888 chases Hyun Jae who walks away from him. He tried to stop the 13 year old girl's steps. "Hey, little girl. Wait for me, you're so grumpy," said 888 while pulling the strap of the bag that Hyun Jae was carrying so she couldn't help but stop her steps. "You want to make me fall huh? What's wrong with stopping me by pulling my hand," Hyun Jae grumbled.
888 immediately put on his puppy eyes, making Hyun Jae pout her lips in annoyance.
"I don't want to touch you because I can see everything. Including being able to see how you were in your previous life."
"So what if you can see all that? Is that wrong?" 888 scratched the top of his nose that didn't itch. "Actually it doesn't matter, but I don't want to. Later I ask how my previous life was. That is forbidden."
"You stingy. Ah, I'm annoyed with you, why am I talking to you? I'm annoyed with you, just stay away from me."
"What's the reason you're angry with me, try to name it."
Hyun Jae turns her body, she glares at 888. "You can help the little girl. How hard is it to approach the child and carry her back to her mother? Or, tell the child's mother that her child ran to the highway. After all, You're also in human form. Not the grim reaper 888 on duty!" Hyun Jae exclaimed. Several passersby seemed to be watching them. 888 immediately went over and covered Hyun Jae's mouth with his hand. He bowed to several people who were watching the two of them. "Hahaha sorry sorry my name is Kim Young Joo, this is Hyun Jae my nephew. He's just memorizing drama scripts on her school stage," said 888 with a smile.
The people who had stopped and watched them continued their steps again. Hyun Jae was angry and slapped 888's hand away. For a moment, 888 is silent. This time he sees Hyun Jae in the clothes of a courtier. And, she was serving as a general. Unfortunately, 888 had not had the chance to see the general's face, Hyun Jae hastily brushed his hand away. Realizing that Hyun Jae left him again, 888 immediately ran after this girl. "Kyaa, Hyun Jae! Don't sulk like a child," said 888. "I'm still young, you forget I'm only 13 uncle, Young Joo," replied Hyun Jae as she continued to walk indifferently to 888. For some reason seeing this little girl sulking made 888's heart hurt. Did they have a relationship in the past? 888 doesn't understand.
Hyun Jae doesn't care about 888 who is still walking beside her. However, in the end she stopped and turned to 888. "You're going to keep following me all the way home, uncle?" she asked. "Can I? I want to know what you do every day."
"Don't you have work today?"
"No, that's why today I can relax and enjoy the time." Hyun Jae pursed her lips while exhaling her breath roughly. "My mother works during the day. So does Aunt Eun. They both come home in the afternoon. So, during the day I'm alone at home. You can accompany me, provided you don't disturb me."
"I'll just stay with you until your mother and aunt come home."
"It's up to you, uncle, I'm dizzy. You are annoying," Hyun Jae grumbled as she continued her steps. Hyun Jae's school is only a few blocks from her house, so she can walk every time she goes to and from school. Arriving at the house, Hyun immediately opened the door of the house with the key he had. "Do you want to sit on the terrace or go inside? I don't know if a grim reaper like you eats or not. But I will prepare my lunch. Mother has already cooked the rice and prepared the dishes.
"What did your mother cook?"
"Mom's cooking kimchi soup. But I'll add egg rolls. What's wrong? Can you really eat it?"
888 stepped in, "You change clothes and show me where the kitchen is. I'll make delicious egg rolls for you," 888 said. Hyun Jae immediately raised her eyebrows and frowned.
"You cook? Are you sure you can?"
"You're just making fun of me, come on, show me where your kitchen is," said 888. Inevitably Hyun Jae finally shows where the kitchen is. Then she immediately went to her room to change her school uniform. When she came out 888 seemed to be preparing the ingredients for the egg rolls. Hyun Jae just silently observes what 888 is doing. When all was done, 888 put his homemade egg rolls on the dining table.
"Wow, it smells delicious, would you like to eat it too?" Hyun Jae offers. 888 shook his head, "Just you." Hyun Jae shrugs and starts eating. It turns out that the taste of 888's egg rolls is so delicious that Hyun Jae immediately smiles cheerfully.
"Why are you smiling?" 888 asked.
"Your eggs are very delicious, thank you. Maybe you used to be a cooking expert. So the taste of uncle's cooking is very good," commented Hyun Jae.
888 smiled sadly. "I don't know, I don't know either. I can't remember how I was in my previous life. I can't remember everything. Sometimes I also wonder if my past mistakes were so big that I was punished by the king of the heavens to become an angel of death." Hyun Jae looks at 888 with pity.
"Uncle, was I in the past that you saw a royal princess?" Hyun Jae suddenly asked. 888 stares at Hyun Jae in shock.
"Hmmm...how could you have guessed like that?"
"I don't know, I often dream. In my dreams I am the youngest daughter of the Emperor. My father died of illness. And the government was handed over to my eldest brother. But, in that dream I was always killed. Hahaha... I don't know, maybe just a flower sleep that's all right."
888 smiled, "Yeah, maybe it's just a nightmare. Are you always alone like this?"
"Yes, Aunt Eun's and mother came home in the afternoon. Aunt Eun's house has been sold. And, Aunt now lives with us. Aunt Eun has been my mother's best friend since childhood. So, I also love her like my own aunt. She is kind to me and mother. That's why I don't want her to die by suicide as I see it," Hyun Jae said.
"How did you know your aunt would die by suicide?"
"If I touch you while you're on duty, then I'll see a picture of how the soul you pick up meets death. Just like dad used to. I already told him not to go to work that day. But dad is still stubborn. I said. But, oh well, sometimes we do have to accept life's destiny sincerely."
