Insanity

The Harsh Truth

The dark voice echoes through the whole yard, reaching the loving couple's ears in an instant. The delightful moment turns to a moment of tension and upset one again. Woohyun and Myungsoo slowly release their embrace, and give each other a worrying look; Myungsoo's gaze turns to a cold glare of anxiety and fear. Woohyun grabs Myungsoo's hand, recognising the voice instantly... They slowly turn their heads to the source of the voice, where they see a shadow slowly approaching.

A few seconds later, a tall figure emerges from the shadows. His arms and crossed and he has a smooth stride in his step, despite the mud. His hair blows fiercely in the wind, but this doesn't affect his balance at all. He chuckles with every step he takes, and his stare contains a look of empowerment and authority; a look which sends chills down Myungsoo and Woohyun's spines.

Woohyun and Myungsoo see the figure emerge from the shadows and slowly stand up; their hands now intertwined with each other. They simultaneously turn to face the man who's identity is now apparent. Woohyun takes a sharp exhale and falls to the ground in shock. His vision is blurry and his head ha began to hurt... He thought the ordeal with him was now over.... Myungsoo falls down to comfort Woohyun, despite this being hard for him also. Myungsoo also prioritised Woohyun over him, that's something Woohyun loves about him; his selflessness. Myungsoo kneels down by Woohyun, whilst trying to process who this man really is...

It suddenly hits him.. same hair, same glare in his eyes, same powerful stance... Myungsoo takes a second to compose himself after realising who this man is...

the man from the office..

Myungsoo's heart is racing... He stands up once again, preparing himself for the truth... something he still wasn't sure about just yet... Myungsoo takes a deep breath, and his anger and frustration towards this man builds up inside rapidly... Adrenaline is flowing through his veins. He clenches his fists, and takes a step towards him... Before Myungsoo has a chance to say anything... he hears a stutter come from behind him; a quiver is present in his voice and his breaths are quick and short.

'Sunggyu...?!' Myungsoo turns and looks down at Woohyun. Woohyun reaches out to Myungsoo to ask him up. Myungsoo is hesitant.. but helps Woohyun stand once again. Myungsoo glares at Woohyun. His eyes are shaking and his hands are trembling by his sides. Myungsoo takes several deep breaths and looks Sunggyu up and down for a few seconds. Sunggyu eventually speaks once more, breaking the tension in the air.

'hmm. Hello Woohyun.' Sunggyu glances at Woohyun, trailing Woohyun's dirty, ragged hair and clothes. After making Woohyun feel even more intimidated than ever, Sunggyu slowly turns his head towards Myungsoo and looks analyses Myungsoo from his toes up to his head. This makes Myungsoo feel very insecure. Myungsoo maintains eye contact with Sunggyu throughout the whole interaction; showing his brave side and hiding his confusion. Myungsoo recognizes his face from somewhere before.. and not just the office...

Sunggyu breaks the silence once again. 'Hello Myungsoo.' Hearing his own name come from Sunggyu's mouth sends shivers down Myungsoo's spine... He slowly takes a step back... slowly letting his hard exterior disappear into his more vulnerable self... He is lost for words...

Hearing Myungsoo's precious name coming from Sunggyu's mouth brings anger into his body like he's never felt before.. Everything Myungsoo has told him about his past and the interaction in the office is running around Woohyun's memory.. until it eventually swallows him.. and he loses his cool.. He shouts at Sunggyu.

'HOW DARE YOU MENTION HIS NAME?' Myungsoo jolts with a scare. The shout was enough to surprise Sunggyu a little... He turns to Woohyun.. even more confusion builds up inside of him... Myungsoo has never heard Woohyun shout like this before.. but it was a protective side of Woohyun that he likes... Myungsoo slowly walks over to Woohyun, comforting him with a rub up and down his arms. Despite all the anger and confusion he is feeling at this moment. Myungsoo hides those emotions and turns his priority to calming Woohyun whilst trying to gather the truth...

'Woohyun...' Woohyun turns to Myungsoo and glances into his deep eyes.. his eyes are twinkling. 'Talk to me... Who is this..?' Myungsoo's concerns are now peering back through into his face.. Woohyun knows that now is the time for the truth to be revealed... and Myungsoo knew it was time to prepare himself... He blinks several times. Woohyun takes a sigh and steadies himself.

He walks forward and brings Myungsoon with him. Woohyun grabs Myungsoo's hand, signalling his support for his boyfriend... Sunggyu sighs.. losing patience by the second. Woohyun prepares to speak, but before he can... the harsh truth comes out wjtj a harsh tone from Sunggyu's cold mouth...

'I'm your dad.'

No remorse comes from Sunggyu at this time. Woohyun glares at Sunggyu, a look of disappointment and anger is on his face... Sunggyu chuckles at Woohyun. He rolls his eyes, and shakes his head at Woohyun... 'That's all you had to say. And you couldn't even do THAT. You really are pathetic.' Woohyun isn't phased by what he is hearing. He maintains a brave stance and fights for his pride. 'Well, I didn't want him to know that way. I was preparing to tell him in a more gentle way.. It would be better for him to hear it from someone he actually TRUSTS.' 'WELL...'

Meanwhile, Myungsoo can't believe what he's just heard... His hand slowly slips from Woohyun's. As he watches the interaction between them continue, he struggles to catch his breath... all of the bad memories from his childhood come flooding back to him. His head is pounding.. and his hearing becomes more impaired by the second. A few seconds later, all he can hear is a high pitched beep travelling though his head...

He quickly becomes unsteady.. his vision is becoming blurred. His legs give way underneath him.. and he grabs onto a gravestone to soften his fall. His head falls down by his knees and he tries to call for Woohyun; he hasn't got the strength to shout for him... he is struggling to catch his breath. The cold is getting to him at this point...

Suddenly.. his world goes black...
