I took a few days off of school and work. Mom and dad still haven't returned from where they are. Jae Hyun comes in often but ignores me and then leaves after.

But at some point I went back to school, alone. Eyes were on me, Ha Joon ignored me and Ae Cha followed along.

I really hate living amongst these people.

I ran into Seung Ho. "Oh, Seung Ho" Seung Ho kept a straight face "where were you?" Seung Ho asked "oh, I needed some space from everything" I smiled nervously, Seung Ho took a minute but walked around me.

Always running into him.

SEUNG HO'S POV

School finally ended and I headed home. Seo Joon walked up to me, "what?" I asked him, he was handing me his phone. "It's them," I sighed and took the phone.

"Hello," "Seung Ho, son" it was mother. I stayed quiet for awhile "hello?" "Hi, eomma" I spoke up again "I heard you gotten in a fight" I sighed "yeah I did" "reckless boy!" I heard my father yell in the background.

"I agree with your father, reckless. That can ruin our family's reputation, Seung Ho. First public school, the pictures, now this. What's gotten into you?" "I don't know, eomma. Why'd you call?" I asked.

"We're coming home earlier than expected" I flinched "what?" "Mhm. You've been causing a lot of trouble, and we can't have that. Besides we have to discuss marriage proposal with the girl and her family" "you can't!" I yelled.

"And why not?" There was pure silence "she... moved" "she moved?" She asked "that's a load of crap!" I heard my father again, "where to?" "I don't know. She left Korea" I lied.

"That is a problem" "oh, well, we can pick a different lady for you" "what, no—" "alright; I have to go now. Goodbye, eat well" and hung up. I looked at Seo Joon, he sighed and took his phone.

I sighed, Seo Joon patted my shoulder.

"Whenever they come back, try to talk to them. If they don't understand, I'll take you far away from this place" Seo Joon Said "alone?" He nodded no. "Ha Rin and I will go with you" I smiled and nodded.

But realized, I might not exist.

JI HYUN'S POV

I was walking around the rich rich neighborhood during my free time, and I noticed the library. "I should find something" I told myself and walked inside the library, I kept looking around but couldn't find anything.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" The Liberian asked "yes! Do you guys have anything that's about magic or reincarnation?" I asked "we do! Please follow me!" I followed her to the other side of the library.

"This whole shelf is about magic and reincarnation. Does this satisfy you?"

Jesus, it's a lot of books.

"Yes, thank you" but this would do. She walked away pleased, I searched through the shelf and I read the books, scratch that, I just skimmed through them.

Nothing.

Nothing.

Nothing.

Nothing!!!

I groaned in frustration, I saw a light blue book and pulled it out. "To my Star?" "What the heck is this?" I opened the book and I actually started reading it, my eyes widened slowly. I start slowly sitting down against the shelf.

I so happened to find myself a BL book.

"Excuse me, ma'am" my eyes were glued on the book "ma'am!" I snapped out of it "the library will soon be closing" I gasped.
