His Mischievous Time-Traveler: How To Capture A Celebrity Husband?

Chapter 3: If you don't find him, he will find you

Kang Si An. It would be a lie if I am not obsessed with that name.

"So, you are really going to die?" Cha Yoon Mi's eyes become round. "Is that why you didn't come to the college for the last few days? I thought that you were going places."

I rest my head on the table. It's hard not to be depressed. It's been four days. I don't know who my murderer is. I still have to go to my part-time jobs and meet people dressed like psychopaths.

"I didn't choose this life. This life chose me." I mutter under my breath.

"If I were you, I would call myself lucky." She sips the juice. "Listen, you know your murderer. You know the time and place. Then, shouldn't you just run away from this country and make sure that it doesn't happen? If you are not here when this happened, then it wouldn't be a problem."

"It's a problem, Yoon Mi." I sigh. I feel like I have aged years in the last few days. "My murderer knows that I can travel through time. He also told me that I cannot change the future. What is meant to happen...always happen in one or another way. Besides, he is a foreigner. What if I go abroad and meet him there? I don't have money to go abroad either."

"So, if you run away, you might end up meeting your killer anyway." My best friend is taking this better than me. "How about we find your killer first and set a trap? We will tell the cops."

"That might not work. If I do something like that, it might become the exact reason why he wants to kill me."

"Like what happened in high school" She makes a face. "You reported Do Yoon because you saw him bully Sang Woo. When Do Yoon was warned, he thought that Sang Woo reported him. He nearly killed Sang Woo like you had seen him doing so. It's a circle."

I nod quietly. I was fourteen when it started. She was the first one to see me suddenly disappear for a moment. I traveled to a vast green field with no human in sight. I spent a few second there and reappeared on my spot. Both of us thought that it was a trick of the light. We laughed and went to our classroom. Then, it happened again during lunch time. I found myself at G-bridge alone. It was night time. I spent a few hours there before I came back to my school. I was holding a pamphlet from the future. That was when I realized that strange things were happening to me.

"I have to find the reason first." I stare at the dagger. "Why does he wants to kill me? Who is he exactly? How does he know about my ability?"

"Maybe, you should find him in the dreams." She suggests me with a hopeful smile. Other than time-traveling, I can also walk into the dreams of people. Unlike time travel, I can control dream walking.

"I don't want to." I pick up my bag. "Let's go to the lecture. We will be late."

"Who cares about the lecture?" She pulls my arm to make me sit. "You are going to be killed. How can you care about lectures?"

"I can't ruin my present because of my future." She snorts when she hears my words. I also find them absurd. "Yoon Mi, what if I find him? How would I deal with it? I am scared of that guy."

Both of us look at the murder weapon.

"We should destroy this weapon," She tells me thoughtfully. "He can't kill you if he doesn't have this."

"He can use a different weapon."

"Aish!" She smacks the back of my head. "Kyu Ri, listen, if you don't find him, he will find you. You will have an advantage if you find him first."

"You are right."

My grandmother has always warned me not to mess with time. If some things are set in order, they will still happen. If I try to change things, I might disappear like my eldest aunt. But, If I don't, I will be killed.

"Is his name really Kang Si An?" Yoon Mi is looking at her phone with an ashen face.

"Yes, Kang Si An. He has green eyes...like the newborn leaves in the spring." His eyes are unforgettable. Perhaps, because of the hate and disgust that he felt for me. I never thought that anyone could hate me that much.

"And the name of the movie that you saw in that movie poster?" Her eyes are glued to the screen.

"Our tangled destiny." I look at my watch. 11:15 AM. I should go back home and sleep. I feel too depressed. What if he finds me at my home? I have a headache.

"They are currently planning to shoot this movie." She gives me her phone with a blank stare. "This movie will be released after six months. Look at the male lead."

"I am not interested in the movie that will be released after my death." The name of the movie is lame. Our tangled destiny? I am sure that it's a soapy romantic movie that will end up in tragedy. I hate tragedies. My life is already a tragedy.

"Just look at the male lead." She narrows her eyes at me. "Look and tell me if it's him."

"My murderer can't be a celeb-" I drop the phone.

"So, it's him." She sighs loudly. "You will be murdered by him. How many of his crazy fans would love to be in your shoes?"

"..." I peek at the screen. A pair of familiar green eyes stare back at me. It's him. Kang Si An. The only difference is that his hair is black in the picture.

"His mother is a foreigner." She takes the phone. "He is twenty years old only. He used to be in a band before it dismantled. Then, he became a model. Now, he is a famous movie star in B country. Kyu Ri, we are twenty-one, poor, and studying like donkeys. Next year, we will be hunting for jobs like our seniors. There are these people who can earn money with just a smile."

I pull my hair in frustration. "I don't understand. What did I do to him? We have never met."

"Exactly!" She presses her palms together. "Now, we know our enemy. We must find out how you wronged him or how you are going to wrong him."

"Argh!" I smack my head on the table. A celebrity will kill me. I only have six months to change my fate.
