Sacred Moon: Different Worlds, Different Times (HIATUS)

CH 1: Memories

Go Ha Jin POV:
I'm crying, I'm sulking, I had another dream of him... He was crying, asking me to come back desperately that I promised him I will never leave him, he had loneliness and guilt in his eyes, he was blaming his self for being too late to save me as he hangs himself and that's when I woke up yelling "NO!" sweating profusely, as I think about it, I was the reason their brotherhood was destroyed, that they ended up killing each other. The guilt is gonna eat me whole FOREVER. I continued crying as I hold on to the blue handkerchief that was given to me back at the museum 2 years ago...

2 years ago, in the museum;
"Just go home and rest, I'll cover up for you." my co-worker said to me as I feel dizzy, flashes of scenes appeared on my mind, and it was that guy with a long scar on his face wearing Hanbok. I take my leave as I walk then something caught my attention, I walked in the room filled with portraits of scenes that seemed TOO familiar that's when it ringed/crossed my mind, ALL OF IT! I look at each and every one of them, carefully with tears in my eyes. I... remember now... I remember everything! As I turn around and look at the portrait in my back, I felt my heart aching, it was him, my king, Wang So. As tears fall from my eyes, I read the description along his portrait, "King Gwangjong, the 4th king of Goryeo was a good and wise king." I read, forming a small, sad smile. "At least your not known as a bloody, tyrant ruler, you did it...without me..." I say, my voice getting smaller and smaller on each word. "I'm sorry for leaving you alone" I say as I fall on the floor crying uncontrollably, saying sorry multiple times.

"선생님(Miss), are you ok?" A voice behind me says, offering a blue handkerchief, it was the guy that looked like Ji Mong and also the 아저씨(Mister) I met just before I got transported to Goryeo. Could it still be him? Are they the same person? Desperate for answers I stood up and asked him LOTS of questions, looking like a crazy woman, some people are watching and murmuring but I couldn't care less. That's when a small, knowing smile formed on the right side of his lips and said "Come with me to the coffee shop beside this place...Hae Soo ya."

"What would you like to drink my lady?" He asked looking at the small menu in front of him, I didn't want to drink or order anything, my mind is still fuzzing and has LOTS of questions to be answered. "Just answer my questions please, ALL OF IT." I said, impatiently, sadness and confusion obviously written on my face.
"Well what do you want to know?" He asked, I thought of TOO much questions about Wang So but I chose to ask the first ever question that I thought ever since I was in Goryeo. "Who really is Hae Soo? Why did I get transported to her body? Is she my past life?" I asked, hoping to get a good explanation. "Well simply, YOU ARE Hae Soo, Back in those times, Hae Soo was someone who have been out of luck for such a young age, she was wishing the same thing you wished for, and...well... Yes, she's your direct descendant, but YOU were the one that put fate on a straight line, leading to where it is now." He said, making sure I understood every word. "Destiny had took your star and had taken you to a world/time very far/long from here. You did have a purpose" he continued, as if he was reading my mind, taking in my top questions. I suddenly remembered Wang So, I felt tears forming in my eyes again "How is he? Did he carry being king well? I saw it written in history that he was a great and wise king" I asked, memories of us together flooded my mind. He smiled and said "A few years after your death, I left the palace, I hear from time to time that he was handling it nicely." I sighed then put a small melancholic smile "that's great to hear, It looks like he was happy..." I said.
He checks his watch and says "I'm sure you have more questions but I need to go"

already?...
if you want to talk about it again, here..." He gives me a card with his number on it. "Oh! I almost forgot...take care of this..." He handed me the handkerchief and said " It's really precious, never loose it" "what is this?" I asked "A memory of your dear king" he said smiling quite warmly, standing up ready to leave when I grabbed his arm making him stop "Wait! I have one more question... Before he became king, you said I couldn't do anything to change history since it was already written down before I even came, so what's the point of my being there?" I asked honestly, gripping on the handkerchief tight. He made me let go on my grasp of his arm and said "It was the Heaven's will putting you in that situation, you helped a lot, an original foresee of how it would have flowed/happened without you was more ruthless and bloody than how things happened now. It was for the better." And with that, he left.
