll let her do this..

She grab the hem of my shirt and I placed my hand on her back for balance, she kissed me with full of longing and love. I could feel the sadness in it as well, her tears are flooding through my cheeks as well.

It was a passionate yet painful kiss.
