“Ah… Uh, ah…”

Shin Jeong-ah screamed like a newborn while looking at the turned off screen.

What was contained in that small, square machine that did not emit any light was myself with a half-lost face.

“Oh, no. Please, not this…!”

I took out my cell phone from my bag and called my beloved boyfriend.

The signal goes on and then goes off.

The other side refused to take the call.

At the same time as the sound broke, she felt something snapping inside her.

She didn’t know if it was reason or her last remaining hope.

“No… no…!”

Shin Jeong-ah crawled on the floor with her knees.

Her bare legs bruised as they touched the rough surface of the road.

Shin Jeong-ah was not in a relaxed state to care about that small but painful wound.

“I can explain everything… I can explain it…”

It happens. Walk a few steps. My legs give out and I collapse.

It happens again. Walk a few steps. My legs give out and I collapse.

Wounds occur. Still, it happens….

Now run.

Although her lungs hurt from the sudden running, Shin Jeong-ah was fine.

Shin Jeong-ah becomes increasingly distant from Yoon Sia.

The path that Shin Jeong-ah was walking down was the same path that she took to attack Yoon Shi-ah.

Retracing her path, she heads somewhere.

“Seo, let me explain. My, let me explain… I can explain…”

She was going back to where her boyfriend lived.

I believe that just as we retrace our steps, we can also revert our relationships…

Yoon Sia looked at the street where Shin Jeong-ah, who had left her mind in disarray as if a typhoon had blown up, had disappeared.

“Huh….”

Her legs seemed to have given out and she sat down on the ground.

Although he had prepared well, if there had been a little mistake, he would have been the one to lie face down on this earth.

About ten minutes like that.

Due to the tension and excitement that came later, she closed her eyes for a moment and caught her breath.

Just when I thought I had passed a critical juncture, Yoon Sia opened her eyes.

I thought she ran away simply out of shock, but when I thought about it again, I had a feeling that Shin Jeong-ah was unlikely to do that.

“Inho’s house?”

Yoon Si-ah suddenly got up and ran in the direction where Shin Jeong-ah disappeared.

Then I called Inho.

‘You must never open the door!’

Unlike before, the call did not continue.

“Oh, why aren’t you accepting it!”

Out on the street and hailing a taxi, Yoon Sia was irritated by her nervousness.

***

Relief at first and then anger.

“Inho! Open the door… I can explain. So please.”

Shin Jeong-ah’s voice shouts while shaking the gate.

He leaned his back against the front door, letting it fall like raindrops.

The warmth of the cold tiles moved down my buttocks and back to my head.

A video call from Yoon Sia came out of nowhere.

In-ho was relieved to learn the truth of what had happened in that phone call he unexpectedly received.

I was angry for a moment at the fact that I was manipulated by Shin Jeong-ah, but that didn’t last long.

Because I understand that she would do something like this because she was unstable.

Relief at first and then anger.

And now conflict.

“Ah….”

I exhale my voice like cigarette smoke.

What are you trying to correct?

He laughed self-deprecatingly.

“He acted like he was proud and like he realized everything…”

In the end, it looks like this again.

Where did the snowball come from?

Did you increase the distance between you and Shin Jeong-ah too suddenly? Or was he being too cooperative with Yoon Sia?

Even after looking back, I can’t think of anything clearly wrong.

Even if I were to go back, I don’t think I would have done anything different from what I chose back then.

That’s why I feel discouraged.

About dimensional movement, about possession,

As if I realized everything, as if I understood everything,

As if something could be achieved here,

I thought so and made a mistake.

However, an ending similar to the dimension he has been through so far is calling him from the front door of his house.

He was worried. What should I do now?

What would it be like if we opened the door and welcomed Shin Jeong-ah back into the house?

If so, Shin Jeong-ah’s rampage could be put to rest.

But is that correct?

If I accept her, can I be sure that something like this won’t happen again?

Conversely, what if Shin Jeong-ah is kicked out using this incident as an excuse?

Wouldn’t the anger of Shin Jeong-ah, who went on a rampage, be directed at the person she loved?

Which is correct?

While I was thinking about it, I heard the sound of a car.

And red and blue light quietly entered the living room outside the window.

“What, what!”

Shin Jeong-ah’s voice sounds like she’s embarrassed.

“Uh-huh, student. You shouldn’t make a fuss like this at night. Reports are coming in.”

I hear an adult’s voice for the first time. It seems to be a man and a woman.

“It is just as the reporter said. Female student.”

“Let go!! Inho!! no way? Did you call it? Inho!!”

“Student, first of all… Wow! Senior, this is him!”

Perhaps because of the strong resistance, a woman asks for help.

There was a commotion outside the door, but it soon quieted down.

The red and blue lights move away.

Along with that, the sound of cars fades away.

The silence that came suddenly.

And a few minutes later.

The doorbell rang.
