In another life

chapter-26-Hell.

It has been approximately 4 and a half day since he woke up. Cale Henituse is very conflicted.

First, he is ......free. Too free. Technically he should be very busy. Everyone else is busy.

Even Kim rok soo who seem to be always beside him is sometimes busy. Although there woukd at least be one person accompanying him ...always.

If you ask him what he was suppose to do, Cale woukd answer he had no idea. But he is suppose to do something right?

Everyone seem to be keeping him away from work. All he does all day is eat, sleep, play and eat again.

He is basically becoming a pig at this point. Pigs are cute. But still he is basically living the slacker life Kim rok soo dream of.

Second, everyone is acting so weird. They woukd strike up ramdom conversations with him.

Or either look at him with a look of admiration or respect. When he was not looking those looks would change to sadness or regret.

Most citizens and servants would not meet his eyes...at all. He was not avoided to this degree even when he was a trash.

Heck, even Choi Han doesn't pick fights with him and just let him win every argument. Well there was never an argument in the first place because of him.

Third, He feel as if he is ....somehow strange. Like his body is strange. He has a big black mark on his chest.

Don't know where that came from. He is sleeping more and more. It woukd be more appropriate to say his sleeping schedule has been hetic.

The first day, he woke up normally. The second, he slept until 10. The third, he woke up at noon. The fourth, at about 3 or 4. And now on the fifth day he woke up at 5 in the evening. So how was he going to sleep at night.

And Cale started to lose appetite. He doesn't feel hungry or want to eat anymore.

Also his senses, Cale can feel his senses dulling. Although he doesn't let anyone know.

Fourth, Cale lost all his powers. It didn't pose a big impact as Cale has practically live 10 years of his life powerless.

But Cale can't use his powers anymore. It was weird. This lead to the fifth reason why Cale is confused.

Fifth, Cale can't remember. He can't remember when he regain his powers. How he ...got here.

His memories were all fuzzy. He can remember basic informations like people and stuff and his relations but how, when and why everything happen was fuzzy.

He feel as if he is missing something very important. Cale sigh. Am I getting too old now?

"Ah darling you're awake." A beaming Alberu came into the room and sit down on the bed. Not before giving Cale a peck on the forehead.

"Mhmm. The sun is setting." Cale as staring out of the window. "Of course it's already evening."

Alberu smile sadly. God can tell how anxious he felt when Cale hasn't woken up till noon.

He can't help but keep coming back every half an hour to check if Cale is still breathing.

He himself has notice Cale sleeping more and more and eating less and less. It worries him.

It is near. The ending is near but Alberu can't seem to let go yet. Alberu takes Cale's pale hand and planted a kiss.

"Are you hungry darling?" Cale shake his head. "Then do you want to wash up?" Cale nodded. "Good."

Alberu smile gently before pulling the string to call the servants. Some servants came in to help Cale wash up and get dress.

When the servants help Cale get up one accidentally let out a gasp. "You have gotten lighter again young master."
