Mellow Breeze.
|^-^| 1
Recently, the weather was quite gloomy.
The vast sky was overcast with dark clouds-
The rain was light at first,
But then lightning struck, and the rain turned heavy.
Near the convenience store, a tall girl stood with a cigarette in her right hand and a lighter in the other.
Kayra Lopez [Fl's BFF]
"Should I tell Aunt that you are smoking again?"
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
*Looks at her from the corner of her eyes and offers her one.*
Kayra Lopez [Fl's BFF]
"Nahh, I am good." *She took the cigarette and conveniently helped herself get the lighter too.*
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
"That's the payment."
Kayra Lopez [Fl's BFF]
*Her movements paused.* "How serious?"
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
"Needs stitches."
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
Mom, I'm finally back!
Daisy Lowe. [Fl's Mom]
"Sweetheart!!" *Lungs at her and gives her a bear hug*
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
*Frowns*
Daisy Lowe. [Fl's Mom]
*She uses her index finger to softly smooth out her frown.*
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
*Reluctantly hugs her back.*
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
"I am sleepy" *Nuzzling her head on her mom's shoulder.*
Daisy Lowe. [Fl's Mom]
"Go to sleep." *Looking at her with a soft gaze.*
On the balcony, Daisy sat on the low-seated couch and looked up at the sky in a daze.
Daisy Lowe. [Fl's Mom]
"When will she control herself a little?" *Sighs in worry*
A pleasant and sweet smell filled the surrounding air, and a hand rested on her shoulders, making her turn her head.
Amara Lowe. [Fl's Aunt]
"What's up sister??" *Rests her hand on daisy's shoulders.*
Daisy Lowe. [Fl's Mom]
"She is injured on her back."
Mid-talk, Amara stood up to intercept Rosette, who was rushing out in the middle of the night.
Amara Lowe. [Fl's Aunt]
"Oh my- where are you going?" *Stands up to intercept Rosette*
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
"Will be back in an hour."
Amara Lowe. [Fl's Aunt]
"What about your wounds?"
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
"The person is more important."
In the innermost corner of an alley, a tall and lean person was curled up— seemingly in a lot of pain. Blood seeped out from his pristine white shirt.
His long eyelashes fluttered as if he were about to wake up, but he didn't.
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
*Strides towards that figure.*
Rosette picked the person up in a princess-carry, and as she felt the cold body snuggle closer seeking warmth, her heart ached for him.
The man on the bed was pale, but his jade like features gave off a sickly-beauty.
Right beside the bed was Rosette, her clothes disheveled.
Her aunt, who was a trauma surgeon, removed the stitches on her shoulder that had split open and sewed them back.
She suppressed the feeling of nausea— that was an after-effect of anesthesia.
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
*Looks at the pale hand gripping the hem of her t-shirt, and her ears turn pink*
Amara Lowe. [Fl's Aunt]
*Looks at her always composed niece, losing her composure for the nth time because of the same guy*
Amara Lowe. [Fl's Aunt]
*Smiles*

She lay on her back, her arms gently resting on her face-
She abruptly changed her position, a suspicious red glazing her cheeks as she closed her eyes and tried to sleep.
Amara Lowe. [Fl's Aunt]
*Knocks on the door.*
Amara Lowe. [Fl's Aunt]
Sweetie?
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
The door's not locked.
Amara Lowe. [Fl's Aunt]
"Won't you tell your mom what you are up to?" *Sits on the edge of her bed*
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
".... Does she know about my injury?"
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
"I wonder how she is so perceptive." *Sighs*
Amara Lowe. [Fl's Aunt]
"She used to be more reckless than you are when she was your age."
Amara Lowe. [Fl's Aunt]
"Be grateful she doesn't know your wound is so serious."
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
"I will talk to her later."
A man with chiseled and good-looking features was conversing with his beautiful wife.
Charles Kay [Ml's Dad]
"I received a call from the hospital."
Charles Kay [Ml's Dad]
"They said Niven was heavily injured."
Hope Evera [Ml's Mom]
"Go and check on him then."
She spoke so decisively, as if she didn't care the least about her son.
Charles Kay [Ml's Dad]
"Heh, he is an adult now. Why should I care about him?"
Charles Kay [Ml's Dad]
"This time when he returns, I will sever all ties with that burden."
What use was this beauty when the heart was tainted black?
In the ward, Niven overheard the nurse talking to someone on her phone.
Nurse/Receptionist/ Hospital personnel.
📲 Some parents don't deserve to have a child.
:"Why are you saying that?"
Nurse/Receptionist/ Hospital personnel.
"We have a heavily injured patient, called his parents to inform them. They blocked further calls from us."
Nurse/Receptionist/ Hospital personnel.
"Sigh.. How pitiful."
Niven Kay. [Ml]
💭 Pitiful....
Niven Kay. [Ml]
*Clenches his fist*
He closed his eyes, hoping to stop the tears threatening to flow from his eyes. But it didn't— His tears slipped down the corners of his eyes soaking the pillow beneath his head.
One drop at a time until, he couldn't even cry anymore.
Maybe because she liked him for a long, long time-
Rosette subconsciously had a huge urge to check up on him
She took her car keys and sped up so that she could reach him sooner.

The golden rays of sunlight peeked into the hospital ward.
Illuminating the pale figure of the man on the bed.
(Something like that. Couldn't find the exact pic)
Rosette has just entered the room when her eyes met his. They were dark brown, A common color but the emotions reflected within were so intense— She was bewitched.
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
*Staring at him in a daze.*
Niven Kay. [Ml]
*Clears his throat* "Um. Hii??" * Waves his hand hesitantly.*
His voice was gentle but undeniably hoarse.
His eyes were still swollen from crying, pillow still damp with his tears.
Looking at his swollen and red-rimmed eyes, her fists clenched.
She reined in the urge to destroy something and offered him a glass of water.
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
"How are you feeling now?" * Pours him a glass of water.*
Niven Kay. [Ml]
*Hesitantly brings the glass of water to his lips.*
He could only hope that her eyes weren't swollen-
Unfortunately, they were.
She admired him.
As he tilted his head back.
When he swallowed,, and his Adam's apple bobbed.
When he blinked.
As he inhaled.
As he exhaled
Her eyes took in his movements and they lit up, as if admiring the most beautiful thing in this world.
Niven Kay. [Ml]
*Feels her gaze.*
*A pink hue adorns his pale face.*
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
*Smiles*
He lowered his head, still feeling down because of his parents.
When Rosette saw him looking so lonely and sad-
They were clearly not far from each other.
But to Rosette the distance felt too far away. It made her uneasy.
Her hands hanging to her sides slowly clenched into fists.
Niven unexpectedly shivered, as if targeted by a Hunter.
Rosette Brian. [Female Lead]
"Are you cold?"
The hunter asked in a gentle voice.
Niven Kay. [Ml]
"I think I am..."
The prey replied, Quite unsuspecting.
