"I'll be going out now!" I place my hand on the wall, sliding it up and down and left to right. "Geez... Where is the doorkno-"

" Woah, wait a minute! Where are you going?" They place their hand onto mines. Judging by the familiar voice, it's was Hoseok's.

"I already told you! I'm just going down to the plaza. I need to buy some things." I smile eagerly. "Plaza? In that case, let me go with-"

"Plaza? In that case, let me go with-"

"Hobi I'm fine! I can manage myself." I said with annoyance.

"Are you sure?" Hoseok ask in a concerning tone. "... I'm sorry. I don't mean to bother you, but... I don't know. I just get worried sometimes..."

" Such a troublesome older brother.." I reach for Hoseok's shoulder. "I'll be home before 2pm." I wrap my arms around his shoulder for a tight hug. "After that, we can go down to the Tennis Court that you are always talking about." I grin. I have such a nice brother looking out for me.

"Ah yes! The Tennis Court! I've been going there for a while now! I can't wait for you to meet my tennis buddies!" Hoseok said as I hear him open the door from behind. "Just... Get home safety for me."

"I will!" I let go of him and turn around to feel the warm heat on the other side. as I took a step, I see and feel a nice glow; it's the perfect weather to be outside right now. I heard the door closed behind me, I took out my cane within my bag and start walking.

I walk on the concrete and is immediately greeted by the sound of many people and busy it's been such a long time since I went out by myself, I kind of like it, like... It feels nice. Sadly, this loud yet quiet moment ended quickly:

"Omg look, a crippled"

"Is that a support cane?"

"Poor girl...at such a young age.."

"Quickly! Take a picture!"

I may be blind but certainly not deaf! Geez people these days are so rude! Like can't you keep it to yourself? I'm not an alien am I?...

Ever since I was a little kid, I have always been blind. My family is not wealthy at all so we can't afford surgery for me. I didn't want to go through bullying and troubles so I've been in homeschool throughout my childhood. Mom and Dad works all the time so it's always been me, Hoseok, and Dawon helping each other out. We even move in all together the moment we all became adults. I spent my whole life relying on others.

By the power within me (and my voice navigator device) , I was able to get to the plaza steadily. I slide my hand against the wall until I feel a braille sign! It reads: Support Center .

I hesitate a bit before clearing my voice, I'm a bit nervous.. "Excuse me? Is there anyone there?"

"Ah yes! Can I help you?" A deep voice reply. I hear him mutter the words: "oh..."

A simple "oh" won't stop me from achieving my goal! "Can you please take me to the Sport Shop?"

"Well of course.."

I grab onto the arm of the staff and they slowly but surely walk with me to the Shop. After opening the doors for me, the support staff help me get a employee for assistance. I greet them goodbye and turn to the employee.

"Can you please tell me where are your tennis rackets?"

"Sure, come this way." A female voice said.

I follow the lady by her voice until she stop me.

"Lucky you, this is our last racket. And, it's premium quality too."
