"It's a burden to see things that others don't. It's a burden to be called crazy when you aren't.
It's a burden to pretend you saw nothing when you did.
But I guess, that's the fate of being The Goblin's Bride afterall."_______________________________________
My name is Jung Hyejin. I was told by my brother who ran away 10 years ago that soon, I'll face death. He told me about monsters which only I could see among other humans around me and he told me that at the age of 17, I'll be their food.
I don't quite understand him back then since I was just a little girl. But after years of reading books about this creature he told me, I slowly understand his warnings. And that my death he warned... is nearing.
At the age of 16, I can feel how stronger the small monsters which always linger around me have become. Their strengths show how desperate they are to kill me just for immortality.
"Hyejin ah, you need to be careful when you're 17. At that age, please don't go into crowded places. Don't even listen nor follow to any strangers. Some goblins can change figures just to eat you. Don't fell for their charms as most goblins are extremely handsome and beautiful. Most importantly, don't fall into their deceitful acts. Especially those who act kind to you when you barely know them. They are after your flesh. Stay away as far as you can from them. Got it?"
And my brother left me alone with my parents just like that.
Strange enough, mom and dad never put an effort to find him at all. It was as if they were expecting him to leave at that time. They care less.
Until one night, mom told me everything about our family. How my ancestors were once a goblin's bride. Some were left to be eaten by those goblins. Some were killed by those tiny leeching monsters at the age of 17. Only one managed to be the goblin's bride.
But that was two centuries ago.
Mom told me how my brother, Hoseok was summoned to be one of the famous goblin's tribe loyal retainer. The golden tribe (geumjok).
And that my brother was actually not my actual brother. Rather he was adopted when someone left him in front of our house. Mom and dad raised him up and few years later, I was born.
Mom told me how Hoseok act weirdly after I was born. That his eyes turned red and he sniffed a lot whenever there was me. But dad managed to cool him down and that's when Hoseok started to protect me from any monsters I saw until I turned seven years old.
Jung Hoseok. That is his name. My brother's name who protected me until I turned seven years old. He is a goblin's loyal retainer that belongs to the golden tribe.
Now, I'm officially 17 years old where these monsters are slowly making its way to drink my blood, eat my flesh, or take me as their bride.
All that brings benefits to them.
What a selfish creature.
RINGGGG!
"Jung Hyejin!" Someone shout as I look up and see the president of the class stands by the front door of the class.
"Yeah?" I yawn as I massage my stiff shoulders.
Damn these small leeching creatures are slowly increasing I felt tired easily by them these days.
