Till we meet again

Part III: A Step Into The Unknown.

My first step outside ARIES sent shivers down my spine, with the growing influx of monsters, the streets were probably flooded with them by now. I took a heavy sigh and stepped out of the building fully aware of my new predicament.

My ears had become quite sharp, and from a distance, I could hear the growling of monsters, I'd just have to avoid them, if I fought something like the 8-foot-tall monster back then, I'd probably be killed.

From behind me, a voice broke through my thoughts, "Su Jin-a! Kajima, kajima juseyo (don't go, please don't go)."

Before I could even turn around, Jeong Su had hugged me from behind, her hands were wrapped tightly around my waist. "Whatever it is, we'll find a way, I promised to be your relaxation pill, so don't go, whenever you feel off, I'll calm you down," she sprouted.
