Thud!
A body hit the ground after the car crash! In the last few seconds of her life, Kim Hạ knew she was about to die and suddenly uttered with difficulty:
-"I... can't... accept... this!!!"
Kim Hạ's body seemed to fall into nothingness! A dark, cold space enveloped her.
She thought to herself:
"The Underworld...?"
She walked into a room where the dim, weak light wasn't bright enough to see anything.
She only saw that the room was like the practice room at the school she attended when she was alive.
What the hell!
As soon as she stepped in, she was startled by her own reflection in the mirror.
She secretly cursed whoever put two mirrors facing each other here, scaring the living daylights out of her.
Just as she collected herself, she let out a loud scream:
-"Aaaaaaaaa..."
Who is this? This isn't my face! Did dying mess with my eyes?!
-"WTF!!!"
She froze for 5 seconds, her mouth agape, as two shadowy figures stood behind her, watching her.
Although she knew she was dead, and these two must have also died and come here like her.
But she was still afraid of ghosts!!! She was so scared that she instinctively placed a hand on her chest, panting.
She no longer had a heart! If she was dead, where would a heart come from? And she didn't even feel any pain! The two shadowy figures suddenly appeared closer to her, and she saw the pale but incredibly beautiful face of the woman – why did it look so much like her own?
-"You... Your face...!!!"
Before she could finish her sentence, the woman spoke:
-"Yes. It's me! That face, that body, it's mine! Or, to be precise, my body will now be yours!"
-"How can this be!!! Didn't I just die?!!" Kim Hạ replied, stunned.
-"Your fate isn't over yet; a small oversight caused you this misfortune!" The man, emerging from the darkness, said with a gloomy voice. "..."
"If you want to return to life, I will help you!" The man continued in a somber tone.
-"Alright! I want to live!" Kim Hạ, unwilling to truly die, accepted.
-"Because the body you lived in your previous life was severely damaged and no longer intact. So, I can only help you live this life in the body of this host." The man said with a regretful expression.
-"What???" Kim Hạ continued, dumbfounded.
"..." "Why don't you let her continue living instead of me?" Kim Hạ asked curiously.
-"Perhaps it's fate. She cannot continue living!" The woman suddenly spoke up. "Please live well in my body, won't you?"
-"Don't you have any regrets?" Kim Hạ asked the woman.
-"Of course! How could I not?"
-"..."
-"But I hope you will fulfill those regrets for me!" The woman said with a sorrowful expression. "No one truly wants to die... but when one is too tired, too exhausted, to the point of being a wreck, what's the difference from being dead? It's just a pity..." The woman suddenly stopped.
-"Why me???" Kim Hạ was very curious but didn't dare to ask further, only managing to ask for the reason she was chosen.
-"Because you are Kim Hạ...! I believe you can do it!" The woman's firm voice echoed in her ears.
-"..."
-"Currently, you no longer have a heart, but I will help you live for two more years!" The grim reaper-like man said.
-"Two years??? I can only live for two years? Are you kidding me?!" Kim Hạ said angrily. "I haven't even had enough time to do anything!" Kim Hạ's insides were in turmoil.
-"Hold on, I haven't finished yet!" The man continued.
-"What else is there?!" Kim Hạ asked grumpily.
-"Within those two years, you can fully come back to life if you create a heart for yourself."
-"Create...!"
-"Yes!"
-"How can I do that!?!" Kim Hạ asked, at a loss.
-"The way is...! You must find true love! Love and grow together with that person, becoming one harmonious whole," the man replied cheerfully.
-"Where am I supposed to find true love?!" Kim Ha replied dejectedly.
She had never even had a crush before, let alone fallen in love.
-"Alright. I accept." Kim Ha replied after those few vague thoughts.
Kim Ha thought, if she could just live again, surely she, Kim Ha, wouldn't be without a handsome guy to love her!!! Hehehe.
Before she could even rejoice in her fantasies, the woman said:
-"Kim Ha, you are the second young miss of the Kim Group Textile Corporation, the largest in City A. Your childhood sweetheart and only best friend is Young Master Xu Che, son of Xu Kai, Director of City A's largest Hospital C."
-"Oh..." Kim Ha could only utter a sound before continuing to listen to the woman.
Of the entire story, she only remembered the most crucial part: the host's twin sister, named Kim Chen.
Kim Chen had died, and now the host only wanted her to find the cause of her sister's death.
That was what she regretted the most! Kim Ha was about to say something when she suddenly heard many voices around her telling her to wake up.
The figures of the woman and the man gradually faded, only two words reaching her ears: "Go now."
-"Kim Ha, wake up! Why are you lying here?!" A beautiful girl came to call and help Kim Ha up.
Kim Ha, still dazed, said:
-"Where is this???"
-"Did she fall and become stupid?" "Idiot!" "Hahaha..." The surrounding crowd's voices ceaselessly cursed at her.
Kim Ha placed her hand over her heart.
Just like in the dream, she no longer had a heart.
She had returned, reborn into another body, starting a different life.
She looked at her gaunt face in the gym mirror and knew that everything she had experienced was real.
