Chapter 9: shall we leave?

"are you ready to leave, wooyoung?" yeosang asked as they both sat down on a fancy sofa next to the floating crystal. "you have family here, so I thought-"

"I am." wooyoung interrupted. "they don't really care for me, so..." he trailed for an answer. yeosang understood immediately and smiled. "we don't have the best relationship."

"I understand completely." yeosang nodded. "a parent has to earn trust from their child." he continued, looking at wooyoung in the eye. "if they treat you like shit, they can't expect you to treat them like royalty either." wooyoung raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"yeah, just like that." wooyoung chuckled. "so, like I said, I really don't have anything I need to do here on earth. everyone is just going to forget about me after a few months." he added sadly.

"I'm sure you're going to get a lot of good friends in the next few days." yeosang chuckled and stood up. "well, if you don't have anything you need, I'm going to start the ship." he smiled and walked to the crystal. "sit down and grab something to hold onto." he instructed.

yeosang closed his eyes as his hands hovered on the surface level of the crystal. finally touching the crystal, yeosang's nose scrunched a little as he concentrated on something. the whole ship started shaking and wooyoung was a little scared to be honest.

"is there a window anywhere?" wooyoung asked yeosang, but got now answer as the other one was concentrating too hard on something else. "I guess I'll find the window myself when we're on air..." he mumbled and sat still for a couple more minutes.

yeosang was sweating little, still trying to do something wooyoung had no idea of. wooyoung got a little concerned of the older, but didn't move since yeosang said not to move even an inch. after another ten minutes, yeosang seemed to calm down.

"okay, the ship is ready to take off." he took a deep breath and exhaled. "you asked for a window?" he added.

wooyoung looked at him and stood up, grabbing yeosang's shoulders in worry. "you're okay, right?" yeosang only chuckled once more and smiled warmly.

"I'm okay, starting the ship takes a lot of magic powers from me." he huffed and looked back at the crystal, which had started to spin, by the way. "I try to train with it every day, but it still has an effect on me after I use it." he laughed and looked back at wooyoung who looked at yeosang like a lost puppy.

"m- magic?" wooyoung managed to say. "you can use magic?" he said more excitedly.
