Genre: Angst
Rated: T (may trigger unpleasant feelings/memories) DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO THIS TYPE OF MATERIAL.
A/N:This is just a short, like really short one shot I decided to write just because I needed to get this out of my system. I also wrote this during a writer's block so I apologize for the bad quality. Remember, none of this is real and is merely a figment of my imagination. Also, _ means your name.
Disclaimer: I do not own EXO's Baekhyun. He is also not my brother. This is just something I came up with in my spare time.

I plodded down the desolate sidewalk, my footsteps sounding like the hollow beating of a broken drum. The warm sunshine mocked me and I wondered how the light could shine through on a day like this. Staring down at the concrete underneath my feet, I cursed the driver who hit my brother's car.
I closed my eyes, aimlessly walking forwards. Suddenly, my feet made a different sound. There were no more hollow sounding drums. My feet crushed brittle, dead-sounding leaves. I opened my eyes and stopped walking. I was here.
On any other day, the high pitched creaking of the old swing set would have comforted me.
Everyday, right after the squeak of the rusty swings would come my brother's warm voice to smooth over the rough edges of my heart. Why? Why did I think this place would bring me comfort. He was gone now and this place had no meaning without him.
Yes, on any other day, the high pitched creaking of the old swing set would have comforted me. Today though, it only made me cringe with distaste.
"Hey _," he'd always say. "You look beautiful today. What is that new hairstyle called? The bird's nest?" Or something snarky like that. All of his teasing was always aimed towards me, his favorite little sister and although it was, I never took it to heart. Because he didn't say it with anger, hate, or resentment. It was his way of being affectionate. Besides, he only did it to make me smile. He only did everything to make me smile.
After the painful silence of a single moment, I realized I was staring hard at the empty swing my brother usually appeared in. Like staring at it would bring him back.
I scoffed and chided myself.
"Snap out of it _, he's not coming back."
I took a hesitant step before shaking my head and pushing forwards. Despite my persistence to get to the swings, my feet fought with me every forced step of the way.
Getting irritated, I hissed to myself, "He's not ever coming back, so get over it!"
The weight of my words finally hit me and I stopped in my tracks, the tears having finally found their way down my face.
My brother, Byun Baekhyun, my other half, my best friend… was never coming back.

Okay... so I know that was kind of depressing (and super short, I know, I'm sorry). For some it may not be, I guess it just depends on the person.
As always, thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed!
