It all happened so fast and suddenly, he felt a massive pain piercing his head and everything
turned pitch black.
***
Wonwoo felt pain all over his body even before he fully regained his consciousness. He tried
to open his eyes and move his stiff hands. When his eyes finally caught the lights reflected by
the objects around him, he froze. A small fountain, the paintings, and sculptures he saw not so
long ago were all in his view now.
How did I end up here?
He remembered clearly that they got into a car crash, explaining the honk, the blinding light
he last saw, and the pain. But why was he here? And after checking his body, no wounds could
be seen. The pain he felt earlier, they just vanished like it was never there.
What the fuck is going on here? Where are Mingyu and Jihoon? Are they alright?
Wonwoo looked around him and he couldn’t find his friends. The lanky boy gathered his
strength and tried to get up. He had to find his friends.
“Wonwoo? You’re finally awake!”
To be honest? That high pitched voice scared the shit out of him. So don’t blame him when
he blurted out, “WHAT THE FUCK?!”
Things were getting weirder and weirder, as now he saw the cute customer he told his best
friends about earlier was standing in front of him, holding an ancient teapot in his hand. The
boy laughed and his eyes turned into two thin crescent moons. Warm blush creeping onto his
round cheeks.
“I’m sorry, did I surprise you?”
Wonwoo froze, still trying to connect all the dots, which he failed to do.
“Drink first, Wonwoo. It’ll calm you down.”
“Calm me down? How about you explain to me what the hell is happening right now? I swear
to God I got into a car accident on my way back home, then I woke up here in this creepy
museum, and I can’t find my friends, and you, my customer, appeared out of nowhere telling
me to calm down?!”
He saw how the shorter boy was shocked hearing him raising his voice. He was not angry, he
was just confused. Too many things to take in all at once. The boy smiled as he offered
Wonwoo a cup of tea. “Please, you’ll feel better.”
