⟨06⟩ Dead And Gone??

"Hello, am I speaking to Mr. Yang Jungwon?" An unfamiliar voice on the phone asked.

"Yes, who is this?" He asked back.

"I'm calling on behalf of....Lee Heeseung? Do you know him?"

"Yeah, he's my.....what about him?"

"I think it's better you come and see for yourself, I've sent you the location" The call ended with a beep sounds as Jungwon tried to figure if the call might've been a scammer. He decided to go for the sake of Heeseung.

However, he wouldn't go alone, but with his friend, Park Jay, who was more than happy to accompany him.

"Is this it?" Jay asked as they seemed to near a white retro-looking building.

"I think so" The closer they went towards the building, the more people there seemed to be in it.

Only once they were in it did they realise, this was a crime scene.
A certain group of people were surrounding something or rather, someone.

The both made their way through the crowd with Jungwon's heart beating faster than ever, when he saw the sight that he had dreaded the most- A dead body.

Not just anybody's, it was Lee Heeseung's. He fell on his knees, his eyes wide open in horror.

"That's not him, is it? Did he have some secret twin or something? That can't be him, he can't die, he's a vampire, right?" He was now hyperventilating.

"Jungwon, calm down, please, I know this is too much, but you're saying absolute rubbish right now" Jay bent down to his level as the surrounding crowd stepped back from the forensic team pushing them to the side.

"We found a letter on the table which gave us your number, that's how we called you. We're really sorry for your loss, but I think there's something you need to see" One of them spoke.

"What is it?" Jungwon asked, red eyes filled with tears as he looked where the person pointed.

It was Heeseung's hand, clutching a piece of paper. He slowly took the letter with one hand and held the dead fingers tight with the other.

"No....no, no, no! Why?!" Jungwon screamed. He held Heeseung's hand right as he hugged the ice-cold dead body.

Jay just stood there, watching his friend's pathetic condition.

There was nothing any of them could do.

"Sir, please step away so we can perform the postportem" one of the people from the forensic team said due to which Jay tried to gently pull away Jungwon.

"Wait, give me a minute" The boy pleaded as he spoke into Heeseung's ear-

"I don't believe that you're dead, you told me you're a vampire, I know you're somewhere out there, but for now, I'll try to forget you, only because I have a feeling that I'm going to see you once again, goodbye for now, Heeseung" Jungwon left after taking the white rose which was placed between his lips. He had finally stopped crying.
