Light and Dark--Yun and Yang--Ch.1
"Yun, I've been wondering something…" Yang said and looked at his younger twin brother. "What is it?" Yun turned to face Yang. "We have a higher purpose than most of our friends. But, what is that higher purpose? I was hoping that you knew," Yang said. Yun shook his head and sighed, "No idea."
"Just think: Why were we named for Light and Dark? Is there something that are parents knew that we didn't know?" Yang had a point. Yun had sometimes wondered the exact same thing. "Wait…Who were our parents anyways? Do you remember? I don't," continued Yang. "Odd. Neither do I," Yun said. "Could it be that…" The older brother's voice paused as the idea came. He knew that it was a bit farfetched, but just might be possible.
"Could what be possible? Does it have to do with our parents?" Yun was now curious as to know what Yang was thinking. "Wait. No, you're not thinking that our parents are gods, are you, Yang?" Yang nodded. "How'd you know that that was what I was thinking?" Yun shrugged. "That thought just popped into my mind. I don't know why."
"Call me crazy or whatever, but I think that we were supposed to originally be one person, but somehow became two," Yang said. "Ok, I won't call you crazy, but I will call you weird and over-imaginative. You have too much time on your hands sometimes, Yang." "Think. It just might be true. Why're we so alike at times, yet so different at others?" "You're right. I'm the Light, you're the Dark. And that makes sense too. Light is happy and full of energy and purity. Light is joy and peace and love. It casts away the Dark, which exists where Light does not shine," Yun explained.
"I, on the other hand, am the Dark. Full of sadness, lover of death and hater of Light. I only exist where Light does not shine. Never happy, never joyful, unpure, peaceless," sighed Yang. "I'm not like that usually, am I?" "No, not really." "Perhaps, if my feeling is right, I'll eventually become like that later on in my life."
All of a sudden, Yun had a worried look on his face as he stared at his older brother. "Yun, what's wrong?" "Something's so terribly wrong here, but I can't figure out what. And I bet it's one of those ominously obvious things too," was his younger brother's reply. "Nothing's wrong, Yun. Trust me on this one." "You sure?" "Yes." "Ok."
Just as Yun and Yang were about to continue their discussion, the phone rang, startling them both. "Yello?" Yun said. "Hey Remy? What up?" "Nothing much. And you?" "Ah, same ol same ol. Look, my bro and I were deep into a kinda strange discussion when you called, Remy." "Oh, sorry. Should I call back later or what?" "Nah. You should just come over and chill with me and my bro, 'k?" "Uhm, sure." Remy hung up and headed down to Yun's.
"So, what was it that you guys were talking about when I called?" "Well, Yang was sayin' that he and I had some higher purpose. I mean, wonder why I was named Yun which is Light and why my bro was named Yang which is Dark. And neither of us remember our parents. Yang said that it was a possibility that they were gods. So, I called him over-imaginative and odd." There was silence for a few minutes before Remy spoke.
"Yah, I did always wonder why you two were named what you were. How's it possible that neither of you two remember your parents? That seems kinda strange. I'd think that at least one of you would remember, if not both of you," Remy said.
"I know."
"We have to find some way to figure this one out," Yang said for the twentieth time in the past ten minutes. "Ok, how?" Yun was ready to go along with his brother's plan, if he could come up with one, that is. "I'll sleep on it. And I'll tell you if I have a plan tomorrow morning, ok Yun?" "Ok. Good night." The younger of the two brothers bowed to the other and was about to leave to go to his own room.
"Wait. Stay here, Yun." Yang placed a hand on Yun's shoulder. He turned and said, "Sure. But, where do I sleep?" He looked around the room. "We share the bed. What else?" Yang let go and laid down on the bed, which was barely wide enough for two people.
Yun raised a brow, but said nothing. He walked over and laid down beside Yang, who, much to Yun's surprise, wrapped an arm around his brother's waist, pulling him close. Just then, Remy walked in and found them like that.
"Oh, sorry. I'll be leaving now. Good night, Twin Dragons," Remy said and left. Yun and Yang just laid there, staring at each other. Their cheeks were a bright red color, meaning that they were embarrassed that Remy had seen them like this. "Perhaps we should wait until after whoever's at our house leaves next time," suggested Yun. "Agreed," said Yang.
"On another subject, I love you. And that love's more than just loving you as a brother," Yang said. "You love love me, don't you?" Yun muttered. He didn't like this. He wasn't into same gender love like some other people were. "Is there something wrong with that, Yun?" "Of course there is." Yang frowned. "Good night then." And so, the two slept.
