All for One, One for All

Chapter 19

It had been two days since they had started their journey back to Seoul. It was tiring and a bit awkward after the fight. Yoo Jung, Jang Soo, Il Ha, and Soo Chul were obviously avoiding everyone as they still felt guilty about what they had done. They all stopped in front of the map and discovered that they still had to walk 100 km more until they arrived in Seoul.

Joon Hee and Ha Na whined at that thought. They had been walking for two days but still, there was more distance to walk. It felt like they had walked around the globe. They then saw a bus parked nearby and So Yoon was about to run toward it but was stopped by Hee Rak. He pointed to the dead bodies near that transportation. Everyone became alert and slowly walked toward those dead bodies.

Min Ha knew that nothing was going to happen there, she ran toward the corpses. She took the bullets from their gun before she heard Joon Hee saying, "It's them, isn't it?" Joon Hee turned toward Deok Joong and he nodded at her. She then explained to everyone about the meeting between the three of them that day with these students. The others stared at the bodies, shocked on their face. So Yoon entered the bus and tried to start the engine but to no avail.

They all stood in silence, and couldn't think straight because they were too tired. Min Ha stared at Young Soo. Shouldn't right now he tried to beg for everyone to go back to their base? Why he didn't do that? Was this a new change? After a few more minutes, Bo Ra walked away from there, continuing the journey to Seoul, and soon after, the others joined her as well including Young Soo. Min Ha was completely confused now. Why didn't Young Soo say anything? She suddenly became anxious about this new change. She didn't know if this was a good kind of change or a you-fucked-up-real-bad kind of change. Either way, she didn't like what happened at this moment.

It was already nighttime when they found an amusement park and decided to take a rest there. Everyone took a sit beside the carousel except for Young Soo, and the four perpetrators. Young Soo sat a little far from them while the other four friends sat in front of them. "Let's get some rest here and get something to eat." Everybody nodded and with that, they all split up to look for food.

They found a few can foods and shared them with the others. Min Ha was about to stand up with a can in her hand when she was stopped by Yeon Joo. "What are you doing?" Min Ha pointed at the four friends who were busy staring at the ground. "Share with them. They might be hungry too." Yeon Joo shook her head and said no to Min Ha. "I'm still mad at them. I can't forgive them for lying to us." Min Ha sighed and suddenly Deok Joong spoke out. "By the way, the students from Science High School, had different opinions and only eight of them were going to Seoul. When I saw their bodies, I thought, that might have been us if we had separated. Yoo Jung and Jang Soo weren't wrong after all. "

The others nodded and Joon Hee also voiced her thought. "Right, I was furious and felt betrayed at first. But, we all know that they were doing their best in their own way." Min Ha smiled at them. Finally, they understood the reason why their four friends had done it. Min Ha noticed that Yeon Joo had already stood up and walked toward the four. Min Ha watched from her sit, happy that they had reconciled. The four stood up and joined them. Jang Soo sat beside Min Ha which made her face red. So many sit around here and he chose to sit with her? This guy would be the death of her. "Eat. You must feel very hungry after all that fighting and walking." Jang Soo smiled at her and whispered thanks to her. She nodded, still avoiding his gaze.

Ha Na then started to tell the others about how she had fun going to the amusement park with the guys in Class One and Bo Ra teased her about how her boyfriend had puked after riding one of the rides which made Ha Na pouted. Everyone laughed at that. "I always want to go to the amusement park since the beginning of the first term. I never expected to go here in this situation." Said Soo Chul. It was silence for a while but then the whole place became brighter as the lights were turned on.

"I did it!" So Yoon ran toward them happily after her success. Everyone complimented her but then Young Shin walked toward them with a grumpy face. "It was me." So Yoon turned to Young Shin, saying that it was her who had done it. They were about to have an argument when Tae Man interrupted them, telling everyone to have fun. Joon Hee asked, "Is it okay? What if the spheres suddenly appear?" Young Shin checked his detector and showed her the device as there were no spheres shown on it.

"By the way, it's beautiful, isn't it?" Ae Sol watched the lights shined around the Ferris Wheel. The others turned to look at it too. They were all awed at the beautiful lights which somehow had decorated their tiring night. Min Ha was too busy admiring the beauty of that night when she felt someone holding her hand. She looked at the one who was standing beside her. Jang Soo smiled fondly at her and she returned the gesture. Just for this night. Just for this moment, she would follow her heart.

——————————————————————————

Min Ha had ridden the Viking and almost threw up. That thing moved fast and higher every minute. You see, she was never good at things that had speed and height. She rather died than rode that malicious thing again. Next, she rode the bumper cars, her favorite ride, and sat with In Hye. She bumped into her friend's car every chance she got. She almost broke the car because of her 'careless' driving and almost sent Tae Man out of his seat. But, on top of everything, she had fun. She also had ridden a few rides that she was a hundred, wait no, thousand times sure she would not ride again. In other words, she would not go back to the amusement park, that evil place filled with evil rides.

They all had split up at that point. She looked around the place, searching for Young Soo but failed to find him. She saw everyone was having fun in the photo booth and she became more anxious as she knew Young Soo might have lost his mind at that point. She needed to find him. She had to save everyone. She couldn't let all her hard work on keeping everyone safe go to waste. With that, she ran and started searching for him, Kook Young Soo.

Letter to myself,

Dear me,
I will answer him. After this, after I have saved everyone, I will answer him. Hey, Min Ha! The one in this universe. If something bad happens to me which made me go back to my universe and you take over your own body, please do a favor for me. Can you answer Jang Soo's confession? Not for me but for yourself. I don't know if you like him or not but trust me, he will make you happy if you accept him, and besides he deserves to know the answer. Please be kind to him if somehow you decide to reject him.

Sincerely,
Cho Min Ha

P.S. Tell everyone I love them.
