The atmosphere started changing from pleasant evening to pitch black night just like his heart started aching for his loss. Even though he lost his parents, he was happy to have his brother till now. But suddenly his life turned upside down with his brother's death.

The fall from the cliff from the hands of Chieftain didn't hurt this much but his heart hurt so much for not having even a small glimpse of his brother. The already ill brother must have dead because of his incompetence in taking care of him.

Oh.. How much he loved his didi..

The only thing he has now is the Dao in his hands which he found when he tripped on it while he is running back to the top of the cliff. But he didn't find his brother. Not even a small trace.

A small hope to find him made him search the entire forest and it's been days but he found nothing.

His brother didn't have any powers or they didn't awake till now if he has any. Did his body disintegrate after his death? Is that his power? How should he take? Is he alive or dead? If he is alive, he will never leave him behind because his didi love him so much and he love his didi more. He was his didi's mom and dad after their death. He took care of him and he never left him. But he left for him forever. What has he done to deserve this punishment? Why does everyone in his life leaving him behind?

His mind as well as his body got tired and the atmosphere turned cold and getting darker minute by minute and it looks like it's going to rain now. He dragged his tired body to a cave nearby and went in to spend the night.

The hope in finding his brother was totally gone and his mind says he's gone forever. He'll be alone from now on and this night is going to be long..

He looked around it and it looks like someone lived there very long back and no one using now. He found an old blanket near a big rock. He sat down by that and wrapped the blanket around him as it was so cold outside and tried to fall asleep. It took a long time for him to sleep with all the thoughts about his didi and eventually his tired body and mind gave up and he fell into deep slumber.

Suddenly a loud thunder echoed and woke him up. His heart beat raced for a while and slowly the fear started to creep into him.

The fear of being alone

The fear of losing

What does he have to loose now? The Dao he found on that day and the mask his brother made him when they were still together..

Yes, the mask! The one thing he has now that reminds of his brother and their moments together.

It started to rain heavily and the constant thunders making his heart beat faster with the fear. He immediately picked it up and wore on his face.

He hid his head on the knees and hides his face from looking at the rain and the thunderstorm which resembles his heart right now.

He may still be a kid, but he has to grow and live on his own from now on. He should gather the courage and should live.

What if he got scared again? He knows how the people behave when they knew you are scared. They take advantage of you and some may make you suffer more. He learned this terrifying truth for the first time when he met that chieftain on the cliff.

He will never let anyone know his fear and he has to hide his emotions from others. He will keep the mask forever until his last day.

But...

The mask stayed the same way on his face only until that moment that happened on one starry night when the man who saved his life decided to take it off and let him see that beautiful night once again without any barriers.

Should he be thankful for that person to make him see clearly and be normal again?

Or

Should he hide his emotions from that person from not letting him know the fear of losing him just like he lost everyone he thought his?!!
