" We ignore truths for temporary happiness..."

- A/N

One side, Moon is questioning his unvalued existence while on the other side, Sun is trying to steady his fading light for his moon.

His moon... none other than it is,

Vegas Theerapanyakul..

" Danii, thank you..." Pete was thankful for the other being there for him like an elder brother.

" It's my pleasure Sir."

" I know you're not protecting me just because I give you money."

" Sir, the efforts I am getting to protect you are not enough for the things you and your mother gave me. Both of you raised this orphan as yours. So, I owe you a lot." The bodyguard thanked from the bottom of his heart. Eventhough, this bodyguard doesn't like to open his thoughts to others, he never forgot how Mrs. Jimin and Pete took care of him.

" I think, it is enough Danielle."

" What do you mean Sir?"

" I meant that it is the time to think about yourself. You've been working hard and I never saw you think about yourself." Pete said leaning to his chair while patting Venice to put him to sleep.

" I saw how Mac looked at you. I can tell that kid is so in to you." Pete chuckled after seeing how the grown man's face turned in to red. " You like him too?" Pete teased Danielle as to kill the boredom in the house.

" S-Sir, i-if you l-laugh o-out loud, your wounds will h-hurt." Pete couldn't help but laugh so hard by seeing his right hand man being this shy.

" Broooo, I was right. You're in love with my Mac- Aww.. Ouch.." Pete shut his own mouth from shouting, because the little prince was sleeping
peacefully.

" Look, I told you." Danielle whispered to Pete not wanting to make any noise. Pete just nodded and kept patting Venice.

Both of them were silent for minutes. They were deeply lost in their thoughts, one was thinking how his behaviour hurts his loved one, Vegas.
And the other was thinking about ways to save his boss from this mess, so Pete can live happily until his last breath.

Danielle had lot of questions in his mind. He always thought why are evil people like Jehian and Korn live happily while innocent and kind ones has to suffer? Both of the old folks ruined their children's lives. Why can't they just let their children to live like real humans?

He hated how Jehian punished Pete for loving someone. Why punish for such a stupid thing?

Danielle was so hurt by the way Pete reacting to everything so positively and still he has that cute smile fixed on his face like a portrait.

" Sir, what about you?"

" Huh?" Pete was confused by the sudden question from his bodyguard.

" Sir, what about you? When are you gonna think about yourself?" Danielle desperately asked from Pete who was dumbfounded.

" M-Me.. I- I am g-good." Hesitation could be visible in Pete's voice. He instantly faked a smile and lowered his head, so the other can't see his teary eyes.

" Sir, I know you love Mr. Vegas so much. You've been loving and admiring that young man for more than a decade. So, why don't you go and talk him things out?" Danielle wanted his boss to be happy. He wanted to see Pete's genuine smile, not that fake smile he give to the whole world. Danielle knew only one person can bring that real smile. That person is one and only Vegas.
