A dream, a dream is a series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person's mind during sleep. A dream is also an aspiration or ambition that is cherished... "My dad told me to dream big, dream like there's no tomorrow". Restart is my dream, I'm bravely going out into the world alone but I'm not scared and I'm going to reset my life to one that I want to keep. 




"Hello, is this the agency that is renting the room in Gangnam?" I asked walking into the rental agency. 

"Yes come in" I heard an old lady chirp from afar.

"Is the Gangman room still available, the one with no security deposit and really low rental price?" 

"Yes, yes" the repetition of 'yes' made my heart ease up a bit, the nervous tension of the room already being taken has left my body.  

"Come to XXXXXX Gangnam, at 3 pm today and ill show you around the room" 

"DEAL!" I excitedly exclaim 

I still had a lot of time to kill before I had to go to the address, I kept looking down at the address and it felt very familiar the arrangement of the number and letter gave me a creeping suspicion. Then it hit me, it was a similar address to the one of Ong, actually, it was not too far from the bus stop.

In the mean time I had to submit resumes to companies so I could start earning a living, I went to 'express employment' which was a new scheme implemented by the government to allow people with experience to get jobs quickly and efficiently to minimise the time a person in the society is being useless and not earning money. 

I saw a large list of company names that were hiring people with experience in advertising which was pretty daunting. In the old company, I was apart of the advertisement team. I applied to all the companies that were hiring and after a few nervous minutes, I got a call back for an interview for practically all the places I applied for. I'm starting to turn my life in my favour and I'm slowly getting my life back on track. 

I was scrolling through the callback messages when one caught my eyes. It was the same company that Daniel work for, this suddenly triggered a random thought. How is he doing? I decided to book an interview with Daniels company, but while I was reading their message a specific sentence angered me. 


"Please wear formal  attire."

Tsk. I sighed out loud, formal attire my ass.

I had something in mind that I was going to wear, I decided to wear a wedding dress as a symbolic contribution to my father's final goodbye. My father from heaven is going to see me in a wedding dress. A quick stop at the thrift shop and I picked up a dress that was the most ball gown. I smiled gently looking at the price and quality of the wedding dress. 

I was taking the wedding dress back home when I saw a familiar figure outside my door, a figure that I wished I would never see again. 

"What are you doing here," I said as coldly as possible, I could feel his nervous aura but I couldn't care less. I made slow steps towards the door and towards my ex-boyfriend my mistake. My expression started to dim as I chucked the dress over my shoulders. 

"Move" 

I slammed the door open making my ex-stumble backwards a few steps. 

"You're still mad? how immature" he spat like venom
