Vienna
26. Lakuna.
John remembers, a few days ago he met his grandmother who was gone in a dream. According to the myth that people believe, dreaming like that is not a good sign.
He had already contacted his family, and they were all fine, he even contacted friends and relatives, they also gave him some soothing news.
On the other hand, he was worried about the state of Reyna who had been almost three days this he could not contact at all. After escorting her back to the apartment and sending her requested song file that night, Reyna had already turned off her phone.
"What... I'll just ask Hyuji?! " slowly muttered while turning his phone on the desk. "But, it doesn't make sense if I suddenly contact Hyuji and ask Reyna! "
John snorted in annoyance, leaning his head hard on the back of the chair, staring at the ceiling while pondering-why Reyna could not be reached.
"okay!! Tomorrow I'll come to his place of residence! "
-
The next day, the,
Today was the fourth day Reyna could not be reached. In accordance with what he said last night, he came to Reyna's apartment. Walking down the lobby that turned out to be quieter than expected. And stop right at unit number 130.
He had twice pressed the bell button, but there was not the slightest sign that the door would open.
John saw a circular watch on his left wrist, at seven in the evening. Supposedly, all company or office activities have stopped at this time, except employees who have to work overtime.
"Definitely overtime?! "
Just about to press the bell for the third time, a passing neighbor looked at John and greeted him.
"Excuse me... "
"God!! " john replied in surprise, and hurriedly bowed to pay his respects.
"You're Reyna's friend?! "
"I-iya. I'm his friend! " john was nervous.
"That's been three days in the hospital! You don't know?"
John shook his head quickly with a twinkle full of questions.
"The poor girl tried to commit suicide!"
Suddenly, John flabbergasted. His two musk beads widened, his breathing seemed to be stuck for no reason in the esophagus without him asking.
"S-I don't understand what you mean... "
"He hurt himself, three days ago! And now he's still in the hospital! "
His entire sense seemed to be forced to disappear from the body. John shuddered, his body even trembling at the explanation of the aunt who was still standing before him.
"Ru-hospital? Do you know the hospital in which area auntie?! "
"The Seoul hospital!"
"Yes! " the aunt replied briefly as she turned around leaving John still trapped in shock.
Without thinking long, John ran quickly to the car that was a few minutes ago parked in the yard of the apartment. His still-vibrating body was trying to stay within the limits he could control. Wearing the seatbelt in a hurry, and went to the hospital that the aunt had intended. Racing his iron horse at high speed, splitting the already dark Seoul streets perfectly.
Unable to deny his worries, John hits the wheel hard when he sees the traffic light turning red.
"Damn!!! "
Her premonition about Reyna that night was not wrong, the sadness and despair she had seen as gray on both Reyna beads was real. The girl kept a wound that seemed to be too deep.
He swore he would look for the young man and woman who had destroyed Reyna like that. Yes, John swore he would destroy them both like they destroyed that girl named Reyna.

Val stopped right in front of a bus stop near his office. There, Hyuji was already sitting waiting for his arrival. Val glances at the clock on the dashboard of the car, 6.30 PM.
Hyuji brought himself to sit in the front seat beside Val.
"The Seoul hospital! "
Without wasting any time, Val stepped on the gas pedal of his car to get to where Hyuji said he was.
Silence, that's all it feels right now. Only a faint buzzing sound from the engine of the car being driven was heard.
Until the next forty minutes, the car type palisade was parked perfectly. Val likens the move to Hyuji entering a disinfectant-smelling room that will bring him to meet Reyna.
Now, the two legs were usually as firm as steel, the body as solid as the pillar turned weak. His bones were fragile and shattered when he saw Reyna lying on a hospital bed, helpless, with various medical aids embedded in several parts of his body.
"Rey. "call him slowly, his right hand outstretched to reach Reyna's body which was in fact blocked by the ICU's glass expanse. How devastated Val feels when remembering his good time with the girl. The smile he used to love, the soft voice he always heard, as well as the kind, firm and sometimes spoiled attitude, was still imprinted in Val's memory.
Perhaps, or if given a chance once again to go back in time, she would definitely not let go of a girl as good as Reyna. He regretted his decision, now.
"You want to come in? " question Hyuji with a trembling voice.
Val is not as loud as he looks. His body was flabbergasted, both palms covered the face that was currently flushed and tearful. His heavy voice could no longer hold back the cries.
"I'm sorry Rey. "his sigh is on the sagging choking of the esophagus. Picking up a desperate mane that had been neatly arranged.-----
"I love you Val... "Reyna said under the rain that felt refreshing in the midst of a burning summer. No matter the uniform or shoes that will be soaked, or scolded by the mother because the textbook is damaged later, between the sound of bells and followed by the wheels of the train that collide.
Val smiled softly, unraveling Reyna's airborne hair. "I love you too! " Reply Val with great attention. "Please promise to be faithful to love me even though I'm not a perfect man! "
Reyna nodded with a warm smile that she pinned on her banana. Stretching out both of his marble arms to reach the bend of Val's waist for him to clench, leaning his head on Val's wide shoulders which he loved so much. The two stared freely at the silent back streets of the train, with their legs swaying in the air. Reyna's favorite moment when she's with Val.
"I will love you even if you make me sick! I promise I will love you forever! Until my world ends! "[]
