Shadow

🏃Don't run away👬

'Hin? When did you get your memory back?' His mind must not be in right condition because he didn't notice my abnormalities.....like at all!

I'll tell you later, just call Earth and ask him to come here with that drug.

I was wanting to tell him that but my shortness of breath made me incapable of uttering a single word. I gritted my teeth and acted tough. If I open my mouth I will definitely scare him by my gasping. Closing my eyes, I tried to concentrate on breathing normally.

'Why aren't you talking to me? Is it about that confession? It's been so long Hin! Are you still disgusted with me?' Tears sprang to his eyes.

What stupidity is this! Why are you crying for no reason!

'I promise you Hin I won't behave that way again. We will be friends if that's what you want. It was my fault anyway, why are you punishing mom dad? They will be ecstatic to see you alive and well Hin! Don't run away again please.' He was sobbing bitterly. The red rims of his eyes and moist long eyelashes made his eyes look even more beautiful. His tears gathered at his chin and dripped to the floor.

I miss mom and dad too but Tay, I am not well and won't be alive for long....

Tay...... Bro..... Don't cry....

No scratch that. He doesn't like "Bro".

Tay....... Baby..... Don't cry....

That sounds.....perfect. I wanted to laugh but couldn't.

'Forgive me for just this once, please.'

What forgiveness!

I opened my mouth with difficulty and said,

'Listen..'

'Hin.... Don't hate me please.'

If you don't stop these nonsensical words I will definitely run away. I glared at him.

'Hin? Do you really in love with that Earth? Despite knowing he is a liar and harmful person?'

Now you're asking for a beating! Just shut up and listen to me....

Finally I couldn't hold back anymore and gathering my last ounce of energy I took out my new phone and pressed Earth's number.

'Who are you calling? Hin!' He tried to snatch the phone but I blocked him with my body.

'Dr. Earth speaking...'

'Earth..'

'New? Wh...'

'I..... need the..... drug.'

'Oh god! Where are you? Office or home? Who's number is this?'

'I ....am heading.... home.'

'Okay.... Please tell me you're not driving!'

'Not.'

'Okay....okay...I'll be there. Give me 30mnts.'

'Hm.'

'How severe is it?'

'I can't....... breathe. My.......my..... whole body is........ on pins..... and needles.'

'Shit! Are you alone?'

'No.'

'Who is with you? Off? Leo? Tell him to bring coffee. Drink it slowly. Don't lie down. Sit on a chair. I am coming.'

'Hurry.......'

Tay was trying hard to stop me from making that call at first but after hearing my strained voice and gasping and the conversation, he stopped entirely with a horrified expression.
