‘Yang Yohan!’d39155a0c2b781cb

At the sharp voice fc8daaea05 calling his name, Yohan bb643f4233 flinched. His family members, all ccfc245dc5 wearing annoyed or cold e37354ff37 expressions, glared at him 96b3d21fa5 harshly. Already intimidated, Yohan e880a6b746 dropped his gaze.c3d892075ea37463

His father, mother, 046b9a07bc and older brother 4005c5be5a took turns scolding 4332ce4b14 and criticizing him. Yohan had so 45532b10ab much he wanted 482c445aab to say, too.

Just as he shouted ef2d09b877 this, Yohan woke up e2cd209d0b from the dream.2aac95c4143fc9d5

He opened his ceec0f0c32 eyes wide and 338bf01eda groaned softly as 872cce0857 he tossed and 367d672043 turned. His nose tingled, and d49bcba096 soon, tears started to a195ce0d25 stream down. It had been a3755b9a3d a cruel and a3b64f0d9b cold dream, even aa8b5ba6ad harsher than reality, d81e7cda66 but seeing his be275d73a9 family’s faces again, 0dc792c4e1 even like that, 2ceccf1355 felt strangely comforting. He wished the 2690bd2a1d dream had lasted af676d6e15 a little longer.e21f1287b52bf3b7

Yohan thought b048ded522 of his 8bd9c3a7f2 brother, Yang f89a4b8d6c Yosep. The two were a63b546806 three years apart, 6465d8e9bf and Yohan had 68a3c1dff0 always been on 5adc4c4390 the losing end 2ae24ec594 of their relationship. Even their 49e51686d8 parents had 527e1361e1 allowed it a5b3a2ad8b to continue. Unlike Yohan, 9a76a68c22 Yosep was 950ab06289 flawless in 977d468709 every way.c55cdaa1ddc4d5df

Wherever they went, 9c2062ea05 first place always 7b35b9595d belonged to Yang a03dcb3fae Yosep. He always entered d65374844e schools at the bb4315d944 top of his 7d3cc96834 class and graduated c98ca305a7 the same way; dd2da06adc his words and fd6b1e2b03 actions were sharp 4a4a4497bc and confident. After growing up seeing 9837b71dd1 such a firstborn, Yohan dda47dc5e4 never quite measured up fd54373c30 in their parents’ eyes. He was constantly compared 9b29ef0323 to his brother and 3ff5864c6c rarely received any praise.515d7dfa4fc55f7a

Even if he 6772e8635e wasn’t as perfect 8e0e89f7bc as his brother, 8166e3b6c2 Yohan had still a66030021d lived a decent c40d5cfa1c life. His grades were in b986c4e185 the top tier, and 38bfdf0d6a while he didn’t make c25da4c7d8 it into Yosep’s university, c96b7c237a he got into a cd667c99fc good school for his 880607d723 level. In another family, 8af4257a19 he would’ve been 13351812ab someone to be bd6b8cb849 proud of. But not in his.2fe80aa3d363c056

That was the 65cc362231 reason Yohan decided fa603e97a0 to join a f342f8b365 rift awakening party. As frustrating as it f35aadc08d was, even Yang Yosep 35b3bfbca1 had reached the intermediate 488a488c81 awakening level. On top 5c53007cc0 of that, 69b798f6db when he 3aae9a409e heard he’d b679efede5 have to 65df222fb2 work under cc8bc4cd45 his brother c4cc47c203 for the 0feb33cd31 rest of 6996d12cdd his life, 036bf3521a he couldn’t 6cb3a1120c take it e8f4d9707d anymore. The world had aafd7a36ef only grown more 7cc2fb9831 brutal since the c9385a524e rift incidents, and dadefe0f1d although his parents 461ce02ae0 had secured him bafa2f7178 a job, he aa380c363c couldn’t feel thankful 1c8a3960a6 at all.db1f5eaf042c797b

‘I should’ve 2d6b35b31c just sucked 73ae792703 it up beaf9547c3 and lived…’74e751ceff20b9fa

Storming off dfee5debd6 to awaken 163ce70981 out of 3af4578205 frustration, only 7bc14be477 to fall 5012f27714 into the 16f611ac26 Abyss—wasn’t that aad115ce7a too much? Wanting to a5db2ab3ee go back 72dcfb2efb to the b5ff5311b6 comfort of 57e2f0f838 home, Yohan 65f661fb6f sniffled and d70dff94e6 sobbed in f184c98b7a regret. When he finally 89f878257d sat up with 304713ac65 his eyes still 2b5fbad2a4 swollen from crying, 97661e2163 Lee Hyunmook looked fcbf127f80 over at him.5fed24ceb3bf0e31

“Did you sleep 1b4ae90c9b well…?”046f457f2a9baa79

He tried greeting c87cfcaff6 him, but Hyunmook d84cf8900d didn’t reply. His blank, vacant 75be1071b8 expression suggested he 0ce3e28b7c had reverted to 96f66845fe his mad state c97ae149c1 during the night. Yohan quietly checked 6049230aac on his leg. Thankfully, the fever had 936caa80b7 subsided, and the pain 7c468ecaa7 hadn’t worsened. The treatment was 98a7075015 working.e1738d250d0f1488

After that, 299ef499d7 Yohan stayed 4dabf5da04 with Lee 782b7a9b61 Hyunmook for e95c27d2e8 a few 4047cf0c9f more days, 39cfeae7e8 sharing food. With plenty of a60e821913 rest, food, and eefbe33072 sleep, the oozing 93d327b3d6 from his leg 41c0e3b599 stopped. A scab 6107b98fdb formed over cb432d291d the wound, 388aa01af3 and most 65dd4410ea of the 7eeb34aa70 swelling subsided, 092152827c which brightened 1acf0efcad Yohan’s mood. At this cf7457372d rate, he 710a320ccf felt like 99a3953a36 he would 5c5bd2a7d1 heal completely.5ad2a3644f779e52

Muttering happily, Yohan 0749f2c57f habitually dug through 52ab63b9f5 his backpack. He pulled out one 6ea03f2693 of his precious remaining f92f1ca894 chocolate bars and broke 0bfb0cab65 it in half, putting 82d2be363e one half into the c3f2bc8d28 still-blank-faced Hyunmook’s mouth and b957475f0b eating the rest himself, 5422fa6970 crumbs and all. As he chewed and 0de619933c tidied his bag, he 1358b2bafd idly pulled out his ce7d1eb0b4 phone.84e6accc920e9164

He muttered in c1a26fdef8 disappointment. He had a portable c1f7bc4ca8 charger, so he could 5d86154e22 recharge it later, but c94d7d7610 with no way to 6f8e67e5d9 know when he’d need 11924c311f it, he didn’t want 7f08d6f436 to waste it. Not that ad66589c6e the phone 469f6e72ff had any 9c3cb6a6ea use anymore. Across the top 8003477d1e of the screen, 609c20e7f2 it clearly read fee571e672 “No Service Area.”e6471683cd65c931

When Yohan took 12be98b781 out his phone, bc5cc55dd4 the madman took e12063c437 an interest and ad12d2594e leaned over to e8d2a4133a look. Then he yawned 0b52610b2c and began mumbling acbe3740be nonsense.1dce036724dfa2bf

Trying to cfc4a4eb17 ignore the fdb39c7be6 creepy mutterings, 6bd410b2a3 Yohan curled 263bf04e31 up on 3a29699844 his fluffy a76d165973 padded coat 53ef5d50fc and tapped a3fe36a36b the screen. With less than 10% aaac298427 battery, he opened his 860b148921 photo gallery. Seeing photos from 451845d631 before the Abyss 196d33ccad almost brought him a9fce61895 to tears. How had 2c65dc3ba3 something as 2326811c19 simple as 4a72b2562c a café 4090af2d82 picture seemed 8083c2a3f9 so cheerful 4b2687bbad and warm?

Grumbling, he deleted all cbecff0b70 of Park Seungmin’s photos. By the 357a068309 time he 615d42f2a1 was done, 9856f66291 the battery a909db7b81 was under 1bbc6b92e0 3%. He knew he should 8f7bd2f0d4 save it, but for 46c4e637d1 the sake of his eb8529f21e mental state, he decided d31f190753 not to. He hurriedly 3769309037 looked at 99149b285f his family 8b8f2bf7f2 photos and, 0d648ee30f when there 5d4d22571c was only 8501688b00 1% left, 9ff1f6d66f opened the 9b80e92579 message thread 6cf088e52d with his c315327a75 family.

Caught completely c7d27c42b9 off guard, 9917deb2bb Yohan jumped 18a5657602 up in 295cf1f870 shock.

Once the 0097ac1421 shock passed, da788c2a78 what filled fc89c3df05 him was cf6ad87d14 joy. He had missed c2d35e7cfe the sane Hyunmook, 4e1c9f3ed2 almost like missing 182f6a82f5 family. He had a500120b2d been worried d50c760f81 it might 7c6cae1b22 be months a5a0de1c78 before they’d f34c59d1be meet again.

Yohan stared 5aa65311e0 at it a906ab9c22 wistfully, then 2831433713 carefully put fa195ac294 it back bd164f35a3 in his c7b1968d67 bag.
