"ugh.. what happened?"

yuta suddenly opened his eyes from his sudden state of fainting just now. his breathing was rapid, as if he still feels zaya's presence there.

no one answered him so he went out from doyoung's room , only to see doyoung sitting on the dining table..sipping his coffee.

"doyoung, you alright?" he hold doyoung's shoulder and patted it as he asks the question.

but yuta was greeted with something more surprising.

"no i'm not" doyoung answered yuta's question with an eye that scares him.

"doyoung, your ey—"

"yes i know yuta that's why i am not okay" doyoung faced yuta, earning a lazy face from him.

"that shitty woman fuses herself inside me. that's why i have this odd black eye" doyoung slumps his body on the table. yuta just watches him, with his mouth agape.

"god, i never expected this.. i guess your heartbreak was strong enough for her to fuse herself inside you" yuta pinch his nose bridge. he just wanted to hit the woman with the baseball bat— or maybe he'll hit doyoung with the baseball bat instead.

"shut up. i suffered depression at the same time— having my parents abusing me mentally wasn't a pleasant thing to have. i lived 10 years like that; even worse when i could understand why they did that at the age of five."

he snapped at the other one, making yuta raise his hands— understanding what doyoung meant.

"i know. it ended when you were 15, when they suddenly had vanished from your house. when they didn't come back , like forever. i'm sorry bro.. but, this is never ending. you were strong enough to keep up with your studies even though you suffered a lot" yuta sighed and drink doyoung's coffee.

"i'm not complaining. just, tired i guess. exhausted"

"bro.. ask keiko to help you. i don't know how she could help you, maybe you could have sex with her— SHIT NO THAT SLIPPED OUT DONT HIT ME" yuta shield himself from getting hit with doyoung's empty mug.

"if you're saying bullshit then get out, let me do the hard way then" his eyes burned when yuta accidentally said something stupid.

"what hard way? suicide?" the stupid one chuckled. he shouldn't say this.

"that's a good idea bro! wait till i take the knives and stab you first, then i'll kill myself" doyoung blurted out sarcasm, as he rolled his eyes.

"no, i'm serious. your problem starts from keiko right? why not give it a try?"

doyoung looked at yuta. he had his mind jumbled up with the situation.

the serene night sky making its way into keiko's eye. she looked at the star filled- sky. it was magnificent.

it was more than she could asked for. it was imprinted inside her heart. however, she still couldn't get doyoung out of her mind. was she sane?

she stood there by the balcony. the wind blew its cool breath, making keiko's hair ride along.

"oii, keiko! get inside! you're going to get a cold if you stay out too long" her mother yelled across the house.

keiko chuckled.

"alright mama, don't worry. i'll be inside in a minute" she blurted back loudly. she look up at the sky once again.

"somehow doyoung, you never fail to make my heart beat irrationally throughout the years"
