Who Is It? | Treasure | SukHoon

29|He Is Possessed

The door shut closed and Jihoon was left alone in the room.

Junkyu, Jeongwoo and Hyunsuk left him. The three headed towards the lounge area for their movie night.

Jihoon was quick in changing his shirt. He took off the sweaty and dusty shirt he was wearing and then picked out a new clean one from his wardrobe then quickly changed into it. He patted on his clothes to get rid of any dust that could be there. Just as he finished, he was startled by a sudden noise of something falling onto the floor with a clamouring sound. He quickly turned around to see what it was and saw a peculiar object lying on their floor.

It was the planchette which Hyunsuk hid on his bed.

Jihoon didn't know where it fell from. He didn't know how it got there and why it was there. He was curious and confused of what it particularly was so he picked it up.

Jihoon observed it. Turning it over and over to see what it was as he runs his fingers over its rough wooden surface. He saw the circular lense attached to the very center. Upon seeing it, he had this sudden voice whispering in his ear that told him to look through the glass, and he did. He placed it closed to his face, with one eye closed and one eye looking through the glass. Jihoon looked around all over their room through the glass. Nothing unlikely or out of the ordinary was happening. It made Jihoon think it was just nothing special. But before he could put it down, he caught something move fast in his range of sight.

Jihoon quickly pulled away from the planchette to look around the room to see what it was he saw.

There was nothing.

He carefully placed it back up to his face to look through the glass again. There was nothing again. However, he was intent on finding what he saw through the glass, so he kept on turning around while still looking through it. When Jihoon reached the area where his bed was, he was startled by a black shadowy figure standing there. The figure didn't stay still but quickly came running at him and just as if like air, it ran passed through him. Jihoon gasped and cursed silently, letting go immediately of the planchette. It fell to the floor with a resounding noise of wood meeting the tiled floor. Although the figure vanished, he was sure he felt it was still there with him. Jihoon placed a hand over his right eye as there was an excruciating pain similar to something like a sharp needle was brutally poked through his eye. The sudden pain caused tears to flow out both of his eyes, but mostly from the eye that was hurt.

Jihoon started to panic. He was afraid the pain would last longer, or worse, bring negative effects to his eyesight.

However, the pain soon disappeared like it never existed in the first place. Jihoon slowly put his hand away from his eye and looked around over the room to check if the pain had caused him to become blind. He observed his eyesight remained the same. He could still see very well. He blinked his eyes.

"Jihoona!! We're about to start watching the movie. What's taking you so long?! Come on! Ugh! I can't believe we're gonna be watching another horror movie." Junkyu's complaining voice echoed very distantly through his ears along with the impatient knocking on their door.

Jihoon was startled by the sudden loud noise caused by Junkyu. He snapped out of his thoughts to rid of his worry. He was going to turn around and reply but he wobbled side to side as he shook his head from the sudden dizziness that engulfed his vision. He didn't get to reply to Junkyu for he felt a chill lick at his spine and a discomforting feeling suddenly reside in his stomach. And then, he wasn't sure but he seemed to hear a hush voice spoke.

'...Mine...'

The voice didn't seem to come whispering near his ears but it seemed to reside in his head. Jihoon placed a hand over his throbbing temples, shutting his eyes close and wishing the unpleasant feelings away.The urge to vomit made him dizzier as he tried his best to hold it back.
