SILENTLY I'm following Aera right now. We're heading to her apartment. She offered me to stay with her. Exactly like how they take me in six years ago.

As always she uses her heart to understand things hard to explain. For me I never dare lie to her how sincere I am and she felt it. Though I never told her who I really am at the very least I never lie to her like literally.

Her apartment is located at the last floor. She pin her code and we get inside. The smell of rotten food welcomes me. I crunch my nose in split second maintaining my blank face. I can't complain I'll be living with her until my hiatus season ends.

"I haven't been in the house. I've left some left overs the other day." She bother informs me, she felt like explaining.

Except for the rotten smell her place looks cozy and warm. An apartment fit for two persons.

"You can use the other room. Uri abeoji and eommeoni stays here for few days." Pointing at the other door adjacent with hers. "This is the toilet and bathroom. "This time pointing at the door in the middle.

Do you have your stuff with you?" I shows her my bag pack. "Great. At least you got something. I don't have any spare clothes with me."

I nod my head.

"You're really not a fan of talking do you?"

I shrug my shoulders lightly. Not when I'm not with Rain. I wanted to say.

"Fine. I'm off to bed first. Let's settle the rest tomorrow."

I lightly purse my lips. I didn't move not until she closes the door. Getting inside the room I place my bag back on the bed then straight over the window. The usual I check all the angles of my current location. 

Possible escape routs.

"YEON HEEYA..." Aera calls me the moment  she got out her room. It's past eight, she really spent her sleep well. She told me she's free today so I didn't mind waking her up.

"Pap meokja." I glance at her placing the soup in the middle of the table. "I'm sorry I took over your kitchen."

"Whoa!!" She roamed her eyes satisfied of what she sees. The house is already clean and organize. I already washed her clothes. Then I got our breakfast.

"Anja." Inviting her to sit.

"You haven't change. You're miss organize and clean." She complimented and sit. "Since I got a job, I barely eat home cooked meal. Only if eomma's around." She tasted the soup. "Hmm...matshisseo." Delighted by it passing her taste testing.

"I'm sure they resented me." I focus my eyes on the food.

"They do. You died." Pointing me her spoon. "They resented not even have the chance to say thank you. Shin ajusshi and the rest of the villagers too."

My heart feel at ease knowing how they feel straight from her. "I missed them." I raise my head. Finally got my confidence back.

She sigh. "It would've been nice if I could tell them that you're alive that easily. I'm sure they'll come running. You've imprinted into their hearts Yeon Heeya."

We smile at each other.

"So how's life? Where were you working?" I ask her quite intrigued how she have been all these years?

Her smile widens. Her excitement kicks on.  "Tell you what. I'm living my dream!!" She giggles eyes we're twinkling. I raise my brows. As far as I remember she got a bucket full of dreams. I would like to ask which in particular?
