CHAPTER 32: Sweet dreams or Nightmare?

<Yin's POV>

Walking in the dark alley towards nothingness, thinking nothing, planning nothing. Even though that it's already late, there are a lot of children running around, playing, chit-chatting, just to entertain themselves. How fortunate are they? No problems to bother, no emotional pain. I envy them. I wish I can go back being a kid, bullying some dipshit big guys, hanging out with Rei.

This street is quite busy eh? Not only children can be seen in here, also some adults being busy with their businesses. They don't bother that I exist. I just walk straight, bumping to no one. I don't know if they're avoiding me or what.

While walking out of boredom, I heard a familiar voice calling my name.

"Yin"

It sounds like it is echoing in my head. I looked around who called my name.

"Yin. Over here."

Upon following the voice, I have reached the dark dead end, which is between the tall buildings. I still look around but I can't see well. I felt someone is walking behind me and suddenly covered my eyes.

"Guess who?"

His hands are so soft and warm. I feel like I have missed this feeling. My heart starts to beat faster as my tears flow down to my cheeks. He removed his hands slowly, as I turned around to face him.

"What's with the face? Looks like you're seeing a ghost."

He chuckled a bit as the moonlight hit his face, enough for me to fully recognize him. I cried softly that makes him wipes my cheeks with his bare hand.

"I'm sure you've suffered enough these past few months. But don't worry now. I'm here."

He kissed my forehead and hugged me. I kept on crying on his chest, soaking his suit with my tears. I broke the hug punching his chest gently.

"Where the hell have you been!"

He just responded me with a smile, and pinches my nose gently.

"You're not taking care of the heart that I gave you."

I paused, staring straight to his eyes, as I breath deeply.

"You....."

A pain in my heart stings, like a needle pierced on it many times. This happiness is indeed temporary, for a couple of minutes only. My hands are trembling trying to reach for his hands but, he held my hands instead.

"Please stay."

I begged for him to stay, because I feel like I'm drowning in sorrow already. I pulled him for another tight hug, as if I don't want to let him go ever. I felt that he hugged me back as he rested his chin on my head, moving it down to my shoulder, and buried his face on my neck.

"I don't wanna leave as well, but Ayah and Shimizu needed me. And I have to watch over Hoshi, and your babies."

I didn't respond as I just kept on crying while hugging me. I heard some echoes calling me.

"Don't you dare waking me up. Please don't wake me up."

A soft voice kept on calling me.

"Yin."

"PLEASE DON'T WAKE ME UP!!!"

My hug tightened and begging for whoever is calling me not to wake me up.
