[BL] THE 1,000th CRANE (CHAPTER 2)

"Lewis...."

"Be mine? I'm sorry but I don't want to be tied with someone" Lewis said as he angrily threw the cigarette away.

"To me you're just a-----------"

*Gasp*

A dream?

It's been so long since I last dreamt about that scumbag.

It's Tuesday March 22, 7:43 AM.

-----------

"Brent!!!" ---That voice.....

It's Gabriel.

He placed his arms around my shoulder.

"Good morning." He said with a bright smile. "Are you going to finish the Origami you left last week?"

It's been a week since Gabriel started following me. And he really likes seeing me folding origami. Maybe because he's really that eager to learn how to make origami? Wtf there is internet dude.

"Why are you so obsessed with it? Why don't you make it yourself if you wanted it to get finished? And are we close? Get your hands off me!" I said as I shoved his arms away.

"Hahaha you're so cute when you're pissed! Hahaha."

I just glared at him as he continues laughing.

"Hahaha, but seriously, I don't know how to make origami, if you can teach me I will be glad." He said confidently with matching smile on his face.

I walked away.

"Hey wait!" He said while following me.

----------

*Lunch break*

💢💢💢💢

"Just what the hell do you want from me?! I can't even eat my meal properly!"

I'm at the cafeteria with this jerk.

"Hahahaha" seriously? He just laughed?

"You're so cute when you're pissed hahaahah"

"This is the second time you mentioned that!" I said and angrily ate my food.

"Because it's true. And as you said, I will say this again for the second time, I want you to teach me to make origami."

"Why do I have to do that? Do I owe you something?"

"Nope, I just want to give it to someone." He said and he smiled again to me.

I'm lying if I tell you that his smiles doesn't bother me. Every time he smiles I feel like, I can stare at his smile for my whole life.

But what I'm feeling is....

His smile is a trap. It can take you to heaven..... And hell.......

-FLASHBACK-

"Oh! Brent you're already here!"

The words of the devil

I faced the man who first ruined my life. My childhood friend. The thorn in my garden, the poison to my drink.

"Lewis..." I replied.

He waited for my shift to finish. I can tell he's been waiting for too long because of the number of cigarettes on the ground.

"Have you eaten? Let's go home." He said as he exhaled the cigarette smoke.

--------

"Ah Lewis stop! L-let me take a shower first! I just came back from hah~"  he kissed me torridly like we didn't even do it before I went to work.

"I don't mind." He said then he smiled at me.

He just don't mind what I wanted to say. He always wanted  to have his way on me. And I'm this stupid idiot who let him do whatever he want.

This is my life now. Resistance won't make anything better. All I can do now is go with the flow of destiny.

I woke up. And as usual, after he do it to me. He'll be gone the next day.

Somehow, the image of his smile flashing through my mind makes me feel butterflies for some reason. It is the smile that he never give to others. It is a special smile only for me.

{Have you eaten? Let's go home.} -Lewis

Come to think of it. We did it all night till I passed out.

"Ha-- I'm hungry...." I mumbled.

I looked for food in the kitchen but nothing's in there.

"That scumbag asked me if I had eaten already, but he didn't even make food for me before leaving." 

How caring! (\*In sarcastic tune\*)

\----END OF FLASHBACK-----

"Hey are you done spacing out?"

Huh? I think I just came back to my senses. Hanging out with this guy reminds me of him.

"I'll just finish my meal then I'll get going----- what the! Where is my burger?!"

"Huh? I ate it already. I'm asking you if you want it but you didn't answer. Silence means yes though hahahaha."

"What the \*\*\*\* is wrong with you?" He's really getting into my nerves. I gathered my things and walked away.

"Hey! I'm just joking I just hid it! Here it is!"

I ran away.

\--------

Huff..... Huff... Hah... Ha.....

"Hahahaha tired already?" He said as he handed me a bottle of water.

I quickly grabbed it and went to the bench and sat. I drank the water to my heart's content.

"You really like running away....."

My eyes suddenly widened as I heard what he says. This time I felt really mad. How can he say such words even though he doesn't know me?!!

I threw the empty bottle to him.

"Who the \*\*\*\* are you to say that? You don't even know me! You just suddenly appeared to my life and decided to be my tail and now you're acting like you knew me!"

"Huh? I guess I did hit the spot."

"Tsk! Fck you."

I really don't like people intruding other people's privacy. It is being disrespectful.

Ha-- I'm so pissed right now that I wanted to cry.

but suddenly, I thought.......

"I'm sorry."

After hearing those words. I looked at him. He's facing me and Gabriel's face really shows some sincerity with those words.

suddenly I thought......maybe I'm so mad......

because he's right?
