The anger in Yan Lan fester, his dissatisfaction on the accident in the race made him frustrated and these feelings somehow were inter related to their past. Each time he threw his tantrum it was felt by Kay.
"Kay!!" Hey what's wrong? Kay clutch to his heart and dropped his phone on the floor - a sharp pain just came through. He stood there for a while shocked with what just happened. "Kay! Hey you okay?" Few of his colleagues asked.
"Yeah..."Kay stood up, picking up his phone
"What's wrong?" A friend asked as he helped him up to his feet again.
"No... nothing I'm fine" Kay comforted them and excused himself.
Kay took a moment to breathe, he noticed and realised whenever Yan Lan fall into an anger rage, there is a sharp nudge in his heart - it was as though they were connected. He took a moment to breathe and calm his anxiousness until he settled down. He stopped for a bit and reflected what had just happened.
Kay fell silent into his quiet self and said a prayer at the corner of the room for Yan Lan that he will be calm, safe from hurt and be composed as he goes through this.
"How much more to endure?" He asked silently
"Is this part of the whole deal....? Is this just a test for us? But love is kind....does it need to suffer?" He asked as tears fell from his eyes.
The path they had chosen and the vows under the night skies remain clear in their hearts. While there were divides on what is wrong vs what is right, love never discriminates .... never should. It is their right. Kay took out his phone again and texted
"I saw ...I was afraid for the first time ever ..what might have happened, call me only when things settled, will be okay. Be composed, let not others use this to take it out of context. I love you, you did well, be well" He clicked send knowing it would be chaotic and he could only call when things settled down.

Back in the magical forest before the incident
"Sent more guardian angels to watch over - don't interfere just protect where possible" The old wise man could see the looming danger and had ask that both of them be protected more again. This journey down while it brought fame - it was also devastating for them. They were put through one challenge after another and it was heartbreaking to see how Red and Blue were pressed on to assimilate into how if the worldly realm works.
"Elder one - what about Red? Will he be fine as he'd in a way asked to bear what Blue had to suffer" The curious guardian angel asked as they could recall the last time when blue went outrage red stood in to bear the consequences of resentment left quietly
"He should be alright I believe after going through the punishment that he chose to take over from Blue - while his soul's purity kept him intact deep in sleep recuperating, it was Blue's tears that were filled with deep emotions for him that healed him and woke him up." The wise man explains and added
"This deep bond that I can't explain either which seems to be tying them even when they were almost destroyed when I found them. As soon as their souls glowed again at the core of the flowers it naturally latched on one another unknowingly." The wise man continue with his thoughts to the guardian angels
"It felt as though they were already been made souls mates from the very beginning - can't be hidden or denied no matter how they try to - their eyes and soul recognised each other while the body is just a vessel ...while they can't fully remember whenever they jumped realm - it's there subconsciously. In the earthly realm when they can unite it's fiery unison will show and it grows stronger over time and they need to learn to protect it"
"Here... when they are back here without their vessel they are purified through the water of life that washes away any earthly attachment - as it is written from the beginning. Just loving souls."
"To answer your question - Red could feel
when blue had any resentment or immense negative emotions that stored in him - after all it was Red's pledge then to let him bare it, the punishment of bearing such emotions but in the earthly realm it doesn't really matter.
They should be guided by their mission to do good and share what they had set out to. That true love existed even amongst humanity." The wise man knew somehow when he was tasked to look after the remains of these soul passed from ancient ancestor beyond when the magical forest was created .... it was something special why he had been chosen though there were no explanation to it just a scroll that he had then."
"But elder one...shouldn't the wicked be punished on those that try to harm them be brought to justice?"
"Fellow guardian angels... the worldly affairs are not ours to interfere...all doings will have its own judgement and karmic consequences beyond our understanding when the time comes. It takes its own course like how it had been written from the beginning. Both Red and Blue's purity and endurance will overcome these."
The old wise man said as he looked up and stare into his surrounding. The enchanted forest filled with so much wonders and freedom - the falling petals and leaves carried through the stream by the calm river flow. The swaying grass playing hide and seek with the magical glowing butterflies and home to the fireflies that light up the place. The other souls that roam freely here compared to both Red and Blue having to deal with their predicament - yet it was their chosen path.
The soft falling petals and leaves carried by the calm flowing stream, the magical glowing fire flies and butterfiies that light up the forest .... the comfort of this place as oppose to what both Red and is going through seems a far difference.
