"Dongyeol?" It has been thousand of times since Suji knocked on the door but there's no answer coming from her twin. She was slowly getting anxious as she remembered the things happened to Dongyeol few days ago.

He wouldn't do anything stupid, doesn't he? Suji had those words in her mind.

Suji took out her smart phone and dialled Dongyeol's number. She put the phone to her ears and she could actually heard Dongyeol's ringtone was ringing inside the room. But till the last beep, he still refused to answer the call.

And Suji knows by then, there's something wrong going on in there.

She quickly made her way downstairs to find for the maid, Ms. Hwang whom has been working here ever since before they're born, "How can I help you, Miss?" The old woman greeted Suji as she saw the girl's frowning face; as she bit her lower lips, causing it to bleed a little bit.

"Can I have Dongyeol's key room?" She asked the maid and the woman passed a warm smile to her as she nodded, before she made her way into her room and came out with a key in her hand. She gave the key to Suji and without waiting, Suji grabbed the key and rushed herself towards Dongyeol's room.

Suji unlocked the room just to see a boy was laying on the bed with blood covered his body and a piece of shattered glass in his hand. She jumped onto the bed and looked at her lifeless twin; but still breathing, and Suji couldn't help herself but burst into tears.

"Lee Dongyeol," She kept calling out for her twin's name but she knows there will be no answer coming from him.

Suddenly, she woke up when she could feel someone was calling out for her name, "Lee Suji," Suji slowly opened her eyes and could see the one whom she has been wanting to see the most, sit right infront of her.

It's all a dream. Glad that it's just a dream.

Suji was already drenching in sweats, with tears left on her cheeks as if she really cried though it's only a dream. The girl quickly pull the boy into a tight hug, startling him but then Dongyeol settled himself as he wrapped his arms around Suji's and slowly patted the girl's back.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Dongyeol asked when he realized that Suji has always having nightmares lately and it caused her to wake up with tears, drenching in sweats and even worst, sometimes her body would be full with scratches as if she hurts herself in the sleep.

Suji was sobbing, "D--- Don't leave me," She said with tears kept dripping down her cheeks, and Dongyeol's shirt was already wet due to her endless tears, "I--- I don't want to lose you,"

"Shh," Dongyeol kept the girl in his embrace, "I'm here, okay," He assured Suji, "I'm not going anywhere and I'll be here, now and forever. Trust me, Suji," The boy told his twin to put some faith and trust on him. Dongyeol knew there's no guarantee that he could keep his promise with her but he wanted to at least try to be the best brother for Suji.

The girl then pulled herself out from the hug and stared into Dongyeol's face with her puffy eyes, "I dreamt about it again," She told him, "That moment---- I could clearly see you--- blood," Suji stuttered and the tears started to come out from her big eyes again, "I-- I thought I would lose you--- but--,"

"Hey," Dongyeol put his both hands on the girl's cheeks as he passed an assurance smile towards his twin, "It's all in the past. I promised you, right, that I would never do such thing again?"

Suji smacked her lips as she bit her lower lips, "I know but then--,"

"Trust me," He took her small hand into his, "I know I may not be the best brother you ever had, but I promise that I will try to be the best for you; at least for now,"
