“Yoo-Bin?” Gi-Gyu whispered in confusion. He thought he had misheard her, but…

“Please kill me, Oppa.” Yoo-Bin’s answer remained the same.

A few seconds passed by. Knowing he only had 30 seconds, Gi-Gyu yelled, “What are you talking about?!”

He needed to know exactly what Yoo-Bin wanted. As his face crumpled sadly, Gi-Gyu whispered, “How could you ask me to kill you…?”

“I heard what happened. I don’t know how, but I heard everything. I heard the worry in your voice, and…” Yoo-Bin, in Soo-Jung’s body, turned to face El, making her flinch.

Yoo-Bin quickly turned back to Gi-Gyu and asked, “This happened because ‘it’ took over my body, didn’t it?”

“What?”

“I can still feel it. I feel cold, Oppa. That thing that possessed my body… It’s still inside me. If you save me, and I live, it will reawaken. Oppa…”

Yoo-Bin closed her eyes and begged, “So please kill me. I don’t want to burden you anymore. The only way I can help you is—”

Soo-Jung’s eyes flew open. She had returned to her body and stated, “That’s it. That’s all I could manage.”

“...”

An awkward silence...
