TW: mentions of violence
Meixiang stood there
Her eyes fixed on the ground
A familiar voice reached to her
It was Jo
The boy stepped out and grabbed her hand
He had enough watching her begin a victim of those people he pushed trough
He hold meixiang hand tightly, as she followed his lead
The girl let go of his tight grip as they were far enough
It was all wrong , she's dragging him down in hell
- I appreciate your concern , but you should stay away from now on , don't get involved in my matters...
- I've been away way too long. It's okay , they won't hurt you anymore , I promise. - Jo smiled at her
It wasn't okay at all
It was never okay
Yet she wanted to believe him
Yet she didn't meant what she said
Yet she didn't want him to leave her...
Meixiang broke down once she got home
It's been such a challenge to hold back these days
She was feeling exhausted, it's like the whole world has turned upside down
The girl felt arms wrapping around her body
It was nicholas who caressed her gently
She could feel the warmth of another person
Thing she missed so much all these year , thing she couldn't be able to feel , as she hugged him burying her face into his chest
The boy hearth ached as he held her weak body
He felt helpless for not begin able to do more
His chest tightened....
It was a cold and dark midnight
Shoutings would be heard on the street
It wasn't anything unusual around the area
Yi Xiang walked around the building, trying to figure out where all the shoutings came from , as they slowly began to sound as screams
The boy ran into two adults
They were having a heated argument
The woman was visibly begin harassed by the male
The man was tall and it was clearly that he wasn't in good state , he reeked on alcohol and was begin very aggressive with his actions , as he smashed a bottle into the wall surrounding the tiny space they were
The bottle broke , the man began waking towards the woman who was helplessly laying on the ground at that moment
She couldn't stand up on her legs
She trembled in fear before him as he kept approaching
He lifted and swung his hand towards her
He was ready to strike when Yi Xiang blocked the way
Blood dripped over the ground , as he hissed out of pain
The man clearly got frustrated
Without a second thought he pulled out a pocket knife and reached to Yi Xiang , who once again tried to protect the woman
Until finally he felt his body getting weaker
His knees bend in , he felt a sharp pain which made him close his eyes and completely drop on the ground
The boy put his hand over his stomach
It was wet , it didn't stop getting wet
He couldn't bear the pain , he couldn't fight back
Tears kept falling down his cheeks as he watched the woman begin stabbed to death by the adult , he couldn't scream , he couldn't do anything as he himself was slowly giving up strength
