The Unseen | Kim Minju x Male Reader

Chapter 26

The two of them sat up on their own beds, with one thing in mind, as if it had synced.

Where is that voice coming from?

They could only stare at each other in fear, with the possibility of a ghost being in the middle of their presence. Not long after, Chaewon was also awoken due to the soft sob, asking Minju whether she's okay.

But of course, she isn't Chaewon's mouth also froze after realizing that the sound wasn't coming from neither of the other two. Y/N knew he couldn't just sit still, and stood up looking for the source of the voice. It led him to standing in front of Yuri's drawer, as it grew louder once he got closer to it.

He glanced at the girls, who already hid themselves under the blanket, bracing themselves for whatever might come out of it. Y/N reluctantly placed his hands on the grip, about to swing the door open after the count of three.

He ended up counting to ten before finally opening it and taking a step back, hoping whatever was in there didn't jump into his face and took his soul away. It took him a while before he could open his eyes and saw that there was a little girl inside, with her face buried into her knees.

It seems that she's been crying for a while, afraid of something that they don't know of. He was confused at what he's seeing at the moment, as he slowly got closer in order to interact with the girl.

Once he took a closer look, it seems that the little girl was around 9 to 10 years old, which is supposed to be in an elementary school. She wore a white gown over her body, with a doll being hugged tightly as if it would run the moment she lets go of it.

"Hello?" He called, before glancing at both Chaewon and Minju whose head popped up from under the blanket. "Why're you crying?"

She did not answer, as she kept on sobbing, ignoring his call. Both of the girls who were curious then got up from the bed.

"Who is she?" Chaewon asked. "Is she a ghost?"

"Doesn't look like she's a ghost. You can see her, can't you?"

"I can. But why is she in your sister's closet?"

"That I don't know." Chaewon decided to get closer to the little girl, as Minju decided to watch them from afar, still afraid of what seemed to possibly be a ghost.

"Hi. Don't be afraid. We're not going to hurt you." She reacted to the soft voice, as she lifted her head up and looked her in the eye.

"Who are you, and how did you end up in this closet?"

"I..." She spoke with a barely audible voice. They waited for her to continue her answer, yet she never continued.

"Come on, let's get you up-" Chaewon was about to take her hand when it passed through her body, making her startled. Y/N who also witnessed it couldn't believe what just happened, and attempted to do the same.

It was confusing enough that Chaewon wasn't able to take her by the hand. What made them more dumbfounded was that when it was Y/N who did it, it seemed like she was just a normal human. He was able to make contact with the little girl.

"How are you...?"

"Are you a wizard, Y/N?" Minju asked, finally speaking after the situation that just occurred.

"No I'm not. I'm as confused as you are." The girl started crying once more, afraid by the situation she's currently in.

"You two. Let's act calmly, okay? She must be confused and scared right now." They nodded before finally sitting on the floor, calming her down.
