It is what every man holds that
no one concedes,
The bloom starts with little kids.
It is that urges corruption
Thus, never ceases disruption
Starts with gold, ends with death
Guess before you lack of breath
The events of the past several days have both shaken Saeyoung's belief and understanding of the world and left him with a disheartened and perplexed disposition, it left him scared more than anything. Yet Saeyoung feels that he must organize these events in his mind, that he is compelled to structure the dreadful things which he has done so that he could decipher the intention of the entity haunting him, so that his mind may be at rest — a need to quantify the happenings that took place.
Saeyoung, anticipating a tranquil slumber was about to close his languid eyes, ready to dream blissfully about the thing he adores most, money. If wasn't mentioned yet, Saeyoung's god is money, He can disregard his greedy and selfish deeds in the past but unbeknownst to the lad, his wrongdoings are about to haunt him.
A sudden creak from his closet left an eerie sensation down his spine. The creak was then followed by a whirring sound, loud enough to disturb Saeyoung's sleep. Troubled, he opened the risky closet only to set his eyes on the most horrifying entity he has ever seen.
Then, it muttered...
"I am an empty void. Throw all the gold in the world
and not a single inch of me will be filled.
I resound in everything, everyone...release me, if you can,
and you will reach peace. What sin am I?"

Anguish, hatred, into an empty void a resounding scream of rage overwhelmed. The phantom reminisces what made her such a dreadful entity. When she tried to reminisce about the beginning of the story, memories of that day were the first came to mind.

"Hello, my name is Kohaku. I am the new employee, I'm pleased to make your acquaintances," a winsome smile then followed after the polite introduction of the blonde lass with mesmerizing deep-blue orbs.
Her new workmate didn't even glance and continued counting the convenience store's profit. Kohaku then positioned herself into the counter. Their first night and weeks of working together went smoothly though there wasn't much talking that took place between the two.
"Saeyoung, would you mind if I eat dinner with you? Uhm what are you doi--," the redhead immediately hid the money he was holding upon hearing Kohaku.

ii ; Saeyoung's
Saeyoung Choi grew up believing that only money can rule the world. Seeing his own father's doings, he vowed to himself that he'll be rich one day. After graduating, he applied for a job but no luck. So he ended up working in a convenience store.
A new worker arrived at the store. He heard her introduced herself, but he didn't pay attention. He's busy counting the store's profit and thinking how much would he steal that night.
One thousand, two thousand... or maybe three. No, it doesn't matter. He can steal day by day without a fail. Kohaku, on the other hand, positioned herself on the other counter.
Weeks passed by, and Saeyoung is thankful because of two reasons; first is that Kohaku didn't have any clue about his doings, and second is that he always has the chance to steal.
One night, he is trying to steal again, but then Kohaku entered the picture. She asked him if he's fine about eating dinner together. He immediately hid the money in his pocket. "Sure. I am about to have my dinner too." He then smiled at the girl in front of him.
While eating dinner, he thought of something beautiful. This time it is something more dreadful, to steal all the money and flee away. He had been adoring money, for him, money can give everything he could wish for.
