reprieve for the neverland

6 - ないは夜明けまで [ Nothing until dawn ]

His eyes sparkled and dilated from the superb taste of Shoo's cooking. Yesung's lips slightly parted from the sweet savor tingling in his tongue. As if he just witnessed the heavenly grail of all foods.

"It's delicious!" Yesung complimented, his speech muffled amidst his munching of the warm, crunchy-on-the-outside and soft-in-the-inside snack.

"But we'll go now, see you soon Auntie!"
Swallowing the munched pieces of the quailed eggs and finishing it. Suddenly taking Kyuhyun's arm that took the other by surprise and instantly walking away. Raising his arm and waving a goodbye with a bright grin that reached ear-to-ear.

Kyuhyun gasped as he was left without any words to fight back from Yesung's irresistable, bright aura. Following along through Yesung's direction and swiftly picking up on the shorter's pace pace. Running down the fairly empty streets as the sunlight shone against their skin amidst the orange-hued sunset.

They both ran and ran
As Kyuhyun arrived at an unfamiliar road he tensed up slightly whilst Yesung halted his running. His breath ragged and exhausted as it panted the clean, fresh air from high up their town's lands, and he couldn't help but be in awe at the breathtakingly stunning view from slightly above their entire town even if he's went here multiple times.

"Where are we?" Kyuhyun panted out nervously as he sat down on a patch of soft, yet spiky grass. Looking behind him was most of the town right below them and the rays of light against them that left him fascinated and amazed. Causing his eyes to dilate and twinkle, and his mouth to slightly drop. The view was nothing but new and stunning to him. Infact even better than the view at the "secret" rooftop in school he loved to visit.

Yesung sat down and positioned himself to a slightly comfortable distance besides the other before Yesung remarked gleefully, "This is a path to my house! My grandma told me it's kinda a shortcut she always takes when she goes to those wet markets for groceries!" Pointing to the same upwards slope they're both sat by as they remained awkwardly quiet amidst the silent, and soft breeze that blowed against them.

"Ah... I see. It's really pretty here." Kyuhyun remarked softly as a sensation of nostalgia waved towards him. "Is this déjà vu?" He wondered amidst the beautiful moment that is tranquility.

However, even if Yesung was clearly with the other, and was interested in conversing with Kyuhyun, His mind couldn't help but drift back to think about a deceased comrade he'll mourn for eons although he knew he shouldn't at this time, a time where he's with someone else he'd just become friends and should've tried getting to know and bond by the bare minimum. "No, that's way too awkward." Kyuhyun thought, trying to drift away his thoughts about the past back to the present.

The two remained awkwardly sat besides the sidewalk, both absentminded. And meanwhile, Yesung's thoughts were beginning to wander, to Kyuhyun- to his classmates, new and old- the scenery- songs- until a thought wormed into his mind whilst he rose his head towards the gigantic mountains that towered around the entire townscape. "What were beyond those giant mountains..?" To satisfy his growing curiosity, he turned around to the other absent-minded fellow besides him, Kyuhyun.

Breaking the silence, Yesung monologized, "I wonder... What's beyond those tall mountains." Yesung twisted his head, looking at the blank-faced other whom looked down on his lap.

"Haha... I wonder too. Has anyone even went climbing there?" Kyuhyun replied hesitantly with an disingenuous, small, sly smile. Dragging the conversation that brought little company that calmed his turmoil.
