I was about to go to bed when my doorbell rang.I got up and checked the door, but no one was there, I looked down and there was a letter, in an orange envelope.
It said, "I know you were the one who killed, your parents if you don"t want everyone to know, come to Han River Park."
I grabbed my coat and ran to Han River Park, it wasn"t far from where my apartment was.
The street was almost empty. I looked around while gasping. I then saw a man in all black, holding another orange envelope. He saw me and started running.
So I ran after him.
After I caught him, he told me to read the letter and go to the location listed, and that he wasn"t the person, I should be looking for.
I read it and I grabbed a taxi. When I got there, the man in the taxi told me to be careful, I nodded and thanked him.
When I went in, I turned on my phone"s flashlight.
I looked around, and I heard a voice from above, I looked up and saw Bom-i and Eun-Ji hanging from the ceiling, I was so shocked that my body wasn"t moving.
I started to hear humming, I looked around and a man came down, he had covered himself with a mask so I couldn"t see his face.
"Let them go, this is between you and me," I said.
"Not until they hear your secret," He said.
My heart skipped a beat.
"T-tell them," I said.
"So you do admit, that it wasn"t your sister who killed your parents, it was you," He said.
"I d-do," I said. I looked up and Bom-i and Eun-Ji, who looked like they didn"t care.
"Now let them go," I said, He cut the rope.
Bom-i held Eun-Ji and I caught them.
The man was leaving while laughing "It"s always fun, to play with pretty girls."
After they had, removed the tape.
I looked at them.
"It"s okay, we really don"t care about what happened in the past, just promise you will be different from now on," Eun-Ji said and Bom-i nodded along.
"I promise," I said and smiled, they smiled back.
Then we walked until we found, a cab. We stopped at the convenience store. Where we bought some snacks and ate together. I got home at around 1:00 am and went straight to bed. I was so happy that this day wasn"t as bad as the rest.
The next day I woke up at 5:00 am and got ready, after eating breakfast, I took my medicine. As I left, the lady next door, saw me and I bowed, she responded back with a smile. I got on the bus, with Bom-i who lived a few blocks away from me.
When we got to cla.s.s, everyone was talking about a new transfer student. We asked Bora what was going on, and she said "The students saw, a really tall and handsome guy, who is supposed to transfer to our cla.s.s," we sat down at our seat, and Hyung-Woo turned around and said "I bet I am more handsome than the new kid," which made everyone laugh.
After a couple of minutes, Miss Sunny came in with the transfer student, he was tall, handsome and when he spoke his voice was deep and husky. "h.e.l.lo, I am Kang Min-Gyu, nice to meet you," he said, and all the girl started to say "Oh my he is so cute", and "doesn"t he look like Exo Chanyeol?"
Bom-i looked at me and said, "You don"t like him like all the other fools do, right?" I said "No, he"s too tall for me," then Bom-i smiled and said "Stop lying," I hit her while smiling.
The teacher told him to sit next, to Jae-Hyun, who sat a seat aways from, Bom-i.
When he walked to his seat, our eyes met, and he smiled at me.
My heart skipped a beat and, the whole day it felt like someone was looking at me.
Even though one half of me didn"t like that he was always looking at me, the other half thought it was fine.
That other half also liked that someone was always looking at me.
Weeks pa.s.sed, and I still had a feeling.
I then went to Min-Gyu and said "Follow me," He followed, me to the rooftop. Then I asked him "Why do you keep looking at me?"
He laughed and said, "So know I can"t look at someone who looks pretty."
I just looked at him, and he said "Pretty."
I was awed, but I asked, "That day why did you, do it?" He was confused and, asked me what I meant.
"Why did you tell them my secret?" I said.
He moved closer and said, "I like playing with pretty things, and it"s more interesting when they have nice secrets."
Then he walked away.
I looked at him, as he walked away, he turned around, and took something out of his shirt and threw it at me.
It was a paper airplane. I opened it up, and it had a letter inside.
It said "I am sorry for my actions, it"s just my secret is just like yours. My life was difficult until I found out you were like me. I trust you, so I will tell you my secret. I have killed many people and, was always scared to turn myself in."
He was like me. How can someone be like me?
I will be there for him, cause I have found my missing half.
I wonder if he was all alone, he must have felt terrible.
Why did I care a lot though? We just met but it felt like I knew him for years.
Just then it started raining, and the clock hit 12:00 pm.
Instead of going inside, I sat down in and started to hyperventilate, as I thought of the incident.
I reached in my pocket for my medicine and it was empty. I started banging my head on the wall.
I was bleeding a lot, but I couldn"t stop.
Just then I thought of what, unnie said to me "Remember I will always love you, and no matter what I will always be here to support you."
I stopped and started to cry, as I saw the blood in my hands.
"I am a monster," I thought to myself.
