Start from the beginning
                                    

"Choi Jisu as well.... I can still remember she was the first victim of the serial murderer and she met a very painful death.. She was a great person, and Ayaka too! Ayaka is also a good friend... Too bad they're not with us anymore..."
I can remember Choi Jisu's pureness back then. Even tho i only met her for a day, i know we could be friends.

" All we can do is to pray for their souls... I know they are resting now, Jia. "
He said, sighing. I just nodded my head, looking up.

"You are Kim Byeol's boyfriend, right?"
It's already sunset and there are a few stars on the sky already.

"yeah..."

"Do you think the killer loved Byeol more than you do, to do cruel things like these??"
I bitterly smiled, staring at the scenery in front of me while i'm trying to relax myself

I didn't heard any answer from him so i looked at him, seeing him staring at the same scenery i am looking at.

"I loved Byeol more than anyone can imagine."
He said, sadly smiling.

"But she tortured you..."
I realized i should have not said that. He gazed at me with a soft smile as i gasped, covering my mouth.

"She did. That's why i loathed her alot too..."
He whispered, gazing back at the scene. I just nodded my head, looking back at the green forest and not saying anything anymore.

"Before everything happened, she actually gave me a gift..."
Sunghoon said, standing up from his seat. I saw him on my peripheral vision walking towards the tree near us, leaning on it as he watched me adoring the scene of the cliff.

"She's thoughtful... When did she gave her the gift?"
I asked, not looking at him. I closed my eyes once again, taking a deep breath.

"It was midnight... Right after my competition when i got silver... The gift actually had a funny story behind it...." he said, reminiscing the past with Byeol.

"If i can still remember she didn't know that my birthday was right the day of the competition. She really waited for midnight to give me the gift, thinking it was still my birthday... Hahaha she's so silly... She told me she waited 'til the clock reached 1:00 so she will be the first one to greet me happy birthday not knowing that my birthday was the day before.. "
Sunghoon narrated, laughing.

I can't help it but to softly chuckle as well. She's silly indeed...

"What gift did she gave you?"
I asked, smiling at the sun in front of me.
I didn't heard any answer from him, just his footsteps nearing towards my direction.

I simply closed my eyes and extended my hands on the air as the cold breeze gently embraced me.



"Byeol gave me a ring."

What?

A.... ring?

Before i can even process everything, i felt two arms pushing me from my back, making me lose my entire balance and letting me fall on my own demise.

My feet can't feel the ground anymore. I felt numb and as if everything suddenly went silent, I became deaf. There was nothing underneath me but air.


he pushed me off the cliff.

I'm flying?


NO.


I'm falling.






Park Sunghoon...?

I see.

The reason why you had a wound the first day i met you, the day before Choi Jisu's death..

The reason why you weren't there when Sunoo got shot at the back stage..

The reason why there's no murder that happened while you were still in coma..

And the reason why it only continued when you woke up.

the reason why you are always with me.

XII.IX.MMXIX.

The day after your birthday was the day Byeol gave you the ring.

December 09, 2019.

Was the same day that was engraved on the gift.

Why didn't i realized it?

I never thought how meaningful your looks are. 

That's why I am always feeling something about you. 

It's not adoration. suspicion.

You deceived me.


You deceived everyone.

LIAR.

The reason why you lied to me and made me think you are the only ally i have here.






Its because you are the killer.


"See you in hell, Jia.... HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
The sinister smile he kept hidden now flashed before my eyes as he waved his hands to bid his farewell. A tear escaped my eyes, feeling my death slowly getting near.

You are evil...






Park Sunghoon.
