Chapter 5

Haneul

I woke up in my house's sofa and saw the clock strike 12 when I opened my eyes. As soon as I tried gaining my consciousness, I suddenly heard a creaking sound in my door.

"Hey. Don't go." I immediately called out.

It was Wonho and he then slowly turned around to see me pulling my body up to sit.

"You're awake.." He gave a little smile.

"What happened?" I directly went to asking him.

"You fainted." He answered.

"I know. I meant, what did you do to them?" I tried to get him to tell me.

He hesitated and eventually went to sit beside me on the couch.

"You didn't kill them did you?" I made my assumptions.

He faced me with a questioning look.

"What are you exactly?" I kept asking him.

"Calm down." He tried to shush me.

"Ah.. sorry." I apologized.

Wonho

As soon as I had Haneul collapse, I showed myself to Elisa and her gang. I was angry and bewildered that time which caused them to see me in my real form. It was an unpleasant sight to see, well I was. That sight, me, horrified them.

I threatened them harshly and promised terror leading them to get away quickly leaving me to take care of Haneul alone.

...

"So what did you do?" Haneul got me off of my thoughts.

"I called the police." I simply answered.

"They won't get back at us right? I'm.. worried." She concerned.

"They won't." I firmly assured her.

She gave me a warm smile.

"Omo! By the way!" Her smile turned into a surprised frown.

"...Yeah?" I hesistantly asked.

"How did you know I lived here?! How did you bring me here?! Perhaps you did something to me did you? Yah! What did you do!" She accused me.

"W-wait!" I tried to stop her.

"Are you a stalker?" She gasped.

"N-no! N-not at all... I saw a card in your wallet!" I denied.

"Wah! You're a thief?" She asked.

"How can you accuse the person who saved you as something like that?!" I argued with her.

"Why do you care so much?" She raised her brow at me.

"I dont know!" I bluntly answered.

"So, what are you exactly?" She asked again.

I froze. Its something I can never speak up about. I'm scared that even one of the only persons in this world who can see me would eventually vanish away and isolate me.

"Oh! It's 12am. Eat some dinner or go back to bed. I'll have to get going now. Have a good day." I changed the topic calmly.

I walked to the door and heard her speak to me again.

"Annyeong! Go home safely. Thank you for coming to my rescue." She said.

I smiled at her words and went back to walking.

Haneul

How many times have Wonho showed up whenever I needed him? Everytime I insist on how annoying he is, he still never leaves my side.

"Wah.. I can't believe him.." I held my heart. It was beating wild.

"Aaaaaaahhhhh!" I put my face in the pillow and screamed my emotions out.

I was immediately blushing pink just by the thought of having Wonho as my hero.

I woke up happily to the sun shining brightly at my house's window. I then looked at myself in the mirror.

"Pretty." I complimented myself.

Later on, I bursted giggling.

"Aigoo, what is wrong with me today?" I wondered as I went to the bathroom to groom myself.

After I was done, I went to my closet to take out my uniform. I changed into them but before I went, I felt incomplete. I stared at myself in the mirror again. By instict, I suddenly took out my makeup and put a little powder and lip tint on my face. I also made better effort to comb my hair straight.

"There." I was ready to go out.

I packed my food instead and went to school. I rode on my bike and proceeded to go.

As soon as I arrived at school, I saw Kim Taehyung and his friends. I felt uneasy because all these times, I've now been trying to get over him and avoid their group.

However, I suddenly came across and saw Wonho by the school gate. I felt the urge to greet him but I avoided doing so.

"Cheonsa!" I heard his voice.

He called me? My eyes widened and my heart had an outburst of excitement.

I immediately stopped the bike and turned to him.

"Mwo?" I said.

"Woah, you look extra beautiful today." He complimented me.

"Take this. It's going to be a long day since it's a Tuesday. You need enough goods to fill your stomach." He gave me a nutritious drink.

"It's a Tuesday, not a Monday." I smiled questioning him.

"But Tuesday is the sister of Monday! So still, do well in school and enjoy your day!" He argued.

"Yeah yeah alright." I rolled my eyes.

He suddenly pouted.

"Haha, thank you! Bye bye!" I tapped on his shoulder and proceeded to walk away with my bike.

We left with smiles on our faces.

As soon as I parked my bike, someone startled me.

"Wah!!!"

"Heol--" I almost cursed.

It was Yoo Kihyun. He was a classmate of mine.

"Yah! What are you doing?! Were you letting me take a look of your bizzare face expressions again?" I teased.

He held his face feeling insulted.

"I have no time for derp. Can't you see I'm looking good today?" He said.

Hyemi, his girlfriend, and Iseul, Hyemi's friend, then came back.

"Boohoo, sure." I teased Kihyun.

"Hi Haneul!" Hyemi greeted.

I gave her and Iseul a wave.

"Has my Kihyun been bothering you again?" Hyemi asked.

"Pshhh.. Hey, Eul-ah, who was that guy earlier?" Kihyun asked.

"Guy? Has Haneul been seeing someone?!" Iseul gasped.

"Yeah dumbo, weren't we just eyeing Haneul and her guy friend earlier near the gate?" Kihyun reminded.

"We were? But I saw no one but her! Where was the guy friend you were talking about earlier? Iseul, did you see?" Hyemi wondered.

"Right! I didn't see anyone but Haneul too. Hey girl, is this true? Were you with a guy earlier?" Iseul asked.

"Was... I?" I started to grow confused too.

I looked at Kihyun and he suddenly grew pale.

"Kihyun-ah, you alright?" I asked.

"Oh... y-yeah.." He stuttered.

"We'll get going Haneul! Bye!" Hyemi said.

"Bye!" I waved.

"Hm.. was it my third-eye again?" I heard Kihyun faintly whisper to himself from a distance.

I froze and turned my head to look at them as I was taken aback. I was really confused.

However, I brushed those thoughts off.

"They probably just didn't catch Wonho since he left early. I probably misheard Kihyun." I denied everything.

Kihyun

I was feeling bothered after realizing that Haneul just made contact with a ghost. He's actually not just any ordinary ghost. He seemed real and ordinary when he's not.

Probably he's a soul?

But what does he want from Haneul anyways?

"Jagi, can you proceed to class? I'm going to the restroom for a minute." I asked of Hyemi which she agreed immediately too.

I quickly went to the restroom with an urge to refresh my self and my thoughts. However, as soon as I opened the door, I found him.

My eyes widened as I quietly gasped, startled. I froze near the door which he eventually noticed. He turned his head to look at me and our eyes made contact.

Because of that incident, I was able to see in his past. It was as if I was hypnotized.

"There I saw him driving a car with someone obviously his girlfriend. He was furious and he went out of control. His girlfriend was pleading him to stop; she was full of bruises and wounds.

He did not listen. He let his emotions take the best of him. He was abusive. She was always the victim of his tantrums. He did not know how to handle her well. He was not a good man. He hadn't been able to be.

Because of his recklessness, it caused them death. A painful one. A tragic one. And now he brings with him those scars of his past, in search of another one. A special person who'll bring change to his being. The one who'll be able to help him make up to his wrongdoings. For him to learn the essence of love...

... So he can rest in peace."

I was quickly brought back to normal as soon as he broke our eye contact. I felt weak and my breathing quickened.

"Yah. Do you see me?" His voice echoed.

I had to do my best to avoid.

"You were looking at me just awhile ago. Our eyes met. You see me don't you?" He kept talking to me.

I washed my face in the sink and turned to his direction without actually looking at him.

"Aigoo, what are these words? Vandalism seriously... Aishhh yes I have been staring at this gum for too long, it still hasn't been removed, huh?" I tried to convert his attention.

I tried to make him believe I couldn't see.

"Oh... I thought he could. Tsk." He eventually muttered to himself.

Thank goodness.

He continuously eyed me before finally leaving the restroom. I was able to save myself.

Haneul

I was smiling to myself while holding the drink Wonho gave me. For some reason, I just couldn't take him out of my mind.

Are we meant to be?

That's what I kept thinking.

"Where has he been all my life?" I sighed.

"Don't." I suddenly heard Kihyun's voice which scared me.

"Omo-- yah!! Stop that!" I told him.

He looked like he wasn't in the mood.

"You okay?" I asked.

"Are you thinking about that guy earlier?" He asked.

"No!" I denied.

"Be careful. He's not what you think he is. As much as possible, never approach him again." He said.

"Huh?" I questioned his words.

"I've warned you." He simply stated before going to his seat.

Everything suddenly started to creep me out. What is it that I don't know?
