nineteen

                                    

                                          

When Wonwoo finally fell asleep, I went outside to go and get some air. It felt suffocating telling him everything. 
                          
Even the things between us in the real world, I told him. It hurted but that's the real deal and I can't do anything about it.
                          
"Hello young lady."
                          
I literally flinched when I heard a familiar voice from behind, and when I looked back, it was really the person i had in mind.
                          
But how come she's here? Around here?
                          
"H—Hello Ma'am.", She walked closer to me. Knowing the fact that she's the one who brought me here, I couldn't help but feel her strong aura.
                          
"You seem bothered.", She said. And yes, she's extremely right. Everything that's happening is seriously bothering me that getting crazy wouldn't even surprise me no more.
                          
But having her in here right now, seemed to enlighten me. I could ask her some things and hopefully she could give me the answers that I need.
                          
"Uhm.. if it's okay... may I ask a question?"
                          
"Yes, as you may."
                          
"You know... Wonwoo, right?", She just nodded with a slight smile on her face. 
                          
"Uhm... I'm just confused of what happened to the real world's him when he's here? And what about me? Did I get replaced?"
                          
"You see young lady, the world where you came from, the world you're supposed to be at, stopped."
                          
My lips parted. As what she has told me, this world existed for me, and all the people here are the same as the people from the real world? Only the way their living is different, that is.
                          
"So if you decide to go back. The time there would run again and this world will vanish. Everyone will go back to the life they had and you're the only immortal that knows it."
                          
I don't know if I should feel proud or what but even if I do, I feel really scared. 
                          
Who knows that my unintentional wish that was intended to be a joke would turn out like this?
                          
I should really stop seeing everything as a joke.
                          
"You still have a month left to think everything thoroughly. But...", I faced her. "It seems like you're really happy in here, you're happiness is my only will in granting your wish so... I hope I will not see you thirty two days later..."
                          
I couldn't help but smile at her and get touched by what she said. She really is like a fairy godmother.



                          
The next day, it felt unusual that I was the one who woke up first, but since he drank last night, it's understandable that he would get really sleepy.
                          
I was watching television when I suddenly heard footsteps coming from the stairs, and when I tend my eyes to it, I saw him coming down, his eyes barely opening with his messy hair.
                          
"Good morning.", I said as he walked closer towards where I was at. 
                          
"Morning."
                          
"I bought you a hangover soup. You should have a sip."
                          
A smile crept on his face as he stepped closer to me.
                          
But my eyes rounded when he suddenly kissed my head before walking towards the kitchen.
                          
I swear, he's full of surprises.


                          
After minutes, and after he finished eating. He went back to the living room and sat beside me on the couch.
                          
"Feeling better?", I asked. 
                          
"Yeah, but my head still hurts a little."
                          
"That's for drinking a lot."
                          
"I didn't drink a lot.", He faced me and I just chuckled looking at him.
                          
"You did."
                          
"I didn't, really—"
                          
"Oh wait! It's starting!", I exclaimed after I tended my eyes on the screen and saw that one of my favorite show is showing.
                          
"What's that?", He asked. 
                          
"I Can See Your Voice.", But a smile crept on my face when I remembered that they guested on one of the episodes. It was really funny, most especially the part where Woozi, Seungkwan, DK, Hoshi and Wonwoo had to lip-sync.
                          
"He's really good.", Wonwoo commented when one mystery singer started singing and it turned out he was good.
                          
"You're good too.", I said but my eyes were still fixed on the screen.
                          
"Have you heard me sing?", Tons of times.
                          
"Do you like singing? Or like there's something about music that seems to move you?", I asked still not looking at him, but I just heard him click his tongue.
                          
"Actually, I once auditioned.", I immediately faced him. "For experience, that is."
                          
"D—Did you pass?"
                          
"Yeah...but why do you look so surprised?"
                          
I pursed my lips and thought that, isn't this a completely paralleled world?
                          
"But what happened?"
                          
"I quitted when we started dating...", I felt like a million of bullets went past through my chest after hearing what he said. "It wasn't allowed at the company, so I just decided to stop training."
                          
How can I not feel guilty when because of me, in this world, he didn't get to have what he really wanted. 
                          
There's really something about him and music that can't be broke.
                          
"And I'm sorry if I hadn't tell you."
                          
"N—No, it's okay..."
                          
I brought back my eyes back infront, feeling extremely guilty every second I remember him and his idol career.
                          
His happiness is really unmeasurable when he's at stage, when he's achieving his dream...and I can't believe I got in between.
                          
So much for my wish.
