"Boring!"
"How boring!" Kim murmured as he was walking to school
What used to be a fun and interesting place to explore as a kid is now boring and old
Kim walk passed by his boring liabary that haven't change in decades, a park that is always the same and a shop that have been closed down ever since he got here as a kid
Kim was sick of this boring life, his everyday routine "Every day feels the same, it's always wake up, get ready for school, study, sleep, and repeat!" Thought Kim
"If only something interesting were to happen"
As Kim was talking to himself
A mysterious dark figure started to appear in the dark alleyway just as Kim was getting closer to it, the mysterious figure appear abruptly
"Something interesting you say?"
The sudden question that was aimed toward Kim had startled him
The mysterious man started talking to Kim out of nowhere
"Sorry sir, but I have to go to scho-"
Interrupting what Kim was about to say
"Here kid, let me tell you an interesting story…."
Before Kim can say anything or refuse to listen to the man story's, the mysterious man started telling his story
[ There once was a man who found an empty blank book on the street… he looked around for whoever the owner might be but to his shock, there was no one around him. The man believing nothing bad would happen, picks up the book to see what it's about. Seeing as the cover of the book is empty, the man didn't think much of it and decided to open up the book but once he had opened up the book to its first page… the man simply disappeared ]
The mysterious man then decided to stop for a while… almost like he was building up to something
"uhh sir, I have to g-"
There the mysterious Man yelled out "AND I SAW HIM DISAPPEAR IN FRONT OF MY VERY OWN EYES!!!"
Because of the mysterious man's sudden yelling, startled Kim, "Just what is this man talking about and is he crazy? Kim thought
"Sorry sir but I have to go!"
Kim after saying that sped up but until he got out of the mysterious man's sight, he heard the man say…
"Don't go picking up any empty book now…"
After hearing that, Kim looked over his shoulder to see the mysterious man, but the man was already long gone…. as if he was never there in the first place
Kim thought to himself "What a weird interaction…"
"Is it normal for people to tell strangers random stories?" Kim was confused by this interaction, trying to piece together what he just had heard
Kim didn't realize it but he was very late for school, due to the realization of being late, Kim began to run
Kim didn't believe that a stranger story's would ever make him late even if he didn't want to listen to it…
"Why didn't I just leave while that man was talking?" Kim questioned himself
The same question begins to repeat in his head over and over again
Kim while running to school sees an empty book lying on the ground
Kim runs past the empty book…
A second later he begins to backstep to where the book is…
"Strange, there seems to be an empty book here, no cover, nothing…"
Kim thought to himself "— that strange man story's …."
"Could it be real?" Kim doubted himself
"No way right? Like why would it be?"
"I should probably leave the book alone and go to school as I am super late by now…"
Kim began to run to school… a second later he came back
"I just want to be curious huh?"
"I mean like, a little peak won't hurt…right?"
Kim thought to himself, "A stranger story's can't be real… like there's no actual way right?" Kim while talking to himself asks that very question with a hesitating voice
Kim breathed in and out, his final decision is to pick up the empty cover book, he reach out his hand to grab the book but there he felt was a strange presence looking at him… he brush it off. When he picked up the book, he felt the strange presence growing stronger
Kim looked around, but there was no one around him, shocked by the sudden realization that he was the only one here in this area
Kim asks himself, "Am-am I going, crazy?!?"
Kim reassures himself that he is not going crazy…
"If only I haven't listened to that stranger's story" Kim talking to himself
Kim let out a long sigh and said "I'm only going to open up the book for a quick second and put it back to where I find it…"
Kim stares at the book
Kim was hesitant but slowly gives himself enough confidence to open up the book
Kim slowly started opening up the book…
"…."
Freezing half way before turning to the first page, Kim shouted out
"SCREW IT!"
Opening the book to its first page
The first page… seemed to be a Vast land, full of grass field, where the grass was long enough to be compare to a fence, where even breeze could be felt through the page…
Kim is not imagining, the first page of the book is "MOVING?!?!?!" Kim while saying that word let out a voice crack
"I-i must be going mad…. like this isn't normal right?"
Before Kim could do anything else after opening the book to its first page
The book fell…. nobody was near the empty cover book
The empty book lies there, not an inch has moved from the spot where it was found…
The mysterious figure stands over the empty cover book
"Must I say that… it's always those who believe life is boring always experiencing the most fulfilling moment imaginable before they even realize it…"
The mysterious figure picked up the empty cover book and started walking away…
Kim as he knows it…. transported into the book
He looked around, "This isn't the road to school…" Kim thought
He panickedly began to look around while shouting out
"JUST WHERE AM I?!?!?!?!??"
