Hyungwon

I went home and directly laid myself on the bed.

I was smiling the whole time I recalled the way Haneul suddenly hugged me. I just honestly felt giddy inside.

I picked up the phone and dialed my mom's number.

"Hello mom?" I greeted.

"Oh my dear son, how are you?" She asked.

It felt like she was really happy to hear my voice.

"Mom?" I asked.

"Yes, sweetie?"

"I... got into an accident yesterday." I confessed.

"W-what?!" She freaked out.

"Wait! Before you say anything, everything's just fine! You don't have to worry.. I got hospital treatment already, and the doctor told me everything I needed to know." I told her.

"Oh my... how could this be fine?! What kind of accident did you get into?" I could hear the worry in her voice.

"The bus I rode bumped into a fast approaching car."

"Goodness... it's a relief that you're alive!" She spoke dramatically.

"I know.. It's okay mom, I'm not hurt. Anyways, is business doing well there in Jeju? I really miss eating the fresh seafood you always had prepared for me. You know how much I like shrimp right?" I smiled.

"Oh it's doing really fine! You should come visit me and your dad when you finish your semester there." She spoke with enthusiasm.

"Of course I will! By the way mom, remember Cheon Haneul? My childhood friend, the girl you would always tease me with." I chuckled.

"Omo! Yes of course, I do! That kid was very nice and smart. You two were a perfect pair! I honestly preferred her over your girlfriend way back then." She exclaimed.

I broke into a small giggle. My mom always got excited whenever she heard Haneul's name being mentioned.

"Don't bring up my ex girlfriend, mom. It was puppy love." I laughed.

"Whatever, son. Anyways, what about Haneul?" She asked.

"Mom, I finally know where she studies. It's quite near to my school. She still remembers me, and we're honestly back to being friends right now. I'm so happy I found her again." I told her.

"You're still friends? Can you step up that relationship into something else?" She teased.

"Mom!" I broke into laughter again.

"Hey, to be serious though.. You sure you don't feel anything more for her?" She asked.

Suddenly, what she asked brought me into actual thinking. I then started reflecting upon myself.

Am I really sure I'm not starting to like her?

"Well.. I don't know. I guess there is something. She's quite special, and I do seem to find myself caring for her more than I should, lately." I slowly smiled at the thought of Haneul.

"Alright sweetie, well good luck with that. Don't lose her again, okay?" She said.

"Yes mom, I won't." I nodded.

Wonho

I found myself right back again in the graveyard.

"Is there anyway to stop this? I just want to be with Haneul!" I grew frustrated at the fact that I kept coming back here.

I brushed my hair back, and started walking my way out of the graveyard.

"You need to stop right now."

Suddenly, a deep growling voice startled me.

I quickly turned around and found out that the owner of the voice was a big dark figure.

"Who are you?" I asked horrified.

"I can see what you are doing. You need to stop right now. You can't continuously force your world into hers. It hurts the beholder you're using, too." He warned me.

I began to be confused of what was actually happening.

"Are you a guardian or something? Am I something you are looking out for?" I asked.

The figure didn't reply. It didn't have a face, it was pure dark aura.

Simply terrifying.

"You can't tell me what to do! I like Haneul. Somehow, I'm gonna make this work my own way." I firmly spoke.

"Trying to use a man named Chae Hyungwon whom you consider a good friend?" He revealed.

"So? What about it?" I raised an eyebrow.

"You're putting his life in danger." He growled.

The smirk on my face now slowly began to fade.

"What are you talking about?" I questioned.

"The longer you try to enter his body repeatedly, the less chances of him getting back in succesfully. When the day comes, you will be stuck in his body. You will become the new him."

I was taken aback by what he was telling me. My conscience can't let that happen.

"When that happens, he will take your place, and he will vanish forever."

I was left speechless. I didn't know how to respond to his revelation.

"Why? I can't just let her go. I've been alone all this time, so why can't I be with her?" I complained.

"Do you really not remember? This is you paying back for what you have done. You're an abusive monster." He laughed.

"SHUT UP! I'M NOT A BAD PERSON!" I messed my hair up and brought my hands to cover my ears.

"I'm warning you, if you really want it, then go for it and see for yourself. You won't be happy. Make up your mind before it's too late." He said his last words before suddenly disappearing.

Haneul

I finally came home and did a time check. It was almost 10pm in the evening.

I unlocked my house and quickly went in, but Wonho's figure inside suddenly startled me.

"Oh my!!" I suddenly dropped my house keys.

I quickly bent my knees down so I could pick it up from the floor before properly greeting him.

"Yah, what are you doing here? You can't just enter and have it your way. That's trespassing." I nagged at him.

He simply stood infront of me like a statue before giving me a small smile.

"Is there something wrong?" I asked.

"I missed you." He finally spoke.

I froze and stared at him. I was trying to process the fact that he was suddenly being all sweet to me.

I actually missed seeing Wonho in that form. Him being inside Hyungwon was just too much of a distraction to me.

"Where have you been?" He asked.

"I... visited Bora in the hospital. Also, I met Hyungwon. He got into an accident while going home that night after our arcade date." I confessed.

Suddenly, the softness in his facial expression dropped. It was almost as if he didn't like hearing Hyungwon's name.

"Why did you visit him?" He frowned.

"What? No, I didn't. We just ran into each other." I was taken aback by his sudden mood swing.

"Oh... is that so?" He realized.

He sighed and started laughing at himself. Suddenly, he started walking closer to me.

"You're mine, alright? You know that." He spoke without taking his eyes off me.

He began patting the back of my head, while running down his hand through my hair.

"Of course." I gave him a smile.

After I affirmed of what he said, he then took his hand away.

"Now tell me," He spoke.

"... is there something I need to know between you and Hyungwon?" He suddenly asked.

I immediately froze upon hearing his question. His gaze at me was cold; it was as if he could send shivers down my spine.

All of his sudden actions were beginning to confuse me. I grew doubtful if Wonho was actually feeling okay.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"There must be a backstory as to why you don't like him that much. It confuses me. You don't like him, but you met up and let him drive the car for you. What's going on?" He spoke slowly.

I looked down as I grew more anxious each time he spoke.

I feel like I had no choice but to tell him about it.

"Hyungwon..." I started to speak.

"... Hyungwon and I were childhood friends." I confessed.

I slowly looked up and saw his face. He was trying hard to be cool about what I said. However, I could still see that he was obviously taken aback.

He licked his lips, and raised both his eyebrows while nodding his head bitterly.

"Wow. A special relationship, I see.." He chuckled.

"Well, it's not that special at all." I tried to make him think that I didn't care about Hyungwon as much.

"Wonho, I didn't feel uncomfortable about you using Hyungwon because of the fact that he was my old friend. It was rather because we were not on good terms anymore. You have nothing to worry about. I-It's not you Wonho, it's just me and.. issues I guess..?" I tried to explain.

"What do you mean by that?" He asked.

"Hyungwon and I had some misunderstanding. I don't consider us as friends anymore. On top of that, I just hate him." I said.

I looked at Wonho's face and saw him slowly absorbing all the information I just talked about. He was lost in thoughts, and a few moments later, I saw him break into a smile.

"You do?" He asked again.

I looked at him, thinking of what to answer.

"Uhm yeah? Thinking about how he ditched me way back then is enough for me to hate him. I want him gone, Wonho. So please, let's not use him anymore." I begged.

He looked at me in the eye and held both my hands.

"Don't worry, my princess. Just give me a little time..

"Soon, it will only be the two of us." He smiled.
