"I- I can't breathe..." Chaeyoung puffed as she woke up, clumping her chest.

Looking at her own hands, it was tainted with red blood that made her lose her mind.

"Aaaah!!" Chaeyoung shouts as she panics, her sweat falls on every part of her face.

She just killed Mina out of jealousy.

Chaeyoung then went inside her comfort room, washing every blood she could see but it was no use.

The stain wasn't coming off.

Looking in front of the mirror, Chaeyoung saw herself in the worst condition she could ever imagine.

"N-No... I didn't do it..." She whispered as she looked back at herself.

Earlier, only her hands were covered in blood but now,

Her whole body is.

"This can't be..."

Chaeyoung rushed out of the bathroom and looked around.

Everything seems normal, only herself wasn't.

Chaeyoung wanted to make sure—what's reality and what's not—but as soon as she got closer and closer to the door, her body started to weaken.

Her sight was all becoming blurry. She couldn't support herself any longer so she went to her bedside table.

Dull.

Everything was becoming dim.

Chaeyoung couldn't hear or see.

She once again felt the shortness of breathing.

Everything was just...

Turning into nothing.

It's as if all of her hope and light was gone.

Chaeyoung gripped the table, making the vase fall from it and it made a loud sound.

The sound woke her up from her nightmare.

Chaeyoung looked at herself once again.

Everything looked normal in just a blink.

No blood, no nothingness, no nightmares.

The vase was the only proof that all of her delusions happened.

Chaeyoung bent down, hugging herself. The torment she's been having every night has become worse.


Of course, she expected this but not to this extent.


Denying turned into anger.


Chaeyoung stood up, breaking all of the things she could see. Hoping that, it would make her wake up from every bad dream she's been having.

She shouts, as if there was an emergency. She made noises out of everything she could see.

Her and the dreams have become one; that's what she was afraid of.

This time, her dream wasn't an ordinary dream that Mina and her just fell apart.

It was much worse.

She had killed Mina after having those nightmares from the very beginning.


“A dream inside a dream.”


Chaeyoung was lost. Everything in her mind was out of reach. She couldn't pinpoint the real reason for all of these.
