“Love is blind and
Lovers are fools”


Myung-He's pov

How could our presence trigger anything supernatural? We aren't strong enough for that, at least I'm not. Jeongguk could, because he is a charismatic man.

“Because we are the same as them.”

"Just because we are together same as they?" I asked.

"Not just that," Gguk kissed my cheek sweetly. 

"It's because we're similar to them. So we sync emotionally."

"Synched?"

What this boy is saying?! He is taking this way too serious but I like how he look right now. Synching with dead ones? It was not like we are the only one look like or act like other people who disappeared from earth.

"We match or conform. In other words we're on the same wavelength."

"With the ghosts?" I walked towards the door and waited for Jeongguk to follow up. His touches were inflamble to my heart.

He smiles knowingly why I suddenly stand away from him. He is a demon. He could devour my soul and body. He will do it silently and beautifully. 

If I get any more physically closer with him, then there is no turning back. I will be gone. I will be nothing but sand in his hands. So let go of his warmth and shivered in the achingly cold breeze.

Jeongguk stood up from the floor dusting away "Rather than ghosts; thoughts. I think that people's thoughts are the strongest thing there is. And regret is the worst, the most likely to leave traces behind."

"Regret..."

We don't have any regret and certainly not for me I have been happiest than ever with Jeongguk.

“Do you have any regrets?” I asked him.

“Yes I have.”

I looked at him stunned. “What was it? I will make it happen.”

“You can't.”

“I can, anything as long as you are with me.” I was energized.

“I regret that you won't let me kiss you again,” he said with a smug smile tugging at the corner of his lips.

“Idiot!” I smacked his head playfully, I thought he was going to say something very serious. “We are too young for all that sort of thing.”

“What's about the regret they have? Got any idea?” I asked him.

"Jungkook wanted to meet someone and Taehyung was waiting for somebody too. I think the problem is probably the reason behind it. Wanting to see a person, so strongly that that feeling remains even after you die. Maybe it only happened because their deaths were unexpected."

I know, while I'm staying this close with Jeongguk there are people in the world who couldn't meet their loved ones, there are people who could only dream to see them again, or they are so far away all they could do is only see them in dream. 

"Something unexpected happened like their death." Jeongguk continues.

"Yeah possibly that's the case." 

"Gguk." His arms tightened creating a protective layer over me. He continued hiding his face on the crook of my neck.

"It must have been difficult." His voice is sad.

"Gguk...." I can't concentrate.

His kisses always make me irrational. I wrapped my arms around Gguk's shoulders, hugging him tightly. His fingers slipped through my hair. In a matter of a short time I was melting like a candle in his arms.

It must have hurted Seara and Taehyung Knowing that it could go nowhere, being blocked in every direction.  A love full of obstacles is hard. They must have known they couldn't follow through on anything. 

"Are we really so similar to them?" I breathed out.

"No, but we do have pains. There's no such thing as painless love but I'm happy anyway."

He kissed me softly.

Gguk...

I promise I will make it less painful for you. I didn't voice out the sudden bravery but I keep it my head.

Out from the lab room We strolled along the empty corridor of the Academy. my each step weighted by the thoughts of a lost Love. What is this feeling of melancholy? Am I falling into depression?

So Seara and Taehyung meet Inside the school but it must have been tough coming all the way here all the time just to meet Taehyung.

And it strike me.

"Our school doesn't allow people from outside and that would make them look pretty suspicious wouldn't it?"

It would definitely be hard for a normal person. Unless...

"Surely not," Gguk laughed then his face went to serious once again. "Do you seriously think that?"

"But how else..."

It wasn't like they could have risked a chance to catch by guards. I couldn't think of any other way.

"Seara Jeon must be one of the faculty of course."

I was shocked by Joengguk's statement.

Seara as a teacher.

Taehyung as a student.

Impossible!.

Only Joengguk would come up with something like that. A dense person like me would never have thought of it. I don't even think about the possibility of it. My brain is pea sized.

A forbidden love between a teacher and student. In Japan it's against the law of institution as well against the morals and ethics.

As I grasp more and more about them I was astonished that beyond all of these they choose to love each other. Every option was against them, having the age gap, being a student and teacher and more families at odds with each other.

In their story enemies are lurking in every possible corner in the form of their parents, family and career. The biggest enemy society. 

"Are they blind or what?" 

"Everyone is a blind when it comes to love," Jeongguk winked at me.
