~Jung Soo knew that if she died right now, nobody would notice because she is "already dead" for everyone else. She cried all the tears before doing it. I loved you, I love you, and I will always love you, my dear family. Everything on her mind disappeared and she closed her eyes slowly. She lay there, her body and bed full of blood. In the end, she knew someone was coming for her, maybe to save her...~

Jung Soo woke up to the smell of french vanilla in the air. She opened her eyes slowly and looked around the room. A person walked in and so she closed her eyes quickly where the person wouldn't notice that she was awake. The person looked at her and smiled at Jung Soo's sleeping body.

"You can wake up now, I won't hurt you, I promise." said the person with a soft angelic deep voice. Jung Soo then opened one of her eyelids and then opened both of her eyes. She looked at him and he looked at her. "See, I told you I wasn't going to hurt you," he said. "Now tell me, what is your name, pretty lady?"

"W-where am I?" asked Jung Soo looking scared. The person looked at her, deep in her soul, and smiled again.

"You are here at my house. I am taking care of you for now. Once you are healed properly you can flee away," He said. "But, may I ask, what is your name?"

"Oh...w-well my name is Jung Soo. Park Jung Soo," she said while looking at him and tried not to smile, which worked.

The male's eyes widened and said: "wait...are you from the Park's residence?"

Jung Soo stopped what she was doing and nodded. "Why?" she said after.

"Well, I heard that the Park's are looking for a missing daughter. They said they haven't seen her in 2-3 years."

"That's because I moved. I left my house and moved to a different house 2 years ago." Jung Soo responded not wanting for the male to get worried. "By the way, what is your name? I didn't get to note it," Jung soo said after.

The male laughed "Right! I forgot to tell you my name," he said, "the names Jae-Hyun. Kim Jae-Hyun."

"Ah ok," she whispered. She tried getting up to go and get a glass of water, but she couldn't get up and felt huge pain.

Jae-Hyun noticed this and grabbed Jung Soo by the arm. "Don't force yourself to get up, here take this," he said giving her the glass of water. Jung Soo looked at him and smiled saying thank you and drank out of the glass of water. Jae-Hyun put his hand on her forehead and felt that she had a really high fever. So he put a cloth in hot water and put it on her forehead. Jung Soo flinched a little but then settled herself down calmly. She looked at Jae-Hyun and he smiled at her. She soon fell into a deep sleep.

~7:00 AM ~

Jung Soo woke up to a smell that was unpleasant. She looked around and noticed it wasn't the place she was at with Jae-Hyun. It was a different place. The place looked like an alleyway, but it was different. It wasn't one of those alleyways that always maintain dark even at day time. This one had the sun's rays and it looked very gloomy. Jung Soo picked herself up and tried walking, but she fell to the ground again. She picked herself up again and took a small step, but she was about to fall until someone caught her and she looked up and was surprised.

"Jae-Hyun," she said, "how did you know I was here?"

"Wait, the question is how did you know my name?" he asked, "I don't remember seeing you or meeting you anywhere."

"You were taking care of me just now," She said, "...or was it a dream?" she asked herself. She looked up at Jae-Hyun eyes and he looked at her's. Jae-Hyun then suddenly spoke and they broke from the trance they were both in.

"I-I think that it was a dream because I don't know you and I don't recognize you from anywhere," Jae-Hyun said while holding Jung Soo, "I would have just noticed you the moment I saw you, but I don't know you."

"Jae-Hyun I am Jung Soo... I was at your house like yesterday maybe and you took care of me." Jung Soo said. She looked at him and then got tired of waiting, so she got out of his grip and showed him the cut and the bruises she had. Yes, showing him hurt a lot because she wasn't careful of where she was touching. She realized that she was being stupid in front of him so she just gave up and said 'nevermind'.

"Nevermind Jae-Hyun. Just pretend that you didn't see me at all. I'll get going, take care and thank you," was all she said and left.

~Jae-Hyun's POV~

I saw that girl getting away from my grip. So then I closed my eyes and had a small flashback.

I put my hand on her forehead and felt that she had a really high fever. So I put a cloth in hot water and put it on her forehead. Jung Soo flinched a little but then settled herself down calmly. She looked at me and I smiled at her. She soon fell into a deep sleep. I woke up from the alarm and saw it was early in the morning...

"Who was that girl?..." I said to myself, "Why did I dream about a random girl that I don't even know?"

My face expression changed when I remembered what she was talking about. "I saved that girl in my dreams... but how come we both had the same dream?" I ran out and went looking for her. What was her name again? Oh, right, Jung Soo.

~Back to regular POV~

Jung Soo was walking down the street looking like she just woke up, but soon she heard something. She didn't know who that was so she looked back and saw Jae-Hyun running towards her. Jae-Hyun was soon able to catch up to her.

"There you are. I am sorry I couldn't recognize you earlier. I had to see where I have seen you before. Seems like you were in my dream too. Not in real life, but we were both in our own dreams." He said while Jung Soo listened carefully.

"So that was a dream..." she said.

"Yes, it was, but did you perhaps had the same dream as me?" Jae-Hyun asked.

"That's the thing I don't get, I think I did..." Jung Soo responded.

"Why don't we talk about this?" Jae-Hyun requested and I nodded.

Jung Soo talked to the side and told Jae-Hyun that she needed to use the rest so he nodded and stayed outside to wait for her. 

~Inside the restroom~

Jung Soo looked at the mirror and looked at herself carefully. "Did you all really think this was the end? Prepare yourselves for what will happen next..."
