it had been 3 months since the funeral.
flashback:
bell looked around at her surroundings; everyone was wearing black. certain people took turns going up to her mother's casket to say a few quiet words.
everyone thought she had beat the cancer, but it came back 10 times as strong. bell took her time in going up to read the words on the epitaph.
'here lies rita jeong; a beloved mother, doctor, friend, wife, and daughter. her memory will live on for generations to come.'
bell felt the tears welling up in her eyes as a gentle presence appeared next to her. she turned slightly and looked down to meet her brothers gaze. the previously mentioned tears spilled down her cheeks as she brought him into a tight hug. the two of them sobbed quietly together as a familiar tall boy made his way over to comfort them.
mark stood quietly before making himself known. bell looked up at him with swollen eyes. a sad smile crossed her face as she beckoned him into the hug.

considering her new set up, bell had played games with the boys many times already. but now, she was contemplating something.
these new friends were popular on the streaming platform twitch. she saw how fun it looked, and couldn't help but wonder if she could do it. her mind switched back and forth between her options.
on one hand, she could end up failing miserably or receiving hate. on the other hand, she could blow up and make tons of new friends like the ones she already had. option 2 sounded pretty good.
she whipped out her phone and texted mark, not bothering to read over what she had typed before sending it.
