Blank Staring 소설 & 이야기

Everyone would be asked to retire to their rooms until daybreak by then. Since the art reveals has taken up to three hours of the time so far, I have an hour and some minutes to spend with Blank. The question is: can I survive it? I mean, he is THE BLANK PATRIARC. “Oh, yes…” I chuckle in an awkward manner. “I’ve been looking forward to that, actually, to know each layers of Nectar, including the ones she doesn’t even know.” “Ah…” I sit down again. My response could have been ‘and I want to know what Blank actually looks like’ but I didn’t say it. Still, the fact that the man’s facials are familiar haunts me.

I watched. I categorized them quickly. There were the "Guests." The rich ones drying out from cocaine binges or hiding from scandals. A tech CEO was pacing, yelling into a phone that wasn't there. An heiress with smudged mascara was crying softly into a silk handkerchief she had somehow smuggled in. And then, there were the others. The Blanks. Three people sat by the window. A man and two women. They weren't old, but they looked ancient. They wore the same blue scrubs. They sat perfectly still, hands folded in their laps, staring at the mountains with eyes that saw nothing.

I was my sister now. He dragged the body to the kitchen. Water ran. A suitcase zipper opened. I kept my eyes on the wall. Counted cracks. Seven up. Three across. The water stopped. Footsteps came back. Then he turned off the lights. Darkness. My real eyes screamed for light, but the white lenses blocked everything. I breathed slow. In. Out. A phone flashlight clicked on. Beam straight into my eyes. I didn't blink. Ten seconds. Twenty. My eyes burned behind the plastic, but my face stayed empty. Bored. *Blind.*

Unblinking. “Step forward.”

"Who told you to display a fake score report?" The technician shook his head frantically. "This is the live result pulled directly from the official system!" Lydia refused to believe him and checked on her own phone. Her face became paler by the second. "How could this be?" My father seemed to remember something. He pointed at me and roared, "What exactly did you do in the testing center?" I told him the truth. "I turned in a blank exam. So what?" Daphne stared at me in disbelief, panic plain on her face. "How could you turn in a blank exam?"

" I try to concentrate and see a Blaze figure in my head. I try to find out what Blaze sees right now...where his whereabouts...and what is how condition. I closed my eyes and concentrate harder...what I See .. is the same as what Blaze see .... And Blaze is seeing.. 'What the F.....!'

Their respective groups are just quietly and anxiously watching the silent battle between the two intimidating figures. Ace was the one to blink first but before he looked away he saw the very subtle smirk of Blaze, making him so triggered but cannot do anything about it. He cleared his throat before he stared at Blaze again whose expression hadn't changed at all while Blaze is still staring at him with the same calmness.

And if I am not mistaken, did he just blush or something? He is still looking away, like there is something he is looking at and he is interested in it. But he is just looking at the rode obviously trying to avoid my eyes.His long beautiful eyelashes flex as he look at an opposite direction. The color of his eyes also brighten. It also highlighted the angle of his sharp jaws, and the pinkish color of his cheeks. His rep lips are looking so sweet- NO! What the freak Amira, stop! I slightly shook my head as I try to remove my worldly desires. Damn! Stop fantasizing!

-Skylar- Suddenly, the pain stopped and everything around me looked completely different. Not in the sense that I was in a new environment, the way I was seeing everything was different. It was like I had a new pair of eyes; everything was much sharper. My nose filled with the most beautiful scent, cinnamon, my nose followed the scent, landing on Aspen. I looked at him, only to see him looking at me with complete and utter shock. I tried to get out some words, wanting to ask what was wrong, but nothing came out apart from a howl. Why was I howling?

My vision is blurred as my body falls in one of the men's arms. Then... Darkness! ******
