CHAPTER 1

"I love you Jan Dae"

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up startled from my dream. Tears fell of my cheeks. Seriously. I've been dreaming about this ever since and I always end up crying. Ugh. I hate this. When will this ever stop. Who the hell is Jan Dae and Na Ri?!

I looked up to my side to take a peek at my clock.

4:15 am. Great.

Since I cannot sleep again. Not after what happened, I just grabbed my phone and saw a message from my friend.

From: DAHYUN

Yaaah Chaeyoung-ah!! You never met up with us again. We miss you already. They already want to hang out with you. Give us a chance.

To: DAHYUN

Sorry Dahyun-ah!! I promise to hang out with you more often. I am just really fucked up with all of my deadlines and shit. I'll go with you guys later.

I don't know why I still texted Dahyun. It's not like she lives far away from me. She is literally just sleeping at the room next to mine. Together with my friend Tzuyu. My friends Jeongyeon and Jihyo also lives here. Practically, our squad lives together. Cool right?

I felt bad suddenly. There are just so many school craps that I completely forgot about my squad. Damn. Why is school so hard?

I went to the restroom and took a shower. I dried my hair and wore a comfy set of clothes. I opened up my TV and switched on the channels. I switched and switched and switched until I was about to turn it off when...

"I'm sorry. But I cannot protect myself. I love you"

And the girl killed herself with a sword.

"Oh shit!! AH!!! MY HEAD HURTS. SHIT." I turned the TV off and went to my medicine cabinet to get some pain killers.

Okay. That scene was actually just like my dream. Except that it was a boy and a girl. This is not normal. I really need myself to get checked.

To be honest, this happens a lot recently. Whenever I see something that is quite similar to my dream, my head always hurts. I don't know why. It's not like I have a disease or something. I think maybe because it's similar to my dream? I don't know. No one knows.

I started to think about my dream again. I've been dreaming about the same story for about a year already. My dream was quite unusual today tho. Coincidentally, my dreams are like episodes of dramas. They are always in order. It seems like there is a story. I don't remember all of my dreams after I wake up tho. I mean I remember them, but not as clear and detailed as it should be. If I remember it right, my dreams are about 2 women in the historical period confessing their love for each other. Mostly were sweet moments. I just don't get it why they died in my dream tonight. It's painful tho. It's weird but sometimes I think that maybe I'm Jan Dae. I don't know why. It just seems like it. I also feel anxious everytime I dream about them. It's like I miss someone and I just want to be with her and love her and take care of her and ki.... Oh. Did I just say 'her'? Oh well, I'm into girls anyways.

I looked at my clock and it was already 6:00 am. I better get ready.

I was about to go down when I decided to wake my friends up. I went to Jeongyeon and Jihyo unnie's room first. Knowing they are the eldest in this house, I can get back up when my usual wake-the-animals-up routine didn't work.

"Jihyo unnie, wake up already. It's 6:00 in the morning" I said while slightly poking her. She budged and opened her eyes slightly.

"Chaeyoung? Oh yeah. Goodmorning. Okay I'll get ready. Thanks for waking me up." I smiled at her and went to Jeongyeon unnie.

"Unnie, wake up already. I need you to wake up Dahyun and Tzuyu." I told her. She quickly got up and went to Dahyun and Tzuyu's room. Not long after, I heard banging and cursing.

"YAAAAHH. WAKE UP OR I'M GONNA BANG THIS FRYING PAN ON THE BOTH OF YOU" I heard Jeongyeon unnie said. Hahahaha. I can't just imagine those animals faces right now. I went to their room as well.

"JEONGYEON UNNIE WHY ARE YOU SO LOUD?! IT IS STILL 12 IN THE MORNING! FUCK IT." Dahyun said while her eyes are still closed.

"DAHYUN-AH IT'S ALREADY 6 IN THE MORNING. IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA WAKE UP, I'M GOING TO TELL EVERYONE THAT YOU'RE...AHSJSKSKSJHSGS" Jeongyeon unnie said when suddenly Dahyun covered her mouth.

"Yaah. I'm up. No need to threaten me . Geez." Dahyun said as she went to the washroom.

Woah. I almost didn't notice Dahyun to get off bed that quickly. I wonder what is it that Jengyeon unnie's gonna tell tho.

Meanwhile, after all the noise that Jeongyeon unnie made, Tzuyu is still not awake. I was about to wake her up when Jihyo unnie stopped me and told me to trust her. She started coughing and exercising her vocals. Oh my god. Bless you, Tzuyu.

"WAAAAAAAKKKKEEEEEEEEE UUUUUPPPPPPPP YODAAAAAAA!!!!" Jihyo unnie let out an ear-bleeding scream. Tzuyu fell off her bed. Damn that hurts so much. Jihyo unnie's voice is even louder than a speaker at its max and a microphone combined. I am so glad I am not in Tzuyu's position right now.

"Gosh unnie. Your voice is so loud. Can't you at least minimize your voice?" Tzuyu said.

"If you only woke up early, you wouldn't have to bleed your ears." I said.

Tzuyu just glared at us and started fixing her bed. Everyone started to do their own needs and after that, we all went down for breakfast.

Since none of us knows how to cook, we just made a sandwich individually, and ate it. And we already went for school.
