Another World

Beomgyu's POV

My alarm clock starts ringing, jolting me out of my sleep. I groggily open my eyes, feeling disoriented and trying to wake up.

It's 6 am, and I need to get up for work soon. I sit up in bed and turn off the alarm, feeling a pang of disappointment that the sound interrupts my dreams.

As I sit up in bed, I can still vividly recall the dream I was just having. It was a beautiful dream, filled with the warmth and comfort of Yeonjun's embrace. I can almost feel the ghost of his arms around me, and the feeling of security and love that came with it.

The dream had felt so real, so intense, that even now, as I sit in bed, I can't shake the feeling that Yeonjun was really there, really holding me. It's a strangely bittersweet feeling, knowing that it was just a dream.

Once I'm up and the memory of the dream has faded, I head to the bathroom to get ready for the day. I turn on the shower and wait for the water to warm up. As I undress and step under the spray, I start to think about the sculpture I was working on.

I've been stuck on it for a while, and I know I need to make some progress today. The water feels nice and warm on my skin, and it helps me think clearly.

Being an accomplished artist comes with its challenges, but it also has its perks. My art is highly sought after by collectors and art enthusiasts, and I'm considered one of the best in the country. And I have to admit, it feels good to be recognized for my skills and talent.

I can't help but feel proud of what I've accomplished. I've built my own art gallery, and I'm recognized as one of the best artists in the country. Collectors and art enthusiasts come from all over to see my work, and I have many friends and admirers in the art world.

I do a variety of things, but my favorite medium is sculpture. I love the feeling of working with my hands, creating something tangible and three-dimensional.

But I also really enjoy painting. I like the way colors and brushstrokes can create an entire new world on a canvas. And drawing is also something I do, especially when I need to sketch out ideas for new projects.

My artwork has sold for outrageous sums of money, and I've become quite wealthy as a result. But the money isn't what drives me - it's the passion for my art and the joy it brings to others that truly fulfills me.

I can't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. It's a great feeling to know that people value my art, and it motivates me to keep pushing myself to create even more amazing works of art in the future.

I step out of the shower and finish getting dressed and take one last look at myself in the mirror. I can see the tiredness in my eyes from not enough sleep, but there's also a drive and determination there. I'm ready to face the day and dive back into my work.

With a deep breath, I step out of the bathroom and make my way to the kitchen. I need a cup of coffee to fully wake up and start my day.

Maybe not committing suicide was a good decision after all.

Author's POV

3 years ago

Beomgyu was feeling lost and alone after returning from Yeonjun's world. He had nothing and nowhere to go. He struggled to find a job that suited him and ended up working as a barista at a local coffee shop. It wasn't particularly fulfilling, and he didn't get paid cause the owner was kind enough to let him stay at his place. Beomgyu appreciated it but it wasn't the kind of life he wanted to live, he couldn't just relay on the kind man for the rest of his life. He couldn't help but start thinking about his life and his life choices. He spent most of the nights crying, thinking why did he had to go through that portal. He started hating his life and himself so much cause of how much pain he might've caused yeonjun.
