Chapter 4
Ms. Matchmaker's Perfect MatchI can't write today for the ending of my other story so I'll just update this one since it's already written few days ago. Hehe
EUNJUNG'S POV
Jiyeon...
She's being weird.
Well, it's not really that weird but she ask me if I like Gyuri just because I call Gyuri beautiful.
Well, Gyuri is really beautiful, smart and kind as I've known her. It's not impossible for me to fall for her if I'm not in this kind of situation.
I was never meant to love anyone.
But the most strange thing Jiyeon ask me is.....
....not to die.
Why would she ask me that?
I'm not going to some kind of war or something.
But for some reason's that made me feel a bit uneasy.
"Don't give me that look and just promise" She said.
She looks very serious.
Maybe she had a bad dream or something because she keeps wearing black.
How does black affect dreams?...well, don't expect me to answer that coz I don't know.
"Well, no worries Jiyeonnie. I'm a genius matchmaker." I said and wink at her.
"Pabo. I'm not worried about you. Why would I worry for you?" She said and rolled her eyes.
Eh?
Just earlier she looks so concerned and now...
"Hey, why you told me that?" I ask.
"Tsk. Because you're a stupid cupid" She said and walk ahead of me.
She call me stupid cupid again????!!!!
"Yah! First of all I'm not stupid! And second of all I'm not cupid! You will never understand that coz you're just a mor-....Tsk. Forget it." I said and walk faster than her.
If I told her that I'm a Guardian of Love she'd probably won't believe me and just make fun of me because of course humans doesn't know that we exist for us we're only some kind of fairytale creatures.
I like Jiyeon's company even though we always taunt each other but really it's an insult to me everytime she calls me cupid or witch or stupid cupid!
"AHHHH~!!!"
I stop walking when a group of kids pass by running so fast like someone is chasing them.
"MONSTER!! RUN FAST!" The other kid screams.
Monster?
That made me look around.
So quiet.
Something's odd.
"Those kids were running away from monsters?" Jiyeon suddenly ask.
"Vampires" I said.
"No it's not" She said and that made me look at her.
"What do you mean it's not? How can you be so sure?" I curiously ask.
"Tsk. You're really a stupid cupid. Vampires aren't real. Monsters were not even real. Those kids probably just fooling around" She said.
And she call me stupid cupid once again! Grrr
But maybe it's not really a vampire.
Vampire never chase mortals. That's too risky for them especially here.
"We must go home now" I said and drag Jiyeon with me.
We must hurry.
If it's not a vampire then it must be something dangerous.
"Yah! Stop dragging me!" Jiyeon pull her hand away from me.
Tsk
Why does she have to act like this in this kind of situation?!
"I'm trying to protect you!" I irritably said.
"Protect me from what?!" She ask.
**sigh**
It's hard for mortals to understand the real situation.
"Please don't block the way"
Huh?
"Sorry" I just apologize and move aside for the old lady.
She walks really slow with the aid of her walking stick.
Where did she came from?
I didn't see her earlier.
If she walk that slow I should've seen her.
"Danger is coming. Only the truth of the past will save everyone. Don't be blinded by hate" She said.
What?
Jiyeon and I look at each other.
We're both clueless of what the old lady said.
I watch the old lady walk away.
Who is she?
Is she a mortal?
Or a vampire? She had a vampire scent somehow.
"Truth of the past? What does that mean?" I ask myself.
"Jiyeon let's g-.....Jiyeon?"
Where is she?
I look around and try to find Jiyeon but there's no sign of her nearby.
Did I idle that long that I didn't even notice she already left me?
I ruffled my hair.
How could she just left me here alone??!!
Heol.
Anyway, since I'm all alone I just walk slowly.
The presence of that creature chasing the kids is still somewhere around.
I'm starting to sense the hunters around.
"Hahm Eunjung!"
That made me stop walking and look behind me.
Why can't I just go home peacefully?
"What do you want from me?" I boringly ask them.
"The council wants you dead" Boram said.
Dead?
**smirk**
"So that's why you brought a hunter with you?" I ask.
Does she think a single hunter could take me down?
"No" She said.
Huh?
"I said it's what the council wants. I'm not yet a part of the council" Boram said.
"I don't care if they want me dead. I'm not gonna die without a fight" I said.
"My father would surely admire your bravery but unfortunately your Mom made a terrible mistake and die early. In short you only live to pay for her depths." The hunter said.
It's not the first time I saw her.
She's that kid in the school who keeps drinking alcohol in their class but I can't remember her name.
"Hyomin-ah stop it" Boram said.
"We're only here to warn you." Boram said.
I really hate that she keeps acting like we're close friends.
We're not even friends at all!
"Tsk. Seems like you're only wasting your time to her Rambo" the hunter said.
"That's right. If you're not going to kill me better help the other hunters chase the unknown creature than wasting your time in me" I said.
"It's a vampire. Not an unknown creatures" The hunter said.
"I don't think it's vampire but you’re the hunter...it's up to you to decide" I said and leave them.
I wish there will be no more interruptions.
I just want to go home.
I hate it when they keep blaming my Mom about everything.
It's not my Mom's fault! That Guardian of Death is just lucky that she had no relatives left alive after she died.
JIYEON'S POV
It was a relief that her scheduled death changes.
But what is grandma doing here in the city!
"Danger is coming. Only the truth of the past will save everyone. Don't be blinded by hate" She said.
Did she came here just to say that?
Arghh!
The hunters might kill her.
Since I'm worried about my grandma I took the chance of leaving while Eunjung is not paying attention.
I'm also fast like Qri but I could never be a vampire even if my father is vampire...well, not unless a vampire would turn me into one of them.
But I was born to be like my mother.
A guardian of death.
Sometimes I think it would be easier for me I'm just
