Jade and KJ watched on as the latter's younger version ran through the giant field. It had been a month since Jiwon started school and he was still running around the field every morning. Everyday he entered his class, sweating and panting.
The woman, Sung Sohee, was a strict teacher. She did not let him rest at all. The poor ten year old was forced to repeat laps if he missed even a single one.
"You had it rough, kiddo," Jade whistled. He sympathised with KJ more now. "Mirae's mother sure kept you on a leash."
"She kept me in particular on a leash," KJ said. "That's how she made me learn."
Suddenly, KJ stiffened.
"Hey, Jade," he said in a slightly frantic tone. "What month is it?"
"It's the end of January of the year 2000," Jade replied. "Why?"
KJ frowned. So that incident will happen, huh? He thought.
"What's gonna happen, KJ?" Jade asked.
