A woman racing to the deep forest, bearing a huge baby basket made from hand-made stylish Grey Wicker Moses Basket in her arm covered with white dimple sheet. She reaped a broad sigh continuously escaping to the darkness tracking at her. She perseveres even her foot aches, she doesn't consider as long she escapes. The melancholy cloud of the sky so hazy even the moon and star regarded nowhere; Resembling for the hiding place where they cannot come behind her.
When a fortunate one; it shifted rainy until it thunderstorm held; She has rested a while for any indication of the Demon but they no warning of them; She was overjoyed when she detected a place to hide to prevent the rain for the preserved things. A winning smile rose to her lips once she uncovered the basket, inside of it, is a lovely baby, laughing and drooling at her but a smile was tarnished when she apprehended that the baby her holding now is

After 13 years...
"Eomma, where are we going? " A naive teenage boy questioned her mother with a pale skin reply a defeat sad smile.
"We're getting out of here!" she proceeds to prepare their things and grab the teenage boy with glasses inside the car and instantly settle their things. His parent was getting fluster to their trip. The teenage boy was so curious, -why they want to leave immediately.- The father was getting soaked due to excessive sweat. He can't conclude, why are there in a hurry.
Suddenly the mother just shouts that their coming. The car was driving so fast even wheels faded by the sound of it. He looked at his parent is not in a hurry but in dreaded in something, whatever it is. Maybe this is terrible to bear off upon they fast-driven car, In the deep dark and cold night, never seen anything besides to trees in the side of the road. He examined on both side of the mirror car until he fastened back and heard his mother screeches and the noise of a shattered mirror on their sides; The car flipped over and over until his head bumped on a hard surface that caused the darkness gorges him.
He nonchalantly opened his eyes, he witnessed a flaming car and notice his parent was trapped inside while he was on the ground underwent of dizziness; As he stirs up blood stretched out, he attempted to stop the bleeding by overlaying by his palm as he uncorked it, he seizes a glimpse again. His eyes widened when he saw six terrifying images. He cannot disclose if they're Human or another humanoid because of their unexplained figures.
"Is he the one? " The structures with a serpent on his arm examined.
" Yes! as our father said, he's the one!" The figures handed with a book but he has many echoes voices.
"He's kinda cute. I wonder! What he looked like when he was on the right age?" the personage with half angel and half demon wings stated.
"Woah! Woah! Don't touch him first. It's not the right time." the figure with a goat head announced.
Then a half-snake, half-skeleton figure with sword and arrow came along with a figure of a body of an angel and the head if an owl, riding a huge black wolf.
"We need to get back. One of our men gonna take care of him." the half-snake and half-skeleton said in his deeper voice. While the owl-head angel just looks at him.
After what happened some people helped the teenager and take to the nearest hospital. One of his neighbors took care of him. Until the day come.

After 10 years.
Beep... Beep... (alarm calls)
Seokjin wakes a look for his cell phone time it said he as a class at 7:30 am
He cooks breakfast, scrambles egg, toast bread and hot chocolate with a sprinkle of marshmallows. He also cooks rice for his lunch box. While he's cooking a couple of noises came to the kitchen.
" I told you, we're on the way... Yes, boss. I'm coming.. Bye! " a young man take abread and drink other hot Choco. The man in a suit takes a deep breath.
"Good morning Sandeul?"
"Good morning Seokjin, another stressful day," Sandeul spoke while eating the bread.
"I guess so!" SeokJin takes a sit and sip his mug and starting to eat breakfast. Sandeul called Seokjin attention.
"Seokjin!" Sandeul maintained but the SeokJin hummin response.
"I'm leaving tonight!" the male announced.
"It's common, that you'll always leave!" he replied while eating the bread.
"Jinnie! I'm leaving you permanently!" SeokJin widened his eyes, turn to his border.
"Why? I know you don't have enough money to pay rent but I've always considered even your food is--" The latter try to explain maintaining himself not lose a border, one of his source of income.
"No! I've wasn't saying that you are a bad landlord..." Sandeul takes his wallet and handed to. Seokjin an envelope of money.
"My father comes back from Hongkong and he wants me to continue my schooling there!"A Silent came on both males and Sandeul speaks again.
"I know you need money for your school including everything around here. I'm sorry Jinnie but I need to leave!" SeokJin simply froze on him and beam a succinct a bit.
"It's alright Sandeul. This money is enough for the whole month until I find a new housemate! " Seokjin explained timidly as Sandeul smile on him. They stand up and make their way in school.
~~~~~~~~~~
As a usual university student, checking his schedule and rooms. SeokJin was recognized as a nerd from the other student. He never attempts to socialize to others just passing the day. He took all of his things on his locker a guy approaches him.
"Good morning SeokJin! " A deep monotone voice greet him as he turns a muscular and attractive man gave him a sweet smile showing his white primitive perfect teeth.
"Good morning Shownu!" He greeted back; without glancing on his artistic eyes making him attracted to the brunette
"Do you want to go to a party tonight?" Shownu invited; hoping to that, Seokjin will accept his offer even though he already had knowledge that he will reject it later.
"I'm sorry Shownu. You already know, I had a part-time and I need money. I really apologized and thank you for inviting me again." A genuine calming rejection coming unto to him. Seokjin knows that he hurt the man feeling plus Shownu is the only who barely talk and greet him.
"Oh! Seokjin, Is there a problem?" He tried to hid his sadness and mask it amidst smile, however, he discerns the brunette sorrow written on his face.
"It's about Sandeul, he's going to Hongkong!" They walked from their room and heard some gossip. around them.
"Do you know the news. We have a new transfer student. I bet he's hot! "
"They said he's a great dancer!"
"Yeah! Right great dancer in bed! "
They simply passed by the student. Shownu and Seokjin proceeding to discuss Sandeul circumstances. It so awkward to about it and decide to discuss a new topic.
"Seokjin! Do you know, Mr. Han?"
"No! " Seokjin shook his head and taking a sit.
"He's already retired and we have a new English teacher," Shownu says, SeokJin simply nodded. He's a type of person never intended to listen to any gossip around him and merely focus on his study and work. After class, the student plainly lingering him. No one is mentioned nor persuade unto him just an ordinary day. Even Shownu left him without telling anything. Some of his classmates only criticized, it doesn't matter to Seokjin. He goes to his work along with his co-workers and came late at work and then his always explaining everything to his beloved noona.
"You're always late! " Yoona spoke while cleaning the kitchen top.
"I'm sorry Yoona-noon!" SeokJin apologizes to his mistake.
"I know, you have school and work just take care of your self! " Yoona-noona is the one and the only person who understands Seokjin situation, however, many of his colleagues didn't like him. Still, his working hours continue similar to hell while taking his break. He heard some of the 3 staff gossipings, as usual, he didn't focus on them instead he took his books and review his lesson like he always does.
"Sunbae! What do you think about our new boss? "
"I don't know, he's quite young for being a new manager to our restaurant.!"
"Yeah! Even our new boss. They said he was only 20."
" Look at the new generation, youth are taking the old ones!"
They laugh through their conversation while SeokJin eating alone in a corner. As the same, he never interacts with others. He always alone like it used to be and it better like this because he doesn't want to interact with a useless thing around him. The working hours were done. He walks from work to home, listening to his favorite song in a headphone as his reliever. Until he reaches home and notices a truck full of the boxes.
'There's a new neighbor! Who was it? I'm going to give him a food tomorrow and I'm just tired.' he says into himself. He enters his house, a cold dark, and quiet home welcome him. He underwent sadly because he used to have Sandeul noisy and childish attitude that filled around it now---- only the sounds of cricket and his music from his phone is the only noise.
Likewise, he loves silent even though, he misses the sound of the voice talking unto him. Sanduel constantly cooks dinner for him. Now, no one will do it for him. He only cooks noodles for his dinner while reading some textbook for his assignment.
At night, Seokjin plainly looked at the dark ceiling. Thinking that would be another day.
"Good night," he greets until his eyes gravitated to sleep.
"Good night! Our offering we will meet soon!" 6 voices greet him back disregarding the male never heard anything.
