It was a scorching day. Sun shinning behind the clouds, making Taehyun's hair look as he dyied it with henna.
It has been 2 years. 2 long years since he last saw his lover. His lover was also a guy but nobody cared about which gender you were interested in. However you couldn't lack it. You can't be asexual nor aromantic, it was against the law.
They couldn't be aromantic, they believed loving was what made them humans and the ones who was born without it considered as demons, that they were sons of the devil. They didn't care about the other types of love. They didn't care about the other feelings. They didn't care about how aromantics were still the best people to lean on and had more love than the others.
They couldn't be asexuals and the reason was the most stupid excuse ever. Apperantly they were lacking lust, the "most" "important" part of romance. They were saying aces weren't able to grow up and become an adult. A creature that shouldn't be born as a human. They were believed to be an evil spirit, stolen the human's body. Whenever someone's kid came out as asexual they would disown them, throwing them into jail to rot.
But for aroaces the situation was worse. Since they were mix of both, demon and sprit, putting them into jail wouldn't have done anything. So they would burry them alive. But none of these believes were true. They were normal human beings just like the others.
Taehyun's lover was also asexual and has been put into jail to rot. There weren't any seconds Taehyun didn't think about him. Every morning when waking up he wished that it was a bad dream, only to left with the truth. Just like today.
Taehyun was looking at the sky. It gave the vibe of the day which they took Kai. Like everyday he was sitting at his doorstep thinking what could have been if they didn't found out about Kai. He was a tailor, an apprentice working in a small cottage.
His master was a guy who was in his 50's that looked and acted like he was 10. A blond man that had blue tips at his hair. It was slightly long and most of the time tied in a ponytail. He had a son who was both aromantic and asexual. The kid was also taken, 5 years ago. The man knew his son was dead, he was burried alive in front of his eyes. Evey night he had the worst nightmates; his son screaming for help, pleading to be released, screaming from the top of his lungs that he couldn't breath, until his voice stops.
"Goodmorning hyung." greeted the ginger kid. Making the old man give a smile, pain still can been seen in his eyes. "Goodmorning to you too Taehyun. This is the list of your part of work for today." He told while giving him a paper. Taehyun sat in front of his sewing machine and started working.
They didn't noticed the time while working as if it was a little distraction for them. It was already time to go home, sun about to be set. Taehyun was getting ready to leave before he remembered something. He turned towards the old man. "Yeonjun hyung, can I ask you something?"
Yeonjun gave him a reassuring smile inticating him to go on. "Where is you wife? If it's not something so personal." asked the shorter male.
Yeonjun sat down on a bench while patting the seat next to him. Taehyun got the message and sat down next to him. "She used to live here with me and my son. She was the one who managed to hid that our son was aroace. She didn't leave the house so much so you may not remember her. She was more like an island person so she went back. One month before they discovered that our son was aroace. You and Kai were like pillars for him. I still wish I could change the past." Yeonjun said tears falling from his eyes. Saying his son's name out loud was a pain he can't tolerate.
Taehyun looked at him with teary eyes. "I do miss them." He was missing them so bad. His boyfriend Kai and their best friend Beomgyu.
