MEMORIZE

Slap room!

"Well."

As you soak yourself in the hot water, you automatically groan with satisfaction. The heat of the water from the whole body spread to every corner of the body, heating the inside. The feeling of hot heat touching the bone was like a gentle melting of the fatigue accumulated in the body.

It was time to close my eyes secretly thinking that this is heaven.

"It's hot."

As I turned my head to the sound from behind my back, I could see a woman wrapped in white cloth from her chest to her thighs. It was Im Hanna.

Lim Han-na had her feet slightly raised with her mouth slightly open. Seeing that some drops of water are dripping from the end of a pretty toe, he must have been surprised by the higher temperature of the water than expected.

At that pretty fresh sight, I laughed for a moment.

Im Han-na responded immediately.

"Why are you laughing..."

"I'm sorry if I offended you."

I also apologized immediately, but Im Han-na's face became even stranger. It's so awkward...Should I say that he doesn't know what to do with his face?

At my words, Im Hanna pouted her lips quietly, soaking carefully from the feet.

"I finally spoke informally…I'm just trying to be brave..”

"It's not finally, is it? We talked informally last time.”

"Uh, huh?"

"What did he say...You want me to just wait and see again? Was it like this? Anyway, you put it down well."

Slap room!

Im Han-na tilted her head, completely immersed. However, as if he had recalled his words and actions during the war, his complexion quickly changed.

"…That's mean."

Boggle boggle.

Lim Han-na, who may not have been able to withstand the pranks that followed, went underwater with her face dyed red.

Anyway, I turned my head back, thinking that I should stop playing the stupid joke. Then I quietly opened my mouth.

"I said I had something to say.”

The answer was not heard. Instead, I could see the sound of breaking through the current and a slight stir on the calm water surface of the bath.

"Just…."

Soon, a calm voice was heard again and at the same time, a gentle touch was felt carefully touching his back. Does the blood stain bother you so much?.

The moment I thought she was also persistent, Im Han-na continued.

"I think you're having a hard time."

“…….”

I closed my eyes slowly at the words. And I thought for a second.

It's a subjective thought, but it's not hard. Of course I was tired physically, but I wasn't traumatized mentally.

Of course, that's not to say normal. No... should I say it's not the same as usual?

'I thought you didn't show up on the outside..'

How did Lim Han-na notice my condition?

"Why do you think so?"

"Well, have you seen the baby unicorn?"

I shook my head because I didn't come out of the room at all afterwards. Then this time, I felt a warm touch gently rubbing his shoulders. I breathed out a thin layer because it was moist with water and felt a bitterness.

"How was it? Did you cry?"

"Uh-huh. I didn't cry. But he was really depressed. I can't even see the reaction. Should I say I look weak?But you know what?"

“?”

"Unicorn is a very sensitive animal, isn't it?"

"That's right."

"I heard you are especially sensitive to your owner's feelings."

Does that mean you guessed my condition from the baby unicorn?

I felt a little doubtful, but anyway, I opened my mouth just to listen.

"What the hell do you want to say?"

"Yeah, I mean...On my return from the war...I had this thought all of a sudden. What if I didn't hold you back in my greed? Then maybe....”

I was wondering what you were talking about.

"Nonsense."

I dismissed Im Han-na's words lightly. And at that moment, I could feel her slow touch stopped.

"Don't blame me. If that's the case, it's my fault for deciding to go to war in the first place."

"Really? You really think so? You don't blame yourself?"

"Shin Sang-yong's death is obviously unfortunate, but at the same time, it was inevitable. Because it was at war."

Then I cut it straight and drew. A slight raise in voice also included a warning not to talk nonsense anymore.

“…….”

Im Hanna certainly seemed to understand me. He didn't respond, but soon began to play with his hands again slowly.

A little time passed, so silent on each other.

"It's very hurtful…I feel bad for you."

“…….”

I slowly opened my eyes, feeling like I was rubbing with a little force to remove the hardened blood stain. And I deliberately focused on the hazy-colored steam rising in front of me.

The feeling from the back of the bath was very sweet and soft, as if it represented Im Han-na's personality.

'This is torture, not torture.'

It was then.

"That's a relief…."

“?”

"You know, you were different from your brother. I'm a little relieved now. Whoo-hoo."

I tried to turn to an unexpected sound, but I couldn't. It was because I could see that Im Han-na buried her face gently between her hands touching her back. Her breath tickled behind me, and I opened my mouth quietly.

"You mean the former building owner of Love House?”

"Huh? Remember?"

"Because I've heard it before. I remember you as a very popular user."

The building owner of Love House.

He once served as the leader of a fairly successful caravan, but failed in an expedition and the caravan was almost destroyed. Then, while gathering the remaining caravan one and going through the process of merging into a clan, Im Han-na was unable to overcome the shock and escaped.

Anyway, what I heard was that the user was a benefactor to Im Hanna. When news was cut off from the Clan, which left for the delusional plateau, he joined the first rescue team and died.

In fact, I took some pictures, but I clearly remembered what I heard when I first received Im Han-na. At that time, I thought she would have a story, and I thought she would ask me if she had a chance.

Lim Han-na said.

"It was going to be a hit. And by one mistake, it all went away."

“…….”

"He pretended to be very calm on the outside…"I lost my close colleagues and my girlfriend. I've been feeling guilty ever since.”

"I've suffered from a sense of guilt.It's possible."

"Yes, I could tell by the way he acted. You used to be the flower of the night. Suddenly, with gold coins, they build a building for the flowers of the night.Don't you always ask me to be nice to you....”

Im Han-na was blurring the end as she spoke. Then he shut his mouth for a moment, and soon he continued to speak in a self-help voice.

"It was all useless attention..”

Suddenly, I thought that Lim Han-na might have liked the user who called her brother. But I didn't have to say it out loud. Because her voice, which followed, was gradually getting wet.

"Was it because of guilt that the user joined the rescue team?”

"A little bit? I had a colleague I used to work with."

"Then why didn't you stop her. Or you can talk to him."

"I did, but as always. Just don't worry about anything and wait...So I just waited. Whew. Come to think of it, he's always been like that. Wait for me every day. Trust me. Don't worry...But I had nothing to say."

At that moment, an idea flashed through my mind.

"No! You want me to just wait and see again?'

"That's why you said that then? This time, I won't just wait and see."

"…Yes, you just waited as you were told, as you were told. And when I found out that my brother was dead...I regretted my actions a lot. I said no, but...In a way, I was the cause of your guilt."

Cause?

Im Hanna's reply gave me a short sigh. At the same time, there was a slight, but compassion. I also had a similar experience with her.

Brother.

If there was a difference, I would have jumped indiscriminately out of revenge, and Im Han-na would have been afraid to do something on her own in shock.

"I guess the user valued you."

I opened my mouth quietly. Then, as Im Han-na shrugged her shoulders, she heard a giggle in silence.

A heavy silence came again. It was a bit of a long silence this time.

“…….”

“…….”

When he tilted his head to see if he had made a slip of the tongue, I could feel his head slowly rising from his back.

"Suhyun, I have a confession to make. What I didn't say."

"What is it?"

"That's when the caravan...Actually, it was my fault. I was attacked by monsters because I misled the agro.”

"…that's your fault?"

At my question, Hanna nodded a little.

"I didn't have the face to see everyone, especially you. I thought he was just a sinner. That's why I turned down the merger offer and left right away. Because I thought I couldn't bother you anymore.”

…was there such a situation?

I was lost in thought for a moment, and then I opened my mouth quietly.

"I don't think you're to blame."

"Huh? Why? How do you know that?”

"It's a guess, but think about it coldly. Isn't it similar to this time? For example, if I hadn't done something or something, it wouldn't have happened. If you're 100 percent wrong, why would the user feel guilty? I have a good excuse for being you."

“!”

Im Han-na immediately felt a flinch. I think I hit the nail on the head.

If I have nothing to say, I can't hear anything more from Im Han-na. So I decided to open my mouth first.

"I have a question."

"Huh? Yeah."

"You told me before. I want to carve out your destiny. What was that supposed to mean?”

"Oh…."

At my words, I burst into a feeble exclamation.

Chalbang. Chalbang.

After a while, I could feel Im Han-na slowly taking her head off. Then he quickly returned to me and faced me head-on. Her eyes, seen through the hair of the water, showed a slight tremor.

"I was very surprised when I first saw you. His behavior and people's eyes were the same as his brother's. I looked at you a lot at first...Didn't you know?"

"I didn't know, but from what I've heard, I don't think it's much the same..”

"Similar. You try to do everything by yourself.”

I had nothing to say, so I drooled weakly.

Then Im Han-na laughed and took a deep breath. Then he continued to speak very long with a low tone.

"So I was very worried when I was asked to join the clan by Yeonju. I want to go, but can I go? Will I be able to do well? Won't that happen again? Every night I struggled and agonized and agonized?"

"You too..."

"There were a lot of questions, but I couldn't stop myself from being attracted to you. So I decided to join because I wanted to give it a try."

Then that was the real reason, and the flowers at night were secondary. Personally, perhaps Im Han-na herself felt confused at the time, and suggested the issue of night flowers as a kind of escape.

"But you know what's really funny? Not long after I joined, you went to Mule. And we lost contact with the vagabonds. What do you think I was thinking then?”

"You don't think it's your fault, either."

"…That's what happened around me. I thought my colleagues were dead, my brother was dead, and you were dead. After that, I thought it was just fate. Oh, I'm a witch. Since then, my fate has been fattened."

"No way."

I shook my head in a ridiculous mood.

But now I think I know a little bit. What Lim Han-na had in mind and what she was going to say to me. I didn't know because I was always sweet and calm, but I guess it was quite complicated to be fooled.

"Is that why you're worried about me? Will this make me feel the same guilty as him, will it shake?"

Im Han-na did not answer. Instead, he nodded a couple of times with moist eyes.

When I saw that, I thought Im Han-na was cute for some reason.

I laughed my head off again.

"Why are you laughing..."

"I thought I was worried about something useless."

"…Chi."

"Well, anyway, I don't know what it was like to be a user of that guy.".”

I stopped talking for a while and slowly pulled myself up.

The story is longer than I thought. Now that I've been called to some extent, I thought I'd better wash up and go out.

In time I faced Im Han-na's gaze as she looked up at me, and I held out both my hands.

"You heard my answer, didn't you?”

At the moment, Im Han-na's eyes shook violently. Then, the biting lips draw a soft line. She laughed.

"Yes, I heard it."

Im Hanna raised her body by holding my hand. And I calmly turned away from her revealing figure. This is because the wet cloth was shining on Im Han-na's skin without filtering.

Whether she felt the presence of me, Im Han-na continued with a soft smile. My hand was still held by her.

"Whoa. Why?"

"Let's get out of here."

"Wait a minute."

“?”

As soon as I turned to the sound of the call, I could feel Im Han-na slowly approaching.

*

There were still stars in the night sky. I thought I spent quite a lot of time in the bath, but it still seems like dawn.

Thanks to Im Han-na's help, I was able to remove the blood stain from my body.

Unlike before, I felt refreshed and moved to the main building.

Trudging. Trudging.

Soon as I walked into the building and took the dark stairs, I thought about Im Han-na.

'There is no one without a story.'

Although the story may seem like nothing, it honestly wasn't a bad feeling.

Because I felt particularly lonely today, Im Han-na's worries were pleasant attention that soothed my loneliness. I patted my lips slightly, thinking about her cozy touch in the last full body.

At the same time, worries were ahead. Ko Yeon-joo, how can I say to Jung Ha-yeon?.

As soon as I opened the door to the accommodation on the 4th floor, I felt a little at odds.

There were two strange things.

One is that the bloody bed sheets were ground clean before you knew it, and the other is that the center of the new sheets was bulging. I approached the absurdity and lifted up the well-organized sheet.

"Kyu."

Then, I saw a baby unicorn crouching all over and burying his head.

I blinked for a moment and immediately understood the situation. I carefully climbed onto the bed and laid myself slowly so that the baby unicorn would not wake up. And gently hugged the shivering fellow.

"Kkyu?"

"It's okay, it's okay."

The baby unicorn immediately raised his head and reacted, but when he patted him a few times, he nodded off again. Soon I felt him dawdling into me, and I felt sleepy.

Slowly cuddling the baby unicorn, which gave me another even breath, I closed my eyes slowly.

There was still a chill in the room. But I thought of the warmth in my abdomen, the clean sheets, and the feeling left on my lips.

I'm not that lonely anymore.
