I am not a returner Episode 270
: Greed and Love (2)
Seongso (星召).
A world of constellations that only awakened people with stigmata can enter.
The entrances to sanctuaries located all over the world were so valuable that their mere presence raised the status of a nation.
A country without an entrance to the sanctuary was often ridiculed and called a ‘land abandoned by the stars.’
“ha.”
The noisy streets of Hongdae.
A woman was taking steps, letting out a short breath.
Her brilliant platinum hair swayed gently in the night breeze that brushed her cheeks.
An unrealistic appearance that immediately steals the attention of those around you.
Hundreds of eyes were focused on her, but no one dared to comment on the noble aura that naturally flowed from the woman.
All they do is just whisper from afar.
The woman walked down the street with elegant and haughty steps, as if she wasn’t even bothered by all the attention.
She glanced at the entrance to the sanctuary and smiled slightly.
“Vega must have arrived by now, right?”
Isabella, who was kicked out of the hospital room by Ha-eun, wandered outside the door with a nervous expression.
No, the expression ‘anxious expression’ may not be appropriate.
As she wandered down the hallway, her steps were strangely excited, and the corners of her mouth were twitching upward.
Maybe this incident could lead to a breakdown in the relationship between Ha-eun and Oh-jin.
Oh Jin had been hiding the fact that his memories of Ha-eun had disappeared.
From Ha-eun’s perspective, she must have felt a sense of betrayal.
This could easily be seen just by the fact that Ha-eun’s face was so stiff as to be scary as she opened the door and strode in.
What if there is a difference between the two?
gulp.
Isabella swallowed dryly and looked at the tightly closed door.
I forcibly pulled down the corners of my mouth that were trying to twitch.
iced coffee.
Oh Jin will be greatly hurt if he and Ha-eun have a falling out.
I knew very well how much he cherished Ha-eun.
To the point where even life feels insignificant.
He was giving everything to Ha-eun.
I am comforting Oh Jin who is hurt.
Isabella placed her hand on her pounding heart and let her imagination run wild.
The image of himself approaching the heartbroken Oh Jin and comforting him with utmost sincerity.
You should hug her gently and pat her head.
It would be nice to share a sweet kiss like last time.
Fortunately, she had an attractive appearance that could charm even a monk who had been training for decades.
And the relationship has progressed to the point where she can at least take his ‘second place’.
‘Of course, Oh Jin, you won’t remember.’
Still, unless all memories of him had disappeared, it was certain that he had a place in his heart.
‘perhaps.’
Isabella’s eyes burned hotly as she stared at the door.
Maybe maybe maybe.
I might be able to take his ‘first’ with this incident.
The desire that had been suppressed deep in my heart raised its head once again.
But the time when I was filled with such expectations was short-lived.
The moment I heard the manly moan coming from beyond the door, my swollen heart sank like a balloon being pricked by a needle.
“ha.”
Isabella sighed deeply again.
She was staring blankly at the hospital room door, then turned and headed towards the sanctuary.
It was to tell Vega that Ojin had woken up, but deep inside, he wanted to disturb the two people who were having a sweet time.
Because they both seemed cautious in front of Vega.
“…What are you doing?”
How dare you call Vega and interrupt the sweet time between the two of you.
Even when he thought about it, it was an extremely unsightly jealousy.
Isabella walked down the street with a self-deprecating smile.
Rather than going back to the hospital right away, I felt like taking a short walk to cool my head.
When I was walking through a nearby park like a lost person.
“….”
Isabella’s steps suddenly stopped.
She looked around with sharp eyes and gently traced her palms with her fingernails.
The blood that flowed from the palm was shaped into a sickle.
“Oh my, you’re so scared.”
A park that has lost its popularity.
A woman walked out from the shadows of darkness.
A body type that is more appropriate to be described as a girl rather than a woman.
The outline of her slender body felt so precarious that I was worried that it would break if I touched it incorrectly.
However, the woman’s appearance was bewitching and alluring, which did not match the slender figure of a girl.
A woman who evokes an instinctive sense of immorality, like the forbidden fruit that Adam reached for.
Cassia Colgrande smiled brightly as she looked at her younger sister.
“…sister.”
Isabella glared at Cassia with sharp eyes.
After talking with Ojin inside the black curtain, he suddenly stopped attacking, but even before that, he was trying to kill himself with a maniacal smile.
It is a situation where instinctive caution inevitably comes to mind before the joy of meeting the sister who was thought to be dead.
“There’s no need to be so cautious?”
Cassia shook her shoulders as if she was very happy to see Isabella looking very nervous.
“What are you doing here, sister?”
“iced coffee. “I thought I would meet him and see the face of my beloved younger brother for a moment on the way back.”
“If it’s him… then you really met Mr. Ojin?”
Cassia nods her head silently.
Isabella bit her lip and aimed the scythe in her hand at Cassia.
“You must have done something else to Oh Jin, right?”
“Don’t worry. “That person…”
Cassia trailed off and looked up at the night sky.
“Who is he?”
“….”
Cassia looks up at the dark night sky with complicated eyes.
She sighed deeply and shook her head.
“…I’m not sure yet.”
“What do you mean you don’t know?”
“It’s nothing.”
Cassia shook her head, avoiding answering.
that day.
The image of Ojin I saw in the black curtain came to mind.
A man who said in a cocky and arrogant manner that he would be his ‘Heavenly Demon’.
The man who turned his back on the Heavenly Demon she was serving and whispered sweet lies to her to follow him.
My feelings about him were still too complicated to be summed up in just a few words.
There was too much blood on my hands so far to be easily deceived by his sweet lies.
“….”
Heavy guilt and regret constricting my heart.
Although she is said to have lost her mind after receiving the ‘star’ from the Heavenly Demon, she has become the limb of the Heavenly Demon for the past 10 years and has trampled on countless lives.
That kind of confidence.
A snake that is extremely dirty and ugly.
Is it okay now to follow sweet whispers and be happy?
Or, do you deserve to feel happiness in the first place?
Cassia shook her head as if to erase the complicated thoughts from her mind.
“Anyway, you didn’t do anything to him, so you don’t have to worry.”
“….”
Isabella lowered her scythe, her guard a little lessened.
“So what is your business?”
“oh. “Do you really need a reason for your sister to come see her brother?”
“Stop talking nonsense.”
He glared at Cassia sharply and said coldly.
Cassia lightly shrugged her shoulders and approached Isabella.
“Anyway… it looks like he has another woman?”
Startle.
Isabella’s shoulders trembled.
Cassia looked at her and burst into laughter.
“Are you going to take it out?”
“What do you mean by taking it out?”
“Don’t act like you don’t know.”
Cassia continued speaking, sticking out her long tongue.
“Our Bella is greedy, isn’t she?”
“What do you want to say?”
“Hehe. “I know.”
The sinister snake eyes glanced at Isabella.
“Or… should I have it?”
Cassia sweeps her chest with a bewitching smile.
Although she didn’t have feminine curves, her charm reminiscent of a forbidden apple was so destructive that it took away the attention of even her fellow blood relatives.
“Don’t even lift a finger at Oh Jin! “I’ll be quiet…”
“What are you about that person?”
“That’s it!”
Isabella was speechless.
No matter how much she was, she didn’t want to reveal that she was Ojin’s ‘second’ in front of her sister.
Cassia’s eyes lit up as she looked at Isabella, who was speechless and hesitant.
Even though they were of the same blood, it was obvious at a glance how attractive Isabella was.
A voluptuous, curved chest line and a slim waist that would make you think she had such a huge chunk of flesh.
From skin as flawless as a snowy field to beautiful hair that looks like it was made of melted gold.
Cassia herself was proud of her charm as a woman, but she could not compare to Isabella.
What a woman who makes such an expression on her face.
“Hmm. “Who could it be?”
Cassia narrowed her eyes, recalling the woman’s scent that was thickly buried on Ojin’s body.
Why?
When I thought about that woman, my heart boiled.
“….”
It’s not like I really have feelings for him.
Cassia bit her lip in frustration that was rising for some reason.
“Well, try your best anyway. Stealing is your specialty, isn’t it?”
“…Noisy.”
“Hehe. “Then I’ll just leave.”
Cassia turned around, gently waving her hand.
“Why did you come really…”
Isabella sighed deeply and shook her head.
“Where are you going?”
I asked Cassia as she disappeared into the shadows.
Cassia stopped walking and turned her head with a stern expression.
“The Demon World.”
After giving a short answer, her figure completely disappeared into the shadows.
“….”
Isabella, who had been staring at the spot where Cassia had disappeared, gently bit her lip and turned around.
The place she is heading to is a hospital where there is a misdiagnosis.
I wanted to meet him right now.
* * *
When I opened the door to the hospital room, I saw Ojin sleeping.
‘Are they both already gone?’
After confirming that Ha-eun and Vega were out of sight, Isabella approached Oh-jin with quiet steps.
Oh Jin is sleeping, breathing evenly.
-Isn’t stealing something your specialty?
Cassia’s voice rang in my ears.
“I…”
Isabella stretched out her hand to the sleeping Ojin.
I gently touched his cheek and smoothed his lips as he was breathing evenly.
The feel of soft lips.
The intense impulse that had been suppressed boiled over.
“Hmm?”
Did he feel popular?
Oh Jin, who was sleeping, opened his eyes.
“…Isabella?”
“Are you awake?”
Isabella gently pressed Ojin’s chest as he tried to get up and laid him down on the bed.
“The promise you shared with me… “Do you remember?”
“promise?”
“yes. “It’s a promise we made on the Ferris wheel.”
“…If that’s the case.”
Oh Jin’s expression hardened.
Due to the aftereffects of Gaecheon, I had completely lost my memory of what I had discussed with her on the Ferris wheel.
“sorry. Like I said before, I remember…”
“I just need to tell you, right?”
Isabella climbed onto the bed.
He looked down at Ojin with breathtakingly alluring eyes and spoke quietly.
“Oh Jin…”
A moment of hesitation.
Isabella, who was looking down at him with conflicted eyes, laid her body on top of Ojin as if she were crushing him.
“You said you would make me… the ‘first’.”
He doesn’t remember what happened on the Ferris wheel that day.
then.
You could be his first, not his second.
Not Ha-eun, but yourself.
You become his most precious person.
“Oh Jin… will you keep your promise?”
Isabella looked down at him with lustful eyes and let out a hot breath.
