Chapter-248
—-----------------
It's obvious from the fact that she is so eager to keep him here that she can't really go anywhere else; otherwise, she would have immediately started to follow him
And there is another reason he thinks this is the reason, as he moved his eyes towards her wrist as he could easily see chains binding her to this place
'Is she imprisoned by someone else?' jinwoo inwardly asked this question to himself as he looked at the chains since he could tell this place was like a prison
"...." Ghost went silent as he stopped even though she was so happy that Jinwoo wasn't leaving but she had no topic to talk about
"..." jinwoo also wasn't saying anything at all right now too since he was also waiting for her to speak but soon realised this was just getting awkward
"So do you have anything to say" Jinwoo asked the next moment as he broke the silence since he thought it was better to ask this directly
"I-i Just do-dont w-want you to lea-leave" Ghost replied to him in a shuddering tone as she was afraid that this would upset her
sigh
'This is getting weird' Jinwoo couldn't help but say this as he released a tired sigh since thinking about this he realised that this ghost might be socially awkward even though this sounds unreal but it seems to be the truth
Meanwhile, he is someone who is never great at starting the conversation as he thought this might be one of the most unique interactions he's gonna have especially when he is talking with a ghost
'Whatever, I need to say something, let's start with basic' Jinwoo said this in his mind as he decided to speak finally and opened his mouth
"What's your name?" Jinwoo asked this as this is something very basic and it would be really great to know her name, so that he will know how to address her rather than speaking a word which will gonna upset her
"Hmmmmm" Ghost begin to think as she closes her eyes, while making noises like she is trying her best to remember
"I dont know" the ghost replied after a few moments as she gave up thinking about this, and honestly answered him
No matter how hard she tries, she can't really recall her name, she thinks this might be because she has not talked with another person for a very long time
"You dont know or you don't remember?" jinwoo asked this next as he wanted to verify this since both options have different possibilities
"Aren't they both the same?" Ghost asked this in an innocent tone as she looked towards him giving him the answer to his question
'Maybe she has forgotten her identity because she has been here for a long time?' he couldn't help but say this in his mind since this is a very likely possibility to occur
'If that is the case then asking her questions is meaningless' jinwoo said this next in his mind as he thought that even if he asked more questions even then he still wouldn't get any answers for those questions considering the fact that she has no memory
Which only makes him more confused about how to talk to her since if he tried to leave then she's gonna cry again and try her best to stop him
"You can't go anywhere from here?" He asked this as he wanted to hear it from her since it was very certain that this was the case especially those chains that were binding her
shiver
Hearing this, Ghost's entire body trembles, and seeing this, jinwoo knows he hit the mark as there is no greater response than that
nod
She slowly nodded her head as her mood dropped thinking about how he would now run from here as tears began to fill her eyes
'She certainly looks pitiful' jinwoo said in his mind as he couldn't help but feel pity for this ghost who is trapped in such a small place especially when he knows how it felt to be trapped in one place
Even though he could try to free her from here but there are many things he needed to keep in mind like why she was trapped here in the first place whether she was dangerous or if she was a victim
Another thing he is worried about is that if he tries to break the chain binding her in order to free her then there is no guarantee that she will not be harmed
"Do you have any questions about me?" jinwoo asked this question since keeping this silence is really awkward especially when she is just staring at him which is why he wanted her to ask him a question or at least say something to break this silence
"Uh- c-can you tell how you can see me and talk to me?" the ghost asked this in a somewhat nervous tone as she was afraid to upset him even though she was happy inside that he didnt run even after knowing she was trapped here
"Hm, let's say I am special compared to normal people" Jinwoo replied to her question, explaining that it was too complicated for her to understand especially when she had a blank piece of paper right now
"Really?" Ghost asked this as she kept a closed look on him due to his hoodie, she couldn't properly see his face but she could say for certain he looked very strong maybe it's a natural instinct of hers telling her this
nod
Jinwoo nodded his head and he confirmed what he had just said and then waited for her to speak again
"Th-then can yo-you free me fr-from here?" She asked this with a shuddering tone as well as a little bit of hope in her eyes thinking if only he could do it
"Yes, I can" Jinwoo replied with an honest answer without beating around the bush as he indeed is capable of doing such things
