CURSED : The Blue Eyed Maiden [ BTS FF ]

Chapter 71

Seonghwa's Pov

I froze. It was as if my body was paralyzed. I couldn't move a muscle. Everything was happening in slow motion, just like that day.

Was it guilt? I didn't know.

Fear filled me as I felt the instant deja vu moment, eerily crawling under my skin. I panicked but I couldn't do anything. Just like that day.

How long will I be a bystander? How long will I stay silent? How long will I cower and be that same weak person , the side character whose existence doesn't change anything in the story?

How long?

I could help Ara Choi back then. I was a coward in the shell of someone popular, loved by everyone. A coward who froze when I had the opportunity to save her. . .

Only if I had took a step and saved her that day-

This is all my fault. It was never her fault. It was me. It was us. Fuck. .   Fuck. . . Fuck J.J NOT NOW

There's no time for me to think about past. No way. . . I have to save her. In this world , it's just us who have eachother. I want to help her. I have to help her. No matter what.

That's the only way back home.

Maybe by helping her, I'd feel a little less guilty? But will that be enough for me to save her? Does she even alive in 20XX ? Am I alive in 20XX?

SNAP OUT J.J this isn't the time to think about that. What happened. . . happened. Now your first priority. . . is her, Han Kyung.

I snapped out of my thoughts. Even though it felt like few minutes, in reality it was just a few seconds. I balled my fists and swallowed nervously before taking long steps towards the princess.

"HAN KYUNG?" someone screamed behind me but I didn't pay much attention, I dropped on my knees, holding her slumped trembling body, pulling her into a hug.

I was confused. She was crying but also laughing at the same time, shaking in my arms, she was acting like a maniac. I was scared. I can't afford to lose her again. No. . . no. . please.

"What happened , what happened? Choi Ara? Ara-ah. . . Hey hey. . . SNAP OUT!!" I yelled at her. Was this a panic attack? All of a sudden? What triggered her?

The crowd started forming around us. Two very familiar faces appeared from the crowd , worried all over the person in my embrace.

Park Jimin. . .

"I d-don't know. . . I don't remember anything . . . nothing. . everything feels unreal . . I just. . want to go back, please." She whispered in my ear, hugging me tightly, before loosing my conscious in his arm.

"HAN KYUNG ??? hey hey . . . ugh" I glanced at her lady in waiting and getting her permission, I lifted Ara up in my arms.

"Let me carry-" Jimin got interrupted by me as I turned my gaze to the three of them before speaking.

"My place is close by, It's the best option right now. Someone fetch the local doctor and you ladies can follow me." I spoke politely yet hurrying, pacing away from the market area.
