Chapter 6 - Caged soul.

I feel like...

A bird inside of a cage.

Trapped.

I can't fly wherever I want to because I should stay no matter what happened.

I can't do what my heart wants me to.

It's suffocating.

What's my wings are there for, if I can't sway them on the blue sky?

I see how the other birds flaps theirs above the clouds. I watched how they chase each other with loud laughter.

Where's mine?

I've burried it between the iron tiles of my 'home'.

I don't have any right to live a dream.

Because I'm just a caged bird after all.

Jongin sighed as he clicked the post-button on his laptop. He had done another post of his blog. A must to do list before he went to sleep.

Jongin turned his laptop off and headed to the bed. He climbed on top of it and laid his body.

Jongin couldn't sleep, and it's been 2.15 AM already.

"Fly..." Jongin muttered for a while before closed his eyes.

It took like forever before Jongin slowly drifted off to his sleep.

His dreams were abstracts. In that dream, he was sitting in a large beautiful garden. Then he saw some giants made their way to him, forced him to do build a house that made of candy. Jongin agreed and started to move the candies to a super big storage. Then suddenly a rabbit came out from nowhere and grabbed his wrist, dragging him away from the half-built house.

Jongin was confused and scared that the rabbit would kill him because it's bigger than him. But then the rabbit brought him to a beautiful place. The view was breathaking and Jongin gasped in shock.

Then the rabbit turned his head around.

It was a man.

Jongin couldn't recognize his face. Not when the boy suddenly lean forward and kiss him.

Jongin widened his eyes.

The boy's lip felt soft against him. His heart started to beat two times faster and his blood pumping harder, sent a vibrant deep red color to his cheeks. Jongin's fingers rested on the boy's chest, slightly curled and slowly he closed his eyes.

And then...

"JONGIN!"

Jongin gasped as he opened his eyes wide. He immediately straightened his body to realized that he was back inside of his room.

His mom called him!

Jongin turned his head to his right.

07.13!!! THE FUCK!!! His first class started on 07.45!

Shit. He'd make sure to never take any morning classes again on the next semester.

Jongin dashed toward the washroom, took a good shower as fast as he could and ran outside to dressed himself. Jongin managed to finish everything in 20 minutes. He grabbed his notes and ran down the stair. Mrs nd Mr Kim were still in the dining table but Taemin's nowhere to be seen.

"Where's Taemin?" Jongin asked as he rushed down to the dining table.

"He's outside already. Probably to catch up the train first. You are so slow, you know."
