《PSYCHO [COMPLETED]》A secret place
Advertisement
Lay follows Mrs. Oh as she opens the main gate and strides out into the landscape beyond.
"Wow it's beautiful out here." Lay exclaims.
Mrs. Oh looks up at the sky and nods. Then she runs towards the forest on the edge of the estate.
Lay again follows her across the grounds and pass under a canopy of twisted branches.
"Where are we going, Grandma?" Lay asks.
"You'll see. It's not far now."
Soon, they come to a graveyard at the edge of the woods. Overhead, a lone raven peers down its beak at Lay.
Mrs. Oh clears her throat, "This is my family plot, Lay. Where my family and I are buried."
"Doesn't it creep you to think that your deadbody is buried here?"
"No, There's something.. oddly comforting about it."
"Oh?"
"It's bittersweet.. to know that my nephew and I are down there, under the earth, where no one can hurt us again. It oddly makes me feel.. safer."
Just then, Lay is startled by a ringing. It's Luhan calling.
On Call:
Hello? Are you okay? Why you didn't bother contacting us even once?
*whispers* Hello, I'm busy.
I can't hear you! Speak louder.
I can't speak loud now. I'll call back later.
What? You can't speak loud? Is that what you said? Hello? Hello?
Yes that's what I said. I'll call back.
What? Listen, if you hear me, I'm getting worried. I'm coming there now. Just.. wait for me. I'll be there in a few minutes.
Lay exhales as the line cuts, his pulse racing.
("Crap! I must unlock the door as soon as possible." Lay tells himself)
"What was that, Lay?" Mrs. Oh asks.
"This? It's a phone. Nice technology."
"Is this how phones look nowadays? Wow. But who called?"

"Uh.. a family member concerned for me."
"Which they should be."
Lay and Mrs. Oh walks slowly through the small cemetary, reading each headstone in turn. Lay comes to two headstones close together, with the names "Mr. Oh" & "Mrs. Oh."
"Is that your husband? His death of birth is ahead of the rest."
Mrs. Oh's expression goes suddenly cold and she turns to leave.
she warns, "That grave is empty."
"What?! Why!"
"None of your business! Just.. just leave me alone! It was a mistake to bring you out here.."
Mrs. Oh strides off into the woods, leaving Lay standing alone in the cemetary. Lay hurries to catch up with her.
"Grandma, wait, listen to me!"
Mrs. Oh hangs her head for a second, and a silence passes between them.
"It's very adorable when you call me Grandma, Lay. I was remembering my nephew through you. Take care of yourself, bye.."
Mrs. Oh's face appears gloomy but she strides up the steps of the house and without a second glance, snap shuts the door leaving Lay alone.
Lay runs up and starts knocking the door. But an inexorable force sends him flying backwards.. until he crashes hard on the steps, with no way back in.
As he gets to his feet, winds howl in a sudden gale and a storm breaks out!
Lay raises an arm to shield his eyes against the growinh storm..
..and everything goes black..

Disclaimer: Though the book has Xianxia tag there will be no chinese names in the novel because it would be quite idiotic of me to try and use chinese names without understanding what they mean or represent and for that you have my apologies.

Of course, everything with my own salt and pepper added to it. Hope you won't be veered off right here and will try a different take on the xianxia genre. I can assure you you won't be disappointed.
