M E M O R I Z E

The dizzy vision became clear.

I could see the woman speaking clearly.

I stare back at her, stumbling and stumbling.

The hair in the sky was short enough to cover my neck like it was forcibly cut on the fly.

The big, distinctive eyes that sparkled like stars in the night sky loosened blurrily like dead fish.

It was right after the war with the western continent and the Vagabond Alliance.

And Yoohyun...

“Seung Hyun oppa. And Dahee.”

Suddenly, I lost my mind in my voice.

“They're good people to know. And you had to kill him? ”

I feel strange seeing Yoohyun slowly approaching.

I have to say, it's new.

“Me. I'm not here to gloat. No, I won't. I won't, so please answer me. ”

Yeah, it is.

“We……. How did this happen? ”

I definitely heard the same thing.

“I just wanted to get along with you.... ”

I could not connect the words, and I heard the sound of swallowing.

“But I didn't have to. ”

Even my voice trembled faintly.

“I can never forgive.... ”

Yoohyun stopped walking in front of his nose and rolled his hands.

“Still.”

Heavy silence.

Soon, my lips were trembling with difficulty.

“I'm sorry.... I wanted to hear a heartfelt apology. ”

The tears that were full of tears came down my eyes.

At the same time, Yoohyun sat down as if he had collapsed.

It was a miserable and pathetic mortal that could not even be compared to Yoohyun in that world.

I stared down at her tears, killing her.

At that time, what was not heard and what was not seen now is visible.

I don't really remember what I said back then.

But you don't have to think about it.

There's only one reason I came back at this point.

I carefully placed my hands on the crown below my eyes.

“! ”

A massive twitch was spread through the palm of the hand.

She takes off her robe and traverses her cold body, then slowly kneels down to one knee and looks at her.

Yoohyun looked at me with a crazy face, saying he couldn't believe it.

I opened my mouth quietly without avoiding the piercing glance.

“If you apologize, can you forgive me? ”

At that moment, my eyes were like rotten incense.

“Or how can you forgive me and comfort me? ”

“…… how……." What? ”

The sound of words that seemed to be disconnected became strangely sharp.

“If it was you, do you think you could forgive me? ”

No, I don't.

I won't be able to

“How I survived losing two of them.... I don't know what he did... Do you even know?”

We don't know, but we can guess.

“You know what?"

Yoohyun sadly raised his voice.

Tear the collar of the robe I wore, making every effort.

“But how can I forgive you...? ”

Yoohyun bit his mouth to make his lower lip white.

The taste was bitter.

Yoohyun from another world said he would forgive me.

But just by apologizing, who can accept that and forgive that?

Even though the opponent is Holy Queen Yoohyun, I never expected things to go so easily.

Because it wasn't a word for an apology.

“My past is filled with very difficult and harsh memories. There are so many things that I still don't want to think about. ”

That's why.

“Then, when I first met you, I.... I think he was strangely obsessed with it. I didn't even consider the other direction. Maybe we could get along just like you said. ”

However.

“I would sometimes think that after what happened at the inn. But every time I did that, I did not forcibly forget or rationalize myself and think deeply about it. No, I didn't want to. ”

Because.

“Maybe……. Admitting that I was wrong. I think he was afraid to deny the decades. ”

Yoohyun became confused as if he didn't know what he was talking about.

The opening of my mouth again was after a little while.

“Suddenly……. Why are you doing this? ”

A boiling voice comes from below your head.

“You just have to say something formally. Why...! ”

I shake my head hard, my hand slipping away, and I scream.

The sound of the voice was mixed with tears that were hard to understand.

“Yoohyun, I... ”

“I can't admit it. ”

The hot voice suddenly cooled.

Yoohyun raised his head roughly.

“Now come and say this. ”

It distorts its face, staring at me with its vengeful eyes.

“You're self-satisfied because you want to be free of guilt anyway……! ”

“Well……. ”

And I...

“If you say it with a straight cut. ”

It was immediate.

Yoohyun's face gradually became dazed.

Like I heard an unexpected answer.

But what she said was true.

“No matter how much you smile.... Every time I think of you, a corner of my heart becomes uncomfortable. Sometimes it gets clogged up. I hated that. ”

Because I'm annoying.

I'm uncomfortable.

Speaking of which, it's kind of funny.

But these self-centered words were true inside of me.

“What about Seung Hyun? ”

Yoohyun, who was grinning at my mouth, barely opened his mouth.

“What about Da Hee?”

“ ……. ”

“…… Me! ”

“So I'm going to change it. ”

My voice in my ears was incredibly bold.

“Change.... Really?”

“Yes, Cha Seung Hyun and Ban Da-hee. A world where these two people are alive. ”

“ ……? ”

“And into a world where you can live. ”

If it were the way it was, Yoohyun, the desperate one, would have begged me to kill him.

I cut her throat without hesitation.

Not here.

It changes everything related, including my relationship with Yoohyun.

It was something I was prepared for.

I took a breath to see Yoohyun looking at me with his lost expression.

“But there's one thing I need to do first. ”

I grabbed hold of my pathetic saggy shoulders.

And slowly lift it up, raising the body together.

We stood up again.

“Yoohyun.”

Yoohyun's eyes became wide as if he had woken up.

A slightly dead pupil, but it restores its polite color.

I took a few steps back from her devastated face.

Then he opens his mouth, bending his lower back slightly.

You have to do it now.

What I couldn't say then.

“At that time, I took you at your leisure and committed an outrageous act. ”

But...

“It made you sick. ”

I can say it now.

“I'm so sorry. ”

I can see the ground.

Suddenly, a white snowball drops down and touches the ground under the shadow of the earth spider.

It turned out that there was a little bit of snow on the shoes, but there was a spill.

Hey.

Was it snowing at this point?

I don't think so...

“No way.”

After some time, Yoohyun said.

“I can't believe you're actually apologizing.... I didn't know……. ”

Somewhere, the voice that sounded vaguely rested.

On the other hand, it felt like the poison was spiked all at once.

I stretched my waist slowly.

Yoohyun's face was still overflowing with tears.

I reached out my hand and wiped my tears like I was touching the horse.

“I thought I had changed. But not at all. ”

“Su, Soo-hyun. I, I... ”

“I told you before, so I'm going to change it. You, of course, for myself. ”

“…… Yes? ”

There was an easier way.

But I didn't just choose that way.

It doesn't solve the problem, it just covers up my darkest memories.

So I came here first.

Now….

“I'm going back now. ”

Now, back to the first time we met.

From there everything changes.

Is he gonna be okay?

Maybe it's not okay.

If there is an angle of trust, there is only zero code.

“To the end.”

I turned to where I could feel the zero cord.

But before I left, I turned around and looked back.

Yoohyun stood there with no reaction, just a feeling of awkwardness.

“When we meet again. ”

I smiled at her as much as I could.

“I want you to see your smiling face. ”

*

You hear the door of the tree open, itchy.

“Hey……. I heard there's someone here named Kim Soo-hyun. ”

At the same time, the voice that I had been waiting for rang out at the entrance to the inn.

All eyes turn to the door, including me.

There.

“Hello! Is Kim Soo-hyun here? ”

She was there.

It's been a long time since I've seen a smiling face without worrying about the world.

“Soo-hyun Kim is here. Who are you?”

“There you are. Thank goodness."

As Vivian points at me, Yoohyun sweeps his heart and sighs of relief.

“Ah! I am the new Beech Tree Clan Road, the chief clan of the Cow City Mule, and I am Yoohyun, the third-year user. Nice to meet you!”

“This is Cha Seung-hyun, a third year user. ”

The man who was standing next to me with a frowny impression also greeted him with a mid-tone voice.

I stood up trying to look natural.

“Yes, I'm Kim Soo-hyun. ”

And softly said.

“Nice to meet you. Yoohyun the user.”

At that moment, Yoohyun's footsteps that were coming in loud stopped.

Suddenly, she blinks quickly, like a shocked person.

A moment later, his apricot cheeks were filled with a dark bud glow.

Her nose flushes and her eyes flash down.

What is it?

Was my smile weird?

“To……. ”

“ ……? ”

“Now, I want to talk to you for a moment.... I want to go in... ”

“Oh, come in. ”

I grabbed Yoohyun's wriggling hand.

Then she lets out a groaning sound.

Soon after, Yoohyun and I sat down.

Goonju grumbles and brings a cup of tea.

“Ah. Thank you. ”

I gazed back at the Holy Queen, who had lost her face and was in tumult.

“I……. If you look too much... I'm so ashamed... ”

As she rolls her eyes around and takes the cup of tea to her mouth, she suddenly looks at me and cries.

“I'm sorry."

“No! You don't have to apologize...! ”

I was embarrassed to see Yoohyun shaking his hands more than necessary.

She soon became calm as if she heard Cha Seung-hyun's sigh.

“Sorry for the commotion... …. ”

Yoohyun smiled shyly as he nodded his head in the sense that it was okay.

It's not the same as before.

The reaction was a little strange, but not so distasteful.

Of course, I have something to talk about, but I am confident.

I wish it were like this.

It's that easy.

“It's been a long time. ”

“Yes?”

“Oh, no. I heard you had something you wanted to talk about. ”

“Oh, yes! ”

Yoohyun shouted in a godly voice.

I stare at her with my hand at her chin.

“Well, you know.... ”

Then, I don't know why, but Yoohyun looked shaky again.

The well's words blur, so I bow my head again.

Conventionally, my ears turned red.

Why would he do that?

Suddenly I was worried.

...... Are you sure you're on your way?
