Piece #4 - The Demon left with him - "His hands trembled, the cold steel braced his skin, one more motion he hoped to drive away, the demon left with him..."

It was a summer years ago, when Gwang-Jin found So-min... Though they had went to the same school they never acknowledged each other as they where both introverts in their own respect. Avoiding most people and especially each other. Most students, girls and boys feared Gwang-Jin. After wrong negative rumors spread about his character. Students having seen him sleeping in the streets and then making up stories that he attacked his parents and was kicked out, now taking out his frustrations attacking people in the streets. So-min was a very beautiful yet very shy girl, many girls in the school grew jealous as the boys would always praise and ask her out, So-min never seemed to be interested so it made the other girls angry and jealous so they shunned her. So-min who was nervous around most men was especially terrified of Gwang-Jin with the rumors surrounding him. Gwang-Jin like the other guys did think So-min was the prettiest girl in the school, yet something else intrigued him, something about her reminded him of himself. The truth for Gwang-Jin was that his parents died in a car accident during a family trip. Only he survived leaving him to live with other relatives. They despised him, seeing him as slow, stupid, worthless, and a burden compared to their own child. Gwang-Jin's new guardians severely punished him, Gwang-Jin couldn't understand why they hated him and would leave the house for days or weeks at a time and live in the streets. He truly felt alone, howling in frustration in the night. It was at times wishing he had gone with his parents in the accident, he wanted to die... The truth for So-min was that she was molested by her uncle at a very young age while her parents where away, traumatizing her. She was afraid to tell anyone due to his threats and her shyness, this fear it broke her heart... Her parents important political figures thought highly of her uncle as he was a very well known and charismatic man, ceo of a important business in town. Behind her silence, was a damaged heart, feeling weak she began to believe she was worthless...
        It was that summer, Gwang-Jin was lying in an alley late at the night, contemplating his suicide. He became frustrated and disturbed by a nearby commotion unable to think clearly. Arriving upon the scene of the commotion he had found So-min. So-min couldn't take her silence anymore and muster the courage, threatening to tell everyone about her uncle molesting her. So her uncle dragged her out to a mostly abandoned part of town to break her spirit. Gwang-Jin watched as So-min's uncle beat her, at first Gwang-Jin hesitated as this brought about memories of his abuse. Then he saw So-min's tears as his own... Charging the uncle Gwang-Jin took out all his frustrations and in a fury beat her uncle nearly to death. So-min was terrified staring at Gwang-Jin, he stood there over her with his fist trembling covered in blood. So-min was paralyzed as Gwang-Jin took at a clothe and before cleaning himself began to wipe the blood off her in silence. she was so terrified and bewildered from the whole situation that she fainted. Gwang-Jin then picked her up and took her home on his shoulders,even though his body was in tremendous pain from the ordeal. The next day, with the help of an observing bystander and Gwang-Jin, So-min's uncle landed into big trouble. Even after this Gwang-Jin did not say a word directly to So-min nor acknowledge her. His silence sparked her interested as she always expected men to want something in return if they treated her nice. And after all he done for her, she felt she needed to help him in someway. Knowing that he couldn't speak to her directly she left him a note in his desk at school. After the moment he read that powerful letter, very slowly but surely So-min was able to grow close to Gwang-Jin, and eventually opened his heart... They soon learned to live by one another, teaching each other to live life as they envisioned it should be lived. Treasuring these lessons he learned to be happy, no longer did he want to die... she learned to trust, learning courage from him she was no longer silent...
        Eventually they both became strong adults energetic with a new appreciation for life and fell deeply in love. Gwang-Jin was excited about proposing to his love So-min. On one knee he looked up to her saying “ Long ago I was frustrated, I was alone, I even thought I wanted to die...But when I found you, you actually found me... Finding each other, you taught me that life was possible...At that point I realized I did not have to die to go to heaven, when I found someone on this earth, who is heaven...”. With tears she accepted his proposal and they were officially engaged. But the same day late at night from a long day's outing Gwang-Jin was driving So-min back to their apartment. A drunk driver came head on in their direction, in that dire moment Gwang-Jin tried to avoid it but couldn't and crashed. After that moment he found himself in a nightmare of the day of his parent's accident, looking in the backseat the moment they crashed and seeing his younger self, looking to the side to see So-min, and lastly into the mirror to see himself. Waking up in the hospital, his first words called for So-min. Looking into the hallway he saw her. The lifeless body of So-min being wheeled down the hallway... He ripped off his ivs in pursuit of her, he refused to believe that she was taken from him... In the weeks following Gwang-Jin was devastated, slowly becoming devoured by his own guilt and reverting back to his old self. Sleeping in alleyways around the city alone, with a cold expression riddled upon his face.
        In his dreams instead of seeing So-min something else visited him, and claimed him, with a darkness that felt so real. Waking up from these dreams reality caused him great pain, these dreams reminded him of what he had done, how So-min had died, and how his existence was her doom. Though it was a situation out of his control, the over bearing pressure and guilt this visitor brought corroded his mind and played with his emotions until he believed he had truly sinned. He believed that if his heaven was no longer here on earth and taken away from him, that he now he must be dammed to hell... With the consistent visions and the echoes of this dark being, he was terrified and believed it was calling him there. Gwang-Jin was left with a demon, finding him in his most vulnerable state it took over isolating him with its will. Shrouding him and causing a crippling depression, on his guilt it fed and it grew. Its sole existence being its closure, watching and waiting for the moment one is most vulnerable, then embracing them. Knowing that they can suffer as much as it does it seeks to bring an end by their own hand. By picking at and distorting their mind and their memories it does this. To claim a soul as unfortunate as its own to suffer with forever... Gwang-Jin could handle this anymore and the day came where he decided his end. Stumbling short of breath into his apartment, the world now colorless and devoid to him dues to the demon's powerful presence. Behind him the demon manifested its final form, its distorted echoing voice pulsating around the room. Gwang-Jin laid out a gun in front of him looking back at the horror that haunted him. Gwang-Jin held and read So-min's letter from childhood but the words to him now appeared twisted, unreadable, and held no meaning. He looked across the room towards So-min's picture but he couldn't bring himself to look directly at her. More than anything So-min wanted to him to live, to forever treasures their lessons of life to live for her. Yet her message could no longer reach him in this state no matter how hard he tried to remember... He just couldn't remember that through her, he valued life for the first time, he treasured and lived his life knowing thats want she wanted. Now since she was no longer there to remind him of this, these memories where taken and destroyed by the demon... Taking off his engaged ring he began to curse, he began to blame So-min for falling in love with him, as he grabbed for the gun. The demon him from behind continuously feeding off his misery knowing his end was here. His hands trembled, the cold steel braced his skin, one more motion he hoped to drive away, the demon left with him...
