So-Won looked at the big house and remembered the story he saw on the Internet one day.
He doesn’t know if it’s because Tae-Woo didn’t ask him why he didn’t live in an apartment, but So-Won remembered what he saw on the news before.
When a monster just came out of a gate in the city, Tae-Woo collapsed a high-rise apartment over the monster’s head with a single punch.
…
Even the image was transmitted in a video, and the whole nation saw it.
Since then, Tae-Woo has been severely criticized.
For destroying an apartment where all the people were evacuated.
If a huge monster out of the gate had gone on a rampage, the damage would have been incomparable to that of an apartment, but no one seemed to think about it.
Tae-Woo was just criticized for saving people.
So-Won took a short breath in front of the front door and rang the doorbell.
Tae-Woo gave him the password, but So-Won thought it was polite to ring the doorbell and enter because it was his first visit anyway.
The door burst open after a while.
So-Won could see Tae-Woo with a serious expression.
“Hello.” Tae-Woo said.
So-Won, who faced Tae-Woo’s face without notice, hurriedly bowed his head as if he were greeting him.
So-Won was still scared of Tae-Woo.
He still haven’t gotten used to it, so he would be frozen if he looked so closely.
Still, So-Won’s body wasn’t so stiff that he couldn’t even move like last time.
That’s a relief.
As time went by, So-Won overcome his fear of Tae-Woo little by little.
“I’ll show you the room.” Tae-Woo said.
As So-Won went inside, the familiar interior welcomed him.
The neat interior of the achromatic tone, consisting of white, gray, and black, looked a little lame because there were only necessary items without interior design.
The living room was connected to the second floor with a perforated ceiling, boasting a high floor height that was cool and not stuffy.
The familiar air and Tae-Woo’s body odor were also faintly felt, so So-Won even felt glad.
So-Won followed Tae-Woo up to the second floor.
Based on the stairs, So-Won’s room was originally on the left.
So-Won naturally climbed the stairs and turned to his room.
However, Tae-Woo, who was ahead, guided So-Won in the opposite direction.
Surprised, he looked at his previous room and Tae-Woo alternately.
“You can stay here.” Tae-Woo said.
The place Tae-Woo guided was right across from Tae-Woo’s room.
As he followed Tae-Woo, he looked confused.
When So-Won opened the door, the luggage he had sent in the morning was piled up in a box in the room.
‘Is my memory wrong?’So-Won thought.
Originally, So-Won’s room and Tae-Woo’s room were the farthest away, but now it’s the closest.
So-Won, embarrassed, eventually asked Tae-Woo.
“Where is Tae-Woo’s room?”
“It’s on the opposite side.” Tae-Woo casually pointed to the room next to him.
So-Won was shocked.
No matter how much So-Won thought about it, he couldn’t figure out why the room was changed.
“Do you not like it?” Tae-Woo asked.
“No! I like it!” So-Won answered.
It was such an awkward reaction that even a passing child could notice that it was a lie.
Well, it’s not good to live with a monster.
Tae-Woo decided to leave, so that So-Won could relax a little.
“Make yourself at home.” Tae-Woo turned around and entered his room.
It was not until Tae-Woo’s door was completely closed that So-Won looked around his room.
The size and shape of the room did not change, but the location of the windows and doors changed, making it awkward.
In addition, thinking that Tae-Woo’s room was across from him, So-Won was careful about all his actions in the room.
For dinner, So-Won came down to the first floor at the time Tae-Woo told him, and there was warm food prepared in the kitchen.
Tae-Woo’s house was served by a cook at a fixed time, and Tae-Woo and So-Won in the past were would eat them separately.
So-Won still didn’t have the courage to eat while looking at Tae-Woo’s face.
The dark red veins naturally made So-Won lose his appetite.
He recalled the day he first came to Tae-Woo’s house while eating familiar food.
So-Won was confined to his room without eating for a few days, and one day, a sandwich was placed in front of So-Won’s room.
The sandwich from eight year ago came to his mind.
A moist bread neither warm nor cold, lettuce and tomatoes that tasted sweet and sour.
It was a very simple ingredient, but it was the most delicious sandwich So-Won has ever eaten in his life.
However, most of the foods that are usually served in the meal are Korean food, so sandwiches have never been served since then.
So-Won smacked his lips thinking about that sandwich after a long time.
When So-Won came to Tae-Woo’s house, he wanted to eat that sandwich.
Thinking of the sandwich, So-Won emptied the rice.
Even if it wasn’t a sandwich, all the dishes on the table were to the taste of So-Won.
So-Won roughly organized what he ate and opened the refrigerator familiarly to take out a bottle of water.
This house hasn’t changed in eight years.
Thanks to this, even though So-Won returned to the past, he knew where the things are located.
So-Won headed to the room waving a water bottle in his hand.
So-Won walked lightly.
He was so worried before coming to Tae-Woo’s house, but now it was nothing.
The painful memories of the past were neither hard to recall nor depressing.
So-Won is just a little concerned about the room that has changed without knowing the reason, and now there is Tae-Woo nearby.
He accidentally shut the door hard as he entered the room.
There was a pretty loud noise, but So-Won didn’t care about it.
The soundproof was one of the reasons why So-Won liked this house.
Tae-Woo’s house was soundproof enough to not only hear the outside sound but also the sound from the house.
There were times when that fact was a drawback.
The quiet house, as if left alone in the world. It was good for melancholy thoughts, but it failed to warn So-Won that Tae-Woo came home.
So So-Won sometimes walked around quickly without knowing that Tae-Woo had come home, and then he would ran away to the room in a panic when he encountered him looking down at him.
Then Tae-Woo would quickly leave the house again.
The horror of that time was still vivid, but now So-Won was just endlessly sorry.
Even in the house that was supposed to be his resting place, it seemed like So-Won had driven Tae-Woo away.
How did Tae-Woo live during the eight years he didn’t have a guide?
Even in the association with Tae-Woo’s private room, he was an unwelcome monster.
Even Tae-Woo’s space, was taken away from him by So-Won.
That may be why he entered the gate more often.
Tae-Woo said a monster needs to be with a monster.
So-Won, who was arranging his luggage, suddenly realized that a lot of time had passed.
It was already approaching midnight.
‘I’m only halfway done.’ So-Won thought.
Once So-Won took everything out of the box, the floor was messy.
So-Won took a glance at the messy room and shook his head.
It’s too late today.
It was better to wash up first and clean up tomorrow.
So-Won turned away from the messy room.
So-Won received water from a large bathtub across from the entrance.
The size of the bathtub that seemed to fit Tae-Woo’s body was twice the size and depth of the regular bathtub.
The tub is his favorite item in Tae-Woo’s house since he likes to be submerged in water.
In the past, since So-Won got used to this place a little, he always took a rest in the bathtub when Tae-Woo was not home.
“Ah…” So-Won soaking in warm water made a satisfactory sound.
The fatigue of the day was relieved.
So-Won’s eyes, who didn’t sleep well these days, closed languidly.
It felt good.
For some reason, So-Won thought he could sleep well without having nightmares.
By the time his hands and feet were burning, So-Won poured water from the bathtub.
So-Won watched the water, which had risen to the end, getting lower and lower, and reluctantly got up from the bathtub.
So-Won, who was wiping his body with a white and soft towel, made eye contact with himself in the mirror.
After having a good night’s sleep after a long time, the face washed clean from head to toe was bright as if the light was on.
So-Won ate dinner well, so his cheeks looked chubby more than usual.
He smiled contentedly.
So-Won really didn’t think he’d have a nightmare today.
After returning to the room, So-Won buried himself in a soft blanket.
His whole body was fluffy.
The scent of expensive body lotion in the bathroom lingered pleasantly around.
The blanket gently wrapped around the body, and the air conditioner on the ceiling blew cool winds, making the air pleasant.
It was a perfect place to sleep.
So-Won closed his eyes.
Soon after, So-Won woke up in a hurry.
So-Won’s eyelids blocked the light, so it had to be dark in front of his eyes, but So-Won felt like he saw something.
So-Won blinked nervously and closed his eyes again thinking it would be an illusion, but he opened them again quickly.
So-Won tossed and turned for a long time.
Still couldn’t fall asleep.
So-Won thought he’d be fine if he came here, but it was all an illusion.
The moment of Tae-Woo’s death, the operating room, which was filled with blood, continued to follow So-Won.
