Chapter 12! I'm probably going to stop updating here and relocate the gashiyeon stuff to egashiyeonso please support ^^


Walking past the dark and mysterious swamp, I arrived at a familiar corridor. If I make a turn at the end, I'll reach a research lab that belongs to a professor who's very fond of me. Yunho had skipped class because of me, and that professor had deducted marks from him because of that. I was whining to him so badly that he couldn't ditch me for his exam, so in the end he only had half the marks he was supposed to be getting. Yunho had no choice but to accept his results, but when I saw him sigh at his paper, I immediately regretted my actions. So here I am, trying to beg the professor to be more lenient, hoping he likes me enough to listen to me.

"I'm terribly sorry... I'm the reason why Yunho skipped class..."
"No! Are you listening to me at all?"
"Then deduct my marks, not his! Please?"
"Do you even have any marks for me to deduct?"
"Really? ...But... but please just discuss this with Yunho before deducting his marks. I'm begging you!"

I closed my eyes, and when I opened them...

I found myself looking up at the classroom ceiling... Those seniors whom Yunho warned me about have found me. The door was locked and I can't escape. I tried to hide in a corner of the classroom, but they caught me instantly. I can't fight against them! They pushed me down onto a desk and striped off all my clothes, revealing places where no one has seen before aside from Yunho. I couldn't stop trembling, my fearful eyes reflecting the faces of those three disgusting people. Yunho will never come, right? He's probably accompanying those cute girls who're always looking for him, so he won't pick up even if I call him right? ...I'm scared...

"Only Yunho's touched you here before, eh?"
"This place... He put it inside you here, right? Bastard... open up your legs more..."

I closed my eyes again and opened them slowly...

I made a crude sound as I tore off my clothes, and then I saw her face twist into shock as she entered the room. My body froze. She let out a high-pitched scream that could shatter mirrors. I couldn't stop shivering. You... what are you doing... I couldn't answer her at all, clenching my jaws to keep my teeth from chattering. She yelled at me.

"No... My Yunho... I saw it... You can't!!"

I closed my eyes again....

"Ah! Ha, ha..."

It was a nightmare! I held a hand to my chest to steady my breathing. The space next to me on the bed was empty. I stood up immediately, but fell back to the bed with my head spinning. I shut my eyes and took a deep breath. My heart rate's slowly going back to normal, and I could feel myself drenched in cold sweat. I opened my eyes again. An empty bed without him seems even more lonely than it should.

I tried to recall my dream, but then I realized that it was just another one of those where you have to keep fighting to wake up. I must stay awake! If I fell back into that nightmare, I'll probably end up dead!

I checked my watch: 2pm. Time passes by much more slowly in dreams than it does in reality. One minute here is almost an hour in my nightmare, so this nightmare has been tormenting me for a couple of hours I guess? I need to find some sort of compensation for the pain I'd suffered just now. I stood up, realized I was naked, and then proceeded to look for clothes. I felt like I needed fresh air so I walked down to the first floor. It's chilly everywhere, and there's no Suh-hee. The Suh-hee who greeted me warmly every morning. Even the maid wasn't there - I'm alone in this big house.

It's the weekends so Suh-hee couldn't have brought the maid to visit her parents. Maybe they went out for a while? I noticed that the table had a few covered dishes on it. They probably did go out! Next to the dishes was a note. I opened up the covers. Ah, they look really delicious. These are all my favourite food! I licked my lips and then picked up the note...

"Do remember to warm up the food, and don't skip your meal just because I'm not there! Yunho and I have gone to our monthly couple gathering, which was supposed to be held next week but they changed it to today at the last minute. If we get home early, we'll eat together okay? - Suh-hee"

Her words swam in front of my eyes like musical notes. My mind tried to digest this piece of information, but because I was starving, I could only sit on the chair in a daze. Having to heat up to food is too troublesome! Might as well eat them as they are. I grabbed a spoon, scooped off the oil on top the beef stew, and started stirring.

As I lifted a spoonful to my mouth, I immediately put it down again. Ugh! I feel like throwing up! My appetite's all gone! Wanting to cry and vomit, that ball of feelings stuck in my throat were suffocating me...

"Sob..."

I pushed the dishes away in anger, and threw myself down on the table.

"Sniff... Damn it... Sob..."

I curled my hands into fists and banged the table, knocking the spoon to the floor. I listened to the soft chink it made with the ground, and then I grabbed a glass cup and hurled it to the wall without thinking. Ah, such a clean sound. I swept everything on the table to the floor, turning the kitchen into a mess. I grabbed the table edge and breathed heavily, ha ha....

When I realized my hands were stained with food, I went to wash them at the basin, crying all by myself. I held the tap and looked at the mess I'd created. Maybe I should clean up after all...

I bent down and crawled under the table, picking up the cutlery. As I tried to stand up...

"Ah!! Ouch! Damn it... sob..."

My head banged against the table edge and tears immediately welled up in my eyes. Curse this! I rubbed the bump on my head and rolled around on the floor in pain. Scraps of food started sticking to my shirt, sticking together like the memories in my mind.

All of a sudden I felt a wave of pain. I immediately stood up and bit my lips, staring at the painful spot. Blood was streaming down my forearm; looks like I'd cut myself on a piece of broken glass. It doesn't look too bad, but it hurts like crazy! I picked off the shard of glass. It felt itchy. The blood wouldn't stop flowing, and then the pain hit me again. I ran to the basin, took off my shirt and ran water all over my wound. Why won't the bleeding stop! I'm scared.

I laid a wet towel over my wound and it felt a lot better. Watching myself bleed like this was terrifying! Oh, right. I should bandage my wound! I supported myself using the walls and pillars and slowly edged to the bedroom to find a first aid kit. I felt myself calming down after I'd finished dressing my wound. Taking a deep breath, I thought about what I should eat, but the tears wouldn't stop. I can't just keep crying! Must eat something to replenish my strength. I returned to the chaotic kitchen, determined to clean up the mess and then make something for myself.

Just then, the phone rang...
