Recursion | Minghao x Reader

Chapter 16

"What? No you won't, we agreed I would be the one to finish her off"

Minghao was very angry, yet he was hiding it when he was talking to her.

"I said I will do it"

She could have never been more serious in her whole life than this very moment.

"I can not let you get your hands dirty.. This is not your fault, you weren't supposed to get involved in the first place. So please, let me finish what I started"

Minghao thought that this was enough to convince her.

"So is it your fault? Who started what? Why are you blaming youself Minghao?!"

Hana yelled and her eyes turned red

"Stop it already!"

Minghao's expression changed into a soft one, his anger from a moment ago disappeared.

"Why do you keep blaming yourself? This whole time.. You think you caused this to me!?"

She paused for a second and he tried to speak, but she interrupted him.

"Why! It is not your fault Minghao! It was her! She was acting on her own, you are the one who shoudn't had get involved. You didn't know she would do it, right? How the hell could you know something like this?! Tell me! "

Minghao lowered his eyebrows and looked at the floor, his eyes turned red as well and he bit his lips.

"I.. I was unable to protect you.. Even if I knew you would die.. I was unable to protect you.. I couldn't.. I was unable to-"

"I know! I don't care about it!"

Hana yelled trying to snap him out of this.

"I am sorry! I am the reason you kept getting hurt, forgive me"

He said and a tear ran down his cheek.

"There is nothing to forgive"

Hana said with a calm tone and wiped his tear with her thumb.

"Now we got the change to end our torture. Please, give me the knife"

She said and streched her hand, waiting for him to hand it over.

"No.. I don't want you to experience something like this" he muttered.

"Isn't it fair if I am the one to finish her off?"

She smiled at him.

"But I wanted to take revenge for you..I swore"

"It is alright, I can do it"

She said and took the knife from his hands, he didn't resist. He felt like it would better if he didn't. He knew that there was no way he could change her mind anyways.

Hana turned and looked at Mira.

She was breathing very fast and tears were running on her cheeks, she was really upset.

"No, please don't"

She said but the sound wasn't clear enough to be understood by Hana, her hands covering her mouth were at fault.

She walked towards her, holding the knife very tightly. Mira got up from her chair and fell down, she pushed herself all the way to the corner of the room, away from Hana.
She knew there was no place for her to run, Minghao would stop her. She was actually more afraid of him rather than her friend.

When Hana was close enough, she leaned closer to her.

"I would be sorry, but I won't since you remember. Right?"
