(33) New life 2

"Well?"
Gabriel asked.

"Before I tell my decision, I would like to say the last word to Singto. I'm going to keep it short."
Krist asked.

Gabriel nodded.

Krist turned to Singto for the last time.
"Happy Birthday, Singto. You're the most amazing, beautiful, and strongest person I've ever met. I'm really proud that you were my boyfriend. Happy Birthday, Singto."

"Ouch."
Lucifer clamped his lips together quickly.

Singto's face turned pale for the first time.
- I was his boyfriend, that means he chose human life?...does he?
Singto gathered up the courage to look at his face to find the answer.

Krist's mouth celebrates his birthday, but his eyes were filled with anger and disappointment.

"... P'Krist?"

Krist's glare sucked something out of Singto. He visibly wilted before his first clipped word was uttered.
Singto should say something, but he couldn't.
Krist is angry.

Krist never looked at Lucifer or Gabriel, just him, never blinking and said to Singto.
"Make a wish, birthday boy."

"W..what?"
Singto uttered.

Krist's eyes set still.

He simply waited until Singto says something back as if this is the last chance for him to tell the truth.

"I am waiting."
Krist said.

Singto didn't know which one to choose.

Krist shook his head, even more disappointed.
"You don't even know what you want."

"I..I can't...I can't be selfish."
Singto's throat constricted, and unshed tears stung his eyes. His eyes started filling with tears that he didn't want him to see.

"Why not? Today is your birthday."
Krist still looks so serious, but his voice became softer.

"You said I was your boyfriend...I get it. I... I respect your decision because your happiness is my happiness."
Singto said in a monotone voice. He even realized how he looks painful when he said it.

Krist narrowed his eyes at him.
"Do you even know what my happiness is? "

The tears came Krist's eyes without warning.

Krist always cries first.

The crying face doesn't suit him.

"Krist."
Singto is about to comfort him but restrict himself.
He doesn't feel like he has the right to do it to him anymore.

"Do you really know what my happiness is?"
Krist asked again.

Singto didn't dare look him in the eye anymore.

"Look at me, Singto."
He said.

Singto looked up.

Y

O

U

Krist mimed.
"..that's my happiness."

-Do I deserve him?
Singto thought.

"Go, birthday boy. What is your wish?"
Someone said.

"Singto?"
Krist said, leaning toward him seductively.

Singto strove to control himself.

"Singto? How about you? What do you want?"
Singto heard Krist's soft voice.
