“It’s strange...”
“What is it?”
“I have a feeling something is wrong”
“ ..? “
Choi Yeonjun has been feeling increasingly anxious lately. Something seems to be making him so anxious that he can't even sleep.
“You couldn’t sleep last night either, right?”
“.. Yeah, you keep doing that these days.”
“You don’t know why?”
" .. huh "
Perhaps because he didn't sleep well, Choi Yeonjun's tension was noticeably lower than before and he looked very tired.
In the end, I decided to make something delicious to cheer Choi Yeonjun up, and we went to the market to do some shopping.
I wandered around here and there to make samgyetang, which Choi Yeonjun usually liked. Of course, I was holding a self-defense item in one hand.
“Now, just buy this and you’re done.”
After buying the last of the ingredients, I headed to the checkout counter. Fortunately, it seemed like I would be able to shop without any major issues today.
I didn't know that the calm before the storm is the calmest time.
Fed point of view,
Lately, I've been having this nagging feeling of unease. It felt strangely like someone was watching me and the female protagonist.
It wasn't even that old woman's aura. It was just a simple feeling of 'evil.'
I couldn't sleep well, thinking about the unidentified energy gradually engulfing this house. I had to visit the female protagonist's room frequently.
Because the identity of that energy might be the fate that is approaching the female protagonist.
Last night, I couldn't sleep, so I took a quick nap. When I woke up, Yeoju was nowhere to be found in the house, save for a note saying she'd gone to the supermarket.
“Ha.. I wonder if it’ll be okay”
Worried, I eventually went outside and quickly searched for Yeoju in the sky that was darker than I thought.
As the night deepens, that fate will try to torment the heroine more strongly.
at that time,
Swish,
" ..!! you.. "
“You? I’m several years older than you.”
“ … ”
“..you are looking for that child”
“..you took it?”
“Huh..what do you think I am?”
“If you know where it is, tell me right now.”
“..don’t look for it”
" what..? "
"Don't look for it"
"Don't talk nonsense. If I don't find him, that kid might die."
“No, it would be the opposite.”
“What are you talking about..? Tell me so I can understand.”
“Death was inherent in that child’s destiny from the beginning.”
“ … ”
“Because of your greed, the child who was destined to die that day is suffering like this now.”
“ … ”
“From the beginning, all gods were selfish.”
“ … ”
"Is death cruel? No, death isn't always a cruel fate."
” … “
"You know best"
I knew. That day, the heroine was destined to die there.
While I was looking for a bride with my grandmother, I happened to find Yeoju there and was drawn to an inexplicable emotion.
Despite the old woman's protests, I gave you the ring. Perhaps it was out of pity for you, who was destined to die that day.
Because of that ring, you lived. But since it's impossible to change a fate once it's been decided, death keeps coming.
"I can stop it. Just save me for the rest of my life."
"No, that's impossible"
“So now you want me to break the contract and let that child die?”
" you.. "
“ … ”
“You already love that child.”
"Okay, so tell me where it is."
“.. You guys also have such a pitiful fate.”
Eventually, I passed the old woman and continued to look for the female lead.
Yeoju City Point,
“What the… Was it always this dark here?”
Strangely, the streetlights seemed dimmer than usual. Even though it wasn't time to turn them off yet, they glowed dimly.
In an instant, I had a gut feeling that death was coming towards me.
A much stronger and darker death than before
I called out Choi Yeonjun's name to the ring I was wearing. But for some reason, Choi Yeonjun didn't show up.
Just then, I heard someone running towards me. Terrified, I started running like crazy towards the house.
Tears were already flowing from his eyes and he continued to shout Choi Yeonjun's name.
“Please… please save me… quickly.”
The sound of running came closer and closer, but Choi Yeonjun still did not appear.
" please.. "
At that moment,
widely,
“Mom..!!!”
Hug,
“.. Choi Yeonjun..?”
"Ha.. I'm glad I'm fast at running."
“Ugh..why are you here now..oh I really thought I was going to die..!!”
" Sorry.. "
“Huh.. I really thought I was going to die this time.. ”
“I’m sorry.. I’m so sorry.”
“What the... Are you crying?”
“I’m… really so sorry, heroine.”
"Choi Yeonjun... What's wrong? What happened?"
Strangely, Choi Yeonjun immediately apologized and burst into tears as soon as he hugged me. What the heck? Am I dead? Am I possibly communicating with this person through my spirit right now?
One thing was certain.
That something is going wrong
