REMEMBER

Part 25

It was getting late but Onin and Kimhan didn't care. Well, it was Kimhan's idea actually not to go home because he knows that the guys are drunk and they have another round in the mansion. The mere thought of them embarrassing their drunk ass gives him a headache.

They were in Kimhan's studio; no, it's Wik's studio. Onin was so excited he could not stop smiling when they were inside the car.

As soon as Kimhan opened the door of his studio, Onin went inside as fast as the lightning; giggling and doing little jumps like an excited kid that was about to enter his favorite toy store.

Cute. 

That was Kimhan's thought as he looked at the younger one being amazed by what his studio looked like.

"This is amazing." Onin said in awe, crouching while looking at Kimhan's guitar collection.

"Do you know how to play guitar?" Kimhan asked, hoping that Onin would say yes.

A small pout formed on Onin's face and his shoulder dropped. He heaved a sigh as he stood straight to face Kimhan with sadden eyes. Onin didn't know how to play guitar. He never had the chance to have one. As far as he can remember, the only thing that he did for the past years was study and study.

Oh. That's the only thing that pooped out of Kimhan's mind. He secretly hoped that Onin could play because it would increase the possibility that he is Kimhan's angel.

"I've been wanting to learn..." Onin started as he picked up the brown acoustic guitar near Kimhan's sofa.

It was Porchay's and Kimhan never let anyone touch it until now. Then Onin closed his eyes and smiled. The feeling of the guitar on his lap was somewhat familiar; the texture, the sound of the strings feels like it was known to him a long time ago and Kimhan was just there, staring at him; watching as Onin's fingers started to touch the strings that never produced a sound for seven years.

"There's a melody that's been playing on rewind inside my head." Onin said to Kimhan, still his eyes are closed. Then he started to strum the guitar that left Kimhan speechless.

Cause I, wanna stay, on your side

Even if the world come crashing down tonight.

We'll be fine,

Hold me close and we'll just leave it all behind,

Why don't you stay?

A smile grimace on Onin's face. It was so satisfying. The way his fingers touch the strings of the guitar; the way its sounds resonate inside the room felt like a part of his. He felt happy but he didn't know a tear fell from his eyes.

"Oh, I'm sorry if I..." then he wiped the tears that were still flowing. He looked at Kimhan and Onin was utterly confused. He was crying too.

"P'Kim??? Why are you crying? Did I do something wrong?"

And just when he was about to reach out, a voice cracked all the tension between them. It was Venus with a box of pizza and soda on both hands, smiling awkwardly at them.

"Care for some pizza?"
