《Languor || Zhong Chenle》Fit In
Advertisement
The reddish hue on top of the skyline vanished as the sun ran out of life. The chirping birds are no more. The air masked with a slight ring in the ear because of the silence. The tip of my nose is tickled by the calming musky aroma of the birch wood desk i'm sitting on.
"Aah!" a loud scream by the window tore the ambience.
I put my phone down and look outside the window Jeno was dangling on earlier this day. My head hanging low on the window frame.
Chenle is standing there. A speck of light reflected by something in front of him.
An eye.
A man is laying there. Lifeless. Chenle's katana standing proudly right in the center of the man's ribcage. Blood splurging out. The man's body vibrates as it slowly silenced by the ticking clock.
Chenle's body is being washed by the light that sprayed from the lamp, smiling smugly as soon as he sees me. Dressing in droplets of crimson liquid.
Hrvy appears and throws a towel to the boy with blood splattered all over. Catched mid air by the boy that is still standing in his place.
"Oh, Xiao Yue, sorry, there is a burglar!" Hrvy shouted when he noticed i was looking at them.
Chenle corrected.
"Right."
Chenle wipes the blood off him.
"Don't worry, this happens all the time, also, take a shower, i'll bring your dress," Hrvy said, shouting a little.
I washed off all the musky smell from the study room awhile ago.
Now i'm sitting on a stool while Haechan put make up on me. Not surprisingly doing well since i noticed he always wear some everyday. A little bit of sparkle on his eyes and lightly tinted lips.
"Why aren't you guys hire some more servant, Hrvy looks really busy," i asked Haechan.

"We did, they either quit or dead already."
"Why?"
"Let's be real, no one would like to see what we always do," Haechan explained while brushing something on my cheeks.
"True."
Haechan put on a lot of stuff on my face. Some looks familiar. The girls in my school used to squeal after the photos of these make up products.
"Done yet, we have to put her into the dress," Hrvy said, again, carrying a big box on his arms.
"Done," Haechan said.
I put on the dress inside the bathroom. My shoulder blades exposed. No strap to secure the top. Surprisingly snug to my torso.
The dress is dark blue. Quite long, slightly grazing the floor. The top framed my torso with embroidery that connects it to the tulle bottom part. Heavier than any garments i wore in my life.
Space themed jewelries stuck on my body. Giving a bling to a certain angle.
I complete my look and put on a slightly elevated shoes before walking out to the front door, hand in hand with Hrvy to support myself walking in this heavy dress.
I look outside to see Chenle wearing a suit matching the theme of my dress.

Unliving
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon, November 2021] For the longest time, Aideen Fiachna had only one prescient wish; to be the daughter her parents could take pride in. The idea was a tall order, especially as her father stood at the head of the Templar order, and her grandfather as the Pope. However, she endeavored to try nonetheless. Yet fate had a different path in store for her. For all her efforts, all her best laid plans, were but the broken off crumbs of 'one day'. That day, she was brutally slain by a vile, accursed undead being. Though, not even restful eternity awaited her in death. She awakened inside a coffin. Her coffin. During her own funeral wake. Discovering, to her horror, that she had risen. Not somehow resurrected, no, but back in the form of that most hated of beings--the curse of undeath. What will fate deal her next?
