Chapter 37 - You can change the ending (2/2)
I take a deep breath. ”You are pregnant. It means that Kang Si An hasn't tried to kill you yet.”
She takes another step backward. ”I don't have much time. If you can find the time crystal, you can change the ending.”
I see her disappear right in front of my eyes. I wonder if she went to the past or the future. It doesn't seem that she has much control. Then, she hasn't found the time crystals yet.
I look up at the sky. It's getting dark. I have no money or place to stay. I squat on the ground and run my fingers through my hair. Frustrated. How do I find the time crystal?
”Kyuri?”
”...”
The person is Kang Si An. He looks a bit older. He should be around 30 now. He looks a lot more like Li Jun physically. Was I tricked by my future self? I stand up awkwardly.
The hotel. Receptionist. Bringing me to this alley. She screwed me up big time.
”You are here.” He looks at me with widened eyes.
”Hi, Kang Si An... long time?” I wonder if it's been a long time.
”It's been ten years.” His eyes are full of pain. ”Ever since you disappeared from my arms, I never saw you again. You are really a time-traveler.”
”...”
”Your family told me.” He touches my cheek. ”I didn't believe them, but I couldn't find you anywhere. I waited for a long time for you to come and see me. Finally, you are here.”
Awkwarder. I didn't expect Kang Si An to speak like this. His personality has changed. He is no longer twenty years old hot-headed guy who would argue with me at every chance. This Kang Si An is mȧturė and solemn.
”These clothes... ” He scrutinizes my clothes and chuckles, ”You disappeared on the highway that day.”
”You still remember?” I am surprised. For me, it might have been only a few hours. For him, it's been a decade.
”How could I forget?” He smiles at me. ”I remember each moment that I spent with you.”
