"No!! " I yelled as I woke up from my deep sleep. I had a nightmare again. I breathed heavily and held my chest. I had been dreaming the same dream too many times now. But I don't know what does it means.
Why do I kept dreaming the same thing?
"It was the worst dream I've ever had " I mumbled and suddenly, I felt so thirsty. Maybe because the dream was too harsh for me.
With a tired body, I walked towards a table on the corner of my room to take some water. Unfortunately, there was no water left. But I thought I had ask Mrs Song to refill up the water.
I sighed and walked to the door. I wanted to have a hot tea. Maybe it can help me to sleep afterwards.
As I reached the kitchen, I saw a shadow. That means someone was there. But who would stay awake at this time? It's 2 a.m.
I shrugged and continued my steps into the kitchen. There, I saw Aera was making a drink. Hearing my footsteps, she turned her head and she saw me. "Jimin " she spoke. She seemed surprised a bit to see me at this hour.
"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be sleeping right now? " I asked. She sighed and looked down at the tea she was making. "Yeah, I'm supposed to be sleeping but I awaken. So decided to make something to drink " she answered.
"Why? Did the air conditioner in your room broke down? Just ask Uncle Seon to repair them. " I said but she shook her head.
"No, there was no problem about my room. I just had a nightmare " she said. Nightmare?
"You had a nightmare? That's why you can't sleep? " I asked and she nodded. "Yeah, the nightmare has been hunting me for the pass few days. I don't why. But it really distracts my sleep. That's why I make a hot tea to calm myself down. " she added
I sat on the counter and looked at her actions. "Do you want me to make one for you? " she offered. I think for awhile and nodded my head. "Hot tea with no sugar " I said.
She nodded and started making me a tea. "Here you go " she said once the tea was done.

She sat across me and we started drinking our teas. We acted normal at first but a moment later, I started noticing that she was acting awkwardly. Probably because it was the first time we sat together alone like this.
She kept looking at the wall and glanced to see if I was looking at her. It was quite funny seeing her like this.
I sighed, "I've finished the tea. Thank you, it tastes good ". I complimented her. Her face lightened up, "You're welcome " she smiled.
"I'm going to my room back. Don't forget to turn off the heater when you're done " I said and she somehow looks sad when I'm leaving. She sighed, "Goodnight "
It was my recess time. I had no appetite to eat so I decided to just stay in my office. I took out my phone from my handbag and opened the Internet.
Suddenly, I thought about a great idea. I never knew who was Jimin's dad and how does he looks. So how about I searched for him on the Internet?
Besides, his dad is the President so I bet he has a lot of his photos on the Internet. Without wasting any second, I started typing his name.
Park Junghwan, the President of Seoul
Then, hundreds image of an old man popped out. I focused on the photo and stared at it for a few minutes. It looked so familiar. I know he's a President and well known. But it was the very first time I'm seeing his picture. How can I feel like I've know him before?
I forced myself to remember but failed. I groaned and heaved a deep sigh. I'll just claim that it was just my feelings. Because yeah, how can an ordinary girl like me have known a President like him, right?
I sighed and pushed my phone away. Why do everything felt so weird lately? I started to feel that I don't know myself.
With a heavy sigh, I opened back my sketchbook and continued my work. At least I can do something beneficial to kill some time.
I made my way to my car. I was so fatigued since I had a lot of works to do. I can't wait to reach home because I needed my beauty sleep.

As I was walking towards my car, I heard someone was running with a loud giggle. It sounded like a kid. But how can a kid be at a car park at this hour? I stopped my steps and turned around to figure out where was the sound came from.
Then, I saw a girl around 5 years old was running towards a black car. She had a big red balloon in her hand. Everything seemed fine but not until I saw a car was about to hit the girl.
"Watch out! " I yelled and tried to save her but I was too far. I covered my eyes because I thought the girl was already get hit by the car since I heard a loud noise. But when I opened my eyes, I saw the car was already gone and what left just a man and the girl.
The man was hugging the girl so tightly. What make me more shocked was when I noticed the guy who saved the girl was Jimin. I gasped and ran towards them.
I looked at the girl who was crying and turned to Jimin. His arm was bleeding. Suddenly, a woman come to us. "Oh my daughter " she said in relief once she saw her daughter was fine.
"Jimin, wake up! " I yelled while shaking his body. He opened his eyes and winced in pain. But when I turned to look at him, he changed his expression directly. He hid his pain from me.
"Are you okay? " I asked and he nodded his head. I thought he was telling me the truth but when I saw blood was running down from his head, I know that he lied to me.
"There's blood coming down from your head! " I yelled and he held his head with his hand. He stared at the blood on his hand and turned to me. Few seconds later, he collapsed before he could say anything.
"Jimin! "
"Ms Aera! Where's Jimin? " Uncle Seon asked while trying to catch his breath. With a pale face, I looked at him and gulped down. My throat was dried because I had been crying for the whole ride to the hospital.
"He's still in the ward. The doctor asked me to wait outside " I answered while praying for Jimin. I hope nothing bad happens to him.
Uncle Seon sat beside me and asked "What happened to him? How can he got hit by the car? ". I wasn't ready to tell him about the incident yet but I needed to.
"He saved a kid from getting hit by the car " I answered and tears started forming in my eyes again. I don't know why I kept crying. I didn't expect that seeing Jimin in pain would affect me.
Even he never shows me his love, but staying in the same house with him is enough to make me fall for him. The efforts I put in to know him, it makes my love grew for him. Even he rejected my efforts many times, but it didn't break me. Instead, it make me fall harder for him.
He make me works hard just to know him.
But I didn't know why I realized about it now. Seeing him passed out in my arms— it breaks me even more. Now I know how hurt it feels seeing the person you love getting hurt. It felt like something sharp was ripping your heart out. It hurts a lot.
"Ms, please don't cry " Uncle Seon said, trying to console me from crying even more. I cried my heart out.
I sniffled, " I saw blood on his head. I saw the nurses gave him injections, I saw the doctors transfer the oxygen to his mouth with many tubes— How am I supposed to not crying? "
"He's in pain " I cried and hugged him. I really need someone to hug everytime I cry. Yes, it will make me cry even more. But at least I'll feel better soon.
"I know Jimin's strong. So don't worry because he'll be fine " Uncle Seon while patting my back. I hope he was telling me the truth.
Even someone seems cold and strong from the outside, it doesn't mean that they're strong on the inside too. We can't judge people by how they act. Because we never know the story behind it.

After all, he would risk everything for freedom and the right to be a mage. But how’s a scrub to learn Magic and get power? Why, join the magical under belly of the city, of course. And eat all the mana that he can get. Two Disclaimers: 1) This is a work of fiction. Any characters, places, organisations and everything else in this novel are fictional. Any resemblance between anything in this novel and the plane of reality we live in is purely coincidental. Was that a bit over the top and a wee bit unnecessary? Maybe. 2) This story features an antihero with a slight hint of villainy. So, sooner or later, it’s going to get dark. Very dark. Hence all the tags.
