Chapter 3 - If you dont find him, he will find you (2/2)
”Aish!” She smacks the back of my head. ”Kyu Ri, listen, if you don't find him, he will find you. You will have an advantage if you find him first.”
”You are right.”
My grandmother has always warned me not to mess with time. If some things are set in order, they will still happen. If I try to change things, I might disappear like my eldest aunt. But, If I don't, I will be killed.
”Is his name really Kang Si An?” Yoon Mi is looking at her phone with an ashen face.
”Yes, Kang Si An. He has green eyes...like the newborn leaves in the spring.” His eyes are unforgettable. Perhaps, because of the hate and disgust that he felt for me. I never thought that anyone could hate me that much.
”And the name of the movie that you saw in that movie poster?” Her eyes are glued to the screen.
”Our tangled destiny.” I look at my watch. 11:15 AM. I should go back home and sleep. I feel too depressed. What if he finds me at my home? I have a headache.
”They are currently planning to shoot this movie.” She gives me her phone with a blank stare. ”This movie will be released after six months. Look at the male lead.”
”I am not interested in the movie that will be released after my death.” The name of the movie is lame. Our tangled destiny? I am sure that it's a soapy romantic movie that will end up in tragedy. I hate tragedies. My life is already a tragedy.
”Just look at the male lead.” She narrows her eyes at me. ”Look and tell me if it's him.”
”My murderer can't be a celeb-” I drop the phone.
”So, it's him.” She sighs loudly. ”You will be murdered by him. How many of his crazy fans would love to be in your shoes?”
”...” I peek at the screen. A pair of familiar green eyes stare back at me. It's him. Kang Si An. The only difference is that his hair is black in the picture.
”His mother is a foreigner.” She takes the phone. ”He is twenty years old only. He used to be in a band before it dismantled. Then, he became a model. Now, he is a famous movie star in B country. Kyu Ri, we are twenty-one, poor, and studying like donkeys. Next year, we will be hunting for jobs like our seniors. There are these people who can earn money with just a smile.”
I pull my hair in frustration. ”I don't understand. What did I do to him? We have never met.”
”Exactly!” She presses her palms together. ”Now, we know our enemy. We must find out how you wronged him or how you are going to wrong him.”
”Argh!” I smack my head on the table. A celebrity will kill me. I only have six months to change my fate.
