Novel Bin
Chapter 91
So everyone lived happily ever after.
The end.
...That would be a lie.
I invited Shihu to my home.
He still hadn’t disappeared.
"Welcome."
The house was spotless.
I had cleaned it, convinced by my own delusion that Shihu would come back.
I even had a spare pair of indoor slippers ready for him.
My delusion had become reality.
And yet, it still didn’t feel real.
On the desk—
A bottle of pills.
A syringe.
Prepared and ready to use at any time.
"Seo Ah, this..."@@novelbin@@
"Hm?"
"What kind of drug is this?"
Shihu asked.
"...Suicide? Euthanasia? Something like that."
I was pretending to live like a normal person.
But I was standing on the edge.
If Shihu had never come back, I would have used it.
I told myself I was quitting, but I knew the truth.
My body was already ruined.
Sooner or later, I would reach my limit.
Rather than suffer a long, painful death—
Wasn’t it better to just take the easy way out?
"Why are you making that face?"
I frowned.
"I haven’t even used it yet... You know that. I don’t even take that much anymore..."
Was he judging me?
Was he disappointed in me?
Did he think I was still just a drug addict?
Softly, he pulled me into an embrace.
"Oahh... H-heh..."
A weird sound escaped my mouth.
I was flustered.
But happy.
What do you think?
