Ghosts of Africa

________ WSA 2025 Entry _________ When it first appeared, no one could explain what it was. A towering tree that stood over the clouds and kissed the heavens had appeared overnight, visible to all regardless of location yet the tree could never be reached. It existed everywhere yet was not physically present. It began in Korea when a professional MMA fighter and a father of two—Ki-moon was on an early morning jog when a door before him, and out of curiosity, he entered. Ki-moon had a match booked for the next day so it wasn't hard to notice his disappearance. Two days later Ki-moon was declared missing. However, a week later, he returned with abilities that stunned the world. The world went crazy, and for a month, it was the only topic on everyone's lips. Ki-moon's interview explained how he summoned the door and not stumbled upon it as many believed. All you had to do was whisper the word "door" with the tree in mind. He warned about the horrors he went through that nearly cost his life, however no one paid heed. All they saw was the power he possessed and everyone wanted a piece of that. On the 3rd of October 2020, a day after Ki-moon's interview was released, five hundred million humans globally, summoned the door, and barely a hundred thousand people made it back alive, many traumatized. Unfortunately, the world was not given the chance to mourn their loss. On the 11th of 2020, 100 gates opened across the world, each gate leading to dungeons filled with resources and monsters that the world has never seen before. On that very day, Deviants were born… ____ {Warning: Author rant} ______ Hello guys, it's the world's biggest disappointment; Black_sheep. This is a shout-out to my fellow failures who failed to meet their family's expectations—you are not alone. In fact, I don't think there can be a greater failure than myself. Anyways, I'm using this opportunity to make this clear; the mc has a few loose screws up there. Don't judge. Every man is a reflection of his/her life experiences and sometimes those experiences turn even the sweetest souls to demons. Don't ask how I know this.

How To Fall In Love With Eyes

Yeon-Jun Shin works as a talented barista at a cozy coffee shop nestled in a bustling neighborhood. His life has been shaped by a challenging reality—he lives with selective mutism, a condition that emerged from the deep-rooted trauma he faced during his childhood. After enduring significant hardships, Yeon-Jun was fortunate to be adopted by the father of Sung-Hoon Cha, the ambitious young entrepreneur who owns the coffee shop where he now flourishes. Despite his struggles, Yeon-Jun has quietly become a beloved figure among the patrons, drawing them in with his exceptional brewing skills and strikingly good looks. However, Yeon-Jun's tranquil existence is disrupted when he crosses paths with Woo-San Kim, a man of considerable wealth and influence. Woo-San hails from an illustrious lineage, being an eighth-generation chaebol, and currently holds a prestigious position in the media sector. Despite his high status and the expectations that come with it, he harbors a simple yet profound passion—he relishes the experience of sipping a perfectly crafted coffee at his favorite local café. More than just the coffee itself, he finds himself inexplicably drawn to Yeon-Jun, the enigmatic barista who serves him. Though they share many moments in the coffee shop, their interactions remain silent, marked only by Woo-San's lingering gaze fixated on Yeon-Jun behind the counter. Something about Yeon-Jun captivates him—perhaps it’s the way his eyes light up while expertly preparing a latte or the serene aura he projects amid the café's lively atmosphere. However, this budding connection takes an unexpected turn when Woo-San's grandfather, intent on preserving the family's honorable legacy, imposes an arranged marriage upon him. Caught in an emotional whirlwind, Woo-San faces a profound dilemma: should he regard the weight of familial duty and embrace a life scripted by tradition, or follow the uncharted path that his heart seems to beckon him toward—toward Yeon-Jun? As each day unfolds, he must navigate the complexities of obligation and desire, weighing his grandfather's demands against the quiet yet stirring bond he has formed with the barista. In a world governed by riches and expectations, what choice will Woo-San ultimately make? But there is also something else that connects them all together. Something that cannot be abandoned, neither by Yeon-Jun nor by Woo-San, but they're hiding it from each other. Will they become vulnerable enough to share it, or will a passion to reveal this secret destroy everything between them?
