Have you seen my world?(English version) - Chapter 1

January 24, 2014

Alone again.

Dad, as always, is away on a business trip. My sister and brother are at our relatives’ place.

The house is empty and echoing—like even the walls sigh from loneliness.

I put on some music, slipped in my headphones, and lay down on the couch.

Through the rhythm of the bass, I suddenly heard a whisper:

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguHoQHnh2P

:Do you want to see your past self? Come closer… and everything will change.”

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCLtztmlbY

My heart froze.

I took off my headphones and looked at the bedroom door.

There was something about that voice… cold, but tempting.

Like someone was calling me from within the darkness itself.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluXCXhI7l5

I took a step toward the door. Then another.

As I got closer, everything grew quieter. The air thickened like smoke.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDumYavfSX

I reached for the doorknob—and suddenly stopped breathing.

The world shrank to a single point.

Darkness swallowed me.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAjx5TVbob

I woke up. But I wasn’t… me.

The world looked strange: the colors were brighter, the sounds—muffled.

And most of all—I didn’t feel alone.

She was inside me.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYyLX2ytAj

:Who are you?

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxYGuSfa9C

But instead of an answer, I saw people. Standing still.

Dead.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iuPQPwf1D

I screamed, ran out of the house, not even knowing where I was going.

Only in the park did I stop to catch my breath.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzfLf4hK5T

I sat on a swing, trying to feel real again.

But something pulsed in my chest.

Like a heart—but not mine.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoFuw6DKnI

:Hi! a voice suddenly said.

A girl with short hair and freckles stood in front of me.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVB52kdcJ6Y

:Let’s be friends? I’m Yoon So Ra. And you?

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbYYrgOwxB

:Chae Eun. Nice to meet you.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZb8bAUOeYj

Yoon So Ra: Want some ice cream? There’s a new place nearby. It’s amazing!

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZ1OAnEgw7

:Sure…

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpkDSyvJSq

We walked down the road when my head started spinning again.

Flashes of memories that weren’t mine.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb72t68udNK

I touch the ground—it cracks.

I look at someone—they slowly turn to dust.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpO8zER2awp

This isn’t me…

But I feel it. Like I did it.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVVyQKQSno

Yoon So Ra (scared): Are you okay?

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsTj7wF5X0

:Yeah… just a headache…

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqj9NCiZOl

I tried to smile, but it was hard to breathe.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3XeO1kg8n

Yoon So Ra: Let’s sit down for a bit.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3rV5bbqQ8

We sat on a bench. I looked up at the sky, trying to focus on anything else.

But something inside me burst out again.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihxlUPo7P9

:Finally… I’m back, a voice whispered inside.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28hStfrtef

I jumped up.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyO2FL3bnO

:I need to go home. I just…

I couldn’t even finish the sentence—I nearly ran off.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIlFag9saU

When I got home, the room smelled like smoke.

Black marks covered the floor, like ash.

And the mirror… for a split second, someone else’s smile appeared on my face.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUONCrzTvG

:Who are you?

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1lE4sn6xG

The next morning, I went to the library.

I sat at the old computer and typed:

"ancient beings that feed on emotions"

"do souls exist after death"

"legend of Morania"

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qYcAjkbXN

But there were only fragments.

Morania—a being born from pain and love.

A creature that feeds on emotions and… can possess humans.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIl08spfBj

A knock on the door.

I turned—and there stood my grandmother. I hadn’t seen her since summer.

Silent, as if she already knew.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyT6DleA9v

:You can feel her, can’t you? She whispered.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGDNrvBtow

G:She’s awakened…

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6orBVylBw1

:Who?

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGfCqmwINx

G:Morania. She’s inside you, child.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36d8sgRmnB

I shrank back.

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOseZEpeo3

:Go away! I… I don’t want to know!

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKO5WtOJsa

Grandma stepped closer and softly said:

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ173P6VxcN8

G:Then listen. Or she’ll destroy everything you love.

You still hav

68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rqPKzQ9Zo

e a choice, Chae Eun… for now…”

She chose you.

Now you’re either her prison… or her weapon.
