“Before I regret…” The boy leaned close to his ear. His deep voice was even more oppressing than the murky black water around them. “Kill me.”
“Why?”
“Don’t you want to destroy me?” He found that odd. If it had been him, he would have destroyed the second personality without hesitation. So that he would never threaten his position again.
Why was he hesitating? He even asked him, “Why?”
“Ha.” Youyou suddenly smiled. His calm expression was as bright and dazzling as the morning sun against his snow-white shirt. “You know what? If I wanted to destroy you, I’d have done it back then, for I had the power. But I couldn’t, because I’m not like you. I’m the first personality. I won’t perish, but you will.”
“…”
“You, are the other me, and I, the other you. This life was originally made up of us as equals. But, all these years, I’ve occupied this body…” The boy took a deep breath and put a hand to his forehead as his head throbbed. “I’m sorry. All these years, I’ve indulged fully in Mommy’s love and received all their love. I’ve only given you that sense of hatred, the desire to destroy…”
The dark memories from our youth had eventually brewed a second personality. At that time, his personality had just been established, and Youyou wanted to suppress him.
He didn’t know that he was a split personality, but, in his subconscious space, he could clearly see another personality.
Sometimes, it was in a dream. Sometimes, in real life.
He was worried that the gradual hatching of the second personality would eventually outlaw him and even harm his family. It had never even occurred to him that the second personality, also part of the composition of his life, also craved warmth. He had always defined this personality as evil, so he had always suppressed it.
No matter how much that personality resisted, Youyou did not give him a chance to take possession of his body. Therefore, for eight years, all happiness and joy had nothing to do with him. He dominated all the good things, but left the dark and the pain to the other personality.
And the second personality was thus born of pain and depression. From beginning to end, he lived in a world of depression.
He wanted to experience light, and what happiness was. Therefore, in the process of Alice hypnotizing Youyou, while the first personality was hypnotized, the second finally broke through the cage and sealed the first personality.
However, at that time, the boy did not resist. Instead, he chose to sleep. He wanted the second personality to be free, even if he could never return to Yun Shishi.
The other Youyou’s pupils contracted violently, and the darkness in his pupils intensified.
“You…”
“I want you to experience what it’s like to be family, too. That’s why I was willing to go to sleep. I just want to pass on the warmth that should have been yours.” The boy in the white shirt suddenly hugged him tightly, frowning with guilt. “I’m sorry for all the years that have weighed you down and left you alone and lonely, living in such a cold corner. I’ve always thought of you as evil and dark, and that’s why I as afraid you’d conquer and replace me completely. But I’ve also forgotten that you’re part of this life-form, and you have a right to sense joy, anger, and sorrow, not just hatred. So why should I destroy you?”
