The Days When I’m With You

In the ocean of strangers, among billions of passerby, I who was reborn as Li Fei chanced upon you. And just like birds of the same feather, we flocked together. Seeking love and filling the empty hole, thinking the possibility of “us” that remained unknown. I couldn’t promise you my heart or forever. But know that if we did end up missing each other, please remember there was a time when we were in each other’s arms. There was a time when I had been your stranger and you had been mine. —————— “Woman, you should know that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach!” I sneered, “And do you wanna know the way to a woman’s heart?” “What?” I whispered closely to his ear, “It’s when the man do all the work for us.” Him, “...” With my index finger, I lifted his chin. “So, who’s gonna cook later?” “I shall gladly serve you, My Lady.” ________________ Follow my ig: @author_kiiara [Cover: credits to the artist | Source: Pinterest]

Hiroto's Past (3)

As I had stood outside the door, my feet had rooted to the ground, and my entire being rendered immobilized. That was how I had come to realize the cruel reality of life. The ugly nature of humans. The disgusting truth of my own grandfather.

I had believed in him. I had trusted him. I had done what he had wanted. But even then, why? Why was it never enough for him?

Why take my mother? Why not me?

Even then, it was still not enough. They had still wanted to take Airi away from me. I had never asked for anything. I had never complained. Why?

What did I do wrong? Where had I gone wrong?

"Hiroto-kun, can you...help your mother?"

"Please...work hard. Harder than anyone. Be the very best for your mother. Can you... do that?"

Not until it had been too late, had I understood what mother had meant. From the start, she had known what was going to happen. She had no choice, no power to retaliate against grandfather. Her only hope was me.
