White & Red
Jay-jay's POV
I can hear Ella sobbing from behind me. Even I want to cry out loud. Percy hasn't answered yet but his serious look is enough to make our hearts heavy. "Where is he?!" Ella's voice is ï¬lled with a hint of conversation. "P-percy... Where is Aries?" I asked. He bowed for a moment before sighing. "Aries..." He started and that's all I could do to hold my breath because I might give in completely . "...Aries...because..." He looked behind us. "...There! He's coming!" I immediately turned to look at what he was pointing at. His clothes were dirty and there was a little blood splatter, almost as much as Percy's. He was walking straight and it seemed like nothing bad had happened. Ella immediately ran towards him. He immediately hugged him tightly. Okay... The girlfriend ï¬rst, the brother later. When I made sure he was okay. I immediately confronted the animal Percy. But the traitor quickly escaped. All I heard was his laugh that made me cringe. "YOU'RE A FUCKING PERCING! YOUR JOKES ARE NOT FUNNY!" I shouted angrily. "Mwuhehehehe..." was all I heard from him. He sighed! I almost fainted because of the nervousness. I wondered what had happened to my brother. I confronted Aries again who was still hugging Ella. I didn't speak for a moment because I didn't want to disturb them. I was happy to know that he was safe and that nothing bad had happened to him. A few seconds later Aries looked at me. He let go of Ella and immediately came over to me. I didn't hesitate to greet him with a hug. "That's a bad Percy! I wondered what had happened to you!" I said while snuggling into his chest. That crazy person was behind me. "Okay... It's over, no one will bother you anymore." He whispered to me before letting go of the hug. "...what happened to your face?" "S-that's Sato... The one he took me away from you earlier. The marks are only appearing now." He hugged me again and kissed my forehead. "Sato is dead." I was shocked and let go of him. W-dead? How? Who? Wait! I haven't gotten my revenge on him yet. It's hard to believe. Yes, I'm angry at him but I haven't reached the point where I want him to die. I'm not that bad. I'm just a bad person. "W-whoâ€"?" "He killed himself." He quickly cut me off. The Gunggong committed suicide. "What?!" "Because Yuri said he called the Japanese Embassy to have him arrested. It seems like he doesn't want to be arrested alive with all his cases." He explained. I nodded. I thought one of them did it. Speaking of Yuri, I smiled at Aries. They were together earlier, does that mean? "We won't be friends anymore, if that's what you have in mind." Horoscope answered me, so my smile disappeared. "Why are you together?" "Probably because you need us. But that's all." Oh, too bad... He touched my head before leaving to go see Ella again. I was happy for them, that they were okay. But do they have to be always together ? My worries about Aries have disappeared, while I'm getting fed up with Percy. Do they really have to be threatening? Yuri and their Pest King are the only ones making my chest pound. Why are they taking so long? I couldn't help but think badly. I must have taken a walk a few times. I kept thinking about the same path the two of them took. I was worried that the troopers would also walk there. "Iihhh... Away! You're doomed!" I heard Percy shout which I thought was for Honey. Good for you! That's karma! "Wow, you're really angry with me! You're so mean!" Honey replied . "There you go! You're stealing my prideâ€"ARAY!" Percy shouted. I think that crazy person had already tasted the slap. The others were obviously getting bored too. I even heard someone snoring. Ci-N was the one who kept dropping pick-up lines to Rakki. "Are you Araw?" she asked. "Why..." Rakki forced an answer. "Coz you're the center of my solar system." Batang Kumag's answer was thrilling . It was obvious that he was the only one thrilled with his own pick up line. Rakki only sighed in response. It's good that they can have fun. While I'm restless because of fear. Add to that I'm hungry. I'm even more hungry. I might get bitten suddenly. "Should we call the police?" I heard Drew ask. "Let's wait for Keifer." Eren replied. "That's why we'll call the police. Maybe he's already gone." He said and I immediately looked at him with a frown. "...Just a J-joke." He chased after me when he saw me. "Your joke isn't funny!" I said annoyed. "...Are you the one I'm going to end up with?" "Just joke about the drunk... Don't worry about Jay-jay." David growled. I turned my back on them. These Cobras weren't helping. My fear only increased. I wanted to go there but how could I do that if every time I stepped closer, Kit and Mayo would immediately block me . I washed my hands off my face several times. I'm getting annoyed! I want to cry again. That's as bad as Sato! You shouldn't have died. I can't even stand up to you. My scalp hurts from what he did. I haven't been able to get even. It would have been just a scratch. Just a flick of the wrist, that's okay. I looked back at where Percy and Aries had come from earlier. It felt like my burden had been relieved when I saw Yuri walking towards us. I smiled and was about to greet him when I saw his clothes. There was so much blood, so much that you would think it was from him at ï¬rst glance. I swallowed. I couldn't do it yet. I thought my fear would go away because of the worry but it turns out I was wrong. I didn't pay attention to Aries and Percy's clothes earlier. They only had blood on them so I wasn't immediately afraid of them. But Yuri's.... there was so much. Yuri greeted me with a smile but when he noticed that I was staring at what he was wearing. He stopped immediately. "Is that blood yours?" I asked worriedly but still had a trace of fear. "No, it's not mine." He answered and took off his polo shirt but there was also blood on his inner shirt. We both looked at each other. We both didn't know what to say or do. He knew my problem whenever I saw blood. "I-I would like to hug you." I said while looking away. "...I was worried about you." He also looked away. "I-I want that too." So what? He looked at the clothes for a moment and it seemed like an idea had entered his mind. He let go of the polo shirt and took off his shirt. My eyes widened. The idiot was topless. What was worse, my eyes were already glued to his body. I had seen his body many times but I don't know. It felt new to me. Please, stuffing! I didn't hear a word from him anymore. He took quick and big steps towards me. It was as if he was in a hurry and was chasing time. In a blink of an eye, I was already on his chest. His arm was tightly wrapped around me. "Please ignore the fact that I'm topless." He said. How could I ignore it? His body was so tense. But that wasn't what mattered. I just wanted him to feel that I was worried about him and I knew he was too. "Currently ignoring." I replied and he laughed a little. "...why did it take you so long? Percy and Aries got back a while ago." "Sorry, I need to call our embassy and also Otosan." "You scared me." I said and hugged him tightly. He didn't say anything but I felt him kiss my forehead. I don't know but the way he hugged me felt strange. It seemed like he was feeling some fear. I was about to ask but these Ulopongs were already gone. Suddenly, they shouted something. "How disgusting!" "There are many innocents here!" "Awful! You two are so shy!" "These two are so hot!" "Don't look at them, Mica!" We didn't intend to pay any attention to them but suddenly Ci-N stood up close to us. Her eyes widened as she pointed to the same place where Percy, Aries and Yuri came from. "Keifer! Keifer!" She shouted and Yuri and I quickly moved away in a second . We both looked at what she was pointing at. And I almost screamed.....sigh! There was no one there where she was pointing! An animal! My heart almost fell in fearâ€"and why would I be afraid? She was the one who had done me so much wrong. Yes! Yes! I immediately confronted the young snake but the Snake quickly escaped . She even managed to laugh out loud along with her companions . "You're one more! Percy and I will catch you!" Speaking of Keifer. Why wasn't she there yet? "Yuri..." I called to her who was currently picking up her clothes . "...did something happen to Keifer? Why isn't he here yet?" Yuri didn't even look at me. He came over to me while holding the clothes. He patted me on the shoulder with sad eyes . "B-maybe he just talked to someone. Just wait a little." He said and forced a smile. I wanted to ask him more questions but he had already passed me by. It was obvious that he didn't want to talk anymore. I didn't know if I should apologize to him. I knew I hurt him. But when I did that, it was like I was admitting that I did it on purpose. I chose to remain silent. I didn't want to increase his resentment. I also didn't want to hurt him even more. I was worried about Keifer but Yuri was crying out to me more now. He had sacriï¬ced too much for me. He was hurting too much. I needed to make sure he was okay. A little far from the Ulopongs, Yuri stopped to get dressed. I walked closer to him but hadn't gotten far when I heard the name of the person I had been waiting for earlier. "Keifer..." I thought at ï¬rst that they were trying to trip me up again but when I heard the sound of shoes, I stopped. Each step was slow but heavy. I slowly turned around. It felt like my heart was beating with each step he took. I had lost track of what I was planning to do. Not far away, he was already wearing his coat, there was not even a trace of blood on his head. His necktie was wrapped around the ï¬st on his right hand that looked like he had used it to punch. His face was still the same. It didn't look like he had been in a ï¬ght. Here I am again. I'm feeling strange again. Why do I feel like this every time I see him? I wasn't like this before. I wanted to cry but I also wanted to be happy because he was in front of me. I wanted to hug him but I also wanted to kick him. I think I'm going to lose my mind because of this man! "Keifer..." Ci-N called to her while greeting her. Keifer stopped where I was standing earlier where I was waiting for them. They were talking about something we couldn't hear. He looked at me for a moment but didn't react at all. It felt like something pierced my heart. You're such a fucking animal! He ï¬nished talking to Ci and he started walking again but was heading to the exit where he and Freya had passed earlier. I couldn't move from where I was standing. Until he passed in front of me and passed me. Not even a glance?! He passed me as if he didn't know me. Wait! Am I just a ghost and he didn't see me?! "Oh... Jay-jay didn't care." Drew said raising my eyebrows. I felt like I was going to step on him. If not, then I know! I know he ignored me. There was no need to show it. All he needed was for Gago to put a tarpaulin over my face. I just felt bad for Drew. Only my eyes followed the King of Vipers. That's all I could do. I couldn't chase him anymore. But my mind quickly changed when I saw what he did when he passed in front of Aries and Ella. He turned around, he glared at me! He looked at Ella Dianne. He looked at her! He looked at her oh! He looked at her! HE LOOKED AT HIS EX-GIRLFRIEND! Woah! This bitch is making me angry! He just passed me by but the ex looked at her. What's going on?! Is there something going on that I don't know about?! I'm not a jealous person. I don't get jealous easily. Not really. No. NO! Why would I be jealous? Is there someone jealous? Is there someone? IS THERE ANYONE?! Just turned around! He turned to the Ex but I was the one he promised to kill and told his love just passed by. "Are you okay Jay? Are you pooping?" Eren asked while watching my face. I didn't care what he was saying to me. I was annoyed! I was annoyed because I shouldn't be annoyed but I was annoyed. That's the power of an idiot. When you're an ex, you shouldn't be jealous anymore. It's over, it's gone . You're an ex, right? The word ex is used to specify a OLD position or place. So there's no need to worry about it anymore. EH, LET'S GO! LET'S GO! LET'S GO, LET'S GO! That's another topic! You're an ex, right? So why even think about it. Maybe you don't want to look back for the rest of your life. Should I break your neck? "You're really a bitch..." I whispered. I was so annoyed, I took off my shoe and threw it at him. It hit him in the back, causing him to stop walking. "Jay!" Yuri yelled at me. I ignored him and even took one of my shoes to throw it at him again. It hit him in the head, causing him to bow down. I noticed that everyone was looking at me. Even Aries, whose eyebrows were furrowed. Percy, who was just dumbfounded by what I did. "Oh Jay... Your socks are different!" Ci commented while laughing. Oh...wow! Thank you for mentioning! They were all looking at my different socks now. One white and one black. My little toe was also peeking out from my right foot. Little did I know that it was a hole. I just took off both of my socks instead of letting them be a target for temptation. I threw them at their King. "That! Eat it!" I shouted at him. "...you're a fool! You're just going to show up and do that? No one will notice!" He slowly walked towards us. His sigh became deep. He faced me with serious eyes. I couldn't see any anger. He didn't have the K to be angry with me! He even managed to pick up my shoes and socks. He handed them to Felix who was closest to him. "Done?" He asked without any emotion. I couldn't answer. I felt embarrassed by that one word. My anger towards him grew even more. I really wanted to rush him but my feet didn't want to step. "...If you're done, I'll leave." He added and tried to turn his back on me. Oh, you're really a dam! "You're good at that! Turn around and leave!" I shouted and he stopped. "...Go ahead! Leave! That's all you can do! You can only deal with your own blows!" "J-jay... That's enough." I heard Rory's reprimand. "Let Keifer go, maybe he has something important to take care of ." Denzel added. "Really?!" I replied sarcastically. "...take care of it? Or run away?" He looked at me again but this time I could see emotion in him. I couldn't say what it was but I knew he wasn't happy with what I was saying. Even so, I continued speaking. "...You haven't even confronted me about your nonsense with me! Then you're leaving again? What? Like that again? I'll wait again? Wait a minute!" "This might not be the right time to talk about it." Percy said seriously, which surprised me. He only gets serious sometimes and often the reason isn't good. Even so, I chose to ignore him and still face the Demon King. "If you're going to leave, leave." I said softly. "...but I can't promise you'll come back." Because I didn't know if I could. "Done?" He asked again, irritating me even more, but instead of cursing him, I just nodded. I thought he was going to leave. I thought he was going to turn around and leave me again. But I was wrong. It was as if something clicked in his brain. He took a big step towards me and was very serious. I was about to take a step back but his two hands immediately grabbed my face. "You talk to much." He said and our lips quickly met . I heard the reactions of the Vipers and others who saw us. But nothing else comes to my mind. All I know is, he's with me. This is our time and this opportunity is ours alone. There's no E-SCENE! But it was all just a moment. I gradually felt Keifer's body getting heavier. In less than a second, his body fell on me. Because of his excessive weight, we both fell on the floor. "KEIFER!" I shouted loudly. Something's wrong! Why is this? The Snakes immediately ran towards us. They tried to lift Keifer so I could leave. I immediately looked at him as I could move properly. He was unconscious, his lips were pale. I couldn't understand! He was walking ï¬ne earlier. "Keifer! W-what's going on? Open your eyes!" I said while patting his cheek. Go ahead! I haven't charged you yet! "Let me through!" Yuri's voice was as he chased away the Snakes who were blocking him. He knelt in front of Keifer and tried to make him fall. Although I was surprised, I let him go because maybe he knew better what to do. Yuri lifted his coat and I stopped when I saw the reason for everything. Blood was flowing from his back. I thought he didn't have any scratches or wounds from what happened earlier, but it seemed like he did it on purpose so that we wouldn't know. They tore Keifer's clothes and two holes in his skin appeared to us. Blood was flowing like a leak from a faucet. "Ci-N!" Yuri called. "...What should I do?" Ci hurriedly approached him. "P-pressure... I need to p-stop the bleeding!" Yuri and Ci took off both their shirts and wrapped them around it. They pressed it against Keifer's wound at the same time. "Someone call an ambulance!" David shouted. "I'm doing it!" Percy replied. While they were busy helping the bloody King, here I was and couldn't move. I was just looking at my hands, not realizing that they were covered in blood. They were so fresh and I could still smell the foul smell. Move! Keifer needs you! I can't do it. I'm dizzy, my stomach feels like it's going to turn over. There's so much blood, I feel like someone is going to die. I don't want this feeling. I can't stop shivering, which is already deep inside me. "YAY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Yuri shouted at me angrily. "...Help us here!" I started shaking. "I-I can't... Get him away from me." I could feel everyone looking at me. Full of surprise and judgment.
