ㅤㅤ"Annyeong haseyo, motherfucker," I greeted with a smile. 

"Yah." Jimin exclaimed. "I still can't believe what you did last night!"

I laughed out loud, clutching my stomach. "I thought you like horror?" I teleported a creepy poster behind his back to prank him last night and he let out a very ear piercing scream. I was really surprised to hear him!

"I hate pranks!"

"Damn. I should have recorded it, posted it on youtube and when it gets viral, a lot of viewers will request for more and then eventually we'll start posting prank videos, get into real business and get a bank!" I told him. 

"Stop. I hate you."

"Come on, you'll be a youtube star though," I kidded.

Jimin glared at me while he drinks his coffee. "Actually, I have something to tell you."

Is this the time?

Is this the day that I've been waiting for?

"Are you going to propose to me?" I questioned, with a hopeful smile.

"That's not it."

"Oh." I pursed my lip.

"Jayeon," Suddenly, his eyes lit up and spoke the following words with a grin on his face, "I want to be your friend."

I want to be your friend.

I want to be your friend.

I want to be your friend!

"OH MY FMGOD FOR REAL!" I covered my whole face with my hands.

His eyes widened. "Are you crying right now! Wait there's no tears coming though—"

"Of course dumbass it's because I'm a ghost!" I answered.

I want to be your friend?

I want to be your friend.

I want to be your friend.

"I-IM SO HAPPY WE'RE FINALLY FRIENDS!" I screamed. "Jimin I feel like I'm in the clouds right now, we're finally friends! It's like a dream come true. Is that even you? Are you okay? Did I really startle you last night to make you think like this! Omg I'm about to break down in 3, 2, 1—"

"What do you mean by that?" He laughed. "Why would you think I'm not myself? You're being weird right now."

"Well, I dunno, you're not the kind to inform me that you accepted my friend request even if you already felt like it." I talked.

He touched his chest, dramatically, "Wow you know me so well."

"Will you be shocked if I tell you I was the one who gave birth to you?"

He grimaced. "And, Jayeon, I'm happy you noticed my development. I changed, I don't want to be disrespectful to you anymore."

I covered my mouth. "I-is that true?"

"Yes."

"Y-you won't hurt me?"

"Yes, I won't say hurtful things to you anymore. I've changed." He smiled.

I want to weep.

"Do you promise that?"

"How many times do I have to say yes?" He groaned, probably getting annoyed. "I promise."

"Aw honey, come here, let me give you a hug," I cooed, my arms waiting for him. Jimin smiled as he slightly crashed his body into mine. I enveloped my arms around him and hummed softly. "Come to think of it. You're not so soft as I thought."

"Uh yeah?" An uncertain tone was evident. "I don't use lotion nowadays."

I snickered.

"What's the fragrance you use though? Can I sniff?" I leaned my head to the side as I sniffed him like a dog. He laughed slightly. I composed my hand and teleported something from his drawer. "It's so manly and attractive."

"Yeah, it's a trend nowadays." He explained.

"Your perfume smell good."

I aimed the cold, sharp kitchen knife to his neck.

"But I'd love to breathe in the scent of your blood more." I whispered before stabbing him.

Jimin let out a loud yelp as he struggled to get off me, but I was stronger so his protests doesn't make me stop. I punctured the knife deeper and twisted it. "Say goodbye." I muttered as I pushed him off.

The knife was still on the side of his neck, he was in a horrendous pain he couldn't even utter a phrase.

I crouched down and gripped his hair. "I've been too tired of keeping up with you. Do you want to hear my secret? I never wanted to be your friend from the very start."

I watched him whimper on the floor as I roam around to locate his phone. When I found it, I dialed the number I've memorized and waited for the answer. "He's here and injured. Where's my award now?"

"Is that him?"

I clicked my tongue. "Yeah," I held out the phone in his front.

"Woah, he's even crying. Freaking amazing."

It sounds so pathetic, I want to throw up. I was about to kick him on his stomach when he clasped my feet.

"I-I thought y-you were n-nice..."

In this world, things are not always how they appear to be.

But honestly, I feel a bit reluctant doing this. I couldn't look at his face for a long time.

"I told you many times that I'm not a good person." I chuckled. "It's your fault for not believing me."

"W-why would you d-do t-this to m-me?" He whimpered. "W-why are you k-killing m-me?"

When they always ask why you're killing them, but they never ask what's killing you.

Bruh moments.

"Why wouldn't I do that to you? You deserves it, you made me look like a fool." I gritted my teeth.

"I d-didn't... I d-don't have a-any idea o-of what y-you're talking a-about..."

"Oh quit the act and just die." I retorted back.

"Jayeon h-help m-me—"

"Seriously! Will you drop it?" I kicked his hand with a furious face. "I'm not in the mood to hear you weeps blah blah I don't have time for you anymore." I retrieved back the knife and punctured it on his heart.

"J-Jaye—" He gasped for air for the last time and finally ceased breathing.

"Finally, you're dead."

I looked down to the cadaver on the ground. He was bathing on his own blood and a stain of tears stood as an evident that he went through in so much pain. I blinked sadly to him.

"Rest easy, honey. Sorry if you have to die this way, I know you hoped not to die with so much pain but here we are." I talked, "I promise, next life I won't murder you like this." I smiled assuringly, raising my pinky finger.

I stood up with an agitated feeling before I walk around his apartment. As I was about to go to his room, the black siamese cat went closer to me.

"You surely went here for him, too bad, he's not here anymore." I caressed her fur.

I heard a screech.

I immediately toured my eyes around the place.

I will not forget how it sounded. That's exactly the sound I heard last week. I couldn't be mistaken.

I smirked to myself as I headed back to where the cadaver was.

I peered down to him as I crossed my arms, "You thought you could hide the truth forever?"

"You thought you could hide it out until the end?"

"You should've hidden well without being caught."

The atmosphere on the place altered in instant. It was as if there was a tornado inside his apartment and now making the area turn into an immense mess.

Tap.

Tap.

Tap.

Tap.

Tap.

TAP!

I composed my hand to make the wind stop. "When exactly are you going to tell me the truth?"

A sound coming from somewhere was making a continuous sound.

Tap.

Tap.

Tap.

The body on the floor twitched.

"Who are you?"

I shouted.

"Where is Hoseok?"

"Where did you bring my boy!"

Tap.

Tap.

Tap.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

TAP! TAP! TAP!

TAP! TAP!

"Hehehe..." His eyes suddenly flew open. "You called?"

The torso looked at me before letting a obnoxious demonic laugh. "You're really a smart ass, I see." He sat on the floor as he casually pulled the knife out of his chest and threw it at me. I whipped my head to the side, causing the utensil punctured on the wall behind me.

I grimaced. "Where is he?"

"I am here."

"You know well that I am no longer messing with you," I answered. "You are not him!"

"Fuck. You really catch everything?"

"Let's end this quick. I knew from the start that you were faux, but I still want to say my statement about the friendly days we had."

"How was it? My acting was amazing right?" He cocked his head to the side.

"The first day sucked, the second day sucked, and the third day sucked."

"How about today?"

"Oh this one," I trailed.

"Oh yeah?"

"It's going to be remarkable because today will be your end."

"Sad to hear that," He chuckled before his eyes turned black. "Thank goodness I don't have to talk to you anymore. I've wasted a lot of time for you, I'm so tired of trying to control you."

"SHOW YOURSELF," I decreed. "Stop being so trying hard, asshole!"

"Oh I should introduce myself first," He cleared his throat before he snapped his fingers and a dark smoke appeared around him.

The lights started to flicker on and off.

I coughed. "Bitch what's that smoke effect for? Stop it I have a bad asthma."

The smoke disappeared immediately, "Sorry I didn't know." He excused before snapping his fingers again and an awful load of smoke now is around me.

"You know ghosts can't breathe in the first place. You know that right?" I stated in a poker face.

"Let me introduce myself, whore. I'm a level three ghost, and is currently on search for a soul like you," He said in a dark voice.

I stood on my place as I witness how his face changed in an instant.

"...I'M KIM NAMJOON."
