나비

For eloqii_

"Joongyuk-ah, did you know? Loved ones visit you in a form of a butterfly."

Or that's what Kim Dokja says.

Yoo Joongyuk raised an eyebrow.

Sandali, 'wag kang mapupuno sa paghihirap

Yoo Joongyuk was never the one to believe in such superstitions, he would rather go and train in order to face the future scenarios.

Yes, he would rather do that.

Darating din ang pag-asa mong pinapangarap
Hindi ba sapat na ika'y mayro'ng pag-ibig

It somehow changed when Kim Dokja appeared in his 3rd regression turn.

"You believe in those things?" Han Sooyoung snorts while crunching a lemon candy in her teeth.

Kim Dokja shrugs, "Should I visit you as a ghoul then?"

Na sa puso mong hindi maipapalit?
Ika'y ngumiti

Something snapped in Yoo Joonghyuk's mind as he glared at the reader, he glowered, "Kim Dokja."

As if sensing Yoo Joonghyuk's killing intent, Kim Dokja just laughed it off like a joke.

Ihip ng hangin sa kamay mong malamig
Daing na tinig, nasa aking pandinig

"Aigoo, I did promise I won't go and sacrifice myself again didn't I? Don't worry too much."

Liliparin ang isipan mo't damdamin
Makarating pa kaya sa kanyang piling?
Ika'y pumikit

Just like Kim Dokja promised to not sacrifice himself, Yoo Joongyuk silently promised that he wouldn't regress anymore.

"KIM DOKJA!"

"Joongyuk-ah."

Kim Dokja is a liar.

Kung panalangin ko'y 'di marinig
Abutin man ng bawat sandali

Yoo Joongyuk pounded the door of Carriage 3707, the Hounds that was chasing him growled.

Kailangan kong isigaw, ako'y iyong iyo

[You are not permitted to cross the final wall.]

Yoo Joongyuk didn't care about the pain, he didn't care about the blood that was pouring down. What he cares the most was the reader inside.

Ang dalangin ng puso'y ikaw

He should've hold Kim Dokja in his arms a little bit longer. He should have noticed that there was something wrong.

He regrets many things. Looking back, he should have been with Kim Dokja more. The emotions he felt was the same as with Lee Seolhwa back then.

But with Kim Dokja, it's stronger.

Sandali, 'wag mong pigilan ang iyong pagluha
Damdamin mo'y aahon sa tumigil na tadhana

Just as he could reach the reader, everything went dark as he jolted awake.

"Captain, we're here."

Yoo Joongyuk looked at Biyoo, whose face was the same as Kim Dokja's. He sighs as he looked at the cluster of stars just outside the ark.

Aabutin ng 'yong palad ang hangarin
Makarating pa kaya sa kanyang piling?

Right, he was scattering the fool's story throughout.
