Kj woke up early next morning. Even though he came home late at night due to his unending schedule, he had to drag himself off the bed. He would be heading off to Busan with Ash, Mirae and Hyun Jung. Mirae had advised him not to go since he was still healing, but KJ insisted on going. It was his mother's hometown after all.
His suitcase was already packed. He took out a large cage out for Jade. Even though Jade hated to be caged in, it would be difficult to keep him still during a long trip. The cat was purring impatiently. He did not like to be woken up this early in the morning.
"You're still quiet," KJ said, stroking the cat's ginger fur. Jade had told him that he needed time to gain his spirit energy but did not mention how long he would take. The more time Jade took to heal, the more worried KJ was getting. What if he never heals? What if Jade never returns? The ominous thoughts were filling his head.
