"Holy shit," Jihyun muttered out as she saw the mass amount of protestors in front of the building.

The four of them were currently situated at the back of the crowd, the view of the building only a block away- but they were separated by a herd of angry people.

"What are we going to do?" Jihyun asked, looking towards Renjun with worry written on her face and Renjun shook his head.

"I have absolutely no idea."

He would have never thought that in a thousand years, the one day he comes down to Earth to see his soulmate is the day a thousand people decide to protest that his "species" should be sent back to the moon and the portal should be closed.

Renjun had to swallow the dry lump in his throat as he watched people chant words of blasphemy towards him and the people on the moon.

His heart was thumping in his chest, the pure thought of visiting Earth excited so many people on the moon, not many getting to experience the wonders of it.

And although Earth itself was beautiful, Renjun was finally seeing the true beauty of what it was really like.

These people, filled with hatred towards the moon, towards people with powers, all because they were different.

Renjun was finally learning the truth, and it made his heart beat expeditiously against his chest.

"Common, maybe we can work our way around," Juwon said as he held Jiyoungs hand tightly as lead them around the outskirts of the crowd.

They were slowly getting closer, the building becoming slightly larger as they manoeuvred around.

Jiyoung looked down at her phone, eyes widening before turning to her husband and whispering- but Jihyun heard.

"He only has 40 minutes left until he has to be back on the moon. Do you recon he will be-"
"He will be fine, I'll make sure he gets back," Juwon said.

The pace of Jihyuns heart started to speed up, nervousness creeping up on her once again as she looks around her.

They still had a bit to get through before they were at the building, would 40 minutes really be a sufficient amount of time.

40 minutes is all they had left, and then they were going to be separated again, the pure thought made Jihyuns eyes sting and she looked towards Renjun, admiring him as he guides her through the crowd.

"Okay we're almost there," Juwon called out to them and they all nodded.

The closer they got to the building the more aggressive people had started to become.

Jihyun felt someone crash into her, her body jolting from the sudden force and Renjun turned around as he felt her tug on his hand.

Jihyun was unsteady on her feet as another body crashed into her making Renjuns grip on her hand tighten even more.

He pulls her closer to him, throwing an arm around her to steady her as they continue to walk through the crowd.

The four of them had tried to stay close together, not wanting to seperate from each other in the massive crowd of people.

The pushing and shoving only got worse the close they got, people were loudly yelling and chanting and signs and various miscellaneous objects were being thrown into the sky.
