Areum's P.O.V

5 days.

It's been 5 days since I moved to this small apartment in Jeju island.It wasn't so big but not too small as well.It was just perfect for one person to live in.The landlord of this house is an old ajjhuma in her late 60s.She is really kind and loves me like her own granddaughter.Because of her I could easily adapt myself here.I told her about my situation and she promised me not to tell anyone.Instead she took great care of me.The place I live in is not so populated so it is quite safe.

I still miss my life back in Seoul.I still miss them.I still miss him.

"So you'll be going to the dance school tomorrow?" Ajhumma asked as she passed me a bowl of rice.

"Nae.I'll be going tomorrow for my interview and I'll start working in a few days.I am planning to work there as a dance teacher." I smiled.

Just the thought of dancing was so exciting for me.Dancing was not just my job but my passion as well.God knows how happy and thankful I am to pd-nim for finding me a job as a dance teacher.The school was just few meters away from my apartment and I'll start my job after a few days so I think it will be okay.

"Just have fun,okay?If there is any problem then tell me." she reassuringly smiled at me as I nodded.

After eating dinner together with ajjhumma and ajjhussi I walked back to my apartment.I took a quick shower then changed into my comfortable pajamas.I decided to sleep early so I jumped on my bed.I was planning to sleep but I couldn't.Every time I laid on bed thousands of memories rushed through my mind and I ended up crying to sleep.I miss him.

I have been going to the hospital regularly.The doctor said my condition was somewhere in the middle.She said I wasn't getting any better but it wasn't getting worse either.That's why I decided to dance again.It was the last option for me to improve my health.I asked pd-nim for his help and he gladly accepted it.

I don't even know what's happening in Seoul right now as I haven't checked my phone since I moved here.I was afraid of getting more hate.God knows how thankful I am to Minjae for helping me.He even made arrangement for my living and expenses for now.However I am planning to pay him after I getting my pay.So for now only Minjae and pd-nim knows about my location.

"Aish!I need to sleep." I muttered as I took some sleeping pills.

These days I need to take sleeping pills as I can't sleep at night.After taking those pills I quickly fell in deep slumber.


"Good luck!" ajjhumma shouted from her door.

"Thank you ajjhumma!" I waved at her as I walked outside.

I enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Jeju as I walked to the school.I was so engrossed in watching the views that I didn't even realized that I already reached the place.Wow!It was bigger than I expected.I checked the place and after confirming I walked inside.

"Annyeonhaseyo!Actually I am here to talk with Mr Kim.Is he present at the moment?" I kindly asked the receptionist.

"May I know your name?" she asked.

"Lee Byul." I replied.This is the name I am supposed to use for a while.

"Please wait here for a moment.I'll call him." she softly smiled.

I nodded as I sat at one of those chairs.There were a lot of people there so I wore my mask and cap.I didn't knew this place existed in Jeju.

"Are you Lee Byul?" finally a middle aged man asked me after a few minutes of waiting.
