"I woke up from a nightmare of my past home," Seonghwa says "It felt too real but when I realized where I was my heart kinda claimed down but it was still beating quite fast" "I can only imagine are you afraid that your past will come haunting you" "Very" "You're an op god though" He laughs then smiles looks ahead. "Yeah, thanks for that" "There's a part of you that fears your past will come back to haunt you" "Yeah" "Well are you happy here?" "I'm I feel like I found a place I can call home and I've met..met actual people who care about me" "You weren't you know engaged or nothing" "I didn't try to chase anyone but I know what love is and clearly what I had with the past people in my life wasn't love" "I see" "But I'm here and I feel it the warmth and the comfort of knowing I won't ever be alone I guess I found somewhere where I can belong" "You should" "I do and I'm glad I got out of there when I did I don't know what would've happened if I stuck around like I said only my stuff was just left broken photoframes and past albums we had of each other" "Oh gosh" 

"I don't know why they choose to go when all I did was get more food from the store nearby" "That's not right at all Seonghwa" "Yeah" "Well if your past does come to haunt you what will you do?" "Stay here I've already made up my mind I finally have a chance at literal happiness I'm not going to let anyone ruin that for me and I'm not going to let anyone try to ruin you guys either I know you're the leader but I know where I need to be and it's with you guys protecting you guys from the unknown and from anything that may come from my past or from any other worlds that are out there" "I won't you stop you either just know I'll be here for you wow that sounded cheesy" I say Seonghwa laughs "Bet it sounded way chessier in your head" "Yah" Her laugh it was sound I didn't know I need in my lifetime until now.
