They say misery loves company. Most don't know that their misery can be infectious. Others try so hard to hide it from the world that it makes them rot from the inside out.
"I just wish it would all end," Minji whispered to herself as she walked home from school.
"Why don't I help you with that?" A tall figure with large fanged teeth for a jaw and big claws suddenly appeared in front of her.
"AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!" Minji screamed and ran home as fast as she could.
The Monster was left behind tilting their head a bit confused.
- Kim Minji -
I ran into the house scared as hell. I couldn't believe what I had just seen.
"Miss Kim, are you okay?" The housemaid, and my caretaker, questioned when she saw my state.
"Yes, I'm fine. Just a bit tired" I tried to calm myself down.
"I must have imagined that. I haven't been sleeping well anyway," I thought to myself.
"Should I serve you dinner?" The maid didn't seem to believe me but she knew better than to question me.
"Sure. I'll just go get settled first," I politely replied.
*DING, DONG*
The front door suddenly ran.
My knees trembled, but before I could tell the housemaid to not open the door... someone stranger walked into the house...
"Oh, Kim Minji-ssi! Is this where you live?" Some kid wearing the same uniform as me yelled when walking in.
The kid was about my height, maybe shorter. We were wearing the same uniform but I didn't recognize them.
"And who might you be?" The housemaid asked our intruder.
"You can call me Y/n. Miss Kim and I have a scheduled appointment to talk about something important," The kid politely bowed.
"Is it about school?" She questioned.
"It does involve school. Yes," The kid smirked at me.
"I have no idea wh-"
"Shall we talk in private? Maybe your room?" The kid suddenly pushed me towards my room.
I froze when the doors closed behind us.
"How does this kid know where my room is?" I started to panic.
"So?" I heard footsteps walk up behind me...
There was low breathing down my neck... and I could feel someone towering over me...
"I can make your wish come true," A sudden whisper in my ear brought me down to my knees.
"Wh-what are you?" I struggled to get my words out.
"I'm your wish come true," I could feel drool hanging near my cheek.
"What wish? What do you want from me?!" I tried to be as still as possible.
"I eat the dead inside. The rotting carcass making its way out. You wished for it all to end and I am here to end it all," The heavy breath down my neck became ice cold.
"I take it back!!" I screamed and tried to push the monster off me.
I shut my eyes as tightly as possible to keep from seeing The Monster's horrid face and crawl back until I no longer could.
