A Journey Called Life

CHAPTER 4

These days, I kept on thinking of going back home.

I’m giving up.

I’m… Gah! How was I supposed to find a person that never wants to be found?!

But what holds me back is the fact that I couldn’t afford to buy myself a ticket back home.

And with that, I thought of skipping meals to help myself save money faster.

One day, as I was working in the bookstore, I saw Eunkyuk coming in.

Weird, but he never dropped by when he is on duty.

By the look on his face, anyone could tell that he is troubled.

And so I asked what his problem is.

But what I did get in return is a confusing question.

“Do you know by any other chance a guy named Kwon So Hoon?”

“Huh?! No. Why? Who is he?”

“Nothing. Ah- I’m just, no don’t mind me… Just, I’m sorry if I disturbed you, I’m going back!”

“Eun- wait! Hey there! Come back here!”

But Eunhyuk never came back.

To say that I was a bit puzzled is an understatement.

I began to worry about him.

It’s my first time seeing him acting this way.

And when I got back, a suit is already waiting for me.

“Why?” I asked.

And I heard him say, “Just please come with me…”

Without a word, I changed clothes.

We rode in a taxi.

I began to worry again…

Eunhyuk never rode taxis. He always said it’s impractical.

But now… Why?

And so we came to our destination.

It’s a big building. A church may be. I mean, what’s with the big cross outside?

I felt my heart raced with every step we make.

Walking inside, I could feel the curious stares other people throw at us.

I also saw that one holding a cup of coffee accidentally slipped the drink out of his hands as he saw us passing by.

Eunhyuk kept a firm grip on my wrist as he walk swiftly on the hallway.

As we reached a glass door, he gently pushed it open.

And when we both entered, BOOM!

A-am I staring on my f-face?!
