Chapter 142: Do you like the Keeper?
"Keeper?"
Kang Si An looks at her. He feels a bit dizzy. She's looking back at him with some concern. He looks at the hand. There's blood, but he's not in pain. He stares at her.
"Kang Si An, is that you?" She asks slowly.
Kang Si An doesn't know what to say for a long moment. He has all the memories of the original timeline and the changed one. He also knows what the Keeper did to Kyuri before the time turn and afterwards. He even has the memories of the Keeper having the conversation with Kyuri about. He can tell that the Keeper isn't here to kill Kwon Kyuri.
He lets out an exasperated sigh. "Not again."
How many people like having a special entity inside them?
"I feel the same." Kyuri leans back. "If I fail, you will also get wiped out."
"Keeper too." Kang Si An mentions, "Three of us will cease to exist."
She gives him a grave look. "Him too? That's why he's here. He didn't tell me though."
"He doesn't want to add more to your worries." Kang Si An doesn't like the Keeper. The Keeper killed Kwon Kyuri in the original timeline. He made Kyuri leave Kang Si An in each lifetime. Kang Si An is aware of the Keeper's feelings for her. Unlike before, Kang Si An is equally aware of the Keeper as the Keeper is aware of him.
The kiss between the Keeper and Kyuri. She knows that Kang Si An loves her. She said that she cared about him.

Another sigh escapes his lips. Same body. Two souls. They love the same woman. "Don't kiss the keeper again."
He can't forget her face that she showed to the keeper when he kissed her a while ago.
"Can you look into his memories?" Kyuri widens her eyes. "So you know what happened."
"I don't want to hide it. I have access to his memories. It's the same for him. Currently, he can use my body for 100 minutes per day."
Kang Si An wants to ask. 'Do you like the Keeper?'
But he can't bring himself to ask that.
Caring about someone is different from loving. She doesn't love him.
Kyuri covers her face. "My life is so complicated."
"I won't say anything anymore about your personal matters with the Keeper," Kang Si An says to her in a quiet voice. Rather than jealous, he's hurt. When Young Hwa was with her, he didn't feel this hurt. When it's the timekeeper, he can't stop feeling like this. Timekeeper has been with her like him. They have never been just Si An and Kyuri. Timekeeper was always there.
"That won't happen again." Kyuri doesn't think much about it. She was kissed by Si An's lips. What's new about it? For her, it's pretty much the same if the kiss was unwanted. "About Yoon Miran..."
"Before that, I want to suggest something." Kang Si An watches her seriously. "Don't send Little Hae to visit Jae Hyun's house until Kwak In-Sik is gone. I didn't know about Kwak In-Sik before. If I had known, I wouldn't send Little Hae to Yoon Miran's home. Before the matter is resolved, we should make sure that Little Hae doesn't get close to Jae Hyun. If things go wrong and we disappear, Little Hae should live with someone who can protect her"
Even if Jae Hyun is Wu Yixing, he can't let his daughter go anywhere close to danger.
"My brother loves her. He will take care of her." Kyuri has thought of this. If things go wrong, her family will be there for Little Hae. She will make other arrangements, just in case. "I can't think of anyone else."
Kwon Ki Hoon is a good man. Kang Si An doesn't have a complaint if it's him. Since Little Hae is close to Ki Hoon, it will be easier for her if they disappear.
"Does your hand hurt?" The question is a bit late, but she still asks. The blood is nearly dry on his hand.
"The Keeper came back with a few tricks." He smiles and shakes his head. "It's already healed."
"That's why he grabbed it that way." She frowns deeply. "Crazy man!"
"Tell me about Yoon Miran." Kang Si An won't let Kyuri get near that woman alone. "What kind of person is she?"
"The kind you don't want to mess with." Kyuri shudders at the thought. "I told her already that I won't bother about Kwak In-Sik. Maybe that's why she let me become her friend. We aren't exactly friends in the normal sense. Little Hae is close to Jae Hyun and Ha Neul. That's just all to it."
Kang Si An had met up with Kim Taeho in their free times for drinks. Kim Taeho is easy to talk with. Both of them love someone who doesn't love them back. In the last few months, they have gotten closer.
"The states of their souls..." Kyuri recalls what she felt when she touched Yoon Miran's hand. "The wavelength is the same. It's like Kwak In-Sik is almost one with Yoon Miran. Separating them by force might be quite harmful to Yoon Miran. I might end up killing her. The best way would be... Kwak In-Sik cooperating and leaving Yoon Miran."
"You can forget about that." Kang Si An doesn't think that a psychopathic man like Kwak In-Sik would ever willingly leave Yoon Miran. "By force, how difficult is it?"
"She's not willing to let go of Kwak In-Sik. She has a strong personality too." Kyuri looks at him. "I can't go into her mind directly when it is already overcrowded. She's quite cautious too. I think that approaching them in the dream realm is the best idea. I will directly face Kwak In-Sik instead of facing him through Yoon Miran."
"You don't like the dream realm." Kang Si An notices her reluctance. "I don't think that you should face Kwak In-Sik alone."
"Whether I like it or not, I have to do it alone," Kyuri tells him softly. "I don't want to leave Little Hae."
"I don't want to leave either." At times like this, Kang Si An feels the most useless. Kyuri can use her abilities, but he has no means to help her. "I want to be honest with Kim Taeho about everything. He should be aware."
"I think the same. He's the father. If things go wrong with Yoon Miran, she might die." Kyuri scratches her chin. "But I can't tell him. The Keeper told me that I can't tell my secrets to the unrelated humans. Will he believe you if you speak to him?"
"I will know only after talking to him."
Kang Si An sighs. Would Kim Taeho believe him?
