Eunhyuk looked at his parents’ bedroom with a name engraved on it.
‘Kim Yoo Jin / Eugene Kim’
“Mom, are you there?” Eunhyuk knocked at his parent’s bedroom.
“Yes, dear, you can come inside.” Eugene shouted softly from inside. Eunhyuk slowly opened the door and peeked in. He saw his mom seating on the bed, reading a strange book. She looked up and smiled.
“Come here, Hyukjae-ah.” Eugene motioned him. He entered and closed the door. He sat next to her and looked at the book.
“Mom, what’s that?” He asked.
“This? It’s ‘The Pearl of the Orient.’ I received this book from ‘The Raymania’ when they gave you the rings. They said the time will come when I should use this book.” She said, hand touching the surface of it.
“Then what’s inside? What does it says?” He asked, touching the book too.
“It says that, a human will become an angel and it will save ‘The Little Prince’ and a stranger with unknown race. That stranger is unique, he’s extra-ordinary. But it still confuses me.” She explained with confusion in her face.
“What part of that book confuses you, Mom?”
“This book, it looks like it is destined to happen. But the most important is, who is ‘The Little Prince?’ Still, no matter what happened to him, I am entrusted to protect him and do the rituals, with that unknown human and others.” Eunhyuk raised an eyebrow.
“Others?”
“Eun Hye and her daughter.” She answered. Eunhyuk widened his eyes.
“E-Eun Li? But she’s a baby.” Eunhyuk uttered.
“That’s why I’m confused. That’s why I told the people to observe the baby.” She sighed. He remained silent for a while and ponder about it.
It confuses me too...
“Oh, Hyukjae-ah, why are you here? Do you need to talk about something?” Eugene asked.
He smiled and nodded. He moved a bit and lay his back at the bed, head on his mother’s lap. She smiled and caressed her son’s face.
“I have a classmate coming tomorrow. We’ll be creating a project in English Literature.” He said.
“It’s okay. If it’s about your school, I’m fine with it.” She smiled and caressed her son’s golden hair.
“But he’s not an ordinary classmate, Mom.” He sighed. She stared at him and asked him again.
“What do you mean?”
“He’s a vampire.” He muttered and looked at her eyes. Eugene blinked for a while and nodded.
“He’s one of the vampires that captured Kyuhyun-hyung.” He added, eyes still glued to each other. He watched his mom’s face turned blank.
A moment of silence filled the room. Eugene’s face softened and half-smiled.
“I understand. Will you show him to me tomorrow?” She softly asked. Eunhyuk smiled too.
“Of course, Mom. I will.” He stood up and kissed Eugene’s cheek. He bid a goodbye and reached for the door. When he’s about to open the door, his mother’s voice stopped him.
“Hyukjae.” He turned around and smiled.
“Yes Mom?”
His smile disappeared when he saw her eyes transformed into blue one.
“Don’t blame yourself, Eunhyuk. It’s been five years. Stop carrying the burden anymore. You should stop. Your brother won’t like it too. Forget your father’s words. He’s not-“
“MOM!”
Eunhyuk tried to catch his breath. Hand on his neck, where that scar is. She worriedly looked at him.
“Please. Stop it. I can’t forget. I just can’t.” He said, almost inaudible for the latter to hear. He hurriedly exited the room and headed to his room. He leaned himself on his door and exhaled heavily. He sat on the floor and pulled his hair harshly. He started trembling while screaming.
I will never forget that. Never.

It was eleven o’clock in the evening. The door of underground hall opened. Footsteps echoed the place. The footsteps stopped. The figure faced a giant door. She pushed it softly and the door opened slowly. Another door was seen. She grabbed a key from her pocket and twisted the lock.
The room showed a man with chains around his wrists, ankle and body. Arms were pulled sideward. His body was half-covered with faint blood and bruises. His head was hanging low.
She went near him and touched his shoulder. The latter flinched and breathed heavily. She smiled.
“Did I wake you? I brought a food. Drink first.” She offered a drink with straw to him. She put it in his mouth and slowly, he drank from it.
“I’m gonna visit your family tomorrow.” She blurted out when she finished feeding him. The man hummed weakly, wanted to reply but finding it hard to speak.
“Do you want to say something to them? I’ll send it to them.” She whispered, enough for him to hear. The latter nodded weakly. She looked at him for a while and held his face to look at her.
“Kyuhyun.” She half-smiled. The guy’s half-opened eyes stared on her own.
“You know that I’ll not hurt them right?” She asked him. He nodded weakly again.
“Tell me what do you want to say to your parents.” She told him. His head leaned on her hand and closed his eyes. She closed her eyes too and listened to him. Silence filled the room. She opened her eyes and smiled, meeting Kyuhyun’s blue and red eyes.
“I understand, Kyuhyun.” She caressed his face carefully.
“How about your brother?” She asked again. This time, Kyuhyun smiled weakly and leaned his head to her hand again. Her face became serious and nodded. His eyes were pleading.
“I’ll say it to him. Don’t worry, Kyuhyun.” She half-smiled. She let go of his face and kissed his forehead.
“Sleep now. You need to rest.” She added. His head looked down again and relaxed. She was about to reach for the door when she heard a grunt. She immediately turned around and looked at him worriedly.
“What’s wrong?” She asked, slowly stepping forward to him. He looked up and exhaled heavily.
“Hyukjae…” He said almost inaudible with hoarse and weak voice. She turned frozen when she heard him speak. It is the first time he spoke ever since five years ago.
“C-care..ful..D-Dongh..Hae..a-and…Hee..C-Chul…P-please…Seo..H-Hyun…” He voiced out and shouted suddenly, causing the chains moved and hurt him more.
“Don’t move. I will, okay? I promised.” She touched his cheeks and made an eye contact. A tear rolled down from his eyes. He again leaned his head to her hands.
“P-please..Hyukjae…he..n-needs D-Donghae…” He whispered. Seo Hyun nodded and removed the tears came out of his eyes.
“I know. I understand. I can handle this. Just please, take a rest now.” She pleaded. He nodded slowly and looked down. Hands were still on his face because Kyuhyun was telling him something.
‘Hyukjae should stay away from Heechul. But if things went not right, Donghae should protect him. I’m begging you. Please help Hyukjae, before I transformed into something. Promise this to me.’

I’ll do it, Kyuhyun. I promised.
She told solely to herself as she left the underground hall minutes after.
