Finally the day arrived. Since the morning of 888 has felt a tremendous panic. A very embarrassing thing in 444's eyes, of course.
"Are you going to stay like this? Or are you leaving now?!" 888 turned and looked at 444, he took a deep breath.
"We don't need to go downstairs. We'll just go straight there. Remember, don't let Hyun see us." 444 could only shake his head. In an instant, they were in front of Hyun Jae's fence. It looks like Hyun Jae is running in a hurry, he seems to have overslept. 888 takes a deep breath, because Hyun Jae doesn't seem to see it. Not long after, Kim and Eun Tak came out and they went to work. 888 and 444 immediately followed in their footsteps.
"I actually feel a little lazy at work today. Since last night, my head feels so heavy," complained Kim. Eun Tak turned her head, a look of concern on her face.
"Then why are you insisting? Shouldn't you just go back. As long as we're not too far away. I'll take care of your permit later. And, this afternoon I'll take you to the doctor," said Eun Tak. However, Kim shook her head.
"No need, I'm still strong for work. Let's just go to the doctor this afternoon," Kim refused.
"But, if you feel you're not strong enough. You just go home" said Eun advised. Kim nodded in agreement with a smile and took Eun's hand. It's great to have such a kind and understanding friend.
"Did you hear that, 888? Kim is sick, too bad for her," said 444. 888 just shrugged his shoulders slowly.
"Do you remember how it hurts?" ask 888.
"Hahaha...it feels like I haven't felt pain in a long time."
Kim and Eun worked as usual. However, several times Kim massaged her head which felt a little dizzy. Yun Seri, her co-worker, who happened to notice Kim's movements, immediately approached.
"Are you sick, Kim? Just go home if you're sick. Let me do some of your work today," Yun Seri said. Her hand held Kim's forehead,
"You have a fever, Kim. Come on, let's get it over with. You go home, before it gets worse. I'll tell Eun later when you go home first."
"Is it okay?" Kim asked.
"Of course not. I'll tell Manager Joon that you're sick. Come on, I'll take you to the front."
Kim nodded. She also packed up her things. And, get up. Her head felt heavy and it hurt even more now. Yun immediately helped Kim to step. Just as they opened the door to the room, a tall and handsome man entered. He is their Joon Hyung manager.
"What's this? Why Kim?" he asked when he saw Kim looking pale on Yun's shoulder.
"She has a fever, manager Joon."
"Ah, go home and rest then, Kim. Are you strong enough to walk all the way to the bus stop?" asked Joon, a little worried. Kim smiled and nodded. "I'm okay, manager. It's been since last night my head has been hurting. Maybe by resting I will be healthy again," Kim answered politely.
"Okay, you take her to the front, Yun. After that you go straight back to work."
"Okay, manager Joon," replied Yun Seri. Kim and Yoon walked to the front of the main lobby. After that, Kim slowly let go of Yun's hand.
"That's it, Yun. I can do it myself. You go back to work, please tell Eun Ta, if I go home first." "Be careful, Kim. You can take a taxi, if you can't make it to the bus stop."
Kim smiled as she stroked Yun's shoulder.
"Don't worry, thank you. I'll be home first." Kim walked out of the building. She walked slowly, her head felt so heavy. Plus the weather today is so hot. Kim's head grew dizzy. Kim decided to stick with the bus instead. She felt sorry if she had to use a taxi. What's more, she has to save money for Hyun Jae's school fees again. She used her savings yesterday to help Eun pay off her debt. So, Kim felt the need to downsize a bit. The bus stop is across from the building where Kim works. So, she had to cross first. However, Kim's heavy head and slightly dizzy eyes kept Kim from paying attention to the road. A truck from the right was speeding towards her. 888 and 444 appear to be standing behind Kim.
At that time, for some reason 888's feelings seemed contradictory. I don't know what he was thinking, he immediately took off the pin he was wearing, ran to Kim and pushed her onto the road. Thus, the passing truck did not hit her. It all happened so fast. 444 seemed a little taken aback by what 888 did. Kim, who was shocked and a little hurt, immediately fell unconscious. Several people who saw the incident immediately approached 888 and Kim.
"Wow, you are such a fast young man. I didn't see where you came from. But, fortunately you helped this madam. Otherwise she would be dead," said a middle-aged man standing near them. "Do you know her, young man? Take a look at his ID. Are there any wounds?" asked a mother. 888 looked at them all. His breath hitched a little,
"Ah, I happen to know her. Let me take her home, thank you all," replied 888.
"Let me stop the taxi, you wait a moment," said a man who seemed to be standing there. Before long, a taxi came and 888 immediately picked up Kim's body. After thanking everyone, 888 immediately got into the taxi. He immediately mentioned the address where Kim lives to the taxi driver.
444 just shook his head. He sat in the front seat of the taxi. Of course the taxi driver didn't see 444, because he didn't remove the pin like 888 did. 888 pulled out a black envelope from his pocket. Kim Min Jae's name had disappeared from the death certificate in his pocket. And, he had broken the rules of the heavens today. Arriving at Kim's house, 888 immediately paid for a taxi and carried Kim's body. He was a little confused because he didn't know where the house keys were kept. However, 444 immediately removed the pin after the taxi passed and helped find the keys in Kim's bag. Then open the door of the house. 888 went straight in and laid Kim down on the couch. Then he sat down and waited for Kim to come to her senses.
"Are you crazy? What do you really think of 888? Do you know the consequences? You could be punished. What if your spirit is destroyed by the Heavenly King and you can't reincarnate?" 888 shrugged his shoulders. Right now he didn't want to think about it just yet. The important thing is that he managed to save Kim Min Jae's life. He was just thinking about what he had seen while holding Kim. There are so many pictures of Kim's life in the past that he saw.
"Why is there someone who looks like me in Kim's previous life?" mumble 888.
Kim slowly opened her eyes. She tried to sit up, but her head hurt so bad. 888 who saw Kim start to regain consciousness immediately approached and helped Kim to sit down.
"Are you awake, madam?"
"Ah, where is this? You... ah, my God you're Young Joo right?" said Kim.
"That's right, you have a fever. And just now a truck almost hit you," replied 888.
"You brought me home. Ah, I'm sorry for bothering you. Since last night I have had a headache. But, I forced myself to work. Luckily, you saw and saved me. I bother you a lot. Thank you very much," said Kim. 888 smiled,
"Next time, if you're sick don't push yourself madam. You might not survive and die at the scene," said 444. Kim turned and smiled.
"Ah, Chin Hae. Thanks to you too. You two are so kind.
"Do you want us to take you to the hospital, madam? You seem to have a fever. It would be dangerous if you let it go," said 888.
"Don't bother. This afternoon after Eun comes home, I can go to the hospital with her. Ah, don't call me madam. Just call sister or Kim," said Kim. 888 walked to the kitchen and got Kim a glass of water.
"What time is Hyun coming home? Have you eaten? Let me make porridge. Wait a minute, you take care of Kim, Chin Hae." Kim just smiled weakly, while 888 returned to the kitchen and made Kim a bowl of porridge. He boiled an egg for Kim to eat. After the porridge was ready, he took it to the front room.
"I'm so troublesome for you, Young Joo. Thank you very much. Do you guys work near where I work too? I think last week I had a collision with Chin Hae." 888 and 444 looked at each other. How is it possible to explain that they are angels of death who are supposed to take his soul to the sky.
"We just happened to be working on something nearby," 888 replied.
"Ah, yes I understand."
Suddenly, Hyun Jae comes home. She was surprised to see 888 and 444 in her living room with her mother.
"Mom's not working? What's this? Why are they here?"
"Say hello first, Hyun. Where are your manners? They helped me earlier. If it wasn't for the both of them, maybe now you're at the funeral home to cremate my body," said Kim. Hyun immediately narrowed her eyes and glared at 888.
"Yeah...why are you looking at me like that? It wasn't me who nearly hurt your mother," said 888 "Then??" Kim pulled Hyun Jae's hand so that the girl sat beside him.
"This morning, I was not feeling well. I don't know why she suddenly had a fever. So, I came home early. However, when I crossed the road, I was not careful. Mom. Luckily, Young Jo pushed me onto the sidewalk.
After that, I passed out and it was the both of them who brought me home. In fact, seeing this, Young Joo has made porridge for me. Come on, thank Uncle Young Joo and Uncle Chin Hae." "I'm sorry uncle, thank you for saving my mother," Hyun Jae said. 888 just nodded.
"Let me feed you the porridge, mom. After this, you have to sleep in the room," Hyun Jae said as she took a bowl of porridge and began to feed Kim to eat. When she's done, Hyun-jae leads her mother slowly into the bedroom to rest. Hyun Jae lovingly helps Kim lie down, then covers her mother's body. After seeing Kim asleep, Hyun Jae rushed out. He saw 888 and 444 standing at her door.
"Really? You saved my mother? You should have picked my mother up, right? For the past few days you must have been hiding from me so I couldn't see you. Is that right?" said Hyun Jae.
444 took a deep breath. "Yes, he has violated the rules of heaven and took the risk to save your mother," replied 444 a little curtly. Hyun Jae holds her mouth. While widening her eyes.
"So, what you said is true?"
"Do you know what the risk is? Spirit 888 can be destroyed by a god. And, if that happens, he won't be able to be reincarnated forever. It's useless for him to serve his sentence for more than 150 years," grumbled 444. Hyun Jae is stunned. He looked at 444 with a look of regret.
"I'm sorry, I was angry earlier. I don't know, if mom... usually a few days before death, I always see the grim reaper. But, I don't see her near my mother. If only I knew..."
"You can't see the grim reaper, because we are the grim reapers who were assigned to pick up your mother. However, he doesn't have the heart to hurt your feelings. He can't bear to imagine if you become an orphan later," said 444. Hyun Jae didn't know what else to say.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Young Joo. I've caused you trouble." 888 just smiled,
"Don't worry, I'll take the risk," said 888 in a firm voice. Hyun Jae took a deep breath. She sat on the terrace of her house staring
his mother's flower garden with a feeling of uncertainty. "If I may ask, what was the reason for helping my mother? Do you remember why last time I was angry with you because of the little girl who was hit? At that time, you insisted not to help the child. kindness to me? Wouldn't it have been easier if you had appeared early on so that I could know what would happen to mom and save mommy. Why did you have to take the risk?" Hyun Jae asked at 888. 888 sighed, he sat down next to Hyun Jae.
"I don't know, all of a sudden, I can't bear to see you worried. However, I also don't want you to violate fate. However, I myself can't bear to make you sad. And, I myself don't understand why I'm being so sentimental like a human. The feeling was so strong. So, when I saw your mother, suddenly I seemed to see you in the distance waving and asking me to help your mother," said 888. Meanwhile, the king of heaven and the gods of hell meet at a place called the waiting hill. On this hill, the spirits who have not been able to reincarnate live in an inn called the Jeongwol Hotel. In this hotel the spirits who have not yet had the time to be reincarnated will await. Some have been waiting for decades, even hundreds of years. The spirits who live in this hotel are good spirits. They have not been able to reincarnate because there is still something they are waiting for or there is still something that makes them uneasy about leaving the world.
