It is the type of coldness that reaches into my bones, as if my heart were a door left wide open to the icy wind, slamming only to open again. The only thing to do is keep moving, keep heading toward home and the steady warmth of the hearth. The sky is rolling blanket of cloud the color of wet ash, and the ground its dank reflection. Each step becomes a prayer for home as we walk, seeing the light from the doorway in our flickering daydreams, letting it become more real than the stormy night.
It was the 31st of december a late dark night while I was sitting on a park bench. I could feel the blizzard coming , I could smell the coldness of the late night. I could hear the cars racing past me. I could hear the laughing of the children as they ran right into their parent's arms. I could feel the baby snowflakes on my nose and ears . I wasn't that bundled up I only had my winter boots on and a thin sweater underneath my kind of big winter jacket and my mitt's. One more year had passed. I saw couples passing by me with their hands clasped in each other's as they wore matching outfits and looked lovingly at each other. "I'll die single i guess" i said as i chuckled and shook my head from side to side.
My family was gone, I miss them alot. I just wanted to have someone to at least listen to all the thoughts that have occupied my mind. "Noona" i heard a boy saying as i looked at him. "Yes?".
"Noona, this is for you..." he said handing out a small candy to me. "And why are you giving this to me, kid?" i questioned him. "Dad says even when christmas is over, Santa watches us. I give you a simple candy because you seem to be alone. Who knows Santa might get me what i want." he said and ran away giggling before i could even get a chance to thank him further.
I stood smiling and placed the candy in my mouth and started walking towards my home. Walking for approximately 10 minutes i reached the threshold of my house only to be greeted by my "LANDLORD". Yea , he's a bitchy man who wants his rent at 12 am every month. Yes you heard it right, 12 am. "Stop looking at me like that please. It's new year's eve . And it's 11 am right now." he widened his eyes and looked at me then without saying anything left from there. "What was that?" i thought.
I unlocked the door and entered inside. With a sigh i placed my coat on the couch and went to set up my laptop. Me and my friends, Kat and Julie planned a video call night thingy today. We wanted to have a sleepover party but Kat's parents are overprotective and Julie's parents are extremely rich and thus they don't like me. I placed my laptop on the bed in my room and connected it to a charger. Changing into my comfy clothes , i comfortably sat on my bed covering my body till the chest with the quilt. "Wait a minute , something's missing." i said as i proceeded to think. While i was think i heard a rumbling kind of funny sound from within my stomach. "Oh snacks you need, haha" i lazily leaped out of my bed and rushed to the kitchen . While i put the popcorn in the oven , i heated some water in the kettle so that it could later come to use when i needed to eat my ramen noodles. As i was almost ready i heard the ringtone of the skype call. I quickly rushed to my room and keeping the things by the nightstand jumped inside the duvet and accepted the call.
"HELLO Y/N-IE!!" Julie screamed as i smiled at them. "WAAH! Just see the amount of snacks beside her. Guess not having parents is profitable in a way...." said Kat and the next moment Julie scowled at her as she knew that i things regarding my parents hurt me from within.
"S-sorry.." i cut her off "It's fine Kat , let's not ruin our mood."
We shared the screen and binge watched a lot of videos on YouTube. when i heard the bell ringing at 12 am. "oh God not again.." i scowled.
I went to my almirah and opened the chest using the keys . Taking out a bundle of money i went downstairs. Opening the door , the scene was just like i expected. The old man , my landlord, standing with his left hand out ready to receive the money. "HAPPY NEW YEAR UNCLE..." i said but received no response. Sighing i placed the amount in his hand and he went away quietly.
At around 3 am while we were playing truth and dare i selected dare which was a wrong move. They are now creating my profile on a global dating app and they will choose 7 boys in this week(1 boy each day for me) whom i'll have to go out on a date with.
"We're ready...." Julie said as i saw my profile displayed on the pc.

"Umm...guys. I'm not sure regarding all this shit." i said.
"Just go for it and send us a screen recording as a proof..." Julie said smiling.. "HAPPY NEW YEAR ONCE AGAIN...LET'S FINALLY END THIS CALL...." Kat said and they both left the call.
"So i first need to select seven profiles....." i scrolled down the menu....
