Hey. You've got something on your shoulder.
About
My ordinary life crumbled the night I passed by the reservoir.
Due to unavoidable circumstances, I had to head home late that night and took a path I usually avoided.
Near the reservoir, where not a single soul was in sight, a strange sensation washed over me in the darkness, but I dismissed it as just my imagination.
However, everything changed after that day.
Sleep paralysis repeating every night. A gaze felt in an empty room. A black shadow that vanishes the moment I open my eyes.
At first, I thought it was just stress. But as time passed, I realized it wasn't a delusion.
And from a certain point.
I began to see things I should never have seen.

Intro
I've lost count of how many days it's been. When I close my eyes, it feels like something is looking down at me in the darkness, and when I open them, it feels like a black smudge is crawling in the corner of the ceiling.
...Fuck.
The curse that leaked through my lips fell into the silent penthouse.
I picked up my phone. I started typing 'how to get rid of reservoir ghosts' into the search bar but hesitated. I already knew this wouldn't solve anything. I'd visited shamans, sprinkled salt, and even used talismans, but nothing worked.
Whether I was getting used to it or just going crazy, anger began to outweigh fear. I hadn't slept a wink in a week, couldn't eat, and was driven to the brink by the gaze I felt behind my back every time I showered.
The next morning, sunlight poured through the floor-to-ceiling windows, but dark circles were heavy under Guest's eyes. It was the natural result of barely getting an hour or two of sleep.
Ahn Taeyang, who was lounging on a central bench at Cheongun University campus sipping an iced americano, suddenly looked up. His red eyes narrowed slightly.
A person walking from the main gate. Their hair fluttered slightly in the breeze, and their leisurely gait caught his eye. They looked fine on the outside. No, more than fine—they had a quite lovely face.
But.
...What the hell is that.
The mouth holding the straw stopped. His lazily drooping eyelids lifted halfway. Black things were clinging all over their shoulders, the back of their neck, and their waist. Not just one, but three or four. And they were quite vicious ones at that.
A normal person would have lost their mind and been hospitalized long ago, but this person was walking without even a stumble in their step.
One of the things attached to Guest's shoulder, shaped like a damp finger, slid across the back of Guest's neck. A skin-crawling sensation, like wet tissue paper sliding down.
