Seoyoon, with her knees on the bed, shook Kanghyun’s shoulders, who was still turning away.

He didn’t react even when someone sensitive enough to wake up just from the rustling sound was shaking him. He must have taken a sleeping pill and fallen into a deep sleep.

While trying not to have bad thoughts, her chest felt strangely warm, and the ends of her words shook.

Seoyoon continued to shake Kanghyun.

“Oppa, wake up…”

Trying to suppress the trembling inside her, it was getting harder for her to think that he might never wake up again, remembering Seokwon’s warning.

“Oppa, Kanghyun! Wake up!”

Seoyoon grabbed Kanghyun’s shoulders with rough hands.

Even after turning his body to face her, there was no sign of his tightly closed eyes opening.

Seoyoon, stroking his pale cheek without a trace of color, brought her trembling fingers to Kanghyun’s nose.

Unable to judge whether it was because his breathing was small or because her hand was vibrating too much, she brought her ear close to Kanghyun’s heart.

“Oppa, I’m leaving.”

After checking the slowly rising and falling chest, she took out her phone.

Her fingers, which were supposed to dial 119, kept slipping, and tears welled up.

Trying to calm her heaving chest, she applied pressure to the fingertips, but Kanghyun’s arm, which had been stiff, moved slightly.

“Oppa!”

Kanghyun, who had lifted his eyelids very slowly, was looking at her.

His lips, parched to the point of cracking, were closed in a straight line, and only his pupils rolled.

“Oppa, are you okay? Are you okay?”

Kanghyun’s eye corners, which had been still for a few days, gradually turned red.

“Say something!
“Don’t wake me…”

“What?”

“I don’t want to get up.”

Terrified, Kanghyun murmured continuously, covering his eyes with his arm.

A sigh of relief, contained in Seoyoon’s breath, burst out.

Seoyoon, who soon opened her eyes, slapped Kanghyun’s shoulder.

“Wake up, quickly!”

The speed of understanding the situation was too slow, and each action was too sluggish. It seemed like she needed to take him to the hospital.

Kanghyun, who winced at the sudden shoulder shake, looked at Seoyoon again.

“Why.”

“Why? Look at yourself right now! Get up, we need to go to the hospital!”

Seoyoon grabbed Kanghyun’s arm, pulling him.

Kanghyun actually stared at the part where her hand seemed to touch.

Although there were times when Seoyoon hugged him, and sometimes their lips met, it was the first time he felt this sensation.

“It’s strange.”

“What’s strange about it! Get up quickly!”

“Touch me for a bit longer.”

Seoyoon, looking at Kanghyun with a helpless gaze, wiped away tears, then got off the bed.

“I’m leaving, I really don’t want to see you like this.”

“Yuna.”

In the dim and bright, blurry view, Seoyoon, who seemed so real, called his name, making Kanghyun burst into laughter.

Now, the delusional Seoyoon became unresponsive, not answering even when her name was called.

“Why! You’ll be in the living room, so pull yourself together and come out! It’s really hopeless, why…”

Seoyoon stared at the bewildered Kanghyun, who looked at her as if she was mad due to the effects of the medicine, then turned around and grabbed the doorknob.

Thud!

A sound, as if something had been shattered, echoed in the bedroom.

The floor seemed to shake as if an earthquake had occurred.

Surprised, Seoyoon, who was trying to go outside, trembled.

“Oppa!”

Realizing Seoyoon’s presence belatedly, Kanghyun, crawling down from the bed, weakly grabbed the leg that was about to turn around.

“Don’t go, Yuna. Don’t go.”

With all the strength drained from her body, Seoyoon sat down on the spot.

“I was wrong, don’t go.”

Her trembling arms quickly moved, and Kanghyun wrapped his entire body around Seoyoon.

“Really, ugh, I really hate it, Taekanghyun! Are you going to die like this? Did you take all those pills because you wanted to die? Ugh…”

Seoyoon, her chin against the ceiling like a child who lost her mother, burst into tears.

Her weak touch hit Kanghyun’s firm shoulder.

There was no way to stop the pouring tears.

If she had delayed a little longer as Sejian, spent one or two more days in the hotel.

Thinking that something might have broken when she returned to him, an ominous chill ran through her entire body.
