They say, your birthday is one year closer to your death, but I think we achieved this without having to reach our birthday.
One shall be safe from another in one's shadow, but one shall not be safe forever.
This is what I asked them.
"What would you do if your crossing the street with one of us but a truck is coming in full speed, it's either they die alone or you both go down together trying to save them"
Silence was the loudest there, but even among this silence, hesitation wouldn't be a question.
would you make it out together?
That is for YOU to decide.
2:30 PM Seoul, South Korea
VIVIS POV
compared to my friends, I dint really face anything bad happen to me yet, and I had this constant feeling that this will be it. This was my thought all the way while exiting the airport.
I was walking around the gate to catch a taxi, but weirdly all were full. I take a glimpse to the right to see a car, my eyes widened as I tried to become a real life binoculars. I read the number plate, it was the car my mom used to drive in the past when she went for work.
I looked closer to see who was driving it, just to find out it was Dan and another lady around my age in the passenger seat. Weird? I brushed this off and jumped towards them and got in with my stuff. "HELOOO DAN" I said as we handshakes. "Welcome back dumbass" he chuckled
"Oh and who are you? Hah if U don't mind-" I said looking confused before I got cut off. "This is sophia, I found her uh a questionable way, anyways that's not the point, she's a good alie. ''ah..okay-" i said confused but went along with it anyway because he wouldnt get us caught.
the car moved and so we went on our way. ''um so- the dead bodies- where are they?" i said whispering so she wouldnt hear. ''in the trunk" he said without a care in the world. ''wait what-" my eyes widened as i turned around a 360 and stared into the back part of the car, my face filled with trauma.
"what if the cops check your trunk?" i said worridly. ''then their gonna join them" he chuckled. ''jeongmal michinnom-iya" (really a crazy guy) i said sighing as i leaned back into my seat. "mwolago haess-eo?" (what did u say?). ''nothing" i said.
sophia in the front was giggling. ''what are you guys talking about?" ''she said shes crazy" dan said. ''NO I DID NO-" i was cut of by saying ''she said shes crazy and dumb and that im smart"
''NO-" i screamed.
we were laughing all the way home.
VIVIS POV:
Me and dan decided to take sophia home with us because she had no place to stay.
in the car me and Sophia made some small talk to make things less awkward.
we reached our house. while waiting for someone to open the door, dan was practically praying that our father wasn’t home.
but unfortunately, the universe wasn’t in the mood to help us today.
the door slowly opened only for us to meet our fathers cold eyes.
all of a sudden past traumatic memories came flooding in as we stepped into our house, suddenly there it was, small and innocent little me, cowering in fear all because of his gaze.
Him alone used to make me feel useless, it was because of him that I used to cry myself to sleep, desperately wanting a good father-daughter relationship with him. But that never happened.
I forced myself to stand in front of him, who I once called ‘dad’. now that I think of it, he didn’t deserve that title. Not at all. I stood there for what felt like ages even though it was probably just a few seconds, waiting for him to say something.
