As he looked around, he caught a glimpse of movement in the distance. Without a second thought, he began to run towards it. His heart beat wildly in his chest, anxiety coursing through him as he ran as fast as he could.
He continued running, his breaths coming out in short gasps as he pushed himself, refusing to slow down. The thought of Aira in danger, or worse, filled him with a sense of dread that fueled his determination to reach her.
As he got closer to the source of the movement he had seen, he slowed to a halt, panting heavily. He could just about make out the figure sitting on the ground ahead of him. Relief, worry and confusion all mingled together as he approached the figure, hoping it was Aira.
He called out her name, his voice filled with concern. "Aira, is that you?"
The figure seemed to stiffen before slowly turning around, revealing Aira's face, tear-streaked and pale.
Haechan breathed a sigh of relief, but the relief was short-lived as he noticed the look of fear in her eyes.
He quickly closed the remaining distance between them and knelt down beside her. "Are you okay? What happened?" he asked, the worry evident in his voice.
Aira didn't say anything at first, her body trembling slightly. After a moment, she finally spoke, her voice shaky. "My- My head hurts... I... I remembered something."
Haechan's gaze snapped back to her face, his expression growing even more concerned. "What did you remember, baby?" he asked, his voice laced with worry.
Aira took a deep breath to calm herself down before speaking. "Who my real parents are." This caused Haechan to be confused.
"Real parents? What do you mean?" He questioned her, hoping she'd tell him what's going on.
"Johnny's parents adopted me. After my parents put me up for adoption... I... I remember who they are... I don't... I don't know what do do."
Haechans eyes softened as this, pulling the girl into a hug. "Who are they? I'll help you find them."
"Kang Haewon and Kang Ye-jun." Aira states, causing Haechans eyes to widen. Why? Because they're the rulers of hell.
"You're the heir to the throne?! You're human!" Haechan practically shouts, confused by the situation.
"I don't know, haechan. That's what I remember." Haechan sighs and decides to change the question.
"So... My father killed Johnny's parents? Is that why Johnny said he's more affected than you?"
Aira nods her head slightly, her voice quivering. "Your father ordered the death of them. You know the new kid? His parents killed them."
The oldest eyebrows shoot up in surprise, not knowing how to reply to that. "Byeol, the guy at the door... It was Akuma."
