The idea that Sun would be a mailman with financial problems in real life came a little too easily for me lmao

Enjoy.

Life was bland, it was a fact now. Every day was the same down to the hours, minutes, and seconds. No matter what Lillie did, it was always like this. Absolutely nothing about her life was in any way interesting. She was starting to give up hope that anything good would ever happen.

Her mom had forced her to get a boring office job, she lived in a stale apartment complex, she drove a boring car, and she didn't have anything that was of any real value to her.

She had gotten a cat, hoping that it would liven things up a little, but eventually, her life fell back into that same old rhythm. Feed the cat, let it sleep, pet it, repeat. She was starting to doubt she would ever escape this terrible loop. That she was destined to rot in this apartment with her office job.

Lille sighed, finishing up some paperwork before filing it into her desk. That's how life was, no one at work spoke to her, and if they did, they looked and sounded just about as dead inside as she was.

Looking at her watch, it was four o'clock, so she clocked out and walked to her car. She felt like everything in her life was gray-scale, no color, no pop, just... the same. Looking out at the road as she drove home, it was almost as if all color had been drained away from her eyes.

Driving to and from work was routine too, she changed routes every now and then, but she had soon run out of new ways to go. So here she was, age twenty two, and she had gotten nothing out of life.

She doubted she ever would.

Pulling into her parking spot, Lillie got out of her car, heading to check the mail like she did everyday. She absentmindedly rummaged through her bag for her mail key, pulling it out and opening her mailbox.

She heard a small mewl, turning to see what the sound was, before a small cat leaped into her arms. Shocked, she grabbed onto it as it nuzzled into her.

"En? Where'd you go? C'mon I can't be late!" she heard someone shouting. She wondered if this cat was 'En'. Probably.

A man rounded the corner, and for a second, Lillie swore that a small burst of blue graced her vision again, but she realized she must be fantasizing. So a man lost his cat, nothing interesting about that anyway.

"There you are!" he stumbled forward, catching himself before he fell. Lillie giggled a little, it felt nice to laugh, although she almost felt bad for laughing at him.

Now that he was closer, Lillie began to notice various things. He had a large postal bag, so obviously he was the mailman, he had the mailman sort of attire too, now that she thought about it, but he also wore a black and blue hat sideways on his head. On anyone else it would've been funny, but it worked for him.

"Thank you for catching him, Miss. Usually I've already finished up with this apartments mail, but my cat decided to run off." he scratched the back of his head.

"You don't have to thank me, I didn't really do anything. He jumped into my arms on his own." she handed the man his cat, and he placed it on his shoulder, where it perched nicely.

"That's weird. Guess he likes you!" he beamed. Lillie almost wanted to smile with him, but she knew that after this, her life would follow that same routine again, so what was the point.

"This is your mailbox, right?" he asked pointing to her open mailbox. She nodded, and he began sifting through his carrier bag, pulling out some mail.
