Do Kyung Soo: Man In Black

Chapter 5: Why are you D.O. now?

I'm standing in a small hill covered with a bright shade of green grass. I inhaled the cold and fresh air surrounding me. I started to walk....then skip...then run.

Aaah! This is how it feels to be free.

With this elating feeling, I let my self go and did what I wanted to do after I entered my teen years. I braced myself then pulled my legs for another dash. When I think my speed was just right, I prepared myself to do a cartwheel...and then a somersault!

Free!!!

Another jump won't hurt! No one's here anyway but myself.

1...2....3..JUMP!!!

I was expecting to land on my behind but I was a bit disoriented. I felt like I'm flying. No! Riding something that flies.

I stared the place whre I landed and saw that a horse. No! It's just not a horse. A unicorn flying me around the area. Letting me see the beautiful landscape of the mountains. It gallopped amazingly in the air with its amazing calves and it's wings. Ohh, every feather of its wings are just ethereal to me. It was beyond my imagination.

I touched the fur of the magical creature. It felt so soft and real.

So, unicorns are real huh?

This feels light. I feel light.

RIIIIING!!!!!

What was that?!

I slowly opened my eyes, only to see an ample amount of light coming from the lampshade on my bedside.

With eyes barely open, I checked to see who was calling.

Caller ID: My Sweet Violinist

Reality hit me and all the events that happened previously came back. I automatically shoot up from my bed and immediately answered the phone call. It has been hours since we last talked and I'm eager to hear his voice.

"Hello Henry." I answered with a trembling voice.

"Hello? Jin Ae?"

"Henry.."

"Good God! You're ok! I've been calling you for hours. I got worried when I didn't get a text from you."

"I'm sorry. A lot of things happened when I got here."

"Really? Like what? Are you okay?"

I suddenly hear some footsteps outside.

"For now, yes." My voice now turned into a whisper.

"For now? What do you mean? Why are you whispering?"

"Look Henry, I..." I wanted to tell him all the horrible things that happened to me when suddenly stepping out of the shadows, is the man now called D.O.

His stare was overbearing and suddenly I can't find my voice to tell Henry to save me from this nightmare. I know this feeling. It's like wearing me down. It's the same thing that happened when I was in the car with Hyeri.

He stepped slowly but silently. I froze on the spot. Next thing he did was to gently took the phone out of my grasp but I held my ground. I clasped the phone to my hand.

"Hello? Hello? Jin Ae?" I can hear the faint voice of Henry on the other line. D.O., now closer, has an earshot as well. His eyes suddenly became urgent and shifted his gaze at the gadget on my hand.
