Anonymous strings

Prologue

Successfully, they defeated the last mamono. Seems everyone is already done with their fight. All catching their breath, some are laughing and chuckling, some are snickering and some are just shaking their head and resting for a while.

Ellisa's voice topped the crowd noise once again to catch everyone's attention. "Everyone! Since no more mamono block our way, let's continue to go to our venue, shall we?" She smiles as everyone agrees and starts following her.

Viktor looked back on Hank which he caught him staring as well. They both didn't dare to step forward. Just steadily stood and stared at each other like they both trying to analyze each other. Viktor's attention was drawn by tugging on his coat. He looked down to see who dared to tug him. It was Autumn, he raised his arm trying to indicate something

"Upsies" Autumn said clearly as he pout. He looked like a baby animal asking for food in this scene. Viktor immediately picked him up and cradle him in his arms. The little man starts pointing towards the direction where the rest are heading at. Viktor nods his head in immediate understanding. He understand this little lad's language more than Math, his hated subject. He starts walking but before he goes too far, he looked back where Hank was earlier but he was nowhere to be found. Viktor mentally facepalm himself, why he is so interested in that man? It's not that there's something eye-catching with that man. In the end, he just continues walking following his relatives

Meanwhile, Hank witnessed how Viktor picked his brother up and follow his tiny orders. But before he interacts with that cold yet familiar gaze, he blends into the crowd. Seeing his brother and that albino walking forward, he followed them, yet from behind. Staring the man who caught his attention's back. It seems he is interested to know this man.... more

As everyone is having fun, chitchatting, laughing, drinking, and many more. Viktor and Autumn were on the corner. Viktor is chugging his vodka while Autumn is in front of him and chugging his milk. They both like in a drinking contest but with their favorite beverage. When Autumn hic because of a hiccup, the two start giggling as it broke into laughter. It seems they both have their world

As soon later, Autumn began to fall then sit properly then repeat. His eyes began to get heavy and he occasionally yawned. As if the Lil lad is sleepy yet trying to stay awake. Viktor noticed his drinking buddy dozing off, as he scoop him up, cradle him on his arm before rocking him back and forth. Not long enough, the Lil man finally sounds asleep making the albino crack a small smile on his lips.

He blinked when he heard someone speak behind his back

"Congrats for putting him asleep that easily" a baritone voice echoed on his voice. He twists his neck trying to look over the owner of that voice. He heaves a sigh noticing it was just Hank. He placed his attention back on the sleeping lad. "You know, me and the others having a hard time putting his sleep. He always faking his sleep then play again" he sighed making Viktor chuckle

"I don't think so, he seems nothing but an innocent chaotic ball" Viktor commented leaving a curve smile on his lips making Hank stare at him. He noticed the lad is staring at him making his expression fade and giving him a cold vibe "What are you staring at?"

Hank shook his head "your smile, you're handsome if you always wear it" he complimented

"Ah, so without it I'm ugly?" Viktor raised his eyebrow

"No, I mean, you look better with a smile"

"So I look worse without it?"

Hank heaved a defeated sigh. He reached on Viktor's face and stretch his mouth forming a smile "there you go, this suits you better" He smiles

"Ah, so I look horrible-" Viktor tried to comment again but yet, he got shushed by this man

"You're handsome, okay?" he said before he stood up, messing his significant white hair before he walked away "See you soon, handsome~" he teased before he bursted in laughter while walking away

The albino left alone dumbfounded, trying to absorb what just happened. A rush of blood flowed to his cheek and felt a throbbed from the bottom of his heart making him confused and curious

"What the hell just happened?"
