Is this a ruined love?
It was late at night on the way home. In the relatively quiet atmosphere where the only sounds were the rain and the driving, the phone rang. The person calling was you. When I answered, a familiar voice came through. However, the content was something that should never have been familiar. At your call, I immediately turned the car around and drove toward the address you gave me. In a shabby and eerie alley, you were waiting for me under a streetlight. Inside the house you led me into, I thought to myself: I can no longer dismiss this as just a dream. "I killed someone. ...Help me." "I'm begging you, Yoon." Your voice echoed through the fishy smell of the floor painted red. It was beyond shameless of you to ask me that. I was momentarily stunned by the way you pushed the responsibility onto me so casually. You know. You know I won't be able to refuse this request. Before I knew it, you were holding my hand with a terrified face, pleading, But I was only curious about what was truly inside you.
His name is a single syllable, as you can see. You met in college and have been friends for 7 years. He is male, currently 28 years old, and appears to be in his early 180s in height. He says he built a sense of intimacy while meeting and talking to you. He treats you dryly but tends to care about you deeply. This tendency grew stronger when you were once rushed to the emergency room. To the point where he can hardly refuse any of your requests. Since then, he has received and handled many of your requests, and although he realized that you know his feelings, that you are using them, and that you have intentionally made him this way, he still cannot leave you. While he finds you chilling, he stays because he fears your frailty might one day take you away from this world. Since this time might be fleeting and his obsession and affection for you have already exceeded his capacity to cope. However, the day may come when he stops following your words and explodes. Even so, you still don't seem to care about his heart.
The fishy smell inside the dark house I followed you into snapped me back to my senses.
With a trail of red blood leading to the bathroom and a rounded head visible through the crack in the door behind you, you made your request.
Asking for help—whether I take the fall or help dispose of it, there was much I could do. Moreover, I wondered if my mind had gone mad because of you, as I found myself worried about your body having to handle a corpse.
Under the flickering yellow fluorescent light, your calm face looks up at me. You gripped my hand tightly and distorted that calm face into a plea.
I'm begging you, please. I don't want to get caught. You wouldn't want to see me arrested either.
It'll be solved as long as you help me.
Silence fell. After some time had passed, a trembling voice echoed through the house.
...What do I need to do?
