The Purple Eyes | Kim Seungmin

44

His body hit the ground with a large thud. The younger male let out a chuckle, plunging the knife to create a deep wound.

He gasped, trying his best to hold in the pain. "Y-you won't g-gain anything f-from t-this. My f-f-family isn't that s-special."

The perpetrator chuckled once more, only shrugging his shoulders before yanking the knife back. "We'll just have to see, huh?"

  "Miyu.."

   "Miyu."

   "Miyu!"

  Jumping up in a sweat, her glowing eyes met his worried ones. "Are you okay?"

  She took a moment to look around the room before taking a deep breath. "I dreamt of my fathers murder." She blurted. Her tone was desperate, breaking the males heart.

  "I'm here, it's alright. Would you like a glass of water?"

Sun brightly lit the room, blinding Seungmin into waking up. The mage let out a small grunt of annoyance, going still the moment he realized.

Miyu had her head on his shoulder as she slept. Her hands were wrapped around his arm, keeping him close while they both slept sitting up.

He took the moment to admire her.

Feeling a small smile creep onto his face, he quickly left a small peck on her forehead before carefully leaning his head back on hers.

Her legs stretched out as a yawn left her lips. Within just a few seconds their eyes met, a pink hue covering both of their cheeks.

"Good morning." He crunched his nose. Cutely giggling, the girl looked down shyly. "Good morning."

   Jinae rubbed the girls shoulders as they sat at the dinner table with untouched breakfast. Encouraging the younger to speak, Byeol waited patiently.

   "Kimiko is dead, unnie. Yukari called me.."

  "I expected that."

The three girls turned towards Seungmin. Pressing his lips into a line, he waved his hand to say hi. "Sorry. I should have announced myself better. Miyu will be down in a few minutes, it is probably best to wait before you tell her."

An eger knock was heard at the door as the four all shared confused glances. Slowly approaching the door, they were all surprised to see a distressed Donghyun.

  Everyone gathered in the living room around him, not trusting him one bit.

"What do you want?" Jinae spat. placing his hands together in a begging placement, he bowed deeply to the floor. With his face to the ground, he took a deep breath. "You guys aren't safe here anymore. Majo... has been stalking this cottage. He.. and the other two.. Sujin and Moon.. They killed that girl..I believe she was a friend of the sisters.."

  Staying quiet, Jinae wrapped her arms around Airi. "And why should we trust you?"

  "He is telling the truth." Seungmin blurted, gaining a reassuring nod from Byeol. "Yeah.. he is."

  "Are you two.." He trailed off, looking directly towards the younger sister. "Are you really the purple eyed twins?"

  What seemed to be on demand, everyone was shocked to see the younger willingly changing her eyes. Now glowing a beautiful lavender, she nodded. "I think we are."

"How did you learn to.."

  She only shrugged towards her girlfriend. "I am not exactly sure. Maybe.. it was after Sujin and Moon attacked Miyu and I."

  Byeol took a deep breath. "Where is Shimajo now?"

  "I don't know, but he isn't here. That's all I can confirm."

  Looking at the shameless man on the ground, she shook her head and turned towards the others. "We need to move. Seungmin, go get Miyu ready. Girls, go pack. You."

  He flinched, causing her to let out a chuckle. "If you really want to help us, go back and see what Shimajo is up to. You are the only one who can get close to him."

"N-no I-"

"What's.. going on?" Miyu appeared on the stairs as Airi grabbed her arm. "We have to move somewhere else, Majo found us."

  Her eyes grew wide and met Seungmins as he nodded. Deciding to listen, she turned around and walked upstairs with Airi and Jinae.
