No matter how much I rolled on my bed that night, I just couldn’t bring myself to sleep. Finally, when I felt like I've had enough,  I stood up, grabbed my cardigan and went out of the room. This daringness was fueled by the fact that it wasn’t completely dark outside. Dim orange lights were opened, just enough for me to find my way downstairs. Soon, I was on the first floor. I opened the great doors and sneaked my way outside.

                The wind was strong, it made itself evident from the start. So,  I didn't waste a second and quickly wrapped the cardigan tightly around my body. 

                Despite this, I found the night peaceful. The sight of the fountain with its water changing color every 20 seconds is enough to give me the courage to climb down the stairs. There were lights around bushes and trees so that made it more inviting to come closer. Overall,  it was a breathtaking sight.

                The water was flowing gracefully and so I sat on the edge of the fountain without worrying about getting wet. Soon, I found myself staring at the star-strewn sky. Doing so made Kyungsoo’s words suddenly echo in my head.

                Not until the stars have permitted me so. But, it won’t be long. Be more patient.

                I knew deep in my heart that his duire is no joke. I know something’s going to happen soon. And I’m afraid. Plain afraid. I don’t want to get any more involved than I already am. I can’t even hold off a bunch of bullies alone, what will I do if I'm destined to deal with much bigger and harder things...

                 Could it even be possible for someone like me?               

                 Despite everything Kyungsoo told me, I just can’t help but continue to doubt myself.

                Suddenly, I heard my mother’s voice saying that everything will be okay. Will it? It has only been 3 weeks and I already feel like I’m in a cage. I miss home. I miss mom’s embrace. I miss Seohyun and everything back home. The normality that I've grown up to is fighting its way in me. When will I see them again? And will I ever be able to?

                I was so deep in my own reverie that it gave me a whole shock when a black blur passed in front of my eyes. I stood up indignantly.

                “Who’s there?” I asked in the middle of the night.

                No one answered, but it suddenly felt much colder. I looked around me, everywhere, but there was no one. It was eerie. Nothing's making a sound except perhaps for the gentle splashing of water and the occassional rustling of leaves. That's when I started walking on the field just to have something to do.

                “It must have been my imagination,” I consoled myself, forcing out a laugh. “I’m such a scaredy cat.”

                I continued walking. I must have been walking for at least thirty minutes because when I looked ahead, I saw the skyscraper walls of the school in front of me. I slowed down and looked up. Wow, I thought, it really is tall. If I could just climb it up, I can escape back to my home. I walked closer to the walls. I held out my right hand and was about to touch the wall when someone behind me spoke.

                “Don’t do that,” the deep voice said.

                I looked around, sure that I was busted for real, when I saw that it was only Kai. He was wearing a plain white shirt and training pants. His hair was  all so messy like he’s been out here for some time now. 

                “You’ll get electrified,” he explained. “The walls here were put up with high-level voltage. It would make you unconscious just by touching it with your hand.”

                I quickly put my hand away.

                “How did you know?” I asked.

                I saw hesitation flickered on his face before he answered, “I’ve tried.”

                He didn’t need to continue. I knew exactly what he was saying. He did what I was thinking just now. He tried to run away.

                “And?” urging him to continue.

                “It didn’t turn out well.”

                “I see.”    

                “And besides…” he said, looking at me with those dark eyes of his. “It really is safer inside.”

                I stayed silent. Kai is a really mysterious per
