Pov Roseanne Park
I was just finishing packing my things when I heard Jisoo honking in front of my house. I could only be grateful a million times over that I had a friend with a car.
- Lia, don't forget your six o'clock medicine. - I stopped next to my parents' bed and kissed each of them on the forehead.
They had chosen to stay in the room together, even though the doctors recommended that they each have a bed, we realized over time that they were getting worse away from each other, so I did everything I could to put them together and make them comfortable at the same time. Which reminded me that I was still paying for that expensive orthopaedic bed.
Jisoo honked again and I walked out the door. My house was modest but comfortable. There were three bedrooms, two bathrooms, the living room and the little house. My parents had worked hard to buy it and whenever they could, they made it clear that it would be mine. I, on the other hand, was hoping that this moment would be a long time coming. I wondered what it would be like to live in a place that reminded me of them in every room and I didn't know if I could bear it.
- Hurry up. - I smiled at my best friend and settled into the front seat of the car.
- We don't want to be late on our first day, do we Roseanne? - I put on my seatbelt and Jisoo drove off, picking up tires on the streets of Australia.
- I'm still convinced that Lisa doesn't like me, and I know why. -I said, biting my lower lip.
- I disagree, it's not because you told her in the interview a thousand times that you weren't interested in music even after she asked you a thousand times.
- Speaking like that sounds a lot worse.
- You keep wasting opportunities Park, Lisa has a gift for seeing talent in people and I'm sure she's noticed.
- That's impossible Jisoo, I mentioned absolutely nothing in my application form.
- I just can't understand why you're denying it so much.
- I don't want to delude myself again with music Jisoo, I know from the outside it looks like I'm just throwing everything away but it's not like that I can't have such a focus in my life right now, let's assume she has a musical interest in me. That doesn't make any sense, she's never heard me sing, she knows how much I'd have to live in that studio recording and studying melodies and instruments.
- I know everything Rose, it's okay, I don't want to fight with you, I can only see beyond, I think the reason for all this fear is failure, wasting time.
- Yes, you're right, I can't risk myself like that, with my own country to look after, you know.
- I understand Rosie, I'm really sorry. - I knew that Jisoo only wanted the best for me and I knew that she didn't even consider the idea that I could fail, she simply saw something in me that I couldn't see.
