Chapter 10 - The Orbit

(A figure steps in, breathing hard, eyes wild with fear and rage...)

Moon

"LET. HIM. GO."

Jun

How did you get here?

Moon

(Pushed Jun aside and slapped him right in the face. Blood splashes from his mouth and nose.)

Why?... Why did you do it? Why did you betray me? You were my favorite cousin! Just why?

Jun

Because…I hate you and I hate the sight of you!

Moon

(Slapped his face again and rushed to remove the handcuffs from Tay)

Tay! Tay, I missed you so much!

Tay(cries)

I missed you, too. Why did you take so long?

Jun

(Gets up and takes a heavy metal rod from the ground. He aimed it at Moon, but in a flash, Tay turned and got the hit. Blood came dripping from his head.)

Moon

Noo!

(Gets up and hits Jun in the leg.)

Tay

Run! Run Moon! Save yourself!

Moon

No! I won't leave you here!

Jun

(Called the police)

Moon hit my best friend with a rod! Please…Please help him!

(The police came and captured Moon and took Tay to the hospital.)

Moon

Please, take him to the hospital!

INT. After a week

(Tay was in the hospital bed, weak and helpless. He was in a coma for a week. When he woke up, he saw his stepmother and his aunt, and his uncle.)

Tay

Mom! Auntie, Uncle! Where is Moon?

Xie Ruolan

He..He is in jail.

Tay

Jail? What do you mean by jail?

(stood up and tried walking, but couldn't)

Mei Lin Jirawat

You should rest. We are all trying to get Moon back.

INT. Hospital — Night

(Tay stares out the window. Moon's necklace — the one he gave him on their first date — rests tightly in Tay's palm.)

Tay (voice breaking):

"I'm not strong without him. My sun… why did you take him away from me?"

(A single tear rolls down his cheek. The door creaks open. A police officer walks in.)

Officer:

"You're Tay, right? Moon left you this letter."

(Tay opens the letter with trembling hands.)

Moon (reading the letter):

"Even if the world thinks I'm a monster, I'd take the blame a thousand times just to keep you safe. I'll wait — however long it takes. I'll still orbit around you.

(Cut to black screen.)
