Chapter 58- It's raining ⚔️

.

"Cale-nim.."

"It's raining, let's go back.."

In the area with the least bushes, was where a particular bench was sat.

Heavy rain appears to pierce through the gloomy sky, with each water droplets falling down ever so continuously.

It was a type of rainfall that could almost dig the hole in the ground, if left for a few more hours.

Though, however gloomy the atmosphere was, a figure was still there, sitting all alone among the unusually greenish field.

As soon as Barrow left, Kim Rok Soo remained, quietly glueing in his seat on the somewhat drenched bench.

What was probably going on in his mind in that short period of time?

- there was no telling that.

All Choi Han ever knew was the fact that Cale did not move.

Ever so gloomily, he sat there, in the middle of the heavy rain, as though he had lost in his thoughts.

No matter how much time had passed.

No matter how violent the thunder strikes, beyond the distant sky.

Even the sudden change of the climate seemed to sympathize with the lone boy.

Yet, however soaking cold he was, the red-haired did not get up from the bench.

'how painful must it be..?'

...for Cale to become like this?

Recalling what happened a moment ago, Choi Han grimly bit his already-reddened lips.

.

"Why did you still keep this name that I gave you?"

Expressionlessly, Kim Rok Soo asked, beneath the gloomy clouds that were slowly dropping the slight bit of rain.

While he had somehow thought of some possibilities, the red-haired did not make it obvious.

He kept on standing before Barrow, fixing his unperturbed gaze on the similar redhead man.

However, at the moment that the other side heard the question, Barrow abruptly smiled.

If even Kim Rok Soo could somehow read the unobvious thoughts of his friend whom he had long separated from..

Why couldn't Barrow do the same?

Comparably to how Kim Rok Soo accurately guessed his thought, the boy's complicated mind unknowingly echoed in the man's head.

'Could it, possibly be- very very little possibly be that he still cares?'

Despite the expressionlessness that he displays, Kim Rok Soo held such a thought that gradually betrayed his indifference attitude.

For the him who was desperate for a chance to return things back to what it used to be.

'Perhaps, he still cares.'

Perhaps, Barrow still cares.

Perhaps, despite him wanting to hate Kim Rok Soo for making him suffer, he also could not let go of the fact that the boy was once a precious friend to him.

The very first one to reach out to the young him when no one does.

The only ever one who treated him as a human being and not a filthy orphan.
