Secrets and Dreams: Kyoshiro's Secret has Revealed

While I was sitting near the fire host to keep myself warm, I saw someone walking inside the living room bringing a hot water and a cup of hot milk.

“Oh you’re awake, just in time for your hot milk” says the man with long black clothes.

He seems like a butler, I thought. The men wear a short tie and white gloves. “How are you feeling, I’m sure you didn’t have a wound right”

“Uhm…I am okay, I guess” when I stand up, I got a little bit dizzy.

“Maybe not, here drink this.” He gave me this hot milk to warm myself. It was good and refreshing. He could be someone’s butler. I asked where he put Kyoshiro.

“Young master is upstairs sleeping”

Did he say “young master”?

“Uhm…can you tell me where am I”

“The forest near the playground, you’ve already come here three times you know…and this is your fourth time” he explained.

He has got to be kidding me.

Kyoshiro is his master, so that means…all along that day when he took good care of me. He was the one. No freaking way.

“What’s wrong?”

“N-nothing…uhm…can I use your bathroom.” I need to calm myself, I know it may be shocking but I need to figure out something.

“It’s upstairs, turn left and you can see the third door”

“Thank you”

I rush through in going to the bathroom. And the place is so scary, especially at night, they only have little light. I know this place is old but they could repair a little of this place.

           When I went inside the bathroom, I turn the faucet on. And I wash my face just to think of something. Kyoshiro Shirakawa, a student from Mitsuki High School, lives in this haunted house. I knew it. I don’t think Kyoshiro is hiding something, right.

Everything is going to be okay. Nothing is mysterious or any suspicious here. Just a normal living; would I tell this to Sally?

           I open the door to go back and suddenly Kyoshiro was standing there feeling gloomy. I don’t know what’s going on but I have to say something to keep the atmosphere alive.

“Hey Kyoshiro, I guess you are okay; I know everything now so I am sorry for running away and thank you for taking care of me…that’s twice already.”

I laugh a little. But he didn’t saying anything. He just stand there and saying this words to me.

“I’m sorry”

He moved forward like he wants to go inside. Both of his hands were touch on the wall, with me around it. I don’t what’s wrong with him. My heart starts to beat fast. His face went close to mine. I tried to call him out but I don’t he is listening. Now our face is getting close; I need to do something, some girls usually kicked the boys but I am not that type of person who just done something that is not wrong.

“Kyoshiro, hey wake up…your face is getting close to mine you know”

Now this is scares me.

“Yuuko, all this time I have been looking for you and finally I found you”

Those words they were the same as the guy in my dream said. Not only the voice but the face, the hair and the eyes; is he the one that I saw in my dream.

What are you Kyoshiro? I thought. All of a sudden, his lips touch mine which is known the word “kissing.” I was surprise; I don’t know what to do. My mind was freeze out; I couldn’t say why did he do this. But something else feels me inside, like my blood is rushing on. I couldn’t even breathe a little.

           When he let go, my head starts to feel awkward again and no voice I heard like last time. Was it because the mystery in my dream, and the one it solve was Kyoshiro. But we just met like two days ago. What is it then?

I was unconscious, but how…Kyoshiro did something to me. If he did it, what is he then? This is not what humans do.

Another voice came to my head, like someone is apologizing to me. It could be my mother because when the day she got ill she apologizes for not bringing something good for me. It wasn’t true; she did bring something good for me, which is love.

Sometimes I could think it was my father; I have heard my father’s voice once in my other dream. I was happy to hear his voice for so long, like I couldn’t believe it.

But sometime I could think it was Kyoshiro. Why would I think of it? Why was in my dream every day? What does he want front from me? Why is he looking for me?

           I was finally able to wake up, and this time I stayed on the same room. My mind was blurry but I could still remember what happen last night. I never think that Kyoshiro and I kissed but he was stealing something, I could feel by my own blood. Even that butler, he is also suspicious. I have thought that I should get out of here; but what if he tries to kill me.

I couldn’t hear anything. It could be they went out somewhere just to leave me; or they are just preparing something.

I open the door slowly so they couldn’t hear anything. I went out silently with my feet tip toeing. But I got the feeling I was caught.

“I knew you will woke up, Yuuko”

When I turn, I knew it was Kyoshiro. I was a little bit petrified. I knew he wants to say something to me but I don’t have time to hear it. So I had to run away from him. And I remember where I had to go.

When I about to open the door, he instantly shuts. I was shocked of how he gets down here. Like he gets here like he pass somewhere that has a secret door.

“Yuuko, please listen to me.”

I never want to listen anything from him. I don’t know what he is trying to do and I don’t want to find out.

           I run again, I don’t know where else I can as long I have to get out of this place. But he was just there again, how don’t know how do it but I know he isn’t human. I feel like my chest starts to burst. Is this the feeling that I am afraid of.

I got so tired now, I couldn’t keep up. For once, I knew he is at the back of me. Do I have to think that I should run again?

“Yuuko, please listen to me.” Kyoshiro said.

I was thinking that I should continue running but why am I not moving. My body is shaking all over. Like I have to listen to his talks but I never want to; I never want myself to get involve on something that’s why.

“I know you don’t want to hear me talking,  I just thought you to get to know me more; I am actually not human like you…I am different from everyone else here in this world…”

“What exactly are you Kyoshiro” I interrupted.

He has this face like he felt sorry or something, like he never meant to do something to me even though he never done to hurt me, not like last night.

“I…I am a vampire” he said.

I couldn’t believe what he said. The person in my dream who’ve I never met, waited for me in this place is a vampire.

“I am truly sorry for what I did to you last night; I knew you will run away but I couldn’t let you. I don’t want to leave you again.”

“What do you want from me?”

“I can’t tell you…but I will tell you unless you stay here with me for five months”

“I am sorry I can’t do that”

I don’t want to stay here anymore. I have to go home and stay at peace. I turn around and start running but he stopped me, holding his own hand on my wrist.

“Let go of me, Kyoshiro”

Again, he wasn’t listening to me. I was pushed to stick myself to the wall; both of his hands were on my shoulder; he holds it on grip so I can’t run away again.

“Kyoshiro wait…you can’t do this…please, let go of me.”

He wouldn’t let go; he just continue holding on me. My blood flows through my chest and my mind started to think like I know what he is trying to do. Slowly, he opens his mouth and I could see his fangs. I was scared; I could think that I would turn one like him. I never want that.

His fangs touch my neck and directly he presses it in. I could feel my blood being sucked in by his teeth and the blood flow down to his lips. Will I become like him, that’s what I thought.

“Kyoshiro, stop it…let go of me.” I pushed him away. He looks different; he is not the Kyoshiro I met before. His eyes change aqua blue to dark black and my blood sticking to his teeth. I wouldn’t believe to see it. Is this the real Kyoshiro I know?

           For few seconds his eye color change to normal. And his expression was hard to explain something. I couldn’t move; I thought this is my chance to escape but when I saw Kyoshiro, I felt like I want to help. I know he never meant to hurt me.

“Kyoshiro…are you okay” my voice was cracked, I couldn’t say it properly.

“I understand now…I’m sorry I scared you like that; I know you will be afraid of me forever…you can just go home and forget about this”

It’s like I want to say sorry; if I could have listen to him, nothing could this happen.

“Kyoshiro… I”

“What are you waiting for, you said you don’t want to stay here…you’re afraid of me; people like you are scared of me” he interrupted.

I feel like I was a bad guy than he is.

“I’m sorry”

He gave me this confusing look.

“Why are you apologizing, I was the one who hurt you”

“I know, but there is a reason for me to apologize…I shouldn’t have put down on you; the reason I don’t want to listen because I don't want myself to get involve on something that can hurt me; but if there is a reason why you want me, I guess I have to.”

I can tell that he his hurt and I need to help him. I hope I can get use to stay here for five months.

“Yuuko, I am so sorry…I promise I will never get you involve on something that will hurt you…I will always protect you”

I guess that makes me happy a little. I am glad that Kyoshiro is back to normal.
