Previews

"Listen to me. I'm not gonna take you this fast. It's too easy for me. I just want to play around with you and your friends first." The man said with an unusually cold breath. The blueness began to fade.

"You make sure all your friends are safe..." The man returned. He moved away from So Hyun's shoulder and the girl's ear. Then, he smiled cunningly.

The man opened the curtains of the hospital room and opened the window as well. He let the sunlight go inside.

Instantly, So Hyun could feel his body moving back. His heart is beating again too. Seeing that So Hyun was able to move, the man jumped out of the window. The window is on the 11th floor.

So Hyun clasped his own hands and his head felt heavy.

Jimin and Taehyung are sitting in the cafeteria with their new sunbae, Kim Namjoon. The three of them just sat down while drinking their hwachae.

Although the three of them had time to mince words, now they were silent in their respective activities. Jimin just drank his hwachae without saying anything. Taehyung thought of the situation of something strange in his feelings. The feeling of not wearing a heart continued to be felt.

Eun Soo, who had returned as usual, came to the men. He took a seat a short distance away from Taehyung, Namjoon, including Jimin. He feels awkward. The three men were serious with their own thoughts.

In the middle of their residence, Namjoon pulled out a book. Then, he began to read it. Eun Soo who heard the sound of friction turned the pages of the book, turned her head straight towards Namjoon. The girl squinted her eyes to look at the cover of the book in detail

"That's the same book as So Hyun." Eun Soo said while pointing towards Namjoon.

Taehyung and Jimin turned towards Namjoon at the same time. Jimin stared with seriousness, while Taehyung was flat.

Consciously noticed by the others, Namjoon stared at them one by one. The man immediately looked at the cover of his own book with a puzzled look.

"Namjoon sunbae, where did you get that book?" ask Eun Soo again.

Namjoon stared at the cover of his book at a glance, then replied, "Ah... This book I got in my old school." He seems busy answering Eun Soo's questions.

"What was that book sold?" sahut Jimin's.

"No." replied Namjoon briefly.

"Then why did your school get that book?" serdik Taehyung's.

"I don't know. My teacher gave this book to me." replied Namjoon casually. "Why indeed?"

Eun Soo shifts her seat closer towards Jimin. The noise from the other students who had just come out to go home made Namjoon's voice difficult to hear.

"Your book is the same as So Hyun's." Eun Soo said for sure. "What's the title?"

Namjoon glanced back at the cover of the book. "Mollas. It says 'Muertte."

"Muertte's? Even though the cover and thickness are the same, why is the title different?" Jimin straightened his body.

"What is the book So Hyun has called?" tanya Taehyung who did not understand what the three people were talking about.

"Look, Namjoon sunbae and So Hyun's book are the same. However, the title is different. Namjoon Sunbae's property is titled 'Muertte' while So Hyun's property is only titled 'La'" Eun Soo explained slowly.

Hearing the mention of the word 'La' from Eun Soo's mouth, Namjoon immediately fell silent.

He felt like he was stuck with something. It was like he felt something related to those two words. Seeing Namjoon's strange reaction, Taehyung immediately looked at Namjoon with a slight sneer.

"Sunbae, why is it stuck?" serdik Taehyung just like that.

Namjoon immediately regained his senses and turned towards Taehyung. He cleared his throat slowly, then straightened his body. He felt attacked by difficult questions. He was unable to answer Taehyung's simple questions quickly. The man entered the book silently, while continuing to cleared his throat.

"Sun-bae?" call Eun Soo slowly.

Namjoon sighed, "Ah, no. I'm it's okay. I'm just. You said, this book is the same as So Hyun. However, different titles. I don't know either." Namjoon is seen scratching the back of his head while smiling stiffly. A smile that instantly showed her dimples.

"Sunbae sure?" ask Eun Soo. "Sunbae looks like a panic."

"I'm fine. Really." Namjoon tried hard to deny.

Taehyung was still staring at Namjoon suspiciously, as was Jimin.

Taehyung's piercing gaze, as if making Namjoon stay away from that gaze. Jimin is like that too. However, a smile of Jimin's lies seemed to cover up his feelings of betrayal. So that man looks ordinary.

"Then I go home first. Anybody want to come walk together to the stop?" Eun Soo immediately switched the conversation.

"Alright, come on." Eun Soo unsuspectingly asked like her two friends. "Jimin-ah, Taehyung-ah, I went home first, huh? If you want to see So Hyun again, say hello to him."

Jimin only replied with a nod and a wave of his hand. Taehyung also just nodded.

The two men still felt suspicious of Namjoon who looked so gnawed and panicked. Knowing that Eun Soo and Namjoon had disappeared behind the lobby, Jimin turned to Taehyung.

"Yes. I can read the thoughts from the look on your face." Jimin said.

"You mean?" tanya Taehyung with a frowning forehead.

"Don't pretend to be stupid. Not only women can read the minds of their friends, men can. Without you denying it with a lie and a sure face, I have the same thoughts as you." explained Jimin, then drank his remaining hwachae a little more.

"Don't be silly. What do you know about what I have in mind?" taehyung denied.

"You're denying, right? Never mind, Taehyung-ah, I know what's on your mind." said Jimin with a slightly cynical smile.

"What?" taehyung asked with a disrespectful expression.

"You were suspicious of Namjoon's attitude?" Jimin sneers at Taehyung just like that.

His dedication instantly made Taehyung speechless. "I also think like that. But, we can't be so bad, can we?"

Taehyung cleared his throat slowly. He pretended to fix his school coat and tie. The man slightly ruffled his hair by muttering, "Yes. Of course..."

Eun Soo opens her door with a smile on her lips. However, he felt something strange about the state of his home.

It looks like an empty house. The door hinge was also broken. His home page is already up. Potted plants have been rolled everywhere. The front door of his house was also wide open. Seeing all that, his carefree smile disappeared just like that.

The house he lived in with his mother looked like it had been robbed. The front glass of the house also broke, then opened wide. Eun Soo instantly let go of her bag grip with a lunglai. The girl closed her mouth, and ran into the house. She knew she must be home when this robbery happened.

'Eomma, eodiga?'

Without taking off her school shoes, Eun Soo runs into her house. The house was like a broken ship. His family's collection jars were also destroyed on the floor. There was no one in the house. The whole room in the house looked very dark. Eun Soo does not see her mother in the house.

The girl walked into the kitchen. As he walked towards the kitchen, there was a fishy smell of blood. Eun Soo's hands begin to tremble in fear, she doesn't dare to enter the kitchen of the house herself. However, he gulped his saliva and was determined. Finally, he put his foot into the kitchen.

Eun Soo's eyes were perfect. The girl covered her mouth and nose with both hands. The fishy smell of fresh blood that was so stinging, too piercing his sense of smell.

The girl stared at her mother's helpless corpse, with half-covered eyes. Eun Soo started to make a screaming voice. He could not believe that his mother was lying so stiff.

"Welcome home, Eun Soo-ah." Sound from the bathroom. A pretty familiar female voice.

Eun Soo looked at the bathroom door. He began to step back. However, the figure of the owner of the voice had raised his figure.

Fear begins to overwhelm Eun Soo's feelings. The girl was so dumbstruck, scared and trembling. Plus, the figure before him was so sinister.

"You know. hahaha.. I've been waiting for you.." said the girl again with a very strange laughing voice.

Eun Soo shook her head quickly. He continued to walk backwards, but the girl continued to approach.

When Eun Soo takes one more step back, she stumbles over the urn of antic whose position is still rolled. The girl who had the strange sound of laughter laughed out loud. The bangs that covered his entire face were smashed. And the head is always tilted to the side. Eun Soo can already feel her tears ready to come out.

The girl's laughter grew. The girl said, "Hello, Eun Soo-ah. Aren't we friends? Why are you scared like that?" The girl started to say while lifting her bangs up.

Eun Soo stared at the action of lifting the girl's bangs. While raising the bangs, the girl laughed out loud in a shrill voice.

"Mii... Mi... So?" peek at Eun Soo with a frightened voice.
