the start

Hwang SeonAh was not your average typical girl. She didn't have a talent like many people did. Nor was she exceptional at something. Whether it be fishing or social 'interactive' skills. She was average in the sense of skills, however unusual compared to the rest of human race as everyone has a skill. Perhaps she hasn't discovered it. Nonetheless it didn't bother her that she was talentless, she just kept swimming and maybe she will stumble across her talent.

It was a misty morning in the season of summer, which was uncommon, yet no one bothers to question what we are given. Even if we did, who do we complain to? Its these complex thoughts that Hwang SeonAh usually thinks of in normal situations, while on the other hand a normal human would think these thoughts in the shower or during a poop-ing session. 

Maybe SeonAh is weirder than your normal person.

SeonAh scrambled out of bed and did all of her duties in order for school. She picked up a brown banana and kimbap and dashed out for school. If she ran in the alleyways she would reach school just in time. 

In the duration of SeonAh's walk to school, she stumbled across an old man who was sleeping on a park bench nearby a convenience store. A feeling of empathy filled her mind as she walked passed him, unable to do anything while being so close. SeonAh took three steps, yet those three steps were filled with guilt as her conscience was yelling to give her kimbap to the man.

SeonAh stopped in her tracks and pulled out the kimbap from her bag. She ripped the tinfoil to expose the tip of the long kimbap and crouched down to the old man.

"Ahjusshi..." SeonAh nudged the man lightly to wake him up. Up close he looked even worse; his face was tanned from the exposure of sunlight and was filled with dirt smudges all over his face. His teeth was yellow and his eyes wore the look of tiredness.

"here, take this warm kimbap!" SeonAh took the old man's hand and placed the kimbap on his palm. She realized that he would probably also be thirsty, so she grabbed a plastic water bottle from her bag and gave it to him. 

The old man looked in surprise but was warmed by her act of kindness. He flashed her an old worn out smile, and thanked her. SeonAh bowed in response and smiled.

"Ahjusshi, eat well! I have to go now," SeonAh waved goodbye as she dashed away to school. 

Soon after SeonAh disappeared into her school, the old man stood up and revealed that in fact, he wore a suit. He had the kimbap in his hand, and smiled while nodding. He found the necessary key to his wish.
