Nayeon POV

I sighed. As much I wanted to go somewhere else, but this apartment is our last resort. As much as I hate living in this once burned down or haunted apartment, the truth was so awful to be told that I'm too broke to afford anything else. Yeah, you heard it right. This place was burned down had burned down long ago and then renovated a few years ago. My dad bought this apartment long ago. But as his work need to travel a lot he decided to rent this apartment to a family and we all moved back to our hometown, Busan.

Exactly 10 years ago, a leaked gas pipe caused the whole place to burn down in which the family died. The only person who survived was the 5 year old daughter who was handed to her uncle after their family's death. That's all I know about this apartment. There has been rumours that this place is haunted after the owner of the building tried to renovated it and rent it to other tenants. The claimed that they could feel the presence of something paranormal. So, we haven't had any new tenants for the last 5 years.

I snapped out my thought after hearing a door slam behind me. It was my bedroom door again. I groaned in annoyance this time, but inside I'm freaking out. I keeping my calm composure I went to approached the door slowly. It almost slowly because I knew for a fact that I tightly closer my window. So, there's no way in fucking hell the wind could shut the door. As always, the door made a creaking sound like a horror movie when I open it. Quick reminder to myself, grease the hingers. I open the door to see but nothing doubtful. I sighed.

My bed was neatly made and a dreamcatcher still hung from my blue coloured walls which seemed still. I looked around and notice there was a crumbled piece of paper. I picked up the paper and my eyes keep roaming around. The paper seemed to be straightened and crumbled a lot of times. I open the paper and find something written in a messy writing. The moment I laid my eyes on it, I couldn't recover from the shock of what was written inside it.

-Your stupid nerd boyfriend's cheating on you.- J.

I looked around to see if there was anyone inside the room. But there is no one. I realised I was unarmed, so I picked up a steel hanger and got out of the my room to search the whole house while crumbling the piece of paper in my hand. I went to Chaeyoung's room and open it. She was sleeping. Nothing was here at all. My heart started beating fast inside my chest and my palms become sweaty. What is going on here? I shook my head. I looked at the paper again. My sweaty palms made the ink bleed but not enough to make the writing illegible. I read the message again.

I don't know when, but right now I'm already reached in front of my door and looking through the peep hole. The image in front of me was still. But soon the image in front of me started to moving as the door to my neighbour's apartment opened revealing my boyfriend. Jin Young was in his favourite white tshirt. He came with a bag and he seems suspicious. No, Nayeon don't get it on your head. But, where is he off to? I'm just wondered and curious. Well, he usually doesn't go anywhere when he has his big assignment coming up.

His mom or I will stop by at his apartment to help him with his groceries. I looked again at him as he looked around to see if anyone was there and then finally glanced at my apartment door. I peeled myself away from the door as if on impulse. Stupid! He can't see you! I scolded myself and looked through the peep hole again. He left his apartment leaving me wondering. Its late actually and where is he going? I sighed looking again at the paper on my palms.

................................

For the next day, I keep thinking how is the paper was there. Every time I thing about it, I can feel goosebump and I decided not to thinking to much about it. But one thing that I notice, every time Chaeyoung at home or she's awake or with me, there is no slamming door or rotten smell. Its weird right? I even asked Chaeyoung about it but she just shrugged it off. But she keep saying not only us who live in this world. There we go again with spiritual aura. But I'm not lying, day by day I stay at this apartment every words that Chaeyoung told me keep running in my mind. Am I getting crazy? I don't know.

Jennie : Hey Nabong! I'm on the way to your apartment. Do you need anything? And is Chaeyoung at home?

Finally! Oh, like I said Chaeyoung doesn't like Jennie and Jin Young. I bet she feel uncomfortable if Chaeyoung keep giving her death glaze.

Me : of course she is. But, don't worry. She will stay at her room if she knew you were here 👻.

Jennie : yah! You're mean. Its not my fault she doesn't like me.

Me : yeah. Just hurry up. I'm hungry.

Finally, Jennie stopped by. We having our dated movie, talking about college. Seriously, I wasn't looking forward to it as I had to major in Geography which is not my goals at all. I just take it as my father wants me to major it. My goals actually wants to be a singer or bakery because that the thing I love and expert. While Jennie, was very much looking forward to college. Well, definitely not because of she love to studies but definitely for her eyes candy. Like she said, 'I'm everyone girlfriend'. I rolled my eyes mentally.

Jennie and I not much different actually. But, she definitely more confident than me. I'm definitely a confident person, but she is beyond than that. She even likes to mess around with guys because according to her, life is too short to committed to one guy. That's one more  things that point out our difference as I was stuck with Jin Young since forever. Jennie also a very good looking woman and she's even had a killer figure which is attracted many people. Yeah, people. Man and woman. Boys and girls. She is bisexual guy! Any problem of that? Nope? Good.

Speaking of that, Jennie left early as she had a date with some hot guy. Jennie never tell me much details about the guys or girls she's sleeping with as she thinks I will judge her. Hmm, yeah. I really don't like it actually she messing around. But I don't have a right to judge her. Maybe that's why she don't really talk about it to me. I was busy cleaning up my house when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I looked around but nothing. G! I think I'm getting weird.

"Chaeyoung?" I called Chaeyoung but she didn't answer it.

So, I shrugged it off. Then, as I finished picking up the empty chip packets again I felt a tap but this time on my butt. I looked around but nothing. Maybe it just my imagination. But as I ready to walked to my room, I gasped. I found a piece of paper was stick up at the window. G! I hope its not what I think it is. I walked slowly to the note and I furrowed my eyebrows.

-Heyyo! Lets crashed your boyfriend party baby!- J.

"Huh?" I'm confused.

Then, I felt a tap again in my shoulder. I turned  quickly but nothing. I found another note on the floor. I picked up and see it.

-You fool! Your boyfriend's cheating on you right now! Go see it for yourself. Btw, nice pyjamas :p - J.

G! Who is this fucking J? Arghh. I groaned annoyed. But not gonna lied, my body start to become numb and my heart starting beating faster. I stared at my pants wide eye. I was wearing a stained sailor moon pyjamas. Who ever it is was being sarcastic then. I rolled my eyes. It been a few days since the last note. I even forget about it. I even asked Chaeyoung if she's the on wrote the note. But she swore on her cub plushie that she didn't do it and I believe it as she love the cub so much.

This is insane. Too much question popping inside my head. Who's sending the notes? How does he or she know that Jin Young cheating on me? I groaned internally. I had to clear my head of any doubt. I walked to my main door and take a few deep breath.

"Are you really believe this Nayeon?" I asked myself.

I don't know anymore.
