Chang Da-rae’s POV
The second Gyeong-su’s nose started bleeding, the whole room froze.
A sharp gasp echoed around us.
"What’s happening?" I asked, my voice trembling as I watched him wipe away the blood, his hands shaking.
"I told you, didn’t I? You still think I’m wrong?" Na-yeon’s smug voice cut through the moment like a knife.
"Shut the hell up, Na-yeon!" I snapped, barely able to contain my anger.
Gyeong-su stood up, shaking. Everyone took a step back. Everyone except me and Cheong-san.
"Oh no. No, no, no. This can’t be happening," I muttered, panic creeping in.
"I’m not—!" Gyeong-su’s voice cracked with desperation.
"Gyeong-su, stay where you are!" On-jo pleaded, fear laced in her voice.
"I swear I’m not turning!"
"I’m sorry, Gyeong-su, please… just stay back," I choked out, tears forming in my eyes.
Wu-jin’s grip on my arm tightened. "Da-rae, stay back, please!" His voice was strained, and when I turned to him, I saw his eyes glistening.
I swallowed hard. "I can’t just stand here and watch this happen!"
"I’m sorry, Da-rae," Gyeong-su said, his voice breaking.
"It’s not your fault," he reassured me. But the fear in his eyes told me he didn’t believe that either.
"Why is this happening?! What’s happening to him?!" I cried out, overwhelmed.
"GET OUT! I SAID GET OUT!" Na-yeon screamed.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP, NA-YEON!" Gyeong-su roared. "Why would I bite you? We’re fucking friends!!"
My breath hitched. "G-Gyeong-su, don’t say that!" My vision blurred with tears, but he wasn’t listening.
"If I leave… it’ll be better for everyone."
"No!" Cheong-san was already crying. His voice broke completely.
"It’s okay. Thank you for everything. And stay alive."
Gyeong-su stepped toward the door. But then he hesitated.
He looked back at us.
For the first time, I saw it—pure terror in his eyes.
"Stop it! Please! You’re scaring me!!" He collapsed to the floor, sobbing. "Cheong-san, Da-rae… why are you doing this?!!"
I felt completely helpless.
My best friend.
He was slipping away right in front of me.
"Gyeong-su, please! You have to fight this!" I sobbed, but it was already happening.
His body twitched.
His bones snapped.
And just like that—he wasn’t Gyeong-su anymore.
He lunged at us.
I fell backward as Dae-su shoved him away, his face twisted in heartbreak.
Then, in the worst moment of my life, Cheong-san whistled that damn tune and forced Gyeong-su out the window.
And just like that—he was gone.

The room was silent except for sniffles and quiet sobs.
