Author's Note:
Hello! Okay. Okay. I know I shouldn't start a new story, but I'm totally hooked on the males from the Lee family that I've created starting from Collections of Love. Don't feel like you need to read Collections of Love or Curiosity Killed the Lady to understand this story, the Watcher. The two other stories just provide a bit more background information about the protagonist, Minjun, and his family. I'd be more than delighted if you do decide to read the other stories! :)
Anyways, here's the story featuring Lee Minjun. It's more slice of life? I can't really say it's a tragedy, but in some ways, it is. I hope you'll like it!
I'll release this story exclusively on my blog first before I upload it onto soompi. I'm waiting for some posters to be created before doing anything on soompi. :)
Thank you, and feel free to leave any comments! I'm more than happy to respond to them!
PS. I don't think this story will be too long. I'm expecting 15 chapters?
Chapter 1: You
I think of you less and less every day, but when I do, it
still hurts. And when I do, I always go to the library we used to frequent and
borrow that particular novel, Dom Casumurro. I never buy books of mine anyways.
I guess it’s because I like old things that have memories. I think every object
has a story of its own, and I like remembering each of them. Somehow, I think
it all started with my grandmother. Before my mother, my twin brother, Yeonjun,
and I started to live in the Lee household, he and I were staying with my
grandmother. She looked after us until we were six, just before she passed
away. I remember her holding my hand, and with her old, wrinkly fingers, she
pushed my hair behind my ear. “Minjun-ah,”
she croaked while lying in bed, “I want you to have Grandfather’s watch. It’s
on my dressing table.”
