The Ghost on the Yeonhui-dong Street

I cared about you

RYUJIN

It was already 2:25 AM and i'm still crying. Even if i say "I'm Fine" it can't change the fact that i've been looking for a Parents love. While i'm crying, i suddenly realized something. It was me, i am the one who's cursing Yeji for the whole time, it was me who's asking God to make the person who caused the accident pay.

I am the reason why Yeji's still sleeping. Suddenly, i heard someone's knocking on my door....

"Don't open the door, Ryujin...I can still hear you, i'll take this as a time to explain everything. I want you to listen to me and understand me...."

I sit on the ground then i leaned on the door...

"...listen to me, Ryujin...Yes, it was me...i am the reasons why your Parents died, it's okay if you'll start cursing me...i don't care anymore. I want you to know the whole story...That day, i went to University and get my result...Ryujin—I passed, I passed the exam...but while i'm walking on the way to bus stop...i saw a kitten that is in the middle of the road...When i tried to save it, i side forward my hands and tried to stop the car but the car was too close to stop that's why they turned left to avoid me but the next car hit me so bad...."

I can hear Yeji trying to stop herself from crying then she suddenly told me....

"...R-Ryujin...Everything that i said was true...and the next words that i'm gonna say, it is also true...I have no friends because i thought people are boring—i have no friends because all of them are complicated...but the time that i spent alone on the Yeonhui-dong Street...i started looking for someone to talk to then after a months, i found you...You lied when you said you wanted to get rid of me, you lied when you told me that you don't wanna see me anymore....i can see you smiling when we're talking to each other...that's why i started falling inlove with you and falling for you was the greatest thing that happened in my life...."

While i'm listening to Yeji, I looked up at my ceiling and started crying again, especially when i heard her saying this....

"...I know in the first place when i remembered everything that it was you who's cursing me but i don't mind it as long as it was you...I don't know if you can forgive me but i want you to know that you will be forever part of me."

After that, i never heard Yeji again.

When i opened my eyes, i was lying down on the ground and Jeongyeon Unnie was cleaning the mess....

"Take it easy....step by step...count one to three and breathe deeply...."

Jeongyeon Unnie was always like this when she's motivating me, she's cleaning anything. When i went outside my bedroom, Yeji was not there anymore. Jeongyeon Unnie let me sit on the sofa then she started cleaning my wound on my head....

"Ryujin...you're still young...i know you can do everything..."

I smiled at her and asked her....

"Can we visit Mom and Dad?"

When we're already there, i tried to talk to Mom and Dad....

"Mom? Dad? Is it okay to forgive the person who put you in that position? Am i weird? because i'm actually inlove with her too..."

Suddenly, Jeongyeon Unnie tapped my back and told me....

"Your Mom and Dad will be the happiest Parents if they saw you smiling."

While we're praying, i suddenly remember Lia...

"U-Unnie??? C-Can you drive me to the University?"

It's already 4:25 PM, while we're on our way i opened my phone because it was turned off since last night....

"68 Missed Calls...."
