Jejudo .

The morning of the flight was insanely.. peaceful. Sejeong was still at our house, not realizing she had brought her stuff. I was already packed, but Hyunjin being more of a messy bitch, his room was still messy and bags unpacked. But all three of us managed.

"Aish, how do you manage to be this messy? And calm about it?!" I hit him, getting mad. Sejeong laughs, continuing to yawn after. "Be nice. It's still early morning. We have until 12. I'd rather you go put your bags and get ready okay?" She tells me with that insanely soft morning voice of hers. I'm not sure how she just manages to be perfect and sweet. On the other hand, my temper would kill the act.

I put my slippers on, my messy hair, and I was still in my nightwear. I walk outside with my bags, yawning. I put them in Hyunjin's car, seeing someone on the other side of the street. I could easily spot Haneul when I looked around. "Yah! HANEUL!" I yell across the street from the sidewalk. She turns around and spots me almost immediately. "Hey!" I could hear her try to yell with all her might. Her voice just disappears when it's early morning.

Haneul walked over to my neighborhood with her bags, putting them in Hyunjin's car. "Hey wait. Let's go grab something from the vendors across the street. They have to be open right now I'm sure." Haneul nods, looking at my phone. I checked if the vendors were open. They were opening in five minutes, so we walked in our pajamas all the way there. True friendship I tell you. 

Incoming call from 'Fave Jeong'

"Hurry home soon. And if you're getting ice cream, make sure to get some for us." "Alright, Jeong. We'll be soon." We speed walked, but not too fast. It was 9:30 a.m. The flight leaves at 12. We had enough time just to get ice cream and go home quickly. 

"Haneul, the plan here is that you get ready soon and come to our house so we can quickly leave. Don't forget the head pillows and blankets for us okay?" "I got it covered. Sigh." Who even says sigh out loud? "I wish, wish wishh I was you, Hana Hwang."   "Yah, are you daydreaming again? And no, you don't want to be me, unless you want to have beef with a cigarette smoker and a dancer brother who just busts a move in your room and leaves." "But still, that's the perks of your life! You have everything, while I'm sitting here. A side character. I hate it." 

"You'll be fine, Na Haneul. I'll make sure you're a main character with me. You can be part of this so-called drama. You live across the street from me." She smiled at me, and we just gossiped the rest of the way to the vendors. "At least you make me feel included. Those girl groups at school are so annoying and fake. Honestly, what went through their mind in 7th year?" "I don't know. Girls change like that. Have you seen Sejeong though? Just so perfect." 

We get our ice cream as she scrolls on her phone. She turned her brightness up so I could see too. And there it was. Lee Nari's Instagram.  Her posts are so rachet... "Smokin' that za wit Jaseoul" They were so ghetto I couldn't even tell if she was Korean or just a wannabe ghetto. She types in Korean of course, but the translation is horrid. "Honestly, fuck life, and you too." With a picture of a cake with cigarettes as the candles? Wow. Mental issues. At least she doesn't do vape. Or maybe she might.

"Jeez, stop looking at that," I say as I turn my head the other way, eating my ice cream. I catch Jeong and Hyunjin outside, by the car, loading their bags in. Hyunjin spots me, and runs over like a child waiting for something.. "What flavor did you get? Tell me, tell me!" I roll my eyes and give him the bag of ice cream. "See you Haneul," I say as she crosses the road to her house. I'm walking with Hyunjin back to the car."Bye, text me okay? Or maybe just call me." 

"I have to get changed. I'll be out in a bit." The time was 10:10. I didn't know it would take so long just to get ice cream. Well, we gossip a lot. I mean, at least I got everything off my chest so I can sit back and enjoy the plane trip to Jejudo. Not sure why they didn't take a car though. Hm.. Everyone paid for their tickets. My thinking can overtake my mind sometimes. Whatever.

I showered. The time was 10:47. I can take a short amount of time depending on what situation I'm in. Skincare and everything, I wore a white shirt, baggy blue jacket, and white sweats. I wore blue light glasses and a bucket hat. I put on light, natural makeup. 

I'm walking over to Hyunjin's room to check out the mess. All of it was gone and his room was straightened. That's a first, something I thought would never happen. They were both getting ready. Sejeong came out of the bathroom a minute later after I left his room.
