Second life

It's 4 AM now

Can I text you?

If I contact you now, won't it be a nuisance?

"Jeonghan, are you sleeping?"

There was no answer, but I read the KakaoTalk message

최 승철 image

최 승철

'You're not sleeping, thank goodness.'

"No, I'm not sleeping because I can't sleep."

You had insomnia.

So, I had a tired face every day.

Now, and before.

최 승철

"Until now, what have you been doing up all night?"

I sent you a text so you wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

윤 정한

"I was listening to music and chatting with you on KakaoTalk.. haha"

윤 정한 image

윤 정한

" you? "

This is the first time I've answered in reverse.

I think it's changing.

최 승철 image

최 승철

'I haven't done anything, but I definitely have to answer.'

최 승철 image

최 승철

'Because this could be the first and last time.'

최 승철

"I was organizing the house little by little."

윤 정한 image

윤 정한

"Oh, then I'll go to your house later!"

최 승철 image

최 승철

"Okay, come over to my house later and play."

윤 정한 image

윤 정한

"When should I go.."

윤 정한 image

윤 정한

"How about Tuesday this week?"

최 승철 image

최 승철

"Yeah, good."

Let's make an appointment and talk a little more.

In the morning, I, Jeonghan, am talking on the phone.

I got ready to go to school.

It was a little cloudy.

I grabbed an umbrella and left the house.

최 승철

"It looks like it's going to rain."

Thump - thump -

최 승철 image

최 승철

" uh? "

A shower of rain poured down from the sky.

최 승철 image

최 승철

"It was a good thing I brought an umbrella."

최 승철 image

최 승철

"Whoa-"

최 승철 image

최 승철

"It's cold because it's raining."

It was half quiet.

The appointed place was empty, blank.

최 승철 image

최 승철

"Not here yet?"

Jeonghan went to school at 4th period.

Oh, why did you come at 4th period?

I don't know, I never paid any attention before.

최 승철 image

최 승철

"Jeonghan, what happened?"

윤 정한 image

윤 정한

"I went to the hospital to get some medicine."

You went to get some sleeping pills.

최 승철 image

최 승철

"I was worried because you didn't come."

윤 정한 image

윤 정한

"Were you worried?"

최 승철 image

최 승철

'Yeah, not a little, but a lot'

I feel like I've just had a new memory of worry.

I really want to be by your side

It's turning my life upside down.

I'm next to you.

If you are by my side.
