Curse of the Roses. That's what Hyunjin called it when he was little. Since childhood, he was special and stood out among children for his strangeness and mystery. Constant 'hallucinations' had been tormenting him for a long time, and even visits to specialists and treatment did not help him. And only one girl stood up to him. Beautiful, so young and with a terribly frightening aura. She was unhappy, broken and ruined, that’s why she also smelled of roses. It was only when he was a teenager that he realized that this could not be fixed. She is already like a real person and Hyunjin could no longer understand whether she was really just a hallucination.

Today was a very difficult day for him. He hasn't worked so much all week and right now he could afford to drink quite a bit. Hyunjin felt strange hands hugging him behind his back, and the smell of roses suddenly seemed to spread throughout the entire room.

“I asked you not to come again.”
