Chapter 142 - Do you like the Keeper? (1/2)
”Keeper?”
Kang Si An looks at her. He feels a bit dizzy. She's looking back at him with some concern. He looks at the hand. There's blood, but he's not in pain. He stares at her.
”Kang Si An, is that you?” She asks slowly.
Kang Si An doesn't know what to say for a long moment. He has all the memories of the original timeline and the changed one. He also knows what the Keeper did to Kyuri before the time turn and afterward. He even has the memories of the Keeper having the conversation with Kyuri about Ahn Hana. He can tell that Keeper isn't here to kill Kwon Kyuri.
He lets out an exasperated sigh. ”Not again.”
How many people like having a special entity inside them?
”I feel the same.” Kyuri leans back. ”If I fail, you will also get wiped out.”
”Keeper too.” Kang Si An mentions, ”Three of us will cease to exist.”
She gives him a grave look. ”Him too? That's why he's here. He didn't tell me though.”
”He doesn't want to add more to your worries.” Kang Si An doesn't like the Keeper. The Keeper killed Kwon Kyuri in the original timeline. He made Kyuri leave Kang Si An in each lifetime. Kang Si An is aware of the Keeper's feelings for her. Unlike before, Kang Si An is equally aware of the Keeper as the Keeper is aware of him.
The kiss between the Keeper and Kyuri. She knows that Kang Si An loves her. She said that she cared about him.
Another sigh escapes his lips. Same body. Two souls. They love the same woman. ”Don't kiss the keeper again.”
He can't forget her face that she showed to the keeper when he kissed her a while ago.
”Can you look into his memories?” Kyuri widens her eyes. ”So you know what happened.”
”I don't want to hide it. I have access to his memories. It's the same for him. Currently, he can use my body for 100 minutes per day.”
Kang Si An wants to ask. 'Do you like the Keeper?'
But he can't bring himself to ask that.
Caring about someone is different from loving. She doesn't love him.
Kyuri covers her face. ”My life is so complicated.”
”I won't say anything anymore about your personal matters with the Keeper,” Kang Si An says to her in a quiet voice. Rather than jealous, he's hurt. When Young Hwa was with her, he didn't feel this hurt. When it's the timekeeper, he can't stop feeling like this. Timekeeper has been with her like him. They have never been just Si An and Kyuri. Timekeeper was always there.
