They Don't Know About Us

"I wish to die" a person mumbled in front of the creature, shocked from his wants.

"Oh, what a strange wish it is. Just wait, It will come to you." The creature assures him that it will be granted.

"I'm an immortal."
"I know."

________________

It was already 7 pm, walking alone in the alley on the way to her home. She was dazed. Lights keep on blinking, cold air that embraces her, a starry night it was.

She was confused, 'why did I wished for that?', her mind keeps on thinking earlier's happenings. In the corner of an alley, where the blinking light was, she sit hugging her legs and keeps her eyes shut. The night was so lonely and silence is all over it, a night she lives with.

After awhile of embracing the cold air, and emptiness this alley had, she didn't realize that her cheeks was already wet, her eyes that was so sad. Stars was all gone, grayish sky was only to be seen, and the light was literally broken and off.

"What's on earth?! Is living a long time, a punishment?" She yelled, crying and sobbing, suddenly thunder was heard, lightning flashed, droplets above started to fall, a rain, that was full of anger, and seems to be cursing her, answering her question.

"Maybe the earth heard your whispers." A man came next to her with an umbrella to cover her. She averted her eyes to the voice and person who's next to her. She saw a man, having those bloody eyes, so unnatural it was.

"The last time, was also the same with this, not exactly, for today, I brought an umbrella." He added, still she was unsure of this man is talking about. "But from what I see right now, you seem, to forget it." He continued, only for her to be left with confusion and mind full of question. He offered his hand to lift her up, and let her stood up, yet she rejected it. She stand alone and left him.

"Yah, Park Sooyoung!" He screamed at her, running while the rain is so heavy, she was wet and he chased her. "Sooyoung-ah!" He reached her, stopping for awhile, after the chasing they had. Holding her shoulders, panting as he shares the umbrella with her.

A sudden her eyes was full of madness, full of pain from this hurtful pins. She burst out all of her suffering in her mind. "I don't know of what things you've been talking, and I don't know if you heard all of my screams, and I just don't know why did I ever exist!" She burst out in front of the boy, again tearing, so sick of her tears that keeps on falling.

"Sooyoung-ah..." he mumbled softly, ready to embrace her, after she confessed her hearts emotion.

The rain just keep on falling so hard, in the middle of the alley, he reached for her, embraced her, caressing her wet hair. Her eyes was still watery, hitting his shoulder, to let her anger and burdens to disappear.

Those thing was called romantic and sweet if ever you'll referred it to a story, or books. Rainy nights, with the umbrella and embracing each other, it was the cliché stories that can be found. I want to really experience that in life, but I just can't for I'm an immortal, impossible to live like that. To live with a happy ending with someone you love.

For her, she lives with a punishment, she was punished for her sins that didn't exist in the first place, she was just sad and lonely after all.

"I'm sorry." She mumbled. Escaping from the embracing they had. "Wae?" He asked, looking at the girl who's busy wiping off her teary eyes. "I just, need to. I'll go now." Her sad voice that made him wanna hug her again, comfort her and stay with her.

"Sooyoung-ah..." he muttered at her back, who's walking away from him, rain keeps on tearing. She didn't look back, continued her walk, until she felt, someone's back hugging her. "It was a long night." He mumbles. "I'm sorry also." He added, making her cold heart a warm one, with the embrace he gives. 'What is the meaning of this?' Questions again was all over her mind. So many that she was already out of it.

He took off his hand from her waist, both of them, was wet. "I didn't expect that stories, gives you something like this." She muttered, looking at him, she smiled, and he completed his goal.

Lights on, she proceed to her bathroom and took a shower. She then go to her desk and made stories, she continues her writing, and then sleeps.

"It was really a long night."

"Good morning Sooyoung-ah!" A ghost,  early in the morning was her alarm. "Yah!" She screamed, as she saw Irene, looking so white, a soul she was really. She got up from her bed, as it was already time for her to go to school. She  brushed her teeth, change to her uniform and eats breakfast, while there's the soul keeps on bugging her.

"Sooyoung-ah, do you wished already, eoh?" Poking at her while eating, brushing her teeth, up to changing her clothes. "Yah! Get out, I'm dressing!"

"Now, Tell me. Did you meet Jinn?" The soul keeps on annoying her, on the way to her school. She entered their classroom, as Irene sits at her desk, not talking to the soul mood.

"Unnie, annyeong!" The cheerful Yeri, comes next to her. "Seems like you didn't came along with Sungjae today, eoh?" Yeri added. "Ah, I didn't see him at the bus stop earlier, maybe he's busy." She answered the girl's question.

"Ah, right. Unnie, after class, will be having our meeting, for the upcoming event of the school, and we should prepare something that's why."
"If it's important, I'll come." She smiled, as Yeri also did. The teacher then came, but no Yook Sungjae was to be found at his desk. 'Is he sick?' She wonders. The soul was beside her, at Sungjae's sit. Keeps on talking at Sooyoung who seems to be annoyed already.

"Be prepared for a quiz tomorrow okay. Bye class." The class ended, she was left at their room. "Sooyoung-ah, let's eat." Wendy approached her. "I'm not in the mood. You guys, just go without me." "Are you sure, are you not sick?" Seulgi added, concerned at her. "Nope, see you next class." She answered as her friends left her.

She was in pain, don't know where exactly, just pain. She rest her head at her desk, looking at the side, at Sungjae's sit. "He was there." She mumbled.

"Who is it?"
Flustered as Irene copied her position and blurted out question she also didn't understand. "Ooh... Is your wish being granted already?" The soul leaned her face at hers. Giving her a boiling question.

"I saw Jinn, I wished and one of it is to die. I didn't know why, but it happened." She stood up, no one inside the room only her and the soul. Explaining  everything at the soul who's in the teacher table and keeps on hearing her thoughts and blabbering all about the wishes and things.

"Aigoo, Sooyoung-ah, death is hard to face with."
"Why?"
"It was creepy."
"I don't care tho."
"It was painful."
"Really?"
"So sad, if your with him. Death will be your happy ending."
