AMETHYST: Drucless Lover
AKD - 26

Both irises of Rean's eyes turned black. Vita was surprised to see the sudden change. Moreover, two horns emerged sticking out of his head.

Vita swallowed the saliva out of fear.

Rean closed his eyes tightly. Slowly the sky turned dark. The girl looked around.

"Rean, I'm scared. Already, Rean."

Both of the men's eyes turned normal. His horns also disappeared behind his white hair.

"You scared?" Ask Rean.

Vita nodded slowly. "But you're not gonna hurt me, are you?"

"Of course, no."

Silent.

Vita saw the movement of the sun so clearly in her eyes. "The sun is going to set? I can see the process."

Rean nodded. "Time runs fast in a drucless world, different from the human world."

"Did you miss your world?" Ask Vita. Rean nodded. "I'm more comfortable living in a human world full of fun and wonder."

Vita laughed at her boyfriend's innocent answer. "If we're together, then you'll be living with me in the human world."

"Yes, I think so."

Vita smiled as she hugged Rean's arm. "I'm glad someone's always with me, when omma's gone. Nothing can replace omma until you come and accompany me."

"Don't say that. Your mom and dad care about you too. They just have a little free time." Rean tried to calm Vita's mind.

"When they're up for what? What are they after? What do they expect?" Ask Vita.

To that end, Rean had no answer. However, he said, "They want you to be happy in their own way. Isn't your dad working to make your 'magic card' useful? Your father built a big house for you. Your father bought a vehicle for you so there's no need to walk. Your father also hired servants to make you delicious dishes."

Vita digests Rean's words and replies, "You're right, but isn't everything enough? My dad doesn't even have time for himself. The time to sleep seems to be only a moment."

"If your dad is happy to do it, you just have to support him. Your father always looks out for you. I can see it."

Vita took a long breath. "Talk like a lawyer. You're my papa's lawyer, aren't you?"

Rean laughing. "I'm just trying to understand in anyone's position."

"If you were me, what would you do?" Ask Vita curiously.

"I will enjoy my day well, give thanks, and spread a cheerful smile on everyone."

Vita laughing. "Even though you look like a manly man, your words are as sweet and innocent as a child."

Vita was speechless with both cheeks flushed. "That's. You're a man. Don't you like being called a man?"

Rean chuckles. "No, I'm fine. What do you want to call me."

Vita looked to her left. The place across there looks dark and scary.

Vita patted her boyfriend's arm. "Rean, what is the real world of drucless?"

Rean looked at the girl. He's nodding. "Yes, it's night."

"That's scary. Why is it still daytime here?"

"At the border there is only morning and noon, while in the drucless world there is only day, afternoon, and night."

Vita squinted her eyes. He saw that there were black shadows moving in the air across there.

"Is there a ghost in the drucless world?" Ask Vita again.

"No ghosts, why? Aren't you afraid of ghosts?" Asked Rean who was holding back a laugh.

"Emm, what is it?" Vita pointed at the shadows floating in the air.

Rean pulled Vita's hand to stop pointing at her. "That shadow is always wandering the nights in the drucless world there. They were like something that had no body. They are not drucless, not ghosts, let alone humans. They're their own kind."

Rean's words sounded ambiguous to Vita. "It's terrible."

"Then we go home." Rean stood on the tree.

"It's safe here. I'm still happy to be here." Vita swung her two legs hanging freely on the branch.

"You want to stay in a tree like this?" Grunts Rean.

"Loof." Vita stretched out both her hands.

Rean rolled his eyeballs then lifted Vita's body and patted the girl's buttocks.

"Big baby!"

They disappeared in an instant and came out of the closet.

"Oh." Vita had to fight first with the clothes in the closet to get out of there. He could finally get out. His gaze was fixed on the wall clock in the room.

"It's 4pm? I think we were there a long time ago. Is it as fast as time travel in the drucless world? It's worth your age" Vita told Rean.

Hearing Vita's ridicule, Rean simply rolled his eyeballs.
