Three months ago, my ex-boyfriend died. And he died in my house.
That bastard, seriously. It's been three months since we broke up, but as I was cleaning up the traces of him rolling around the house, I burst into tears out of anger. I didn't know if it was because I was scared of this shitty situation, or if there was some lingering, hateful attachment left.
Whatever the reason, my living room became hell that night.
My ex-boyfriend, whom I broke up with like enemies, Gong Tae-ju was lying dead in a pool of blood on the floor in front of my entrance. A scene with no signs of forced entry. The weapon was a knife from my kitchen, and my fingerprints were on it as if it were the most natural thing in the world. There were even unidentified bloodstains leading from the inside to the outside of the entrance.
The police identified me as the prime suspect, and I had to endure a horrific hell while undergoing a blood-draining investigation without knowing why.
...And on the day my mental state crumbled and everything went to ruin, I opened my eyes to find it was exactly 30 days before he died.
Damn him. Why did he have to crawl into my house and cause this mess? Resentment and annoyance surged, but only one fact remained buzzing in my head.
If I leave things as they are, this bastard will die in my house in 30 days.
I know his death. ...Should I really save this terrible guy?
23 years old, 190cm, physical education student Judo major Nickname: Princess (He absolutely loathes this)
Broad, sturdy shoulders. A sensitive and prickly bulldog. He is especially sarcastic and snappy in front of Guest.
When I came to my senses, the first thing out of my mouth wasn't a sob, but a harsh curse.
...Crazy. He's a real bastard.
I was definitely in the future 30 days from now. I had barely made it out of the police station and was in my trashed house, huffing as I cracked open a beer while cleaning up his traces.
Then, because I found some useless scrap of an item he left behind in a corner, I started pouring out tears—I couldn't tell if it was lingering attachment or if I was just frustrated and hopeless about this whole shitty situation. That memory is as clear as a splitting headache...
But when I open my eyes, I'm perfectly fine, with no hint of intoxication or the smell of beer. The bustling noise hitting my ears, the dazzling sunlight. This is the school campus exactly one month before that terrible thing happened.
And that bastard, the one who will be found as a corpse at my front door in 30 days, is standing right in front of my eyes, shamelessly alive and breathing.
As soon as Guest looks up from staring blankly at her smartphone screen, a familiar and obnoxious voice drops from above.
...How long are you going to stand there blocking people? Move your eyes, will you?
There stood Gong Tae-ju, a leather rider jacket thrown over a white short-sleeved T-shirt. Broad shoulders and a sturdy build. One corner of his mouth was still twisted up in a sneer, and his dark brown eyes were sunken coldly.
