A Kind Goblin’s Bird - Chapter 96

This dream is so real. But it felt better than that.

Sa Heon-yeongs cheeks were thin. It was good though. It felt like her fingertips would melt more than touching any silk. Will she be able to dream this dream again? No, it will probably be difficult. So, for her..

Im so sorry. You saved me.

?

I think I should die.

At that moment, Sa Heon-yeongs arms grabbed Young-youngs forearms with strong force.

What do you mean?!

He growled. No, he screamed. His face, which had turned white, seemed to stop breathing at any moment. Young-young was more concerned about his face being too white than her arm hurting, so she patted his cheek with her hand.

Im sorry.

Young-ah!

But it is very difficult for me to live without Lord Heonyeong.

It was as if time had stopped around Sa Heon-yeong. All of him stopped at once. Young-young smiled softly and continued to caress Sa Heon-youngs cheek.

I cant live. Mother persuaded me not to die until I took revenge on the Song family, but anyway, my family is already ruined, so I think I can die now.

Sa Heon-yeong shook his head. He said, unable to breathe properly, like a man whose heart had been cut out.

Did, didnt I come here?

This is a dream.

Young-young shook her head.

A dream is just a dream. When she opens her eyes, he wont be there. Shes all right with everything. She thinks she could starve for ten days instead of four. If only she could see him one more time, she could.

But now its all wrong.

Court Lady Yoon said that. A deposed queen will never see the king again.

At that moment, Sa Heon-young exploded.

Well never see each other again, well never see each other again, why? !

Sa Heon-yeong shouted like he was vomiting his blood.

Why did you do that, why, why!

He wouldnt be able to even touch her because he feared something would go wrong. Why did you do that? he cried.

Young-young looked up at Sa Heon-yeong, shaking wildly. Slowly her gaze glided away. It was because Sa Heon-yeong was sliding on the doorframe.

He knelt down on his knees and buried his face in Young-youngs chest. Feeling her chest soaking wet, Young-young looked down at him blankly. He was crying out loud like a child. Seeing him collapsing in sorrow and fear, Young-young slowly reached out and embraced his head. He wept in Yeong-youngs arms.

All you had to do was to sing that song over and over again. What if Im a goblin? If I am . If I have you.

What does it mean, my child? Of course, I raised Heon-yeong as my son, but thats because of my weak heart, not because he really is my child. Ha, haha, definitely not. Of course.

The Empresss voice was still vivid in Young-youngs ears. It was that voice. Those words touched something in Young-young forever. She didnt know she could be so stubborn and tough. But Young-young could never sing as long as she heard those words.

However, Young-young had no intention of telling Sa Heon-yeong about this through her mouth, so she firmly closed her mouth.

Sa Heon-young is crying. Suddenly, Young-Young thought about what the current Sa Heon-Young would be doing. Is he crying too? Will he be very upset? Does he think so too?

Im sorry.

Young-young hugged Sa Heon-yeongs head tightly and apologized.

Im sorry for hurting you. I cant sing at that moment, Im really sorry. And Im sorry that you saved me and I have to die. If I died and made you cry again, Im sorry too. Im sorry for everything. Everything.

Sa Heon-young broke down crying sadly. Young-young hugged him and whispered repeatedly that she was sorry.

After crying for a long time, he asked Young-young to never leave again, never to go anywhere, and repeatedly asked for a promise. Young-young happily promised. Sa Heon-yeong in her dream felt like a slightly different person from the one she knew, but in the end, it was still that Sa Heon-yeong.

He stumbled as he hugged Young-young. Then he slipped again and fell to the floor, holding Young-young.

Lord Heon-young! Are you okay?

When Young-Young asked, Sa Heon-Young shook his head.

Im afraid to death.

His voice was trembling.

Lord Heon-young?

I wonder if this is all a dream, and when I wake up, wife will still be buried in the valley I am afraid.

This is a dream.

Young-young just bit her mouth. If she told him it was really a dream, Sa Heon-yeong seemed like he would die as he was. She didnt want to see Sa Heon-yeong dying even in her dreams.

Even with a lie, she couldnt say it wasnt a dream, and Young-young just patted Sa Heon-yeongs thick shoulder.

Sa Heon-young hugged Young-young tightly. Oh, my God. He murmured. You are in my arms. He continued to dig into her arms even as he embraced Young-young. You are here, he cried again

He didnt get up for a long time. He held her in his trembling arms and just cried. Young-young thought of Sa Heon-yeong outside her dream while holding him. When she thought he was really crying in reality, she became worried.

She wished he hadnt forgotten her , but he shouldnt have cried like this.

Young-young ruffled Sa Heon-yeongs hair and opened her mouth little by little.

She started singing. It was the best she had. She hoped that it would comfort him even a little in her dreams. She doesnt know what the song was talking about, but she thought it could comfort him at this moment.

Young-youngs beautiful voice flowed through Sa Heon-yeongs ears. Unlike the usual appeals for something, Young-youngs song today was just a whisper.

In a room where there was no moonlight, the two of them hugged each other, one singing and the other listening to the song. The song continued. Until Sa Heon-yeong could get up, Young-young did not stop singing.
