[M] The Sound That I Hear (1/1)
Edgar Allan Poe once said, "Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before". Deep into my mind, though clouded with darkness, I lay wishing, questioning, drowning in my feelings. I don't understand others, maybe that's just my slight autism breaking through. They never do what you expect them to do. Like Hyun Su, even after the Jiyeon incident, embraced and assured me of how important I was to him. Like Hyun Seongseangnim, though he is my teacher, was so heartbroken seeing me there with Yixing that he yelled at me and made me go home. Like Yixing, who has seen my beastly crying face, still wanting to kiss me. I wish he had kissed me. Knock Knock"Uh...come in?" I spoke unsure of who was behind the cream colored door. In Woo's poked her face in the doorway, "Can I talk with you?"I shrug simply, still apprehensive. What in holy fuck would In Woo want to do with me?She slipped into my room very ninga like, not making a single sound, and settled on the edge of my bed. I stared her door from my seat at the study desk. In Woo began to play with her fingers, twitting them very annoyingly. "Listen. I am here to...I'm trying...AH!" She threw her hands up to her face. "I mean it's not like it's my fault.You just make it so easy to hate you.""What does that even mean?""You know...it's just how you are. You look so sad all the time. Always scowling at things and pretending to be uninterested. It's annoying. And then sometimes you look so damn happy, like happiness belongs to only you! So I make you feel sad to feel better," she twirls her hair around her middle finger, "And it's makes me feel so good. It's just something about you being depressed. Maybe it's that look that you get, like your dying inside whenever Sehun calls you a dog.""I wasn't aware of my face.""Well it shows and I almost feel bad sometimes. But I can't."I quirked an eyebrow, "Why not?"She looked at me incredulously. "Because I'll just be in the background if I don't. If you can't tell umma and appa believe Sehun oppa can do no wrong. And Ae Rin is just too cute to not play attention to. Before you came I was just In Woo, who loves to dress prettily and was just the second child. But when you came you gave me the chance to receive some attention. Appa and umma actually notice me now.""But they yell at you because you bully me.""But it's better than being invisible. I'd rather be known for being a trouble maker than for just merely being one of their children." Her face looked so disheveled. "I sound stupid, right?"For some reason, I forgot all the shit she put me through, well almost forgot, for a moment. I calmly rose from the swivel chair and walked over to my closet. I pulled out a discarded Pucca backpack from my childhood and retrieved a notebook out of it. I put the book into In Woo's lap and watched her expectedly. She opened the page and raised an eyebrow. "Wha...?""They're hell dogs. When I was about six years old Jiyeon, the woman from earlier, left me in the park for hours. It was winter and unmistakably brisk. Snow had only managed a few inches and I had on a dress, with orange rain boots on. I was cold. But I didn't leave the park because I did not know my way home. So I waited for Jiyeon."Some time went by and I began to lose panic. I stopped caring whether Jiyeon would come back or not. I decided then that I simply enjoyed freezing in the winter weather. I sat on a park bench, swinging my legs back and forth. Then there was a russling in the bushes behind me. I turned and saw a tall man with black eyes. All I saw were his eyes, for he wore a coat that covered the rest of him. He sauntered over to me and knelt into the snow. "Are you alone, little girl?Yes, mister.Is someone looking for you?No, mister.Are you afraid out here by yourself?No, the cold keeps me safe. But for some reason the man seemed to not believe me. So he gazed into the bush, and out came three dogs unlike any other I had seen before. They had short, raven colored fur and blazing red eyes. They were growling and showing off their well developed canines. The man looked at me and noticed I remained indifferent to the creatures. He beckoned them over to me and they obeyed. These are my hell dogs, they will protect you."Her eyes shined with intrigue, "What happened?""I woke up in the hospital with acute frost bite.""BUT WHAT ABOUT THE DOGS? AND THE MAN?""I never saw the man again, but the dogs reappear every now and again. I saw them the night I moved in."She patted the book in her hands, "So what's this for?"I shrug. "I figured since we were confessing things I'd put that out there. I have pictures and sketches of the dogs and little entries about each one. Their interesting beings, those hell dogs.""That's kind of...nice of you.""Well unlike you, I didn't get any sick thrills watching you squirm before me. If anything, this just shows you how we're alike. Seeking attention and all that good stuff."In Woo nods her head and stands, notebook still in hand. "This doesn't mean I like you or anything. I'm just burying bad blood."I smile briefly, "I wouldn't want you any other way. Oh and In Woo, it was all a dream. The dogs and the man.""Fucking liar."After she left the room I attempted to resume my physics work. But there was a persistent tap of a tree trunk at my window. I peered outside, noticing red lights in the darkness of the night. "You bloody little hounds."Soft howling cut through the silence of the night. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Hello AFFers!
