Black Wings 29. Wake Up
Ravi jolted, opening his eyes, sensing something about to invade him. He was startled to find that half of his body had been lifted, with both his legs dangling around Raymond's neck."What on earth, Raymond?" Ravi unconsciously yelled, moving away from Raymond as he realized their peculiar position."Ravi, it happened in the video," Raymond said, appearing guilty, but that wasn't the answer Ravi wanted to hear. He pulled the blanket to cover his naked body, still staring at Raymond with a myriad of questions about what had just occurred. Whatever Raymond had watched, it shouldn't have prompted him to do something like this suddenly without Ravi's consent."Can you just do that to me while I'm sleeping?"Raymond's expression immediately dropped, and in an instant, a clear liquid covered those differently colored eyes. Raymond quickly covered his face, speaking with a muffled voice. "Sorry, Ravi. Forgive me. I didn't know; I thought Ravi called me for that."Ravi rubbed the bridge of hi

Ravi tightened his clothes as the cold air enveloped him. He glanced at Raymond, who seemed unaffected by the chilly atmosphere, smiling suspiciously as they strolled past fragrant shops.Unable to dismiss the looming reality of their lives, even in this small town, Ravi recognized that his wallet would dwindle along with their expenses, with no income in sight. Reluctant to use his bank card, he feared Daniel discovering his presence here.They halted by a pedestrian traffic light. Ravi felt Raymond's hand gently tug at his shirt. "What's wrong?""Does Ravi feel pain again in Ravi's body?"Arching an eyebrow at the sudden question, Ravi shook his head in response. "No."Raymond appeared uneasy, standing in place. His grip on Ravi's shirt tightened, and Ravi gazed at him, curious about the turmoil Raymond was experiencing at that moment."About yesterday's slap?" Ravi instinctively touched his cheek, which stung suddenly as he recalled what happened the day before. His throat went dry,

They ate in silence, yet Ravi still pondered the lingering question he had thrown about Daniel earlier. Raymond remained silent, and for some reason, Ravi was convinced that what he had asked before held some truth.Ravi coughed softly as he felt someone's gaze as if drilling into his head from behind. He glanced back, but no one was staring in his direction there, yet it made him increasingly uneasy and uncomfortable. Perhaps it was just his fear of Daniel, who might be searching for him."Ravi, can we leave? People keep staring at you," Raymond said anxiously, his eyes scanning their surroundings since they sat down. It might be Raymond's first time being in public like this, hence his apprehension. Ravi tried to stay positive.Ravi let out a rough sigh, doubting anyone was paying attention to him. He realized he wasn't wearing flashy clothes that would draw attention or warrant comments from others. "Just ignore it; you're probably imagining things."Ravi gulped down the water and s

"Ravi, can I kiss Ravi now?" Instantly, Ravi's eyes widened as Raymond said it so casually, standing in front of him with their eyes locked."Did you just kill someone, Raymond? Don't you understand, people will come, the police will catch us."Raymond shook his head, his gaze dimming. "If Ravi kisses me, everything will be fine. I swear."Ravi opened his mouth only to close it again. How was that even possible? At a time like this, Raymond was saying that his hands had just stabbed someone, and Raymond didn't feel guilty at all. Ravi ruffled his hair with Raymond's strange request. "Raymond, this isn't the time for things like that.""Ravi, I'm telling the truth. Everything will be fine, someone told me about it before."Ravi felt the air around him heavy, he glanced at the lifeless body covered in blood, and no one knew when someone could walk in and find them. Then his gaze fell back onto Raymond's two different eyes staring at Ravi with an intensity that made Ravi tense under it. K
Black Wings 33. A Kiss
Ravi jerked awake from a severe coughing fit. He saw the thick, dark red blood staining his hands. His chest throbbed, even just to inhale the oxygen he needed."Ravi?" Raymond promptly handed a glass of water to him, which Ravi drank until it was empty. Not only that, Raymond reached for Ravi's blood-stained hand and wiped it clean with a blanket. Ravi grimaced to find out Raymond cleaned his blood using a blanket."How long have I been asleep?" Ravi asked, looking at the still-bright window."Three hours," Raymond quickly replied."What have you been doing?"Raymond avoided his gaze and didn't answer. This prompted Ravi to carefully ask again between his now steady breaths. "What have you been doing?""Watching you sleep, Ravi." Raymond finally answered timidly, while Ravi himself didn't know how to respond."Ravi, can we go see Daniel?" Raymond suddenly asked, his eyebrows almost merging into one."On what basis?" Ravi questioned."To treat you, only he can do it. It's getting worse

"Liam, I don't know how much to thank you," Ravi said, smiling at Liam standing before him.Ravi was clutching a paper bag full of bread and he was indeed very happy for this gift from Liam, he thought Raymond would also be happy with this later."It's not necessary, what else can I do to help you besides this?" Liam replied with a smile. Then he asked Ravi, "Do you live around here?""Not really, I'm not familiar with this area. But it's at the end of that street." Ravi didn't really want to disclose where he lived to Liam. "I live with Raymond.""Raymond?" he asked, surprised.Ravi nodded. Liam hadn't met Raymond yet, but he might have heard rumors. Clearly, no one knew about the stranger who suddenly appeared in Ravi's room. "He is a relative of our family. I and him happened to be close to him first.""I've heard about that. Maybe we could meet up later to talk about a lot of things?" Liam offered, patting Ravi's shoulder gently."Right. Tomorrow on your day off, do you have time?"

"Ravi?"Ravi opened the door to his small abode and was taken aback to find it enveloped in darkness. He returned home to be greeted by Raymond's whimpering. Ravi flicked on the light to be met with Raymond's haggard face, tears streaking down his cheeks."Ravi? I've been waiting for so long," Raymond said, his voice barely above a whisper. He stood stiffly before him, his hand hovering as if to reach out to Ravi. How long had Raymond been crying like this?Ravi didn't know how to respond to Raymond. He was too tired to react; his body ached with exhaustion. Yet, he couldn't dismiss Raymond like this; he had been waiting for hours."I'm sorry," was all Ravi could manage to say."Ravi, is there someone—""No, don't ask anything about that," Ravi quickly interjected, cutting off Raymond's words. Bringing it up again would only worsen Ravi's pounding headache. He gently pulled Raymond's arm, guiding him to sit on their bed. "Why are you crying like this?"Raymond didn't immediately answe
Black Wings 36. Meet Again
Ravi crouched behind the wall when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Daniel's fleeting shadow passing right in front of him. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, his growing panic drawing every inch of Ravi's body into a painful knot. He slumped to the ground as his heartbeat quickened, his neck feeling as if it were tightly bound by an invisible rope.The pain Ravi experienced never seemed to settle on any specific part of his body; he often felt it coursing through his entire being. Curling up in a secluded corner of the dimly lit street, he buried his face into his knees. With every throb of pain that gripped his body, Ravi could sense Daniel's resentment seething within him.Alone in the shadowy corner of the street once more, Ravi regretted not having Raymond with him. He thought nothing would happen when he just went to the nearby minimarket.Ravi suddenly choked, quickly spewing out something that violently erupted, once again spitting out the thick blood. He wiped the corne
