Empty Space SLEEP
“Ever since I was born, they said that I am unlucky. "My mother died by giving birth to me when she was perfectly healthy. Then my father’s business goes into bankruptcy and didn’t take responsibility or even care for me. At least that’s what my untie says.” When I open my eyes I saw the very man who approach me in the park. My eyes wandered and all I can see is a familiar place again, where everything is black. While he is sitting on the floor with those sharp eyes looking at me. If only looks can kill, I would be dead by now.However, if you are gonna look deeper his eye expresses desperation, anxiousness, and exhaustion. I am curious about it. What happens that you look very tired? It is as if he is ready to… “My untie, the third sister of my mother adopt me.” My eyes blink twice when I heard his voice. I guess my head wanders again.To my surprise, a big screen just pop up in front of me and I saw a familiar woman. The one who pushed the little boy earlier.“ Well, I guess
Empty Space STRUGGLE IS REAL
Nadie's P.O.VI wanted to hear her side, but our current situation made it impossible.My ear becomes sensitive.That time, I heard something fast-moving vehicle approaching our way.My eyes catch a glimpse of a bicycle moving fast towards our spot. In one swift move, we luckily avoid it.The bicycle crashed into the tree while the man who drove the bicycle jumped in time and rolled to the ground.“What the---” Hyria said in shock with her eyes wide openWhen the time she can move and realize what happened, the man is already standing up on the ground.While I discretely vanish into thin air and go into a different dimension. Luckily the last light of the sunsets fades.“Are you ok?” Hyria asked and walked towards the man. “Oh, I am okay.” The man said while brushing off the fallen leaves stuck on his shirt.Not long ago, after an accident happened. I heard a crack sound and saw a branch of trees that was about to fall at any moment. I move fast and push her away.“Whoa! Are you ok
Empty Space STOP RUNNING
HYRIA'S P.O.VShock is an understatement when I saw a pair of red eyes surround us.I know that I am unlucky. But I never thought that it might come up to this point.It's as if my unluckiness leveled up in a short span."They are not harmful, right?" Hyria asked Nadia.After that, they saw a little squirrel stumble on the branch of a tree and fall.But I never saw the body of the squirrel reaches to the ground.I can not help but swallow my saliva.Hyria showed me a paper with the words written as..."I guess it is."I look at the paper that is stuck in Nadia’s hand. The wind blew as paper struggled to be free from Nadia's finger.All I can think of is...Is that it?I mean, how are we going to escape from this mess.Do you have any plans?Can you do something?Just, please...Anything...The vein in my neck is already visible due to the pressure of expressing my thought. But I can not put it in words."I will go back to him, just please do something," I whispered with such urgency a
Empty Space WHEN YOU START CARING
NADIA’S P.O.V.I felt that my body was lifted in the air, only to find myself falling to the ground.My eyes moved while my body did not move for a second while checking the condition of my body. I guess the fall is not that high. Upon sitting on the grass, full of fallen leaves, I flinched when I felt something so hot under my pocket. I quickly grab my pocket while pulling out the hot thing inside it. Fallen leaves are the least of my concern all over my body, though it is quite itchy on my skin.I was surprised when I saw the disfigured fork that was stuck on the cabinet wall the other night. It is glowing as if the fork was on fire a while ago.I wanted to keep it because it was given to me by Shier. The male protagonist of this novel!I stop thinking for a moment when I remembered how I acquired it.Well, it is more of a threat. But anyway, it is still a souvenir. If I happen to get out in this world alive, I can brag it to my friends even if I will look like an idiot.Maybe
Empty Space A PROMISE
SHIER’S P.O.V.I felt proud that Cerez is in my arms. This time, I am the one who saved her from falling.She was even more beautiful in my eyes with my arms around her.I look like the hero I watched on the television the other day.However, her eyes look puffy. Little by little, the happiness that I felt fades as I saw a drop of tears runs into her cheeks.Then I remember the situation.I never saw Cerez cry before, but this soul on her body is always crying.“I lost my sight of you just for a few hours. How did you end up falling?”Without a word, She moved forward and wrapped her arms around me. While, her shoulder is continuously shaking.“I am sorry.” She said in between her sniffing and crying. I am still confused about the situation.However, I am full of tears right now.I don't want to eat anymore.Well, I can save it later, so I thought.Her tears began to glow and evaporate in the air.That time she pulled herself together and looked me in the eye.“From this day onwards,
Empty Space A PUPPY
“That’s enough! We have to go home.” His arms held me, while my whole body was lifted to the ground. I tried to pull him, but he was so strong.“I have to find--” I opened my mouth to say something but he looked at me.“We are going to find it later. This place is quite dark, so we have to be careful.” He said with a serious face.“You said that my unluckiness will fade if I am beside you, so I will be okay.”“When did I say that?” he said while wearing his half-frowned face.“The other night.”“When?” My face flushed as I remembered the time when I cried.“The time when I interrogated you.”“Ahh… What I mean is I will do everything to protect you, so you can have a higher chance of survival.But that does not mean that your unluckiness will go away. Look at this." He pointed to his feet with blood dripping on the floor."You injured yourself just by walking.”“That’s cheating!”“That is why we have to go home. We are not safe here.”“No!”I tried to struggle, but it was futile. It fe
Empty Space THE WOLVES
After an hour…I look at the moon shining in the sky.It lightens the whole land even the shadows hide from it.Shier gently put me down on the top of the stone. I want to laugh because even a painter can not draw his face.Shier was annoyed because he was excited about what the herbal leaves looked like. It comes to the point that Shier grabs every leaf he saw and shows it to me.Since it is not what I am looking for, I rejected it.“Stop laughing.”“Hahaha… sorry I can’t help it.”“Hah… What kind of leave are we looking for? Why is it so hard to find?” He scratches his head while looking for other leaves.I can't help but smile, I never thought that there was a moment like this with Shier.He acts like a child with his frowned face under the beautiful night sky. Even the firefly happily dances in the wind.I looked at the sky and noticed that the cloud in the black sky hid the moonlight on the vast land.For that moment, I was blind.My eyes widened when someone touched my ankle and

THE OTHER LAND
NADIE’S P.O.V.My head tilts slowly at the back of the tree, not so far away from Shier.If I have an eye, I am probably crying a river right now because I have to give up that fork.I was desperate earlier when he almost saw my very existence.At the last moment, I knew I had to give it up.But I promise myself that I will get it back before I can return to the present.“Just hang in their little fork!”I flinch when Shier grabs the little fork and examines it.The fork is a thing that is made from the future so there is no way that Shier knows this. Even his delicate skin forms a line on his forehead when he saw it.Then after a moment, Shier looks around. To my anxiousness, I almost fall from the branch where I stand.I am struggling to maintain my balance so I should not fall.When Shier didn’t notice anything unusual. He put the disfigured fork into his pocket and return to where Heed is.My head springs on the tree and starts following Shier at such a distance.Shier goes back t

CHASE
After a long laugh, Heed looked at me. I can't help but swallow when I look at him. Somehow I felt a thirst deep down my throat. If stares can kill, l might be injured right now. It’s as if the Heed I know slowly changes into something he doesn’t. “You… you’ve changed” “No, I do not. You know that this is what people like. Well, they do react differently. But, we always saw the human ugliest part. You saw it too. If there is someone who changes here, it is you.” I just stared at him, doing my best to understand him. What is he saying” “You are always with me with our mission. Back then, you didn’t question what we are doing. But ever since you talk to that lady, you start questioning every little thing.” Is it... Is it me? “I know you are confused right now. However, don’t let that lady ruin what you are right now. This is our purpose.” I felt Heed was so far away from me when he stands in front of me. “What is our purpose again?” I look away at Heed as I question myself

HIS REALITY
I swear lightning caressed my whole body. I can not move an inch.I look at him directly as he walks toward me.I almost lost my breath when Shier stop in front of me.“I asked, who are you?” He whispered.Still, I didn’t move an inch as if my life depends on it.He lifts his hand and grabs the part in my pocket where the fork is.That time I lost my breath as if a hand grip my chest harder.I still remember his face when he saw me the other night under the moonlight.His shocked and scared face makes me want to hide in the dark again.What if he makes that face again?However, his hand didn’t get anything. Like he grabs something in a tin air.“Shier, what are you doing again?” Heed asked while looking back at Shier“Nothing,” Shier answered before he walked through me.At that time, I knew he is aware that I exist.He felt, that I'm around him.But I can’t stop following him now.All I know is…As long as he doesn’t know my face, his reaction will be my least problem.While walking,

WHO ARE YOU?
I scratch my chin as I saw Shier’s friend.His name is Heed, the appointed guardian and one of Shier’s best friends."She says humans are interesting when all she can do is collect things that those filthy humans used. “”Oh… he has a sharp tongue.” So I thought.“Stop being rude to her and let’s go to collect tears.”“You are the one who forgets your priority just to be with her.”Shier just looks at him void of emotion as if telling him to shut up.Heed, whose his friend for many years, knows what it means.He started to walk toward Shier and tap his shoulder.Then he walked past him.Together they stand not so far.However, I began to panic since Shier slowly disappeared right in front of my eyes.Just like Cerez, I can not follow him to wherever their destination and I will be alone again.I regretted following this young man.I have a bigger chance of waiting for Cerez, but not Shier.Should I just grab him without him noticing?However, that is impossible. Once I grab him, Shier

INSIDE THE CAVE
CHIRPCHIRPCHIRPI stretched my left leg, It felt numb for a while. My hand moved to find and reach to hug my pillow, but somehow I can’t find it.I can feel the warmth of the sun touch my skin, and the chirp of the birds keeps ringing in my head as if they are telling me to move and wake up.The next thing I knew I'm falling. Thinking that I am still in a dream...My mind goes back to reality when I heard something fall on the ground.After a few seconds, I felt the pain in my body that eventually became numb. I can’t even move for a moment.I don’t know how long I waited, but I moved my body flat to the ground and saw a green leaf that dances through the wind along with the singing of the birds.“Wow…”Then my vision focused on the branch above me.I remember that I climbed to that place and slept there.“Oh, I fall…” So I thought It was part of the routine of my daily life.In this world, the pain and the numbness quickly pass along with the bruises. It quickly heals.It’s as if I

AN INNOCENT CONVERSATION
“Hi”I still can't take my gaze off of her as I heard a sweet voice coming from the young lady.I can not hear them clearly since I am far away from them.So I decided to walk slowly as I enter a different dimension without leaving the situation in front of me.The young man who is currently floating in the air is blushing literally from head to toe.Urggg!!I touch my head unconsciously and can't help to scratch it.I don't know if this is a feeling of disappointment or frustration but first thing first.If I am not mistaken, this is Shier when he is young, though they looked alike. Call it instinct but they are strangely alike.So why is he running in a broad daylight without the stitch of clothes on!“Hi…” Shier said in a shy voice wearing that red face on.“Yeah… You should be ashamed of your thing dangling in front of a beautiful young lady!” So I thought.Even I can’t look but the young lady looks fine with it.She is calmly talking to him as if everything is alright.If it is
