In his dream, Saerin was in a vast meadow. There were only green grass and some trees there. Empty, that's how he feels right now. He who was just sitting alone on the green grass looked at the scene in front of him.
Saerin felt a gust of wind gushing down his face and gently flew every strand of his hair. Alone without anyone accompanying him, he simply remained silent in confusion. He doesn't know what to do.
There came a man standing beside him, dressed in simple white clothes. Saerin turned to look at the boy.
"Juneen"
Junho just smiled looking at Saerin. The girl was also the same, wearing a simple but graceful white dress if she wore it. His head was worn a crown of white flowers that were very beautiful and plain. The smile engraved on his face adds to the impression of perfection from a teenage girl who sits in front of the same boy as himself.
Junho reached out his hand and was immediately grabbed by Saerin slowly and grasped it. He stood up and looked at Junho.
Junho rubbed Saerin's hair bangs gently.
"Saerin, will you come with me?" ask Junho.
"Where's Junho?"
"Kajja, come with me!" Junho pulled Saerin's hand. The two of them were running around in the green grass. Junho brought Saerin to the flower garden, where there are various flowers of different types and colors.
.
Junho plucked one of the silver flowers, he placed the flower over Saerin's ear.
Junho again pulled Saerin's hand, they ran around again somehow to where. Junho stopped, in front of him there was a swing in one of the branches on a large shady tree. Saerin was led to ride on a swing whose rope was made from the branches of a tree with a few small white flowers tied to the rope.
Saerin sat on the swing, then swung by Junho behind him.
They laugh together. The swing was stopped by Junho. Saerin was confused as to why the game was stopped. Junho walked to the side and extended his hand again. Saerin simply complied and followed him back.
They are in the park where there are butterflies that roam with different wing colors. Some butterflies approach Saerin and release a crown of flowers that sit on his head. And replaced by a new flower crown from some other butterflies who came to bring it. The new flower crown was made of various flowers, different from the one Saerin had used. It contains a variety of colorful flowers. Looks pretty to wear on Saerin.
"Owh gomawo" Saerin smiled at the butterfly. Some of the butterflies, flying to Saerin's head and perched pretty in the crown of flowers that he wore.
Saerin just stared at the butterfly in wonder.
"Kajja Saerin-ah!" Junho clasped Saerin's hand and walked back. Enjoy their time together.
back to the real world..
Kai also came to the hospital because Jungkook contacted him. Soon they were leaving, so Jungkook told Huenangkai to look after Saerin from today.
Next day..
"Kai, we're leaving now. Please take good care of Saerin nee? I trust you all" Namjoon said.
"Nee hyung, I will definitely do it. Don't worry" said Kai.
"Alright, Jin hyung. Kajja, we have to get ready" Namjoon told Jin who was still attached beside Saerin. Namjoon approached Jin and patted his shoulder gently.
"Jin hyung, just trust Kai, I'm sure he will take good care of her. We must leave soon hyung, the others are waiting for us at home. We have to go now"
Jin looked
"But I can't leave him in this condition, let alone that he's not conscious yet"
"But our work is also more important hyung, please understand hyung"
Jin sighed. It was very hard for him to leave Saerin in his present state. Actually if the work is not that much, then Jin prefers to accompany Saerin at this time. But his company's duties are also important, for his survival to be fulfilled.
Finally Jin resigned and followed Namjoon. There was only him and Namjoon left in this hospital, because the others had gone home to take care of their belongings.
"Kai" call Jin who's about to leave.
"Nee hyung"
"Bag Saerin. If she's awake and recovering, tell her to tell me right away, nee?"
"Nee hyung, I will definitely say"
Jin slowly kissed Saerin's forehead before he left.
"Saerin, get well, baby. Mian oppa can not accompany you, oppa will miss you" said Jin in the ear Saerin. Then Jin walked out of the room together with Namjoon.
Seeing that the two of them had come out, Kai approached Saerin and sat down on the chair next to him.
"Saerin, why aren't you conscious yet? I've missed you so much. Quickly wake up Saerin. If you're healed later, I'll take you for a walk, you'll be happy. Take it easy, I'm here, I'll be with you. You will never be lonely Saerin. Please get up quickly" said Kai who held Saerin's palm.
In the dream world..
The sky had turned orange, the sun was setting and the evening was coming. The sky that was originally light blue, was now black and dark. There was only the moonlight and the shining stars dotted the pitch-black night sky.
Saerin was sitting leaning on Junho's shoulder watching the stars and moon from below. They enjoyed their day together very happily.
"Hmmm.."
"Today was fun. Thanks to you, I'm not lonely anymore. My life was empty before you came, I used to feel like I was alone in this vast world. I was so fucked up, I didn't want to live in the world anymore, I just wanted to die and leave such a cruel world to me. A world that does not give me love and love. I have no purpose in life, which is why I think so. No one cares about me. But it was a lot different when you came to me and met me. Honestly, the first time we met that day, I was a little nervous. But just a moment before we met, I was already comfortable with you. I, who had no purpose in life, was now replaced. Ever since I knew you, I felt like I had a purpose. And I realize that my goal is you now. I'm actually ashamed to tell you this. Maybe now is the right time for me to express all my heart."
Junho held onto Saerin's shoulder and asked him to face himself. Junho looked at Saerin deeply while holding onto Saerin's shoulder.
"Saerin, actually since we first met, I've been in love with you. Your smile, your gaze, I love it. I know it's hard, but I want to be brave for you" Junho took off his grip. He looked to the side, then whistled. There came two butterflies and some fireflies who approached her with a rose. They gave it to Junho.
Junho stood up and stretched out his hand, asking Saerin to come stand up as well. Junho took the flower from the two butterflies. Slowly, Junho faced Saerin and looked at him.
"Saerin, I want to tell you something"
Saerin just smiled looking at Junho in front of him.
"Saerin, I love you. Ever since I first looked at you, I felt that I had fallen in love with you. I guess it's just a small feeling, because I've never met a girl. But when I met you, and you applied the ointment to my wounded lips, I realized that the feeling was the feeling of someone in love and that feeling was now beginning to enlarge. When you smile at me, I feel like I'm in love with you. I don't know why my heart always beats when we meet you, even though we've only met for a moment. But I always hoped that I would always meet you. And. Here's my race for you. Will you be my lover? if you receive this flower, it means your answer is yes, if not, then no problem. But at least I told you. Once again.." Junho thrust the flower before Saerin with a big smile, hoping that he would receive it.
"Saranghaea.. Saerin.." said nervously.
With a smile, Saerin picked up the flowers Junho had given him.
Junho had no idea that Saerin would accept it. He was very happy and immediately hugged Saerin, he let go of his embrace and kissed Saerin's forehead at a glance. Junho clasped Saerin's hand while looking down because he was too nervous.
After he looked up at Saerin, he was suddenly shocked. Saerin's body slowly turned into dust grains that went from his body. And finally he disappeared leaving a rose in Junho's hand that was given to him.
"Saerin?!" Junho panicked as he looked around anxiously.
"Saerin!!" his yell.
"Waeil? mwoya is? Saerin-ah!!" his screams echoed all over the place.
"Saerin-ah!!" suddenly, a light came from a distance. Junho turned his head towards that light. He was surprised when Saerin was there standing in front of the luminous door. Then Saerin turned his body towards the door, as he wanted to step inside, he turned to Junho.
"Saerin!! why are you there?!!! come here!! don't go there!!" they scream because they are far apart.
"Saerin wait for me!!" Junho ran up to Saerin who wanted to enter the door, hoping he would not enter.
But Saerin turned his head towards the door again, and stepped in as Junho ran up to him.
"Saerin!! please no!! SAERIN!!!" he screamed while running. But too late, Saerin had already entered the door and disappeared along with the door by the time Junho was near. Junho wanted to reach for the door but in a flash it disappeared and Junho almost fell for it.
"Well, where's that door?" he muttered while processing.
"Saerinaa!!!"
...
Junho's eyes began to glaze over at the roses he held. As night fell like this, he couldn't find Saerin. And he was alone again. His head looked up. Drawing Saerin's face between the stars and the moon above his head, he reached out to Junho who asked him to return his words.
Junho also extended his hand as well, but he could not feel Saerin's palm grasping his hand. Slowly, the bright shadow of Saerin in the night sky gradually disappeared, and finally vanished in the darkness of the night. Junho could not hold back his tears.
He shed tears that began to wet his cheeks. With the hand still outstretched in the air.
"HAI!!!"
Junho looked down with tears.
•••
His heart was pounding, cold sweat pouring from his face. He opened his eyes slowly, looked around and realized.
"Why am I here?"
Junho tried to get up from his bed, but instantly he grimaced as he felt pain all over his body. He was not strong, so his body fell again on the bed.
"Hahh, what's going on? what's with me? what the hell is going on?" Junho turned his head to the right, he saw a girl in deep sleep on the sofa.
"That.. Jiyeon? why is he there?"
"Ah Saerin!?"
Junho forced himself to wake up. He also sat down with a whimper feeling of pain.
He tried to brace himself to walk towards the wheelchair next to the hospital drawer. He brought along an infusion buffer to balance his body. He slowly approached the wheelchair. He sat down and removed the infusion from his hand. Then, running his wheelchair out, he opened the door and exited until he left the door open.
Junho walked in a wheelchair around the hospital hallway. He searched for Saerin until he got out of the hospital, he found himself in the park after he came out the door. Stopped the pace of his wheelchair for a moment and was silent for a moment.
The atmosphere seemed quiet around him, the dark and silent night before him.
"Is that just my dream? why do I dream of him? is that reality? but it doesn't seem real. I just dreamt it.." Junho let out a long breath.
He went back to running his wheelchair inside. He went back into his room and closed the door. He could only stare at the sky from the window in the hospital room, still thinking about the incident. Something that astonished him about himself. Is it real or just a dream? that's what he thinks in his mind.
