Everything looked dark but I could see a little light..until I slowly opened my eyes.
"Ugh...my head."
"You awake?"
"Where am i.."
"Why did you even followed me?"
"Well, you always reject my offer and of course its suspicious, so i follow you and now you just hit me."
I also started to explain why I didn't want to go out with her, where I myself didn't really like spending time with the way they did so I preferred to stay at the orphanage.
Besides, I myself often feel dizzy because I think too much about him, so I always look for ways to meet him and little by little I start to get interested in this world, especially about the monster.
"So this is where you live?"
"Yes, home sweet home."
"But, to think that an orphanage is like an apartment, is really crazy."
"You even got your own room, and it even looks very neat."
I know that it was a very shocking thing but I also couldn't tell her that it was all from the Agency.
"But, I was also surprised that the Hero was someone you had been waiting for all this time."
"...Yeah."
That's right, but how long do I have to wait for you to come home? Even if the lights in this room start to dim, you're not sure you'll come home.
'sigh'
"Wanna go for a drink?"
"Alright."
*Maybe a little ice will ease this feeling.*
That's what I thought until I even regretted going with her.
*Why is that person here?!*
*That guy who always brags about himself...I should just go home.*
"Oh, hey there! I didn't know you guys were coming."
"Aha...yeah."
*Fuck.*
Once you get along with this person everything will be about him, and why do people always like that arrogance.
Even though he's great at almost everything, the ending is all about his arrogance.
"Can't we just go home?" I whispered to her.
"I myself would rather go home than be with him to,but let's enjoy being alone together rather than with him."
We were looking for a table to sit at, but on the way, who would have thought that the quiet kid would also be in this cafe.
*What a coincidence this is..*
In the end, we enjoyed our time together, until without me realizing it, the quiet kid had disappeared.
'In the evening'
"Finally finished reading the novel.."
*But... "to be continue.."..?*
It seems like he hasn't had time to finish his novel, I feel really lonely like the atmosphere of this room.
*Everything felt strange, even when I went to school I felt uncomfortable.*
Even though the school situation is normal, I still feel uneasy.
What's more, it can be seen from the news that the monsters have begun to create their own ecosystem on the surface of the earth, and even several cities and countries have become victims.
"Can I continue like this?"
"..Wake up! Even he would be angry if I asked like that."
The next day I went to school as usual, the school looked quite even though some students had already arrived.
*Better to keep myself busy.*
Usually people who come early in the morning are those with annoying personalities.
But some of them are also interesting even though I don't know them, I'm really like a blank sheet of a book without a story.
*Maybe I'll start drawing something..*
Class started but one of the students was late and came with all the attention on him.
"Isn't that the quiet one?" The students whispered when they saw his presence with part of his body wet.
"Are you ok?" The teacher asked him but he just kept quiet and continued walking towards the students who were laughing at him.
One of the students who was the bully started to stand up when he saw him coming, but the quiet guy immediately took a chair and threw it at the bully's head until he fell unconscious.
A fight ensued between them, causing the surrounding students to start to panic. The quiet student looked overwhelmed when he was attacked, but he immediately turned the situation around with the object he threw.
When the quiet one managed to win, suddenly a big shock occurred, the shock was like an earthquake, making the students panic and start running out of the classroom.
As the shaking began to slowly subside, the classroom suddenly darkened and a flying monster appeared outside the window.
The monster immediately destroyed the class and mixed all the students running in fear, while "Park Min-ji" was silent and confused about what to do.
"Get up! We gotta go!!" Her best friend shout her on while pulling her to run.
"What is happening?"
"Like hell i know, just run!"
For now I can only run with the others, while thinking about how this could happen, whether the country's defenses have been defeated..but then what about him?
"How far do we have too run?"
"We have to get out from this school first."
As they ran out of the school the other monsters started attacking the people outside, the voice of fear and agony can be hear so loud.
But it all started to become clearer when we managed to get out of the school, the massacre was happening everywhere, their screams were heard more clearly and horrifyingly.
"Go! Don't just stand there!"
I immediately remembered the orphanage and immediately ran fast back to the orphanage.
"I'm so stupid! Please! Please be okay!!"
While on the way I saw a child crying alone on the road, a situation that caught my attention made me want to help him.
But I myself felt so scared that I couldn't move, but all of that disappeared when I saw a monster nearby that immediately moved me.
My body felt so light, everything felt so slow, I felt confident that I would succeed in saving him.
But when I managed to reach him, I didn't have time to move even though the monster was already in front of me.
*Is this the end for me?? Come on!!*
At that critical moment the monster was suddenly killed by someone who hit it to the ground with the armor on its body.
"Are you okay? What are you doing standing there like that?"
"...Uncle Seo-woo?"
"Come on, let's go to my house the others are waiting there. I've already cleared the path, I'll catch up!"
"Alright then, let's get moving."
Even though the child was scared I had to take him to a safe place, I couldn't just leave him somewhere else alone.
If uncle had to intervene, it meant the situation had worsened.
*I hope everything is fine, wait for me everyone!*
After running for a while, we finally saw the house that was in good condition.
"Finally we are here.."
"Is anyone home?"
"Who is it, arent you "Park Min-ji"? You okay, darling?"
"Yeah, im fine but more importantly, what is happening."
"The monsters that usually hide and make their hiding places their ecosystem, suddenly come out and immediately attack most of the world."
"But you don't need to worry, our country will definitely survive so just relax...because we have him."
"Him..?"
"Your grand family of course."
"Seo-woo (current Boss), Siyeo-Ma (Evacuation Section), Lee Hyun-woo's army soldiers, and Lee Hyun-woo's adoptive father or you could say the previous Boss."
"They're all out there fighting?"
"Yeah, so don't worry about it. They will be back."
Hearing those words did calm me down a bit, but I was also worried and wondered "why he wasn't here?".
"Rather than just sitting around, how about we sit down first, and if you want to see his room, that's fine too."
When I opened the door to his room, his place still looked very neat without a bit of dust.
Even though he has lived there for a long time, all his things are well maintained.
"Doesn't her face..look like mine?"
"Seriously..."
I don't think I'm surprised anymore how he feels about me after seeing this photo, but I also have a lot of questions for him.
"Please keep yourself safe, okay..?" I could only feel worried while holding the photo.
When I was holding the photo, I accidentally felt something behind the photo frame, and it turned out there was a message paper tucked behind the photo.
'I knew you would enter this room and find this paper...'
'By that time, I must have been gone for a long time and made you miss me.'
'I know I scared you a lot back then, but now you must be wondering how I could be that strong.'
'I'm leaving this message because I miss you, and I'm also writing your story and giving you strength so you can take care of yourself.'
Even though you are hundreds of thousands of meters away, even though the world is in trouble, you can't stop making me miss you.
Even when the world was burning in chaos, you still managed to protect me and the others in so many ways, by making us stronger.
