V Morningstar [BTS]

Pride (3)

Lucifer left and V couldn't stop himself from thinking.

L:
"A loving father, the prodigal son, two brothers."

Two brothers ~

V's eyes widened. Worried.

Could it be?

He immediately stood on his knees and forced himself to move.

V:
"Angel Grace ~ "

_____________

Catching his breath, V Morningstar opened the door of the room that once was prohibited.

There, he found her. The Angel Grace painting.

He slowly walked towards the wall where it was mounted.

Mysteriously staring back at him.

V:
"Your eyes."

He raised his hand and was about to touch the delicate piece of art. His fingers to lay the eyes.

But ~ he was halted by a cold hand on his arm.

He turned to see who it was.

V:
"Why ~ "

He moved his hand away from the artwork and looked at the human who stopped him.

Tears ~

V:
"Why ~ are you. . . . crying?"

But she never say a word. She only stared at painting with her tears that kept on falling.

V:
"Heavens ~ "

Angel Grace did not pay attention. She was too immersed in looking at.

Angel Grace:
    "Morningstar . . . I'm scared."

That's when V pulled her in his embrace.

Then she came back to her senses.

V hugged her tight. He too felt the same. But he would never admit it.

He wanted to ask her why? He wanted to tell her that he's just there. But what for? Why would he do that? Why would he care?

V:
"Heavens . . ."

Angel Grace slowly moved away from him. She was crying, she looked terrified.

Thinking about her nightmares, she no longer wanted going alseep.

V:
   "I'm . . . scared too."

Angel Grace looked at him. He looked weary, disturbed . . .

It was unbelievable for the son of the devil to say those words.

But he did.

Angel Grace:
    "Scared of what?"

V moved towards the door and left her with a single word she didn't expect him to say.

"Death."
