Engene's Book [Ongoing]

5. Catch!

"Then, show us! Kill one of us. To show that this is just a story you've made!" Heeseung shouted. Daniel, who was at Heeseung's back looking terrified.

"But, I can't..." I said, I actually can't kill one of them.

"Oh, why? Because you can't actually do it?!" Heeseung shouted again. Jay went to Heeseung's front and tried to protect him.

What have I done?

"No!"

"THEN, WHY? TELL US, JIYOUNG. IF THAT IS YOUR REAL NAME."

"BECAUSE I NEED YOU GUYS, IDIOTS."

Jiyoung woke up in a shocked way. She breathed hardly as she thought the dream was real.

"Oh my gosh, Jiyoung. You're sweating so much! Are you okay?" Daniel, who was sitting beside Jiyoung, said.

She looked back at Daniel who we can tell that he was worried by just looking into his eyes. Now, they were switching parts. Jiyoung was more worried about Daniel than he worried about her.

"Are you okay?" Jiyoung asked. Daniel looked shocked as he didn't expect Jiyoung to ask him that question.

"Y-Y-Yeah? Shouldn't I be the one who asks you if you're fine or not?" Daniel asked. She brushed her hair and her face. She was actually sweating so hard.

"Wow, I'm sweating so much." Jiyoung said, trying to change the topic. 

"Told you." Daniel said. Suddenly, Jay was in front of the purple room's door.

"Daniel, it's time. Oh, Jiyoung woke up. Get ready- wait, Jiyoung woke up? GUYS, JIYOUNG WOKE UP!" Jay smiled brightly and ran outside. Jiyoung was stunned to speak.

"Everyone... was waiting for you to wake up, you know?" Daniel said, coming closer to her. Suddenly, he stopped. "Sorry. I shouldn't come closer to you."

"No, no. It's okay." Jiyoung looked down.  Daniel titled his head, trying to look at Jiyoung.

"W-Why are you so sad?" 

"I- Nothing-! I'm not sad. Just..." She was scratching her head that doesn't itch. "It happens again."

"You mean... You didn't faint for the first time?" 

"No- I mean yes. But- I mean. It's not the first time I saw that thing. A black thing that when I look at it, I will be weak and faint." Jiyoung turned to Daniel. She was scared. Daniel was confused.

"Do you know what that is?" Daniel asked. Before Jiyoung could answer, someone cut into their conversation.

"Of course she don't know what that is, Daniel. If she knew, she won't fainted." Seon walked into the room. Daniel stopped talking. Daniel didn't want to say anything afterwards.

"Where are you guys going?" Jiyoung asked Seon. Seon smiled to her.

"It's our time to show the producer our vocal and the ability to dance." Seon said. Daniel stood up and left. Jiyoung looked at Daniel. She jumped out the bed and went to Daniel.

"Idiot." Seon, who was left in the purple room alone, said. "Why do people like Daniel so much?" He rolled his eyes and went to the door. He closed the light and closed the door.

Jiyoung ran to the living room. No one. The kitchen. No one. The blue room, the green room. No one. "Where is everyone?" She asked herself. She can't even find Daniel. 

She went to the transparent site on the floor. She was everyone was there, looking handsome as the prince charming. She saw Daniel. He looked anxious. Why?
