[NARRATION – SOOJIN]
[Like A Fool (Instrumental) by TWICE intro playing in the background]
It is almost the end of summer. Soon, autumn will come. My girls and I are still struggling to find a good college – well at least some of us. Soyeon seems to already given up on it and Yuqi kept on getting scold in every dinner nights by her dad because of it. I really hope that I can do something for them. Anything. I can't believe I am saying this but O Lord, please send me a sign...
IN SOYEON'S NEIGHBORHOOD
[Dollar ($$$) Instrumental by G-IDLE playing as intro of the scene]
The sound of shoes running towards the crowd and shouting are quite often heard in the neighborhood. It is barely quiet where Soyeon's lives and one of the reasons of what's happening there was mostly caused by her.
In a quiet alley, Soyeon stop for a while after successfully got away from another worker from another convenient store several blocks from where she hides. Standing against the wall, catching her breath as she look around to check before she take out one cigarette out of the Marlboro Red pack that she had stolen. As she finally rest assured, she lean her back to the wall and place the cigarette butt to her lips before lights it up. After taking a few hit of the cigarette, her phone rang.
[Background music fades out...]
"Hm? Who's calling this early morning?" She said to herself as she is taking out her phone of her pocket and pick up that call.
"SOYEON SOYEON SOYEON!! OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD!" Yuqi shouted as soon as Soyeon picked up the phone.
Shocked at Yuqi's loud voice, Soyeon almost curse out at her while holding the phone away from her ear from a second, "Aish- this kid." She put it back to her ear. "What is it, Yuqi?"
"I'VE GOT GOOD NEWS! OH OH WAIT WAIT... WE SHOULD DEFINITELY JUST OPEN UP THE CAMERA, LET'S VIDEO CALL! I NEED TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING!!" Yuqi excitedly said while looking for the camera button. "Oh oh, wait. Where the hell is this camera button- OH HERE!" She talked to herself before she finally open the camera.
Soyeon holds up her phone and smiles widely in sarcastic way at the camera as soon as the video call connected, "You're looking at me now, happy? So what is it?"
Yuqi waves happily to the camera to greet Soyeon, "Hey, Soyeon-ie! What's up?! Oh hey, are you outside or something?" She asked as she checks the background from her phone curiously.
Soyeon almost lose her patience when Yuqi seems to ignore her questions but she keep a smile on her face while the tone of her voice started to change, "Yuqi, while I'm asking nicely..."
Before Soyeon is able to finish her sentence, Yuqi took the hint, "O-okay, okay. Relaaax. What I'm trying to say is that..." She look for something on her bed. "Wait- where is it, where is it?!" Panicked for no reasons, she gets up from the bed then eventually found what she look for. "Oh here it is!" She showed a fancy looking letter to the camera. "LOOK WHO'S GOING TO COLLEGE THIS FALL!!!"
Soyeon surprised at the news and it bring back the smile to her face before throwing the cigarette's butt to the ground, "Whoa, really? Gosh, Yuqi, that is so cool! Congratulation! Which college it is?" Soyeon asked eagerly.
Feels prouder than she ever before, Yuqi non-stop smiling from ear to ear, "Oh well... It's Song Yu Qi. But I'm not quite sure what college this is." She look back at the letter. "BUT! IT SURE LOOKS PROMOSING. I mean- look at this fancy envelope!" She showed off the envelope with a wax seal stamp. "A regular college wouldn't use this kind of envelope."
