Giriboy 05

"...I'm thinking of you, even in the littlest things, because of all the crazy things that happened

It feels empty now..."

Giriboy:

These past few months I spent with Areum I honestly believed that life was good. And it was good for a while, I was in love. I loved the girl who I have been in love with since we met. I hold her in my arms, and you know what? She holds me back too...it's like she's slowly starting to accept the love she denied herself all this time.

She watches me while I write lyrics, if only she knew all my songs are turning into stories of her, she thinks about us when she watches me, and that's when I become afraid of losing her, because the way she looks then it's as if she too thinks that this might end up being all one huge dream.

But even in my dreams I love her.

She can't possibly begin to understand how much I love her.

So with everyday that we're given I try my best to show her. When I hold her at night, or when we shower together and I gently stroke her skin, sometimes I imagine the bruises on her skin, the marks I expect there but are now gone and instead I place kisses in their place.

But she's afraid, afraid of the men out there, she trembles when we go for walks outside, her body shakes and she holds my hand tight and I start to lose it then, I want to beat every single guy that hurt her, I want to hurt them just how they tormented her with their words and their money and their fists...but I don't because I'm not strong enough yet.

But once I release the music I've been writing I'll do everything in the world to show her that my love for her will be just like my music, eternal.

Areum:

The clock keeps ticking, it's about time for the disaster to hit. For the dream to end. I keep looking at the clock waiting for it to happen, because it always happens around this time. When life has just been too good to you, so your just waiting on that one bad thing.

But I always find myself wrapped in his arms, reciting lyrics for me to fall asleep to. And when I wake up and he's still there I cry, cry while he sleeps and I brush the strands of hair from his face because I know that at any day it's going to end.

And before he can catch me crying I push myself off the bed and brush the tears from my eyes and head elsewhere in the apartment.

Later that day Giriboy gets ready to head to the studio and takes me with him for the first time. He says he wants to show me what he's been working on and I honestly can't wait to hear a piece.

Once we get there the studio that was full of his friends it suddenly grows silent when I walk in and there eyes land on me. Giriboy doesn't seem to notice and instead greets them one by one and introduces me, and then he heads on the other side.

Shutting the door he steps into the recording room, and starts practicing some vocals.

"Ya." A man with a deep voice says, I follow the sound of his voice and turn to look at him. "So you're the whore whose got him all fucked up." And my eyes widen, I can feel the fear spread through me like wildfire because standing there in front of me among Giri's friends is the man who hurt me the most...
