CHAPTER 1

BLOOD?

NO!

Don’t leave

Stay with me!

“Sorry Jeongyeonnie” She heard him call her name with endearment while his hand lightly caressing her cheeks

“I guess this is it,” He said while smiling weakly

“No!” she answered him with desperation as her voice trembles, “Eu-“

“See you later Jeongyeonnie” she felt his hand slowly left her cheek as his eyes close

“No please!” she taps his cheeks lightly hoping for any response but her hopes betrays her, “wake up, and STAY PLEASE!”

Jeongyeon suddenly sprung from her bed, she is sweating profusely and gasping for some air in order to breath

A dream? She gazes at her surroundings, without a doubt she is in her own room, she touched her cheeks, Tears? She is crying again

“Yoo Jeongyeon! Wake up! Breakfast is ready” she heard a voice called from the outside of her room

She immediately wiped her tears and proceeded to her bathroom. She washed her face and faced the mirror

“stop crying” she ordered herself and patted her cheeks as if it would give her a boost. Then she brushed her teeth, change her sleepwear unto her comfortable hoodie and above the knee shorts

“yahhh Yoo Jeongyeon should I wake you up with force!” Jeongyeon heard Jihyo yelled the second time

She sighed as she walks towards the pantry. The three people she is living with was already on their dining table

“Good morning Noona” Jihoon greeted her casually while eyes still on his PSP 2

“Noona How’s your sleep?” While Woojin also greeted her excitedly while both holding spoon and fork, readying himself for breakfast

“G’morning” She answered them half-heartedly as she sat on the vacant chair

“Yahh, why did you wake up so late today? Usually, you’re already awake at 5 am?” Jihyo asked with concern while placing her fluffy pancakes on the table. Woojin immediately grab two pancakes

“Its...nothing” She answered while watching woojin pour a huge amount of chocolate syrup in it. Too sweet if she was asked

“Nightmare?” Jihoon put aside his PSP and asked her with a concerned look like he was saying AGAIN?

She nodded slowly and smiled bitterly. She cannot lie to them, they knew her too much. Her nightmares reoccur every now and then, and they knew that she couldn’t do anything about it.

Jihyo place a pair of pancakes on her plate and smile, “eat first” that was she was saying

She looked at the three of them and smiled and started eating her share.

The three Parks is with her for almost eight years now. The sons and daughter of Athena; Jihyo- the eldest is like a mother figure to them; she takes care of their meals and other needs. Woojin, the troublemaker who likes to eat and harass his brother Jihoon. And Jihoon with the opposite personality and the twin brother of Woojin. Unlike Woojin, Jihoon is well behaved and possesses high intelligence – a genius. Out of these three, you could say that Jihoon is the most attached to her.

And her?

She is Yoo Jeongyeon, your average young lady. No, not really

As Yoo Jeongyeon could remember, seeing a Ghost and spiritual being is pretty ordinary for her, at first she was afraid of it but the time comes by she slowly she learns how to overcome them. She first met Jihoon when she was eleven, and He is nine. At that time, while she was wandering at the playground near the orphanage she is staying at. She met the young spirit of Jihoon after mistaken him for an alive human being. But meeting Jihoon surprised her because Jihoon is the first “alive” spirit she ever met.

After discovering that Jihoon is a wandering spirit, she decided to help him. It takes the both of them more than a month to figure out where the Youngers real body is. They learned that Jihoon is in the neighboring City and was in comatose. And according to his family the younger got into an accident because he is trying to save a dog drowning in a river, the current was so strong at that time that the 9-year-old body of Jihoon cannot bear and almost drowned himself. Luckily Woojin being the athletic type saved him in the nick of time. But unfortunately, Jihoon was in comatose for almost a month after the incident.

Jeongyeon was the one who persuaded the younger that its time go back, it’s not easy to get the younger agree but eventually He did. So when Jihoon decided to go back at his body, Jeongyeon is aware for the possibility of forgetting her and so she decided to go back at the orphanage without waiting for him to wake up. To her surprise, the younger and his siblings searched for her and brought her together with them here in half-blood camp.
