Vienna
40. See You In Daegu's.


Reyna didn't even know why she was on the Han River bridge at nine o'clock. As he remembered, he only wanted to be here, that was all.


The cup americano that accompanied him for thirty minutes ago was empty. Cold air also began to pierce his face which was staring freely at the vast stretch of river in Seoul.


A flash of memory of the father again overflowed.


The water is Rey's silent killer! Once you get in there, you're gonna have a hard time getting out because you're a kid! So remember my message, never play by the sea or the river alone! Understood?!


"I know father." his murmur was still fixed on the stretch of river before him. "But dad, why do I suddenly want to go in there so badly? "


Pieces of smile and the worried face of the father came back, making Reyna think back to her words. Disappointed to feel defeated by something that even just became his shadow.


Reyna walked away from there, and returned to the apartment. The streets are still crowded even though it is night with unusually cold temperatures. Maybe the weekend is the answer.


His steps stopped back. His brain was filled with all sorts of sickening memories. Reyna gave a rough sigh. "True, tomorrow the party will take place! " his speech refers to a sacred event of the union of two persons in sacred bondage, Val and HaNa.


"But who will accompany me to come there? Hyuji already has John to take him there! " Reyna chuckled, feeling silly with herself. How could he end up like this? Everyone went away from him, leaving him for no definite reason. Hyuji also never once replied to the message he secretly sent because he felt homesick for his best friend.


Pressing the passcode, the apartment door was opened automatically. Reyna took off her shoes and rushed to her laptop which was perched sweetly on the table in the room. His fingers were typing agilely there. Sometimes he also felt tired and did small stretches.


"Ah, totally exhausting... "


He felt relieved that he had already managed to type in a few words that he thought were perfect. Glanced at the wall clock and saw the needle was at the number one in the morning.


"It actually takes a long time to type that! " he muttered as he covered his evaporating mouth, the manic began to feel hot. He rushed to send that type to an email address he had memorized out of his head.


And the smile expands when on the laptop screen is visible, said SEND.


He went to reach for his phone, he also had time to add a new number on his phone earlier. Then he typed once again, on his phone.


Hyu, it's me. Reyna's.


Sorry to bother you with the new provider number because you never returned my message at my old number.


I'm sure you'll be upset and sorry after you get this message from me.


I just wanted to say that I sent a message in your email.


Please read it, and meet me in your daegu.


Reyna hesitated, but with a heavy heart pressed the green button at the end of the text board.


Send...


Success.


Reyna stood up and headed for the nightstand, picking up the white bottle that was inside. Then walk to the refrigerator to get a glass of water.


Reyna looked back at the bottle in her hand and hesitated, taking out a large amount of the grain and swallowing it all at once. His breath gasped for reneging on his promise to himself as well as his confidant. Hyuji. But bitter when knowing Hyuji had already thrown it away.


"Sorry Hyu... This time I won't trouble anyone! You won't care about me anymore, will you? I hope you live happily with John! And for Val, you too, may a happy life be with your choice! " Reyna monologues. Not waiting for the seconds to turn around more, Reyna walked towards the bathroom and turned on the shower. Cowering under the cold water and letting the water carry the kuyub on its body, in the middle of the night of the snowy season.


Maybe, for others, it was a bad choice, but Reyna did.


"I will do it quietly without making anyone miserable, you are quite present in your daegu, and we will meet there Hyu..."


As her father said back then, about water, Reyna's waiting will all be over soon.

Hyuji wriggled behind the blanket because of his vibrating phone. Thinking that John was texting her because her husband had not been back at one o'clock last night, she went with her friend to work on a work project since eight o'clock last night.


However, his drowsiness was not strong enough for him to endure. Grabbing the phone and taking a quick look if the message came from a number that the sender didn't know, Hyuji snorted in annoyance. Remember a few days ago he also got a message from an unknown number offering him a Honeymoon package. He also wondered where the man knew his cell phone number and he was married.


"Yelisssh... !!!" he was upset while throwing his phone back on the nightstand.


"Just kill you who send messages in the middle of the night like this!!! Damnit damnit!! " he cursed once again.


The message was forgotten with a curse and a vile oath. Hyuji didn't even see the message that clearly mentioned Reyna's name there.


Hyu, it's me. Reyna's. []
