After a long day it was finally time to go to bed and repeat the cycle again the next day....

Hearing the alarm ring I wake up feeling fatigued like always. Getting ready for school I take a deep breath and head out the door hoping for the best.

As I was walking down the road I see a young
boy standing next to the river .I tried to look at his face but I wasn't able to see it. I ignored him thinking he's probably there to relax and head to school. Soon I reached my class and sat down. As I was doing so, the class door burst open and my best friend came in screaming "OMG!! Yumi you won't believe this there was a suicide this morning and it happened at the river, Don't you go in that direction?" She said handing me her phone showing me a picture. It was the same boy I had seen this morning.

A rush of guilt filled me replaying the scene in my head over and over again thinking of ways I could've saved that boys life if I hadn't walked away I looked back at my best friend "Arin... I saw that boy this morning" I said feeling a bit guilty "what? Omg I'm sure you feel bad try to forget about" I nod still feeling that lingering feeling of guilt.Soon class started and everyone went back to their seats.

Soon it was time for lunch and as me and Arin were walking down the hall we saw Ji-woo the most beautiful and popular girl of the school but her insides are as rotten as a chicken. I laugh at my own thoughts but quickly see she's bullying a kid again like she always does. We quickly walk past Ji-woo cause we didn't want to get in trouble with her.

Entering the cafeteria we grab our plates and head in line. As I was walking down to the table I bump into someone and look up to say sorry and as I was doing so my jaw almost dropped at the beautiful face In front of me he looked like a real life statue and I was stunned not knowing what to say. He quickly said sorry and rushed out the cafeteria, Too bad I couldn't get his name. Still stunned I walked to the table where I see arin waiting for me. The day quickly went by mostly thinking of the boy I saw in the cafeteria.

As I was walking back home I start feeling guilty again for the boy and look at the river, There i see a boy standing next to the river already feeling guilty for not saving the boy earlier I run to the boy to stop him and as I was shouting at him to not jump he turned to me and I halt mid steps, Tripping and scrapping my knees. The boy quickly ran over to me helping me up while I still looked at his face in shock, It was the same boy I saw in the cafeteria.

I quickly snap out of my thoughts and finally speak "were you about to jump? Why would you do that to your own life? Can you imagine how much pain your parents and all the people you know and love will suffer? Please you don't have to do this" he looked stunned for awhile and then he spoke

"um..I wasn't going to jump I was just trying to have a calm evening." "Oh uh I'm sorry for ruining your evening I just thought you might jump and that kind of scared me... well I'll get going then bye" I quickly turn around to run and hide in my tiny room because of the embarrassment I just faced but stopped when I heard him say "wait..would you like to sit next to me?" He said looking at me with those beautiful eyes almost making me melt on the spot.

As I sat down he grabbed his bag and took out a bandage " here, let me put this on your knee" my heart was racing as he put on the bandage. He was everything I could dream of , It was like a dream come true.

"So why did u think I was gonna jump?" I looked at him wondering if I should tell him or not. "There's no reason" I say smiling awkwardly. We talked for hours and soon it was time to say our goodbyes. "Hey thanks for your time it felt nice to have someone to talk to for once" he said smiling. "It felt great talking to you too. I must say time flew by fast" I laugh and look at his face still looking as handsome as ever even more so under the moonlight. He was just perfect no words could describe how beautiful he was.

I suddenly remembered to ask him about his name but before I could do so he spoke "so what's your name?" "Oh, my name is Yumi, Kim Yumi. What about you?" " my names is-" before he could finish his phone started ringing and he picked it up. He was talking on his phone for awhile and soon came back looking distressed "I'm sorry Yumi I have to go it was great meeting you though " before I could say anything he ran away and I looked at his figure disappearing into the darkness.

I sigh, once again I couldn't get his name. At this point I was dying out of curiosity I needed to know his name but every time something gets in the way or he has to go somewhere. I walk back to my house feeling a bit sad? I didn't know what I was feeling at this point all I could think was getting back to my bed and sleep it had been such a long day.

But with him it only felt like a second of my time..
