"How are you?"
For the first time since I met Gong Tae Kwang, the silence between us was immensely suffocating.
He had helped me up gently once I got over my shock, leading me to the playground swingset where we had last said our goodbyes. He had carefully bandaged my scraped hands and knees, after purchasing a few things from a nearby pharmacy.
"Gong Tae Kwang," I spoke again. "How are you?"
He glanced up from his feet, before looking straight ahead. "What do you think, Lee Eun Bi?"
"It's Go Eun Bi now."
He hummed in response. "Go Eun Bi. It suits you." I bit my lip. What happened to the guy who wore his heart on his sleeve with me? In his place now was a blank-faced stranger who wouldn't even look at me. What happened to you? I wanted to ask. But you have no right to do so, my mind retorted. Not after what you've done to him.
"How am I?" he repeated, a slight catch in his voice. "I don't know. I've been surviving each day then the next. Shit like that. I go to school, sleep then go home. You know, the usual stuff. I rarely get in trouble nowadays though."
"Jinjja? That's good to hear. Ya, Gong Tae Kwang, you should focus more on your studies."
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly. "Ya, Go Eun Bi. I can handle myself now. You don't have to worry about me anymore. I've been doing just fine on my own for the past six months. Besides," he turned to me with a wry expression. "You've got someone else to do that to. Worry about, I mean. And care for."
I pretended not to hear his last statement. "By the way, how's your abeoji doing these days?"

"He's fine."
"I heard he was released a month ago."
"He was."
"Have you two finally made up?"
"What is it to you?" he finally snapped. "Why are you suddenly acting like you care about me?"
"Gong Tae Kwang-"
"Hajima. I know that you have a kind heart, Go Eun Bi. But I have also learned the hard way that kindness and love are two different things. I do not want to repeat the same mistake again. Six months may have gone by, but I know that nothing has changed."
He stood up abruptly. "The bus stop is nearby. You can find your way home, right?"
I rose to my feet as well. "Ne. Will I see you again?" I hated hearing the hope in my voice, but I couldn't help it.
"I don't know, Go Eun Bi. Mianhe."

Dear Spellbook (Rewrite)
Live. Study. Repeat. Tal never saw himself as an adventurer, but the call to adventure never much cared for his opinion. Despite his best efforts, his search for answers on the murder of his parents ever draws him into danger. Accompanied by a group of seasoned warriors, thus far Tal has gotten by on his own meager magical talents, but when one day he wakes up to find himself back in his bed of the night before, he is faced with a challenge he must conquer alone. What to expect: This story was born of an attempt to create in world lore reasons for many of the mechanics and tropes of D&D, but you do not need to know of them to enjoy the story. It's a single POV time loop story with slow paced progression fantasy elements. The story is not one of fast-paced power ups and non-stop action, but as it progresses, the action picks up. There is a lot of magic system exploration on a system built to unify the diverse magic of D&D into one cohesive magic system. The setting is an original world with familiar races and monsters but with new unique origins and motivations. The average chapter will be 2-5k words long, most being around 3k but there are a few less than 1k, due to the nature of the story telling device I used. Book 1 is complete. Posting is on hold until I finish book 2. Book 2 progress: The rough draft is done at 141656 words as of 7/9/2022. I need to reread and edit it but Im aiming for resuming chapters in September.
