Ep-4
"Mourning is just the price we pay for having the courage to love others"
Continuation of the Flashback
Emris
Why will she do this?
Emris
*brushes against the scratches on his face*
Emris's mother
You want to go where?!
Emris
My.... friend....has a party and she invited me
Emris's mother
You went behind my back to buy the flowers, you think I didn't notice?
Emris's mother
The happy birthday messages with little "❤️" to that girl, you think I am that clueless?
Emris
You went through my phone?!
Emris's mother
*slaps him*
Emris's mother
*continues to slap and scratch his face*
Emris
(I want to go home.....)
Emris's mother
You are just as useless as your father
Emris's mother
I try my best to earn enough money to send you to college and this is the shit you try to pull? You want to ruin that girl's life while ruining yours also?!
Emris's mother
You are?! NOW?!
Emris's mother
*drags him by the collar*
Emris
What...do you mean....?
Emris's mother
Don't show me that fake innocence
Emris's mother
Get out of my house! Since you hate the comfy life I am giving you and are acting up after all
Emris
*folding his hands* No! I am sorry
Emris
I wouldn't do anything you don't allow me to! I swear!
Emris's mother
*smirks* You aren't allowed to go out of the house except for college
Emris's mother
Now get out of my sight! You are such an eyesore
Emris
*washes his face in front of the mirror*
Emris
These scratches.... I hope they don't scar
Emris
But now I won't be able to get to her party and my mother has also confiscated my phone
Emris
*sits down on the floor as tears begin to drop down his cheeks*
Emris
What's the use of crying when there is no there to wipe these tears except me? *mocks himself*
The present time, in the flashback:
Reize
How could you miss my birthday yesterday! I was waiting for you the most
Emris
Rei, did you like the sunflowers I gave you yesterday?
Reize
We are going over that again now? I liked them, happy?!
Emris
Do you still have them in your house?
Reize
Of course, I do what's the ma-
Reize
(Wait a sec, don't tell me!)
Emris
Are the sunflowers in good condition? I just want to know when to give you another bouquet
Reize
Yes, they are. They are facing towards the sun, maybe they are facing towards you 😄
Emris
(I gave you Hyacinths, not sunflowers....and you are lying to me? Why? Even a simple no would have made me happy.... I don't even need an explanation)
Emris
I have got work now, bye
Reize
*cuts the call* Why did he even call? And he didn't even say why he was absent yesterday
Reize
Why am I even with this man! It's such hassle sometimes
Reize
Did you throw off all the gifts? You shouldn't have thrown off his!
Maid: "His?" But you told me to-
Reize
Ahh...never mind. You know the guy I have been dating since a year? Don't throw away anything he brings for me
Maid: (So she is finally falling in love again?) Ok, miss
Reize
But I feel uneasy about the whole ordeal
Reize
It feels like unnecessary drama in my life, I should clear it up with him
Emris
*picks up the call* I am actually at work now, can we talk later?
Reize
Emris, do you, perhaps.... think that I threw off your gift?
Emris
*gulps* Huh? Why will I?
Emris
I know my girl will never *speaks warmly*
Reize
(I was just overthinking it, of course he doesn't know a thing. His dumbness comes handy many times)
Emris
Well it's better this way...it's better than accepting the possibility of her not being in love with me any longer
Reize
Dina, I am taking off my car for a drive around the neighborhood
Reize
Don't contact me unless the Gallery's on fire or something
Assistant Dina
You are going NOW?! With hardly an hour for the event to start?
Reize
How can it start without the man himself?
Reize
*smirks* He needs to be here, he can scream at me all he wants
Reize
But if I let him go now, he would merge with the darkness again
Reize
And I won't allow the light of my life to suffer alone in darkness again
Assistant Dina
(Sometimes her craziness is actually endearing)
