" you just get my heart pump, pumping. everytime that you're here around me, music flows again, yeah. " ⊹˚₊
Hannah Marsh, also known as Mo Hayoung, is a girl with a strong adoration for art. She tranfers to a Korean school in the countryside, in con...
HANNAH FOLDED HER clothes, sorting them in order by category. She seperated them into piles; Shirts, sweatshirts, bottoms, underwear etc. etc.
Her window was open and a light breeze floated through her room. Hannah sighed and straightened her back, taking a look around her almost empty room and bare walls. God, was she going to miss Australia.
Her older sister, Danielle, knocked on her door, which was already open, and poked her head into her bedroom, "You almost done? Mom and dad and Olivia are waiting downstairs." She walks into her sisters bedroom and takes a deep breath.
"It feels strange seeing our house so bare." She said quietly as she looked around, then walked towards Hannah and helped her put some of her stuff into her suitcase. "You know... As much as i missed being in South Korea, i'm really going to miss Australia. It was our home for years." She looked at her sister with sad eyes, "What about you? How do you feel, Hannah?"
Hannah pursed her lips as she packed her art supplies away neatly into her suitcase. "I'll probably cry when we get to Korea." She smiles and chuckles as her sister playfully pushes her by the arm. After a small silence, Hannah starts speaking again, "I was only five when we moved back to Australia, and had only lived in South Korea for three years... I barely remember anything. If not anything at all. Here, in Newcastle, is my home. I already miss it, and i'm still here."
Danielle noticed her sisters' eyes water as her head hung low. She quickly wrapped her arms around her and hugged her. Her bottom lip jutted out, "Hannah... We understand, you know. Australia is our home, too. Dad's gotten a job in South Korea and there's nothing we can do about it. Maybe when we get there, it'll feel like home again. Maybe we'll go, and we'll never want to leave. This house will always hold a special place in our hearts, but new memories are always exciting!" She says with a bright smile.
Hannah can't help just smile and chuckle at her, "You always know what to say, Dani. I don't know how you do it. You're my favourite vitamin D."
Danielle pouts in adoration, "Awwh!" She playfully hits her sister in the arm as she continues on with her bashfulness. Always dramatic, she is. But in the positive and happy way. Just what everyone needs on a daily basis; Like vitamin D. I guess you could say vitamin Dani... Na? ...Okay then!
Eventually, family of five set off to South Korea. They arrived at the airport, and then left the airport. When they landed in South Korea, Hannah felt like she was dead. The whole flight to South Korea, she didn't get anything done. Her mind was foggy and humid. No thoughts came in. It was like a room filled with fire that had no windows.
They sat in the Incheon Airport as they waited for their bus to arrive. Hannah leaned back in her chair and stared at her empty sketch book in silence. Her left hand, which held her pencil, twitched and fiddled. She groaned and held back the urge to snap the innocent pencil in her hands.
Danielle looked over to her sister, who sat there in dispair, "Hannah... You alright?" She hesitantly took the girls' pencil from her hands to stop her from breaking it. She put the pencil away in Hannah's pencilcase, that she took with her everywhere.
Hannah closed her eyes and rested her head against the back of the airport chair (yes, she had bent back that far just to reach it. Just kidding, she only tipped her head back, hehe). She sighed as she shook her head, "Usually ideas just flow... Like music, as i place my pencil on the paper. But i just can't." She groans again, "What's wrong with me?"
Danielle looks at her with sympathy, also tidying her sketch book away and out of sight. "Maybe you just need to get inspired again. An airport isn't exactly the most cozy place ever... Especially when you're missing the place that you've just left. Try again whenever you feel like it. Don't force yourself, 'kay?"
Seeing one of Danielle's famous bright smiles, she could'nt help but smile back. "Okay." She said just as their bus arrived.
As Hannah sat with her head against the window, she stared out of the window. She hoped that somehow this bus would be magical and just teleport them back to Australia. But as she looked at the scenery of this small town in South Korea, she realised that it was very... Fresh? Calm? Perhaps both were the right words to describe it.
She closed her eyes, i'll need to get used to this one way or another. What else can i do except accept reality?
