89 - Tell Me I'm Not Alone 🇰🇵🇰🇷

Depression warning

North was laying in his bed, tears dripping from his eyes as his face held no emotion. His world had been ripped out from under him, leaving him falling through the void. What world? South Korea. That cute bastard just had to run away and elope with America. It was draining, crying every night.

He always set the table for two, making twice the food.

He always sat on his side of couch.

He always instinctively checked South's empty room.

Just in case he came back.

But he never did. Every day, North followed his routine. Wake up, get dressed, make breakfast for himself and South, wake South up, eat, have a shower, clean, run errands, come back home, make supper, watch a movie with South, put him to bed, then sleep. Now it was a broken routine.

North's alarm awoke him from his enthralled state, telling him he didn't get a minute of sleep. He sat up, wiped his new and old tears, then got dressed in his military uniform. He went downstairs to the kitchen, getting the things out to make rice and seasoned kelp.

He had to force himself not to cry when he got it ready.

Enough for two people.

Breakfast was done, and North was about to walk upstairs to wake his sleeping brother.

The one that wasn't there.

North stood in the living room connecting the stairs and the kitchen. He let memories invade his thoughts, tears sliding down his cheeks.

That's what happened every day for years to the Korean country.

But for the other twin, it was much different.

"Please, don't hit me!" South cried.

America stood over him, glaring. "Go get the belt," he commanded. South scrambled up and ran to America's room, looking in his dresser. He grabbed a leather belt, texted North quickly, and ran downstairs.

He gave it to America just to have it hit his back. South sobbed as America continued hitting him.

"Go on, hit me back, coward!" America teased.

South then took initiative.

He kicked America in the stomach, and ran. He ran all the way to North's house.

Meanwhile, North was wiping the counters, his mind wandering. South rushed into his house, making him jump. North stared at South for a long while, before scooping him into a hug.

Nothing lasts forever.
