Chapter 5 - You're a dude?

After two days of constantly putting on the mask, I was able to clear it off completely. I wasn't looking so different from the way I looked before but I couldn't be known easily.

For instance, my eyes were looking bigger than before and my lips looked pretty different as well. My face looked smaller but it still complimented my body. My hair was now completely blonde instead of its pure black color.

I liked the look, I still looked like Shin Suri just with a little bit of difference which could make one think I might be her look alike but no one could ever say we are the same people. It was perfect.

"Thank you, Mr. Oh, this way I don't have to worry about anything". He answered me with a nod and signaled me to follow him.

We went to his basement and he opened a very small box. I tried to see what was in it, but I couldn't because it was wrapped.

"Shin Suri, I know you'll want to leave and experience the life you've been missing". He said and sighed with his head down not saying anything for a few seconds. Then he looked at me and I could almost swear I saw his eye filled with tears.

"Take this with you, you'll need it and try as much as possible to stay away from isolated places".

'What is this, he doesn't sound like just a concerned old man, is there more to his relationship with Shin Suri'.

I tried to keep my thoughts to myself as much possible as ever. I stretch out my hands and took the object from him. He told me not to open it until I arrived at my final location.

"Oh by the way, when I saved you from the water bank, you had a small purse in your back pocket and it had a few documents".

He handed the wallet over to me and I thanked him for it.

The next day, I bid him farewell and left with absolutely nothing except for the object he gave me and my wallet which had a credit card. I happened to remember her codes so I used Mr. Oh's old computer to check it and it turns out Shin Suri had some cash in it. It wasn't much at all, it would not even be enough to travel with, but last night, when Mr. Oh gave me the object and her wallet, he also gave me some cash.

I plan to go back to City F. That's where I know the most but then again I haven't tried other places, I heard City C is one of the most beautiful cities in the country. It won't be bad to start a new life in a new city. I nodded my head in agreement with what just transpired in my head.

I boarded a bus going to City C since it was the city next to the small town Shin Suri was staying, I didn't need to use a plane but I'm going to be sitting for hours and I don't have a phone so I decided to check what was in the box Mr. Oh gave me.

Well don't blame me, I've never been obedient. I unwrapped the object and I couldn't believe my own eyes. I immediately sat up straight on the bus, anyone who saw me would think I just got a note from a serial killer.

"What, what is this. This belongs to the Cellers. Why would he give this to her?"

I raised my head in confusion. Right now I was beginning to doubt the man I spent almost 4 months with.

"Anyone related to the Cellers is bad news, what do I do?"

I wrapped it back and kept it in my pocket.

"Haaa my life is just about to get boring".

I fell asleep quite a number of times before the bus finally got to City C. When I dropped down, I realized it was already dark so I had to find a place to sleep as soon as possible.

I went around looking for a cafe so I can browse for free dorms before I can gather enough money to get my place.

"Aishhh if I could just access my I mean Li Meilin's account".

"Wait hold on, I can. I have all the access codes in my head".

I went over to a cafe and opened an online banking app with an encrypted email address so no one would ever trace it back to me. I placed in the code and transferred all the money in Li Meilin's name to Shin Suri's.

Since the site where the money was being transferred to was an illegal organization, after transactions, no one can know what happens in that account asides from the owner of the account which was Li Meilin but she's dead.

I was very happy with my achievement but when I got out of the cafe, I realized it was already so dark.

"Waaa no way, I actually stayed that long in the cafe? Haaa this is annoying and it seems the rain is going to pour heavily today".

I decided to look for a small hotel close by.

"Hello I'm Li.... I mean Shin Suri and I would like to book a room for the night".

"Hello miss Shin, the only room available for now is room 205 but it's a two-spaced room so you might have a roommate for the night, is that okay by you?"

"Yes anything is fine I just need a room. How much is it?"

After completing the bookings, I was led to my room. When I got there, the room was quiet and dark just the way I like it. In the dark, I found a bed and immediately jumped on it.

"Haaa I really hope that just for tonight, I won't get to see any roommate".

As soon as I said that, the lights turned on and I screamed like my life was about to be sapped right out of my body.

'Could it be this body, I really am not behaving like me'.

"Who are you?"

That question brought me back to my right senses. 'Wait, wait, wait, isn't that a voice of a man?' My face turned in a way that it could sprain if I turned it just a little more.

I stood up and went over to him. "You're a dude, hold on, a dude is my roommate? Haaaa you've got to be kidding me".
