Where are you?

Jaeho, Hyukjin and Saeron are sitting together near the campfire as the weather was getting pretty chilly at night. While both of them were eating the barbeque together Jaeho's eyes were wandering looking for Il Hwa. Then, he saw she was standing next to the one who's grilling the barbeque. He was smiling how cute she looks while looking at how the barbeque was grilled.

"Yah," called Hyukjin. "What are you smiling at?" asked Hyukjin. Then, Saeron went towards where his eyes were looking at, she assumed that Jaeho was looking at Sooyoung. "Oh my god, no way." Said Saeron suddenly.

"What- what is it? What did you see?" asked Hyukjin curiously. "You've been checking on Sooyoung?!" said Saeron in surprised. Luckily, only three of them could hear it. "WHAT?! That girl?! Dude, are you serious?" asked Hyukjin.

Jaeho rolled his eyes and shook his head. "There's no way I'm looking at her. She's annoying. I was looking at the barbeque and see if there's any extras left…" said Jaeho. Then, he stands up while holding the paper plate. "I'll go get more cooked meat for us…" said Jaeho as he walked towards Il Hwa and the guy who was grilling the meat.

"Yah, can I have some? I really wanna taste it~" pleaded Il Hwa. She can't take it unless someone gives it to her. Like how Jaeho always did for her. Without answering, Jaeho who heard her, took an extra plate and put some meats on her plate and the plate that he brought just now. Il Hwa who noticed it, feels so happy and walked away to sit with him and his friends.

"Thanks!" said Il Hwa happily as she walked next to him. Jaeho can see that she was really happy.

While Saeron and Hyukjin was talking, they noticed that Jaeho was bringing two plates in his hands. Once they took a seat next to each other, Jaeho place a plate of meat in front of Il Hwa, and the other plate in front of Hyukjin and Saeron.

"Yah, what's the other plate for? Put it here." Said Saeron.

"No." said Jaeho coldly.

"Stingy." Said Hyukjin as he took the meat on the other plate. "You sure you can finish all of it?" asked Saeron. Then, Jaeho saw Il Hwa was eating the meat happily. "Yeah, 100% sure." Answered Jaeho and Saeron nodded.

To other people, they will see the food was left untouched, but to Jaeho, Il Hwa was actually eating the food looking very happy.

As the night gets deeper, most of the students were sitting around the campfire for a story telling, sharing their problems, their stressful days during their freshman and sophomore year. Reminiscing those moments before they graduated in two months later. As for Jaeho, he excused himself for getting back to the tent first. He noticed that wasn't following him as she was sitting listening to their story telling. Without feeling any worries, Jaeho get into the tent first as he was feeling very sleepy.

"I'm sorry, it's too late…" said the doctor.

"NO! NO!" Shouted Jaeho. He was hugging the lifeless body of his lover. "She can still open her eyes… she can… we should wait… right, Aunt Lee?" asked Jaeho with tears streaming down his face and his bloody hands were hugging his lover tightly.

"Jaeho-ah, you have to let her go…" said Aunt Lee.

"No…. I can't… I LOVE HER. I WON'T LEAVE HER!" Shouted Jaeho.

"Angel please… open your eyes…" cried Jaeho.

As soon as the dream ended, Jaeho woke up in the middle of the night.

"No!" said Jaeho and opened his eyes. He found out that he was in a tent, sleeping. And when he looked towards his right, he saw Hyukjin was sleeping soundly. Then, he noticed that his cheeks were wet.

*I cried again?* thought Jaeho. The dream felt so real again. He was actually crying just like how he cried in the dream. *It's the second time…* thought Jaeho. Suddenly, his mind was thinking about Il Hwa and he noticed that she was nowhere to be found. Feeling worried, he got up and went out of the tent and starts to look for her.

The camp site area was pin drop silence as everyone had went to sleep, but Il Hwa was nowhere to be found.

"Yah, Il Hwa-ah~" called Jaeho in his lower voice. Scared if he wakes the other students up. He took out his phone and use the torch as the area seems a bit dark. "Il Hwa-ah, where are you?" asked Jaeho while looking around the campsite. He started to grow worried about her. *can a ghost gets kidnapped by other ghost too?* thought Jaeho. Then, Jaeho heard a sound of a river and remembered that there was a stream nearby the campsite and decided to go there.

As soon as he reached down the stream, he saw a familiar white figure was sitting on a big rock near the river. She was hugging herself while looking at the river with a very sad face.

"I was looking for you."

Il Hwa was startled by the voice. When she looked back, she saw Jaeho was walking towards her. "Sorry, I don't feel like sleeping so I just went here…" said Il Hwa. It was dark, but Jaeho can see a glimpse of her dry smiles thanks to the moon. Then, he turned back on the torchlight in his phone to accompany them.

"Why are you awake?" asked Il Hwa. "I went to the tent just now and saw you were sleeping…" added Il Hwa. "Got nightmares. So I woke up and can't sleep." Answered Jaeho and he noticed that Il Hwa was wearing a sleeveless dress. He took off his outer wear and put it on Il Hwa. That was very gentleman of him.

"Thanks." Said Il Hwa.

"No problem… it's getting colder now… I should buy you some clothes for winter…" said Jaeho. "You do realize that you spoil me a lot, don't you?" asked Il Hwa. "Yeah, but that's okay… it's not a burden… you're living with me, and you're a ghost. So yeah, it's impossible for you to do any human things… I should take care of you." Said Jaeho but Il Hwa did not say anything. Instead, she just let out her smiles.

"What's wrong?" asked Jaeho but Il Hwa just shook her head and let out a sigh. "Nothing… I was thinking…" said Il Hwa.

"Thinking of what?" asked Jaeho.

"I was thinking how my parents look like, my friends, and the guy in my dream… if they do know that I wasn't up in the heaven yet and was wandering around here trying to find out how I died, probably they're gonna be sad…" said Il Hwa sadly.

"I was listening to the other students talking about their study days how they met their partner, how they missed their parents back in their hometown." Said Il Hwa. No matter how much they missed their families, they can still meet them. But for me," said Il Hwa as she paused for a while. "I can't even remember how my family look like and where are they right now… the only person I know now is you." Said Il Hwa.

"I do wish to remember and know everything. But at the thought of to know how I died, I feel so scared." Added Il Hwa. Her voice sounds crooked feeling that she wanted to cry, but she held it on.

"That's okay…" said Jaeho as he tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear.

"You will remember everything. If you suddenly remember how you died," said Jaeho while looking at Il Hwa right through her eyes.

"I will always be there next to you. I promise." Said Jaeho. Those words made Il Hwa smiled again. "Thank you." Said Il Hwa.

While they were talking, a scene played in her vision. The previous guy came out again in her vision. This time, he was so near to her. Unfortunately, she can't see his face, clearly to know who he is.

"I promise, you can do very well in the competition. Don't worry~" said the guy as he ruffled her hair.

"Yah, I've brushed my hair just now…" pouted Il Hwa.

"No matter what the result later, you will always be no.1 for me, alright? You're the best pianist for me~" said the guy and Il Hwa beamed.

When the vision disappeared, a sharp pain struck in her head again. "Oww" said Il Hwa as she holds her head to hold the pain. Jaeho who noticed it, got worried. "What's wrong? Are you alright?" asked Jaeho. "I remember something…" said Il Hwa and Jaeho widened her eyes. "For real?" asked Jaeho feeling happy. "What was it?" asked Jaeho.

"I'm a pianist." Said Il Hwa. "That guy said I'm the best pianist for him." Added Il Hwa. "Well, that's great! You remember two things now. You studied in the same university like me, and also you remember that you're a pianist~" said Jaeho with a smile. "However… we don't have a piano or a keyboard in our house for me to try…" sighed Il Hwa with a pout.

Then, Jaeho thought of a place. "I know a place. I can take you there this weekend… how about that?" said Jaeho. "Really?!" asked Il Hwa feeling so excited and Jaeho nodded. "Then I can't wait for the weekend to come!" said Il Hwa happily.
