The Marrying The Grim Reaper
Chapter 18: BREZEEEE

Six o'clock in the morning Seoul time.

Gyu-Sik is preparing provisions to be taken up the mountain, while Yumi is still bathing.

“Aaah Gyu-Sik still doesn't like Yumi's idea of mountain climbing.

“Yak! How many hundred times do you want to grumble yourself about climbing a mountain? I told you I don't want to be alone. After all, I usually climb the mountain myself, so it doesn't matter.” Yumi sat on the dining chair while drying her hair with a towel.

Gyu-Sik does not speak of Yumi.

“Already ready, I take a shower first.” Gyu-Sik goes to the bathroom.

“Ckckck.

After all the preparations are done Yumi and Gyu-Sik head to the bus stop to get to the mountain which is located a little far from Yumi's house.

“Waaah.. I really did not expect I finally set foot on the mountain slope again.” Gyu-Sik distributes panangan, the atmosphere is beautiful on the slopes of the mountain brings its own coolness.

“Again? When have you ever climbed a mountain?” Yumi asked as she re-stropped her shoelaces.

“Two hundred seventy years ago.”

“Hahahaha.” Yumi laughed off hearing a fact that sounded like a joke to her.

“Why laugh?”

“Sorry. sorry.”.

“Wah.. You must be a newly married couple huh?” Suddenly a middle-aged woman with her husband comes to Yumi and Gyu-Sik.

“Ah.. no we are not..” Yumi. “Iya.. we haven't been married long.” Simultaneously Gyu-Sik chimed in on Yumi's answer.

“Aigo.. You're still shy about admitting it?” The middle-aged woman held onto Yumi's arm, yet Yumi only gave a small smile.

“Millions is indeed an activity that is very suitable for couples, because climbing the mountain will feel fun when done with people we care about. If when climbing we are hit by a disaster at least there is someone next to us.” The middle-aged woman said as she wrapped her hands in the hands of her husband.

Yumi and Gyu-Sik just smile they don't know what to respond to.

“Then we walk first.” The middle-aged woman and husband walk ahead of Yumi and Gyu-Sik.

“Come road.” Bring Gyu-Sik.

Eventually Yumi and Gyu-Sik begin to enter the mountain slope area. Climbers on this mountain are never lonely.

"Many people like to climb mountains." Gyu-sik.

"Indeed, you're the odd one not to like fun activities like this."

"Emm. Not dislike, when I was a human my hobby was to climb mountains. Uh. no, I like to climb mountains when I'm on a date with my girlfriend." A happy light flashed on Gyu-Sik's face.

'Love??' The word is enough to shock Yumi, she does not expect that Gyu-Sik ever had a lover.

"Oh. You've had a boyfriend."

"Of course, it's you." 

PLAQUE..

"Aww. yak! pain Lee Yumi." Gyu-Sik stroked his arm that was hit by Yumi.

"Ever had a boyfriend just proud, chh.." Yumi sneered at Gyu-Sik.

"Proud dong, than never had a boyfriend, at least I've had a love story once."

"Hahaha, only once is a date proud."

"If I'm interested, I can have a hundred lovers, even more, but I choose to have relationships with only women who make my life feel different.

When I was with him I was myself, he was able to make me take off the mask I had to wear." Gyu-Sik tells a little about his past.

"Mask??"

"That's figurative meaning don't you imagine a mask as a real face mask." 

"Huh.. You think I don't understand?? I am a writer of course I understand the meaning of such a figure." Yumi felt unacceptable.

"It's good that you understand."

Some time they do not talk to each other they focus on the climbing terrain that begins to feel uphill and draining.

"Yumi. hahh.. tung.gu. rest.." first." Gyu-Sik who was left behind Yumi sat under the tree then opened the bag to grab a drink.

"Ckckck.it's only a quarter of the way. The spirit of dong!" Yumi Shouted.

"Aren't you tired?"

Yumi shook her head and walked again.

"Yumi wait for me." Gyu-Sik runs after Yumi.

After climbing for more than three hours they arrived at the top of the mountain.

"Yes you're right, from the top of the mountain seeing a scene like this reminds me of the old days." 

'First time? Reminds you of your lover, right? Ch.h..' Inner Yumi.

Yumi is taking in the scenery with her phone camera, while Gyu-Sik sits down while enjoying the drinks and supplies she prepared.

"You're not hungry? My kimbab is delicious." Gyu-sik.

"No." Yumi was still busy photographing and recording the scenery from the top of the mountains.

"Eat first, you've put out a lot of energy." Gyu-Sik puts the kimbab in Yumi's mouth.

Yumi resigned herself, she finally ate the kimbab that made her mouth full.

Suddenly the sirens of danger sounded.

“Sorry to the mountaineering troupe, we just got a wind and heavy rain warning that is expected to start in about forty minutes. Therefore mountaineers please follow our directions to immediately go down to the nearest post and wait for the next instruction.” Nature guards and SAR teams came to help climbers down the mountain.

“Hahhh.. it's a pity that I just got to.” Yumi was still not satisfied at the top of the mountain.

“Virulent once why suddenly cloudy?” Gyu-sik.

“It's been how else we have to follow the direction of the nature guard.” Yumi reluctantly followed the officers and other climbers to rush down towards the nearest post.

There are eleven climbers including Yumi and Gyu-Sik who are forced to descend the mountain.

The heavy rain had already preceded coming before they reached the post.

“Please be careful because the ground will become slippery if it rains heavily like this, just two more kilos to get to the post, hang on. Please take care of each other.” Shouted one of the nature guards.

Gyu-Sik holds Yumi's hand.

GLUDEKKK…..

RRRRRSHHH…

The rumbling sound of lightning began to strike, the rain also fell increasingly heavy.

‘What's so weird why suddenly the weather turns gloomy?’ Gyu-sik Inner.

After traveling about fifteen minutes finally the group of climbers who had to be evacuated to the post.

Officers handed out towels to all climbers. The rain is getting heavier, the lightning and the wind are getting worse.

“You okay?” Ask Gyu-Sik while drying Yumi's hair with his towel.

“Yeah! You use the towel first, I'll already be.”

“I brought a towel from home.”

“Waaah. lest you know it will rain this great?” 

“No, my ability is still not back.”

“Hacimmmm... hacimmm.” Yumi sneezing.

“Any cold huh?” Gyu-Sik rubs his hands and attaches them to Yumi's cheeks.

“Sorry this is all we have, hopefully can warm you all.” Officers distributed warm ginger water and roasted yam to all climbers.

“Sorry sir, until when is this bad weather forecast?” Ask a climber.

“Our side of the weather control agency and the head office of the nature swaka has not been able to confirm. The weather suddenly changed drastically, and strangely this extreme weather only happened around the mountains. So let's pray that the weather returns to normal.” Obviously a nature guard.

Hopefully anxious all the climbers and officers caught in the rain waited at the post. But until the night of rain, the wind and lightning did not subside, on his arrival they all stayed at the post.

Officers split sleeping bags to all climbers. 

Some climbers have a fever there are also those who start the flu because the temperature is getting lower, including Yumi.

Yumi is already asleep in a sleeping bag, several times Gyu-Sik checks Yumi's fever which fortunately is not too high. But the flu that started attacking Yumi got worse.

Before going to bed Gyu-Sik almost never let go of his embrace on Yumi's body due to shivering in the cold.

“Hahh.. eventually she sleeps too.” Gyu-Sik muttered while looking at Yumi.

“Just relax he won't die.” 

Gyu-Sik looks up when he hears a voice he is very familiar with.

BREZEEEEEE...!!!

All stopped, Dong-Bong uses his powers to stop time and everything in the mountainous region.

The rain stopped, the lightning that struck the sparkle still emanated also stopped, the people in the post did not move them like statues, like a video that was stopped, he said, only Gyu-Sik and Dong-Bong remain as usual.

“Timjangnim?” Gyu-Sik shocked.
