** TEEWHITE AU
The doorbell chimed and echoes through the empty computer shop. It was awfully quiet, awfully peaceful. Peaceful enough for White to spend the rest of the day skipping from his class because he finds it really boring and the lectures, he had already read it at home. He looked around; there are no students in the shop. Well, what to expect? Classes are still on going.
"Uncle, for one h---"
But his world suddenly stopped when he saw this awfully looking guy. Awfully looking in a sense that he looks so spent; he looks so tired because those dark circles under his eyes were literally screaming. Still, something about him made White curious.
Why is the store attendant sleeping while on duty? Why does he look so tired? Why does he looked like a high schooler just like him? And why does he look so sad?
Sad.
And White cannot even understand why he felt a prick on his heart. Like there was something about this guy that makes him drawn over him.
Why does he look so sad even though he's sleeping? Is he actually crying in his dreams because why are tears coming from his eyes? Is life being so hard on him that's is why he's also skipping class just to have a part-time job?
Why?
Why does White felt like this isn't the first time he saw this guy? Like he has known him already? Like this guy had already became part of his life for a period of time?
And why is White's heart aching?
It is fine.
Because I'll be waiting.
What?
What are those words? Where did it came from? Why is he hearing it now? Did someone speak? No, wait. Why did it felt like it already happened before? Why did it felt like he is getting a déjà vu?
Waiting? Who is waiting who?
It is fine? Is it really fine at all?
You can shoot me instead, but please let him go! He has no part in any of this.
Let him go.
What? What's happening?
What are these scenes suddenly playing on his head? Why is he there looking scared, frightened for his life? Is it his memories? But why can't he remember it all? Why is it so confusing?
Why is this guy also there? And why is he crying White's name? begging the man pointing a gun to let him go? Why is this guy crying so desperately? Begging for the guy not to hurt White; like his life depends on him; like White was actually his life.
Tee, why are you talking to me like this?
I didn't go with anybody else. I only got you.
Tee? That's his name? But why is it so familiar? What happened? Why is he begging to Tee? Why is Tee telling him to go away? Why is Tee spitting those spiteful words? Why is Tee telling him that he's filthy? What did he do wrong? What did White do wrong this time?
Tee, don't leave me.
No.
This isn't his memories, right? How can this be White's memories? This is the first time he met this guy right in front of him, so it is not his memories.
Maybe, he's just dreaming.
Yeah, that's it. He's just dreaming. And if he wakes up, this nightmare will be over. Like it didn't happen; like Tee didn't exist.
Tee, you told me I was your smile.
He did? Did he really say that? White was Tee's smile?
But why is he holding a knife right now? and why is he trying to kill him? Did he do something wrong? Did he anger Tee? Why does it sound like Tee already hated him? Hated him for what?
And suddenly, he felt something. He felt something piercing through his skin; through his body and it is so painful, so damn painful he wanted to scream.
But he cannot. He cannot scream. All he can do right now is to cry; cry right in front of Tee.
He remembers now. White remembers it all now. How his loved one cried while slowly pushing the knife towards him; killing him with his own two hands. And how he repeatedly saying 'I'm sorry' to him.
NO.
This isn't true at all. Tee won't hurt him. His Phi will never hurt him!
"White. Darling, wake up. White!"
And it was as if life breathe again on White; like he finally got into the surface after staying in the bottom of the ocean. Like the light finally entered his dark life.
Was it all a dream?
Please let it be a dream.
"P'Tee..." and his voice cracked. White's tears started to fell like raindrops from a heavy cloud.
"White, what's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"
But White didn't answer Tee's question as he hurriedly hug his lover so tight they almost morphed into one. And he is still crying; crying because he was glad it was all but a dream.
He was glad his P'Tee is right in front of him.
White was glad he didn't lose his P'Tee.
