Fatal Love p.j.m

t w e n t y t w o

It's been a few days since I returned home. My dad slapped me a few times for being gone, he wasn't completely wasted so fortunately it was just a few slaps then he left the house not saying a word.

I don't mind that he was gone. It was peacefull and quiet for once, I could hear every little creak the house made, which was something I had never noticed before.

Me and Jimin haven't really talked about what happened a few days ago, we were still friends if that's what you would call this weird ass relationship.

I layed in my bed, no headphones, no music, nothing but silence. I liked the peace I could hear the small rain drops lightly hitting the window pain. The sound was soothing. My window was slightly open so that I could feel a nice cool breeze and I could smell the fresh air. When it rains I always loved the smell, I don't know why, it was actually weird, I had no idea why I loved the smell I just did.

I stayed in bed listening to the rain, I soon heard the gentle drops on the window slowly started to sound like small rocks were hitting the pane. Hail started to hit the window. I quickly rise to my feet and close the window, the sound of the hail was getting louder as it hit not just the window but I could hear it pouring on the roof. I went downstairs and turned on the TV watching the news and wondering when the weather was going to clear up. Soon the TV went off and so did all the lights.

Shit, powers out.

I rise and luckily it was still light out and the clouds weren't blocking all the sun light so there was a soft grey light still coming from all the windows. I looked through the window to see that all the houses also had the no power. I heard my phone ring from a text. I grab it off the table to see a message from Jinny.

Omg, this is the most rain we've gotten in a while!-Jinny

Yeah, it's coming down really hard. When do you think it will clear up?  -Mirae

Idk, stay safe lol I heard there's going to be a small flood, nothing that could wreck your house but it might cause some leaking. -Jinny

Thanks ;) -Mirae

I walk upstairs to check for any leaks and am releived to not be able to find any. I heard a harsh knock on the door wich caused me to jump. I walk downstairs to hear the person continuously pounding on the door.
I opened the door cautiously to find my dad wasted, soaking wet. I quickly move to the side so he can walk in. He just ignored me and walked into his room and locked the door behind him. I realised that today was a bad day for this "flood" to hit. It was supposed to be the first day.

Should I still go? Or should I just go the next time?

I know I shouldn't miss this cause of some rain but then again the streets were filled with water, it was like a mini river. I decided to go, it was just water and this was important. I sigh and look though my closet, I was able to find a decent sized green umbrella. There was no thunder or lightning so it was pretty safe unless you hated getting your feet wet. I hesitantly put my hand on the cold metal door knob. I slowly turned it and walked outside quickly taking my umbrella out so I could prevent myself from getting soaked from the rain. The hail was still there just not nearly as bad as before. Trying to avoid any puddles I started to walk along the rode to the center of the town.

I walked through the dark tinted glass doors. I walked up to the lady at the counter and told her my name. She wrote something down on a notebook and then I saw her cross of my name. She pointed to the seats down the hall.

I walked over there slowly looking around. There was a lot of children here or old people. I passed by a room to see a man and a young girl, the girl was maybe 7 at the oldest. She had no hair and had something that looked like a wire in her left ear, my heart ached at such site, but she looked...happy. She was playing with a small toy truck, and -who I'm guessing was the dad- was sitting there playing with her, it was cute, it made me almost jealous. For my dad never played with me when I was young, just ignored me or said he was busy with work and mom was the one who always ended up playing with me. Even when my mom was alive me and my dad weren't ever close.

I continued waking till I found 5 small chairs outside of a door that matched the description the women gave me. I sit in the one furthest away from people, in the corner. I look around to see one other person come in and sit a few seats away from me looking down and fiddling with their fingers. They looked just as nervous as me.

"Lee Mirae." A women called holding the door open. I slowly got up and walked towards her. She smiled at me.

"Annyeong." She says expecting me to respond. I simply just wave my hand at her while looking down at the floor.

"Come on in." She says as she opens the door wider and moves to the side. I hesitantly walk in and see her close the door behind me.
