Yuri and Yona of Dawn

Chapter 6 Made a Choice

Yuri had walked into the room she left Tae-Yeon in. She picked him up, resting her head on his shoulder. His panting as he slept. Yuri stroked his hair. She started humming softly as she rested there.

When can we do this again?
When can I see you again?
When can we do this again?
When can I see you again?
When can we do this again?
When can I see you again?

Switch on the sky and the stars glow for you
Go see the world 'cause it's all so brand new
Don't close your eyes 'cause your future's ready to shine
It's just a matter of time, before we learn how to fly
Welcome to the rhythm of the night
There's something in the air you can't deny

It's been fun but now I've got to go
Life is way too short to take it slow
But before I go and hit the road
I gotta know, 'til then,
When can we do this again?
Oh oh oh oh
When can I see you again?
Oh oh oh oh
When can we do this again?
Oh oh oh oh
I gotta know, when can I see you again?
(When can I see you again?)

Joined at the hip, yeah your sidekick needs you
Life is a trip and the road map leads you
Look all around at the mountains you haven't climbed
It's just a matter of time, before we learn how to fly
Welcome to the rhythm of the night
There's something in the air you can't deny

It's been fun but now I've got to go
Life is way too short to take it slow
But before I go and hit the road
I gotta know, 'til then,
When can we do this again?
Oh oh oh oh
When can I see you again?
Oh oh oh oh
When can we do this again?
Oh oh oh oh
I gotta know,
When can I see you again?

Don't close your eyes 'cause your future's ready to shine
It's just a matter of time, before we learn how to fly
Welcome to the rhythm of the night
There's something in the air you can't deny
So let me know before I wave goodbye

When can I see you again?
Oh oh oh oh
When can we do this again?
Oh oh oh oh
When can I see you again?
Oh oh oh oh
When can we do this again?
Oh oh oh oh

Yeah, it's been fun but now I've got to go
Life is way too short to take it slow
But before I go and hit the road
Tell me when
When can I see you again?
When can I see you again?
Tell me when
When can I see you again?

Yuri felt Tae-Yeon shift in her arms, relaxing a bit. Yuri smiled, listening to the rhythm of her heartbeat. Hak was leaving... Knowing Yona, she would probably leave but its also a big possibility that she'd stay. Yuri squeezed her eyes shut, begging tears not to fall. Rena's voice. 'Yuri. People still need you. Don't lose heart.'

Yuri looked at the sky outside the window. The moonlight was bright. Yuri heard someone yell, "Han Dae is back!"

Yuri turned to the door as a man ran in, holding medicine. Yuri gently shook the small boy awake. Tae-Yeon opened his eyes. Yuri saw her sister get up with a jolt. Yuri felt Tae-Yeon drink the medicine in her arms. She let him go, silently walking away. Tae-Yeon was smiling as she left. "Rena." Yuri turned. He smiled his biggest smile since she met him. "Thank you. You sing really well."

Yuri smiled. "Thank you... For everything, Tae-Yeon."

Yuri was about to walk out when someone carrying the "dead" Han Dae ran through. Yuri slowly made her way after them. Yona ran after her sister. Yuri turned as something bumped into her. "Make way, make way!"

"Oh, Lena, Rena." the lady said.

"Grand lady." Yuri heard her sister reply.

She felt something land in her face. "Good timing, help me with these."

Yuri let them plop into her arms. The blankets were light yet warm. Yuri followed after her sister. When she entered the hall, her heart plummeted. Her eyes watered. Her legs felt like they were losing all power. She felt people pushing her to one side as the rushed by. Yuri kept her eyes on the injured. Her stomach ached in pain. 'Father... What should I do? I'm so weak... I can bring harm to so many people...'
