The monster felt a burning sensation stab on his forehead. It took him a bit to understand what was going on when a hot, thick liquid slide down exactly from the place where the big stone landed. He stayed silent, raising his hand to touch the thick liquid, wondering what was it. His delicate fingers, stained with red. It was blood. His blood. Strange, the monster thought at the back of his mind. So I have the same blood color as you… However, it wasn’t that simple as he heard the angry, scared voice of the villagers. “Monster!!” Some of them were even holding their harrows, some of them; richer ones were ready to attack him with their swords and he could hear some of them were hurrying to get their rifles. The monster’s eyes widened as he realized what was going on. The monster felt a different emotion invade his heart. It was horrible, hard and it wasn’t like anything he had felt before. A deep, sharp and heavy feeling invaded his whole being.

That was the first time that the monster felt betrayed.

When Sho opened his door next morning, ready to go to find Satoshi with his bag and all, he found Nino in front of him with crossed arms. He had a stern look on his face. “Where do you think you are going?” He asked with narrowed eyes.

Sho blinked with surprise, “Nino, why are you here?”

Nino clicked his tongue. “Don’t return my question with another question. Where do you think you are going?”

“Um… Work?” Sho replied with a confused look on his face.

Nino squinted. “With that rucksack?”

Sho couldn’t say anything to that. Nino heaved a sigh. “I don’t care what you are planning but I am taking you to work today. You are the manager if you still remember it, we need your signs and such things to be able to work,” Nino explained patiently. “So, you are coming with me to work today even if you don’t like,” Nino said finally, leaving no place for any arguments.

Sho couldn’t do anything but letting Nino drag himself to work.

Sho never thought that there will be a day that his work would feel inconvenient. He liked working. He was basically a workaholic and so many people hated this habit of his. He didn’t actually had any reasons for being like this. Maybe it was because of he simply didn’t have any other things to do. Work kept him busy and he felt useful. Nino needed holidays from time to time especially after they finish a big project for them because he needed to relieve all the pressure inside him with a long gaming session and beer. However, Sho wouldn’t really feel like he needed any kind of holidays if he is not dead sick. Even with that, he actually kept working from his home. However that day, he really wanted to other things than working. Like going to find Satoshi. But then again, he was making Nino work alone for three days already.

They were a small architecture office which mostly did jobs for other small construction companies. Sho and Nino met in the university. They were both basically living in the library since Nino’s small student apartment's heating system wasn’t working well and Sho simply liked being in the library. Nino was in his second year while Sho was a fourth-year student. They were both in the same department so their friendship was fast but safe. They hang out together all the time they had and eventually Nino got into Sho’s small friend group which included Aiba and Jun.

After Sho’s graduation, he worked with some prestigious architectures and when Nino graduated finally; Sho decided to open his little office together with Nino. Their office started as a small job with just him and Nino but now they had other 3 full-time employees and some part-timers who are mostly students. Since both Sho and Nino knew how was being a student, they actually liked helping their part-time employees and having them around. 2 of 3 full-time employees were also started as a part-timer. They managed to hold in the business world somehow and Nino was smart and talented so he never had any problems with trusting his back when it comes to Nino. So he couldn’t say anything to Nino when he wanted him at work.

When they get to their small but neat office, Sho was immediately drowned in the work. Nino may be a very talented person but still, everything needed to be reviewed by Sho eventually. 3 days worth of work had already been waiting for him on his desk while he had been thinking about Satoshi for that 3 days. Once he started working, he didn’t even had any time to remember Satoshi or he thought so.

He kept reviewing the projects while trying to concentrate on them but it was impossible. Satoshi kept popping in his mind at most unexpected times. Those forget-me-nots were resting in a fairly big glass of water while he has to finish his work before leaving to find him again. But this time, he was sure that he won’t forget Satoshi no matter what. Somehow, this time he had that confidence. Not this time, he thought stubbornly. He kept thinking about him as he continued to work until Nino’s voice called him back to the reality.

“This part is wrong,” he said seriously.

“Which part?” Sho asked blinking with surprise while he tried to take papers back from Nino.

Nino heaved a long sigh. He honestly couldn’t say that he liked this new version of Sho. From the very first time, Sho had been a very respected senior and a very good friend for Nino. He had been working with him for nearly ten years now and he had been very good as a boss even though he was acting a bit stupid sometimes. He was honest, hardworking and very clever. However now, he was acting like a high school boy who is in love. “It’s not like you making little mistakes like this,” Nino said showing the calculation mistake to Sho. “I mean okay, apparently you are in love right now and I am sorry for keeping you from running after your mysterious prince but man, this is not like you. You are what? 36?” Nino didn’t actually wanted to be harsh on him but he also knew that if Sho wouldn’t focus his work right now, there will be problems.

Sho, on the other hand, seemed very surprised with his very own mistake. “Sorry!” he said with panic. “I will fix it now!”

“Okay, stop now,” Nino stopped him quickly. “Let’s make a deal,” he said sitting in front of him seriously. Sho looked at him puzzled. “If you finish last 3 days work, I will let you take a whole week as day-off. But I really need you to work on these properly,” he said sternly. “Oh god,” he groaned. “Look what have you done to me?! I am speaking like you now!” Nino grumbled.

Sho let out a heartful laugh to that. “Sorry for making you the voice of reason,” he said between his laughter. “Thank you, Nino.”

“Never mind,” Nino said dismissively. “Someone needs to be the voice of reason anyway,” he grumbled before he left Sho’s room.

Sho looked behind Nino, feeling very thankful for his understanding and sharp nature.

“How long are you planning to continue working like this?” he was taken to the reality by Nino’s voice again. Sho looked at the clock which is hanging on the wall. 22:10

“Wow,” he mumbled.

“Yeah wow, you haven’t stand up from your desk for a while already, you realize that?” Nino said with a raised eyebrow. “I didn’t know you wanted to meet your prince on the white horse so badly,” he added mockingly.

Sho felt a hotness creeping up to his face so he hurriedly lowered his head to the papers. “Not at all, I just wanted to finish these,” he mumbled.

Nino sighed. “Everyone has left so I am leaving too,” he said. “Don’t overwork yourself, I don’t want that vacation to turn out as a hospital visit.”

Sho laughed. “I will leave too as soon as I finish this.”

Nino nodded. “Well then, see you tomorrow?”

“I won’t leave without saying anything to you, so yes, see you tomorrow.” He said as Nino made his way to the door and left without saying anything more. Sho sighed. A long night was waiting for him.

When Nino finally reached his home it was already 01:30 am. After hanging out with his rare friends which he couldn’t refuse anymore, eating out for a while and returning his home; Nino honestly felt drained. Man, he thought. Socializing is tiring as hell. He directly threw himself to his comfortable sofa. The comfortable silence and the comfortable sofa was about to lull him into sleep when his door ringed. Groaning, he stood up from his place and went to open his door feeling very grumpy about it already. What now? He thought as he opened his door only to find Jun in front of it.

“Hey,” Nino greet him with a surprised look on his face. Jun smiled a little. “It’s rare to have you on my door like this, I mean, suddenly,” he mumbled as he let Jun enter his apartment.

“I was actually visiting Sho,” he said calmly.

“Oh, is Sho back from work? Wow, he is fast,” Nino mumbled while he led Jun into the living room.

“He is not,” Jun said suddenly with a deep frown on his face. “I called him an hour before and he didn’t answer so I came but he didn’t answer his door too so I thought maybe he is here…”

Nino shrugged. “He insisted on finish his papers so I left him at the office,” he said calmly. “Wanna drink something?” He asked casually, already preparing some beer for both of them.

“Is he alone?” Jun asked nervously.

“Yeah, why?” Nino frowned, Jun wasn’t someone who would panic easily. But Jun didn’t say anything as he rushed to the door.

“Sorry, Nino, thanks for letting me in,” he said hurriedly as he wore his shoes. Surprised, Nino rushed behind him and tugged his arm to stop him.

“Stop, stop, stop! What’s happening?” Jun opened his mouth but closed not being able to explain himself. Nino exhaled a deep breath and put on his shoes. “Okay, I am coming too then.”

“But-” Jun tried to protest but Nino cut him immediately.

“He is my friend too.” Nino said sternly.

Sighing, Jun gave up on arguing since this was more important than convincing Nino to stay at home. He led the way to his car, trying to prevent himself from panicking. It can’t be right..? He tried to inhale a deep breath.

Unlike other children, he had been educated as a wizard since he was a small child. He had been raised with the stories of The Witch who hated humans.

The Witch was the first one who had the magical blood in her from the very first time she had born. Her parents who feared from her powers left her alone in a forest which was famous for its deepness. Once you get inside the forest, no one could leave it. However, with her powers, the forest had become her friend as it protected The Witch and provided her a lonely kingdom. When The Witch has grown older, also her powers grown stronger she started to yearn for another life form. She left the forest, find other humans like herself. The thought of rejection, never crossed her mind as she met other humans only to be called as a monster.

The Witch, who gave many gifts to humans, couldn’t stand the rejection from her own kind, returned to the forest. And she decided to create a monster who is like herself… But she was a human too no matter what; which she hated with all her might, so she refused to create another human being like herself. She made the monster without the flaws of humans. The monster which had an eternal lifespan was stronger and faster than any other human being. However it’s said that it lacked everything humanly. It was a monster who created from the hatred; it had a created heart with no human feelings inside it.

Of course, her monster was quite famous. Even after The Witch had left this world, it continued to live, inheriting her hatred towards the humanity. Or that was how it's supposed to be... He never thought there will be one day that he will meet the monster. Jun had never thought he would find a vulnerable monster in front of him. He gulped when he remembered the time he saw the lonely figure of the monster in front of the forget-me-nots.

He never thought that the monster would ask him to kill him.

But one thing was certain, The Witch had her garden cursed for humans. It was one of the most dangerous places to go since her magic continued to live even after ages of her death. One shall enter this garden, will face the death. He remembered those words way too clearly. It was his first lesson as a wizard. A must-not-forget.

Jun’s eyes widened as he turned the corner. The building which had Sho’s office in it was wrapped in flames and he could see the fire-fighters trying to keep people away from the building.

“What’s this?” He heard Nino whispering in horror, faintly.

No way, no way, no way, he thought leaving the car as soon as he stopped. This can’t be happening! “SHO!” He shouted and ran towards the building only to be stopped by one of the fire-fighters.

“Sir, I am sorry, I can’t let you pass!” The firefighter said. He could barely hear Nino trying to make his way hysterically too.

“Let me pass! My friend is inside!” Jun shouted.

“I am sorry sir, even we can’t get close to fires!”

“Let me-” Jun couldn’t finish his words as the fifth floor exploded. The fifth floor, Jun thought indistinctly. “SHO!” Jun screamed at the top of his lungs as his voice disappeared into the noise of the explosion.

A/N: My deepest apologies for the delay... again. Yeah, really sorry. After many technical issues this time I had lots of health problems and also funeral things. So sorry for the delay T-T I will be quick to upload next one! Sorry for the cliffhanger!!
