The blade sliced through the air and cut the rag doll in front of me in two.
"Haa...haa..."
Out of breath, he lay on the floor. His hair, quite long for a man, covered his face.
I pushed my hair away and looked up to see a sky full of clouds.
And then suddenly someone's face came into my sight.
"Noah!"
Hair as white as a snow field and vibrant red eyes.
It was a favor.
"Brother, you were training again this morning? That's amazing."
I grabbed Eunho's wrist and pulled him next to me.
"I used to have a friend who would wake me up every morning... so I became a morning person too."
Eunho smiled at my words and answered.
"That guy named Nam Ye-jun? He only talks about you all the time... I'm going to get jealous."
Did I really talk about Yejun that much? I can't even remember it anymore...
...
Yeah, that's a lie. In fact, it comes to mind so well.
Yejun's speech, expression, and every single action...
If I can't find you even after looking for you now, that probably means you're dead, right?
Still, Yejun, I miss you
I can't forget every single moment I spent with you
You said you liked the sound of my laughter
So I always tried to smile, even during the past ten years when you were gone.
No matter how sad...
I tried to laugh.
But now I'm tired of laughing.
When I woke up yesterday, I was crying.
The war repeats itself day after day, and without you, how long can I smile?
•••
While I was holding Eunho's hand and staring blankly for a while, a raindrop fell from the sky.
Eunho held my hand and ran to the base...
Even if the weather is like this, the fight will continue.
I've been here for five years, but it's still a battlefield where you never know when you might die.
I glanced at Eunho, who was standing next to me.
As always, he had a nervous expression.
I took his hand, and only then did his expression relax and he looked at me.
"Noah... I hope you survive today too!"
He spoke playfully, just like a puppy.
He always acts like he's a cold wolf, but...
No, seriously, where did you see Soljiki...
But I still have to save Eunho! I won't say anything about that.
Kwaang•••
The rain was getting heavier, but the rebels all went to the front lines.
"let's go!"
At those words, we all grabbed our swords and bows and ran.
and...
I spotted someone with blue hair on the other side.
...Nam Ye-jun?
But soon the blue hair disappeared, and I thought I was mistaken.
'Haha... Yejuna, I think I'm hallucinating now.'
I thought so and raised my head.
You were running at me with a knife pointed at you.
"Yejun!"
You didn't seem to hear me.
As your blade flew towards me, I dodged to the side.
The blade I couldn't dodge grazed my arm...
I grabbed his arm and took off my mask.
"Nam Ye-jun!!"
And then, your eyes widened for a moment.
Even though 10 years have passed, the fact that my eyes get really big when I'm surprised hasn't changed...
"...Han Noah?"
And you hugged me.
Your shoulders were shaking like that...
I could only pat him on the back.
"Yejun..."
