Episode 2 - Me too, Young Man (10)

It seems like this life is full of trials. A many different issues that have been faced by one person. Some of us escape from the problems. But some of us constantly trying to solve the problem. All problems have a solution. He taught me that.

"Brother, we miss you so much!"

"It's been a while, My little sister. You getting bigger right now."

I ran to him. Because it's been a while since last I see him. He welcomed me with an excited face. The people that I love. They always keep me remembering about what the meaning of love. My red eyes about the world along with the contents so beautiful to see.

Until that day happen, with my own red eyes too. It's the first time I see so much red. Red is everywhere. In every corner. In every way, I run with tears. Brother? Where's brother?

"Vanessa...?"

"Bro...ther...I'm scared."

"Don't worry I'm right here."

He held me tightly in his big body. There is something behind him and when I saw it. A woman covered with blood. Who is it?

"You don't need to see it. Let's go, Hurry!"

He immediately brought me out of here, looking our father be. His trembling hand holding my hand. His hands are sweating, I can feel it. Who is the woman? Why can't I see it?

In the middle of the journey, I see a lot of vampire knight has fallen. Their blood is on every corner. Even my dress is dirty because of it.

"Come on." My brother is running fast while holding my hand after seeing those knights.

"Brother, we must find father. Maybe he was there. Let's go..."

"NO! WE CAN'T!" He scolded her.

Why is he angry at me?

"I'm sorry, My little sister. We'll get out of here. I will continue to be by your side until the end. We will be fine. Brother promise to you."

You're lying...You're lying. The face of your lies is so obvious, you know? Your face is sad in front of me. I never see you with a face like that. Is there something that I shouldn't know?

Why did you lie to me? You promised to be by my side until the end. But you disappeared so fast? Why? If I'm stronger enough to protect you. If that time I was a strong woman. Until this moment, can I see your smile once again? Can I?

Brother...Varest...Stay with me. I want you to be on my side, forever. Don't leave me alone in this world...Victor...

"I'm sorry, Vanessa. I can't fall in love with you. But promise me you will survive."

What does that mean? You also abandon me to keep the people you don't know. It's funny, but I also do the same thing. A young man suddenly appeared in front of me and his face was exactly the same as the person that has been missing for twenty years. What is the meaning of all this? Is this the destiny I have?

Somebody...please explain to me about everything that happens. No matter what the reason is. Somebody, please tell me what's going on.

"Ha...Ha...Ha...Ha...Ha..." She woke up from her sleep with cold sweat.

"Vanessa, do you have a bad dream? Are you alright? Should I call you a physician?"

"Father...Where's Brother? Where is he? Is he here?"

"Your brother? What are you talking about?"

I'm sure he's still here. My feelings are not wrong.

"Vanessa?!"

She fell out of the bed and then ran looking for someone. She ran and kept running in the big mansion. Ths Grand Duke chased her from behind and tried to stop his daughter.

"Agh!"

Vanessa fell off the stairs and rolled down. The servants and the knights saw her immediately heading in her direction. They trying to help her.

"Vanessa?! Are you alright?!"

"I'm...fine..."

The Grand Duke wanted to take her back to his room. But Vanessa rejects it.

"Miss Vanessa, what can I help you?" Said the servant.

None of you can help me. Although it could be, it will be difficult. I don't need your help. I had to look it up to see. Should not be...until his loss.

"Vanessa?"

She crawled with her own body because couldn't walk. Her feet are full of a wound.

"That's enough, Vanessa. Stop it!" Said her father with a sad face.

Vanessa finally stopped with tears that continued to flow profusely like rain. She continued to hide her face. She continued to say the name of her brother repeatedly, endlessly.

The servants and the knights who realize this can only be silent. They suddenly put on a sad face. They seemed to know why she called her brother's name so many times.

His name keeps being called until there is someone who touched her hair. "Vanessa, wake up. It's not the right time."

His voice made her face blown away.

"Varest?"

"It's me, Miss Vanessa."

My tears suddenly stopped flowing after seeing his face. I wake up from my ugly position and give my hand to him. His little body hugged me tightly while touching my hair.

"Don't worry, you'll be fine."

The words he whispered in her ear, fascinate her. Her heart was also beating wildly because of it. They release each other's arms and stared at one another.

Varest at that moment with a smile, give his little finger to her and said. "I will be on your side forever. I promise."

Vanessa avenges his fingers. "Me too, Young Man."

I don't know if a dream or reality. But if this is a dream, I want to remember it. On the other hand, if this is a reality. I have to banish from the world. Because this relationship is restricted. I also can't continue to be on his side.

One day...no...maybe five years later. You will go from my life and disappear forever. They only leave pain behind. This relationship is so painful.

Hey, Is it true that someone would know she was his soul mate in a single gaze?

We don't know. Maybe someday we will notice that someone close to us is our soul mate. We will know by ourselves. We just need to wait...until the time right is finally comes.
