Summary: It all started when he was saved by someone…

 

 

 

He doesn’t have a clue on what’s going on. The pernicious number above people’s head rang all his warning bells. He tried to grab them, brush them with his fingers, anything… anything to make those numbers stop. He earned weird looks from people, but he doesn’t care right now because even he, doesn’t know if he’s sane.

 

He’s about to touch another set of numbers when his attention was caught by a set of numbers nearing down its end. He doesn’t know what’ll happen next so he just let his instincts takeover him, muscles tensing as he pushed other people away, finally making sense of what the numbers meant when he spotted that person who’s just about to cross the street.

Kyungsoo ran as if is whole life depended on it, dashing along the busy streets of Myeongdong, not caring to apologize from the people he accidentally bumped.

It was just a normal day for Jongin, finishing his mundane work then walking along the streets, occasionally bumping with people he doesn’t know. His attache case was firmly held by his right hand, while the other is fumbling for his phone in his pockets.

Few more meters… Kyungsoo thought that he could already feel the warmth that would emanate from the guy holding the attache case while fiddling on his phone. His eyes widen when-

Jongin walks as his attention his buzzing phone, not minding that the stoplight hasn’t turned into green yet. He’s already on the dangerous asphalt when he realized that a truck is coming on his way.

-the man starts to walk. Kyungsoo heard nothing except for the truck’s honk, then time seemed to stop as he grabbed the man’s arms, pulling him back. They rolled over the ground as they watched the man’s attache case get crushed by the heavy wheels of the truck, pieces scattering against the asphalt.

Jongin was about to thank the man who saved him, but the man was surprisingly fast, he just caught the man’s retreating back. He was about to run after him but his attention was caught by the sight of-
