====================

"On days where thin rain falls like today
I remember your shadow
Our memories that I secretly put in the drawer
I take them out and reminisce again by myself."
- If You, Big Bang

FAIRY TALES. Those are the stories where people receive their happily ever afters. When I was a child, I used to love to imagine myself as a damsel in distress, a princess waiting for her Prince Charming. I'd spend hours drawing different Disney characters while daydreaming about my own fairy tale story with my own Prince Charming. My dad always gave me cards with fairy tale quotes on them and I loved them to death. I had kept everything in a steel box, thinking to open them up to show my future daughter one day. To me, it's kind of like a time capsule.

Yet in retrospect, I had lost everything. There was no fairy tale with my own happily ever after, there was no Prince Charming. I had lost myself.

But with everything I lost, I will make them mine again.

One month has passed. One month has passed since I left everything behind. My past, my pain, everything that has been chaining me back.

I thought time could heal me, make me forget about everything has happened. I hoped with all of what have left of myself that maybe one day, the pain in my heart would slowly erode away.

How could I run away when the very reminder of everything was on my body?

I see the scars from the near death fall at my former school's camping trip every day and night. A long scar lined my upper arm and smaller ones scattered across my back. My right leg had a long thin scar at the thigh. These were marks that were forever there to remind me of everything.

Even if the memories still haunt me, I remind myself that memories will fade, and so will the pain it brings.

"Good morning, Chae Chae. How do I look today? I need to look good for Baekhyun," Hara greeted me as she spotted me coming out of my apartment that I shared with Jungkook. She always past by to walk with me on the way to school since Jungkook usually leaves early for basketball practice.

I tried to smile for her. She reminded me of Mina, no matter how much I tried not to think of it. It had been really difficult to befriend her and tell her my story. Her persistence to break down the wall I built around myself made her a new constant in my life. I keep repeating to myself that Kim Hara was not Choi Mina, that Hara wouldn't leave me the same way Mina did, no matter what the reason is.

Hara looped her arm around mine and started walking towards school. "You still didn't answer me."

I rolled my eyes. That girl was obsessed with the school's music band lead singer, Byul Baekhyun. "You look amazing, Hara. I'm sure he'll notice you today."
