Kaisoo One Shots

Last Summer Days

Being a rich boy doesn't amaze Kyungsoo, instead, it bores him to death.

He could have anything, just anything, that he wants; needed or even useless. With just a single flick of his hand, the maximum time he has to wait is just a night.

He needs something, he gets it.

He wants something, he gets it.

It's just that – there's one thing he could not get, no matter how much money he has.

He needs and wants affection.

His father is one of the top five richest men in the whole country. His mother is one of the most admired socialites in the whole country. His brother is one of the most successful public speakers in the whole country. His cousin is one of the most uprising actresses in the whole country.

And Kyungsoo?

He is one of the upcoming doctors.

And he is not sure he wants that.

His house is huge. His apartment is luxurious. His phone is limited edition. His car is on the top price. His credit cards are uncountable.

His heart... is empty.

With a determined thought and the excuse of resting from his hectic activities, Kyungsoo rents a small house by the beach for healing.

Not that his family cares.

For his whole life, Kyungsoo yearns for something normal. At least just a bit.

Just a bit.

He wants to go to the public school, getting scolded of sleeping in the middle of lessons, or playing pranks on his friends, having crushes, hanging out in the café across the train station, fighting with siblings, having family lazy time, getting into a relationship, broken heart, tasting alcohols, trying one-night-stand, and all that normalcy.

But no.

He gets into the private school, having the straight A's, having chauffeur driving him around, attending charities, dinner by himself, sleeping in a too-huge room, and all that high-class thingies.

Maybe 'normalcy' for Kyungsoo is quite different from what other people think 'normalcy' is.

Kyungsoo wants to have parents who come to him, asking him how his day was, telling him how proud they are with his latest test, or maybe congratulate him sincerely on his birthday.

Kyungsoo wants to have a brother who discusses action movies with him, asking for tricks in studies, cooking themselves instant noodles when their parents are not home.

Kyungsoo wants to have a family who he could always turn to, whenever he is feeling happy or sad or disappointed or angry, and they will always ready to catch him when he falls, telling him that everything will be okay and that he has done his best.

Kyungsoo wants –

What is it that he wants?

He no longer knows.

His parents don't care why he is leaving his studies behind when he excuses himself for his healing time.

The beach is beautiful. The sun is bright. The sands are warm under his feet. The water is cold and refreshing. The waves are high yet entertaining. The other people are relaxing. The children are playing the sands or even licking a stripe up of their ice cream.

Kyungsoo, now clad in a simple loose white shirt and brown short pants, stands at the door of the beach house he rents for the whole month while watching the scene unveils in front of him.
