BORAM'S POV
It's already getting dark and I'm still wandering here on the streets.
I wasn't lost.
I wasn't homeless either.
I just want to walk and enjoy the silence in this place before I go home.
It's not that it's noisy at home.
It's just that the kind of silence there is different.
Why I say it's different?
...you'll know.
I'm just walking here on the sidewalk.
Just me and my drawing book for few more minutes.
Until suddenly I heard someone running from behind.
**sigh**
I guess the silence already ends.
"Hey kid. You're lost again?" She ask when she catch up to me.
If you think that I know this girl well,...
I don't.
It's just that one day when I was walking here same time as today like I always do, this girl came to me.
And she actually thinks that I'm a lost kid.
Heol.
I never talk to her since that day but here she is pretending that we were close friends.
We don't even know each other's name.
Well, I do remember that she introduces herself before but I wasn't actually paying attention so I don't know her name and since I never talk to her, she doesn't know mine too.
"You love to walk here during this time. Aren't your parents worried? Why do they let you wander in here alone? It's not good for a kid like you." She said while she's annoyingly chewing her gum.
My cousin Eunjung would surely run away from this girl.
Do you wanna know why?
You'll know why when you meet her.
Now back to this girl.
Who the hell is she calling a kid?
I wonder if she really thinks that I'm a kid or she's just teasing me for no reason.
I decided to leave her and headed to my car and leave her like I always do.
.......
"Good evening Miss Boram dinner is ready" Ahjumma greeted me when I arrive at home.
"Mom and Dad?" I ask.
"They're not yet home Miss" She said.
What do you expect Jeon Boram?
"Pack the foods and bring it to your family Ahjumma. I'm not hungry." I said and headed straight to my room.
When Ahjumma left to go home the surrounding became even quieter.
This huge house is filled with silence.
A deafening lonely silence.
I do love silence but at the same time I hate it too.
It's hard to explain it but that's just how I feel it.
I just get my sketchpad and start drawing.
