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:

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw42jAN45Bs

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

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzDuHysUaw

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.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85Juoawrfi

I took a step toward the door. Then another.

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

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDvnzT0oIZ

I reached for the doorknob—and suddenly stopped breathing.

The world shrank to a single point.

Darkness swallowed me.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtsqOYJPbJ

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.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecK6pOcefo

:Who are you?

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ87Xn663ux

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

Dead.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr6qOWKtfS

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.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmGu5wQzFA

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

But something pulsed in my chest.

Like a heart—but not mine.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqbfn0l3Te

:Hi! a voice suddenly said.

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

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqS6M02xFA

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

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjutiF4NhC

:Chae Eun. Nice to meet you.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU04e7po6aZ

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

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt7mDSbBZ5

:Sure…

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABY084GEnP

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

Flashes of memories that weren’t mine.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbA6eGvmw1

I touch the ground—it cracks.

I look at someone—they slowly turn to dust.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbMEwPa5eb

This isn’t me…

But I feel it. Like I did it.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8a9GMu7Zse

Yoon So Ra (scared): Are you okay?

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroawP8dLsB

:Yeah… just a headache…

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkeDVyTz25

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

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDgjWgrR3L

Yoon So Ra: Let’s sit down for a bit.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bx9S1Jeb1

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

But something inside me burst out again.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLrsHIoOGx

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

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1n4zXAjz6

I jumped up.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDkvyVuv0D

:I need to go home. I just…

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

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnl0FASPOxc

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.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt50HNqW5Q

:Who are you?

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1x53ft3Nn

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"

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BqxFTq2k6

But there were only fragments.

Morania—a being born from pain and love.

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

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0r8o4OeQS

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.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZQbIFgSIW

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

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxlRiiEn9o

G:She’s awakened…

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3f4LwJeS1

:Who?

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJZhM62UTd

G:Morania. She’s inside you, child.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZ5PW8FDyA

I shrank back.

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxv2OChGM5M

:Go away! I… I don’t want to know!

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2UOjjiLIg

Grandma stepped closer and softly said:

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWeo7iZMAE

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

You still hav

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VR8kROdph

e a choice, Chae Eun… for now…”

She chose you.

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