A Look Into the Past

An Iron Heart made of Glass

[ I opened my eyes and bright light greeted me by blinding my eyes ]

[ I wasn't dead... }

[ I turned my head to the side watching the IV connected to my arm drip. ]

[ My eyes burned and my heart hurt ]

[ 'Why just, why couldn't they just let me -' ]

The door to the room slid open and a nurse walked in cutting off his thoughts. She gave him a brief summary of his condition and that he could be discharged in a week if he healed fast enough.

For two days Dokja laid in bed staring at the ceiling numb as tears from the corners of his eyes, fell. He would question himself over and over Why? Why was he still alive? If he had jumped from a higher place could he have died?' On the third day, he picked up his phone and opened it to find a webpage already there. Attached were the words 'Ways of Survival' a novel. He looked at the screen with his puffy red eyes and didn't question how it got there, instead, he started to read.

[ I read each chapter and read them again and again... ]

[ Ways of survival was a lifeline that pulled me out of the ocean's violent currents ]

[ It saved me ]

[ Constellation Demon-Like Judge of Fire is tearing up ]

[ Constellation Abyssal Black Flame Dragon feels oddly fluffy ]

It was night and Kim Dokja was sitting on a bench alone in a dimly lit park.

[ Jonghyuk is the Ultimate Sunfish ]

The light from the screen of the phone illuminated his face as he chuckled at the thought. He typed in a quick comment for the author and headed back home. He opened the door slowly, Careful not to make a sound locking the door behind him. When a loud snore sounded from the living room he flinched holding his breath, as he tip-toed over to his room/.

[I went to bed that night thinking 'If only I could be as strong as Yoo Jonghyuk']

"Haha! " Sooyoung busted out cackling with Jung Heewon right with her, Even Ji His own disciple Jihye betrayed him who was trying her best to hold back her laughter. Jonghyuk tsked but didn't say anything else. Yoo Sangah the closest to him from her spot on the couch didn't miss the way his ears were slightly tinted pink. She gave him an all-knowing smile while chuckling to herself.

[ Constellation Secretive Plotter is amused by incarnation 'The ultimate Sunfish' nickname ]

At this, almost everyone's laughter exploded.

[ Constellation Abyssal Black Flame Dragon says that incarnation 'the ultimate sunfish' should calm down ]

[ Constellation Queen of the Darkest Spring Finds the nickname is endearing ]

[ Constellation Demon- Like Judge of Fire is wheezing ]

After their laughter Died down and Dokja was studying in a classroom Gilyoung mumbled.

"Why would Hyung want to be like the sooty bastard?"

Han Sooyoung would never let the chance to mock Kim Dokja or Yoo Jonghyuk pass, this was no exception either.

"He is the one he loves the most. It wouldn't be weird if little dokja wanted to be like him." She said while side eying the regressor with her peripheral vision. The said regressor let out a huff.
