《Languor || Zhong Chenle》Vulnerable

"You freak!" She screamed.

I chuckle at her reaction.

She sighs and continues browsing through the roof.

Another one down. Its definetly Haechan. He shot one right on the chest. I hum while i get an idea. I move my hand to pull the hair of the girl in front of me.

"Ah, Chenle why did you pull my hair?" She said.

"You're the boss," she said in defeat.

i responded.

"Why?" She asked.

"The other one escaped, i don't know who sent them," Haechan said while walking up to me.

i said while pushing the wheelchair.

"Who do you think sent them?" The girl asked me.

She doesn't respond with anything.

"i'll use my hands to move the wheelchair," Xiao Yue said to Chenle.

Chenle's eyes falls to hers strangely, something from his stare is bothering Xiao Yue but she can't prove anything from a mere glance.

She then head into her room. Not a single word to Chenle.

Nothing.

The two of them part ways. Mindful of their own problems.

Chenle walks inside the living room. Grabbing his phone to set the room to the temperature he prefers. He inhales the colder air.

His chest hurts.

Another wave of regrets washes over Chenle as a result of trying to remember what he said to Xiao Yue. While his mind is stuffed with it, there is an underlying thought of why is he acting like this.

The Chenle he knows wouldn't even bother to think about what he said.

"Oh, here we have a boy with his broken heart," Jaemin said, strutting in hand in hand with Jeno.

They walk closer to the overthrown boy and practically jump on to the sofa.

"What happened while i was on a date with Jeno?" Jaemin asked, earning a questioning look from Jeno.

Just that sentence alone left the boys's jaws on the floor. Jeno is shocked, more so Jaemin. Jaemin was joking about how Chenle looked like a boy who just got heartbroken but seeing how Chenle said that shocked him to the core.

"A-are you actually heartbroken?" Jeno said, trying his best to sound as usual.

Jeno and Jaemin is confused with the sudden change of Chenle's behaviour yet none of them dare to tease him like they always do. No matter how close they are with Chenle, there is no doubt that they are scared of him.

Chenle said while clenching his fists together.

The two boys is looking at each other, bewildered.

The silence was eating them whole until Jaemin's brain clicked and forces him to squeeze out some words.

"What happened with-"

Chenle said with a weak voice, his head leaned back to the sofa.

Seeing how vulnerable the boy is, Jeno and Jaemin's bewildered complexion soften.

"Don't ask, we are here for you," Jaemin spoke with a softer tone.

Chenle then begins his story about how he drew a line between him and the girl because he was feeling weird inside. Stopping a few times in between because of how vulnerable he feels by telling what happened but Jaemin and Jeno encourage him to continue each time.

Chenle finished.

"Oh my god!" Jaemin and Jeno said at the same time.

A few seconds was enough for the two of them to know that they thought of the same thing by looking into each other's eyes.

Chenle said, brushing his hair back from his stressed face.

"Are you in love?" Asked Jaemin, his hands covering his shocked parting lips.

I move my way to my room. The half openned door makes my way inside easier.

I find Hrvy inside, carrying a basket of dirty clothes.

"Hey, Xiao Yue," Hrvy said while looking behind me, "Where is Chenle?"

"I don't know."

Hrvy nods a few times. I hop from the wheelchair to the bed, giving full attention to my ankle.

I suddenly feel exhausted.

I was only trying to get into Chenle's good side at the first place. Seeing how my life threats is in a plateau phase, i didn't feel the need to do further. I am now Chenle's strategist yet there is no guarantee that he won't decapitate my head tomorrow.

Ah.

I grunt and slam my head to the pillow. My head spins like i was flushed down the drain. As pathetic as how i'm feeling. I close my eyes and just like that, i drift myself to sleep.

"Hey, its almost five, don't you feel hungry?"

I groan and open my eyes to see Hrvy shaking my arms. The light that pass through the window is blinding my sight when i slightly move aside.

"Come on, i'll help you," Hrvy said while dragging the wheelchair closer to me.

"I'll meet you at the living room," i said to the boy that is wearing a pair of gardening boots.

"Meet me at the kitchen instead."

I hop on one foot as i inch closer to the bathroom to take a shower. The droplets of freezing water brought me back to my senses.

I put on a grapefruit perfume that Haechan gave me before moving with my wheelchair out to the kitchen with my new clothes on.

"Hrvy," i called when i stopped right in front of the kitchen.

"Oh, hey, wait," Hrvy responds.

I wait as Hrvy fumble through a cupboard. He hums when he found a crutch and hand it out to me.

"Its easier to move with that, beside the wheelchair is too big for the garden beddings."

"Garden?" I asked.

Hrvy points out to the door beside the ovens that leads into the garden outside. A series of vegetables is growing there. I wince at the thought of how many corpses are under the soil.
