The man, having lived an eventful and wild life, had dutifully noted down all his experiences, partly to pass time, partly so he could soothe his crippling fear of...no longer existing? He always said he was not scared of dying, but everyone around him knew that thought terrified him to his bone.

In the pouring rain a man sat under a pavilion. A weeping willow dripped with rainwater, its branches flopping limply in the wind. Tender dawn was fading gradually, the world sleepily waking to the new rainy day.

The man was barefoot and sitting on the thick marble railing right below the tip of the shelter. His lashes were dotted with droplets, but he stared ahead serenely. His silvery hair fluttered at the base of his neck, his pale skin riddled with goosebumps.

"Taehyun."

The man twisted, eyes melting into a kind smile, his crow's feet crinkling. A slender woman approached him, young with sleek black hair. "Couldn't sleep?" She asked, stopping a few feet away from him.

"It was raining," Taehyun replied simply, returning his attention to the slow drip drop of the rain.

The woman stayed silent, wringing her fingers. "Bahiyyih." Her head snapped up. "Bahiyyih, I am going to die soon."
