Chapter Thirty-one

There is a warm feeling in your chest when the person you love so much loves you back. That's what they said, but I never experienced those feelings, and maybe I never will. But I am still hoping that you will be the light in my dark world and the red in my black-and-white world.

Kai's POV

Many years ago:

"One day when you grow up, you'll find that one person that you'll love so much that it pains you," Mama said to me while she put me to sleep. Why? One might ask. She would have read me a book where the hero fought great evil for his princess. I was a bit skeptical about it.

"So, you love Dad that much?" I asked as she smiled and kissed my forehead while she whispered, "You too, my baby."

They say when you see a shooting star, make a wish and it will come true. Mine never did. So, I learned that the world is dark and cold. It will take away what it wants from you. That's why I take everything that I desire no matter what.
