Prologue

Monday
4:50 PM KST

My arms and hands are covered with blood. Even half of my blouse was soaked by it. With my hand shaking, I reached his wounded belly to applied pressure, to stop the blood. I don't know where he acquired that. I don't know... I don't want to know...

"I... M-Miss yo—you... I ne-need y-you... Kkum s-sogeseon aji-jikdo... I-I—I'm w-with... Y-you..."

My eyes started to get blurry following my tears those are starting to fall, one after another until it flows like an endless river. He's singing! He's fcking singing even though he's having difficulties on his breathing.

Oh, God...

"No... Please—" I sob, begging for him to stop. But he just smiled at me. I could notice how he weakly stretched his face just to do that and it breaks me.

Damn, it really hurts. It hurts me seeing him smile while pain was evident on his lips.

"J—"

"I mi-miss yo-you... I-I ne-need you—"

"Stop singing!" I yelled. He's already coughing blood. "Don't waste your ener—gy... Please, I'm be-begging you..."

Why do I have to experience this? Why now that I already knew everything?! Why now that I already remembered every single detail of my past?! Why me?!

"Haneun s-ssi—"

"Shh! I already called for some rescue. They'll come at any moment so p-please—j-just please. Refrain from saying anything... Save your energy. Yo-you will l-live, okay? Do y-you get it?"

"Si-siga—neul... D-Doedeoll...yeo... Je—" he isn't singing anymore. "Jeb... Jebal..."

I bit my lip. I noticed how a single tear rolled from the corner of his eyes. I absent-mindedly put more pressure to his wound.

"W-want... Ba-back... Time..." He tried to reach for my cheek but his hands fell back to his side. "So-Sorry— H-Han—eun..."

"I won't accept your sorry unless you stop talking and obey what I'm saying... D-Don't utter any single word... I-I will listen to your ex—explanations..." I gasped. "...after I sent you to the h-hospital... L-Live— Live for m-me—"

"F-fulfill... Promise— I... S-saved y-you... T-This time—" he, then, gave me a weak smile.

"Y-Yes... Y-you saved me... Now, I'm asking y-you to l-live... Jagi— I D-Don't know what should I do if I l-lose you for the se—second time... Please... I can't..."

"Be h-hap— h-happy w-with h-him—"

"Don't s-say that!" I was alrealy in panic, more than what I've feeling moments ago. "You will l-live! D-Doctors will save y-you."

"S-sa—r-rangh-hae... H-Haneun—"

His right hand fell on his sides at the same time his eyelids closed. A moment later, cops and rescue came. I hope they aren't late but yes, sure. They are.

Everything went fast to the point that I can't absorbed whatever happened tonight simultaneously.

Earlier, I was just helping the members with their meal. I was just cracking some jokes to lighten their mood despite of their full and hectic schedule. I was just looking forward to this day because I would be receiving another gift from my precious boy. I was just taking my time, wandering on an empty street. I just got a message from Joshua saying that we have something to talk to. I was very happy.

But then, in an instant, everything faded. I should be the one who get those bruises. I should be the one lying on the stretcher. I should be the one soaking with my own blood. I should be the one who is fighting for my own life.

It should be me. Not until someone pushed me away and take the impact that should me mine in the first place.

But, why now? I am now ready to face everything that I've forgotten, but God already took the man I want to be with forever. The man I loved and still love. The man who taught me things which helped me to be what I am now. The man I love in the first place...

Tell me. Why him?
