I huffed loudly as I placed my heavy bags in the trunk of the taxi. Pulling up the sleeve of my white sweater, I wiped away the sweat on my forehead.

The taxi driver didn't even bother to at least get out to help me, and the hot weather isn't helping either.

I turned around and saw my mom approaching me with my purse in hand. "Here honey," She handed me my bag.

"I'm sorry I couldn't help you carry your bags, you know your mother has a back problem." She joked.

I chuckled at her. "It's alright mom, and you shouldn't joke about things like that." I shook my head softly.

I then noticed mom glancing at the driver who was inside the taxi, smoking a cigarette.

"That damn taxi driver didn't even help you?" She said loudly while scoffing. "Mom!" I whisper-shouted at her, nudging her with my elbow softly not to hurt her. "It's fine. Plus, you know how strong I am." I grinned at her.

She raised an eyebrow. "Mhm, sure you are." We both laughed, but then someone had to ruin the mood.

"Yah! Can you two hurry the fuck up?!" The taxi driver shouted at us angrily. My mom rolled her eyes at him as I quietly chuckled at her.

"What an asshole." She mumbled before sighing.

"Well, remember to take care of yourself, okay Da-eun?" She smiled softly at me while looking like she was about to cry.

I nodded, embracing her into a hug. "Okay mom, and don't cry. I'll be visiting from time to time." I pulled back from the hug.

"Goodbye Mom!" I waved at her before entering the taxi. From my peripheral vision, I could see her waving back at me with a smile that also made me smile.

I then leaned on the seat, taking out my phone to pass the time.

"Hey lady, wake up!" An annoying voice woke me up.

"H-Huh?.." I squinted my eyes.

We're already here? Holy shit, I didn't notice I slept.

I groaned softly before taking out my wallet. "How much do I have to pay?" I asked him.

"It's 64,916 won." He said as I froze.

6-64,916 won..?!? That's like 50 dollars.. and Green Home Apartment wasn't that far from my home..

I sighed, annoyed. I took out the money and gave it to him. I got out of the taxi, going to the trunk and taking out my bags.

After struggling to remove my bags, I looked up at the run-down building in front of me.

It didn't look like this in the website.. but then again, I shouldn't judge a book by it's cover.

I then realized that I couldn't carry all of my stuff to the entrance. I had a hard time just placing the bags one by one in the trunk and taking them out, what more to carry them all to the entrance?
