Chapter 27
Damned Angel"Angel", I said, "Like angel angel?", I asked. "What is angel angel?", Seongwoo asked, making a confused face. "Like... wings and flying and halos and heaven and... wings", I said. "Yes", he said. "You're an angel?", I asked, still unable to believe it. "Yes", he said. "But you haven't fallen", I said. "No I haven't", Seongwoo said. "So why are you here?", I asked, “Well they abducted me", Seongwoo said. "No no… I mean why are you here on earth, chilling at lakes and eating muffins... oh my God, I shared a muffin with an angel", I said. "If I remember correctly, you ate the whole muffin", Seongwoo said, with a smile.
“Aren't angels supposed to be flying in heaven or something?", I asked, "Well, normally yes, but I was sent here for you", he said. "For me?", I asked. "Yes", he said. "Why?”, I asked. "To protect you", he said. "Protect me? Like... like a... guar…?", I asked, unable to complete that sentence. "Yes exactly like a guar", Seongwoo smirked. "You're my... my... my guardian angel…", I said, completely flabbergasted, "…I thought you were my stalker". "Well, that's my fault", Seongwoo said, "I wasn’t as smooth as I thought".
"So all those times we met; that was just you watching over me?", I asked. "Yes", he said, "I needed to get closer to you. So I kept running into you, in the hopes that we would become friends". "So that time you ran after me, it wasn't because you really lost my number?", I asked. "I could sense you were in danger and that someone was following you", Seongwoo said. "That noise that I heard in the bushes, that made me run away, that wasn't you?", I asked. "No it wasn't, that's why I had to intervene", he said. "So someone really was after me that day", I said, "I just brushed it off, when I realized it was just you chasing me".
"I was only chasing after you, so that they knew you were no longer alone", Seongwoo said. “Wow... so you didn’t really run after me just to talk?”, I said. “No, I was protecting you”, he said, “Why do you look so sad about that?”, he asked. “Oh, no reason”, I said. Then why was there a part of me that felt a bit disappointed about that?
“I thought the only angels on earth, were fallen angels", I said. “Well, due to recent events, there has been a lot of changes up there”, Seongwoo said. “Up there, as in heaven?”, I asked, fascinated. “Yes”, he said. “So someone up there”, I said, pointing to the sky, “Sent you down here, to protect me?”, I asked. “Yes, which hasn’t been easy over the past 3 weeks”, Seongwoo said, referring to his current situation. “I don’t understand. Why are you still here? Why didn’t you just like… fly away?”, I asked.
Seongwoo laughed and then groaned with pain. "Why are you laughing?", I asked. "The way you talk about angels is very... cute", Seongwoo said. "Well, I don't really know what the correct terminoloy is", I said, embarassed. “This room we are in, it blocks all angelic powers”, Seongwoo said, “Kind of like a prison for angels”.
