»Gye Nari«
"Nari!"
"What?!"
"Guanlin's awake!" Seonho yelled.
I immediately rushed upstairs to his room.
"Nari..." he weakly called.
"Are you okay now?!" I asked him.
"Im okay as if nothing happened, I'm serious, I dont even feel like Yongguk crushed me, it feels like no one even touched a hair." Guanlin smiled at me.
"You cunt, I swear." I whispered and hugged him tight.
"But.. where are we? This isn't the dorm." He said and looked around.
"Because we arent there." Seonho said.
"Exactly, why aren't we there?" Guanlin asked.
"R-remember what happened? Yongguk... he attacked you right? And crushed you.. then you passed out. After.. after that I.. gave Jina to him." I managed to explain.
"You what? Nari, you gave him Jina?" He asked.
"She's the one they want! If we give her to them everyone will be saved, you will be safe!"
"So what if we're safe? How will we all live in peace if we know that we have a friend in another fucking realm?! Nari, Jina's your bestfriend!" He said.
"I just told Yongguk where she was! There's no guarantee they took her! Do you think I'm not regretting this as much as I could?!" I said as I choked in tears.
"Nari... we'll go back to the dorm, we'll check on Jina and the others, we'll say sorry and--"
"Guanlin, I cant!" I said.
"You can, we have to. I'll be there with you." He said as he brushed my hair.
"They're angry at us, Guanlin." Seonho said.
"They wont be if we apologize." Guanlin said.
"Let's get ready. We'll go back to the subdivision, we'll check on them, and everything is going to be fine." Guanlin smiled.

»Lee Jina«
"Ji..Jihoon.." I approached him.
It's just the two of us in the park, everyone was okay now, having fun and playing games at the house.
"Jina." He smiled at me.
I sat on the swing beside him. Before we started to talk we took a few back and forths on the swing.
"Did you know... one memorable thing we did as mother and son, was when we went to the park, for once you were trying to be a good mom, you were pushing me on the swings and--"
"I pushed too hard didnt I?" I laughed.
"Yeah, I went flying across the whole park. I was only 3 back then." He laughed.
"There was also this one time, I pushed Daehwi off the swings, not once but thrice. That's how I knew."
After that, we went silent.
"You.. know.." he said as I heard him sob.
"Why are you crying? Hey, stop crying now." I said as I knelt infront of him and wiped his tears off his cold face.
As I did the gesture, he just sobbed harder.
"Hey~! Stop it now.. mom's gonna get angry." I joked.
