278 days. That's how long I've been stuck in this place. It's my birthday today. I wonder what the other exo members are doing. I wonder if sm is still looking for me. I wonder what the fans are thinking now. I think about my family and I find it hard to breathe. How long will I be here? Why can't I die already? Is there still hope? Should I still hope?

Some days I barely sleep because I'm not tired at all. I'm still not used to sitting doing nothing all day. Other days I sleep 20 hours straight. Doing nothing tires me. But I dare not sleep too much in case I might lose track of time. Maybe I already have. Maybe my birthday was yesterday or the day before that. 

Tonight I didn't go to sleep I'm just thinking about all the things I've achieved in my life. I don't believe anything more will really happen in my life anymore. 

Suddenly I hear footsteps. They are really small, light, careful steps but my senses became way more sensitive lately.

I stand up facing whatever will come, but as I see the long brown hair and white face I relax. It's Hwa Yeon. When did I become so comfortable around her?

The first thing I notice is that she doesn't close the door behind her. She just tip toes over to me in her socks and lightly touches my arm pulling me towards her and before I could realize what is happening I am outside the door.

The long stairs suddenly make me dizzy and I make too much noise so she has to hush me. My eyes are opened wide but I'm following her without a second thought. She could be taking me anywhere but I suddenly trust her. Without us realizing our fingers intertwined and her small hand is pulling my weak body outside. Outside...

We are in the garden.

She starts running still in her socks, mud splashing around her and stands behind a tree. I start shivering and feel like I've never been so cold even though I've obviously been outside on colder days. But feeling cold outside in the fresh air suddenly seems so absurd and dream like. Maybe this is a dream. Either way, somehow this shivering through my whole body and the stones in the ground cutting my feet  and the wind blowing my grown hair in my eyes and mouth suddenly feels like the best thing ever.

"It's raining" Hwa Yeon says smiling.

I look up and I have to blink because a rain drops in my eye. I look on my hands that start to become wet from the rain drops that start falling more and more frequently. 

"It's raining!" she repeats.

I look at her and I laugh. I can't believe I'm so happy feeling rain on my skin. It seems like my pains and fears are being washed down by the rain.

"Happy birthday!" Hwa Yeon says.

Weirdly, at the moment I feel like this is the best birthday she could give me.

I haven't laughed in 278 days.

I'm going to start writing a new story soon, it won't really be a fanfiction it would be about a girl becoming a kpop idol. What do you think? Should I write it? Leave your thoughts in the comments. :)
