chapter 5
One Shot: Shattered HopesFollowing Himchan to the first floor, I couldn’t help but notice how stiff he was as if something bad was about to happen. Walking towards the rest of the group, we came to the big map that was placed on a large table. This map showed all of Seoul and on the map were little markings that I wasn’t quite sure of.
As Yongguk and Himchan talked, I couldn’t help but feel like something wasn’t right; as if something was going to happen. I continued to listen in on the conversation until an ear piercing scream of Yongguk’s name made me jump.
