"I'm back again..." Min Yun Gu whispered to himself as he stood in the middle of his overly large house. He stared at everything in it, the awards he collected, the photos he had taken, the immense amount of objects he owned. He stared at everything, and felt nothing. She wasn't there... and that meant that all this was worthless.

He checked the date on his phone: Monday 20 April Year 2020

"So we are starting here again... why is this date so important?" he sighed as he walked to his closet. He changed out of his blood stained clothes and through them in his hamper. He had failed to save her again... He walked into the shower and washed the reminisce of the last world off of himself. As he washed his hair, he saw the purple marks on his wrist.

"This time... this time I will make this world work... I will save her, and we will all be happy... I don't want us to go back to the world we came from. So this time, you will make this work." he thought to himself.

Looking at three marks on his wrist again, he decided that if the next attempt failed, he would use his last two attempts to just return them all to their original world... so he really had to make this try count, because he knew he would be miserable in the world he came from.

Yun Gu quickly got dressed and realized he was running late. He wasn't sure what he was running late to, but his internal clock told him it was time to go. He threw on his clothes as quickly as he could and walked out of his apartment.

He walked briskly, eager to see her... eager to hold her... eager, to make things right and keep them from their old world where they both suffered.
