(🎎)

It was a gloomy day, the clouds seemed to be touching the earth and the drizzle didn't help much. Hana walked like a zombie down the street after her finals; she was starting her career.

She came to her apartment letting out a sigh. She had always been a cleaning maniac, but now her bedroom was a mess. She let herself fall into the rumpled sheets and for a few seconds, she closed her eyes.

She stood up to go prepare the food they would be eating in a few hours. She rarely prepared Qian Grandma's soup, but it was a special occasion.

(....)

She adjusted her dress with her hands and her black hair to take a seat in the chair. She was nervous, her parents came from far away to see her. The bell rang and Hana ran to the door.

"Oh... It's just you." Said to Sicheng while frowning at the sight of him with a red box.

"Yeah, just me" Sicheng muttered to pass with the box that had a bow "Still not arriving?" questioned accommodating the box on the sofa, Hana was curious to know what the box was but she only resigned herself to sit on the sofa chair.

"No."

Sicheng sighed, he really hoped that Mr. and Mrs. Qian came to see Hana. After they separated they rarely came to see their children. Kun only came to visit his sister twice a year.  Mr. and Mrs. Qian felt dishonored by Hana, their family was full of doctors and other doctorates. But Hana was the first Qian to choose graphic design.

"How's Seungi?" She questioned while pouring blackberry tea into the small cups.

"She had to take care of her nephews tonight, otherwise she would be here." He said as he blushed. Seungi was Sicheng's girlfriend. She was so pretty, she had light brown hair to the waist, honey eyes and flushed cheeks, she was beautiful.

It was midnight and her parents didn't arrive for dinner. She sighed heavily, somehow she wanted to think that her parents would come to see her, but she was wrong. Sicheng patted his friend trying to comfort her.

"Well, I knew they wouldn't come." Hana said with melancholy, as she served some soup in her bowl.

"At least you didn't hear your father say how your cousin who studies for cardiology is better than you." Sicheng was right, her parents wouldn't stop talking about her cousin or her brother, nothing interesting to her "I have a gift for you!" exclaimed her friend.

The youngest stood up and took the red wine box with a golden bow to put it on the table. The brunette felt a chill when she read: Boydoll.

"Will you open it?" Questioned her best friend while trying to encourage her.

Hana observed the box, it was about a meter long, the box had a kind of patch that took off to open it carefully, a case came inside the box, with great care opened the case showing a doll.

Not any doll, this one had white skin, jet black hair, refined nose, and its eyes were closed, it was wearing a navy blue suit and white shirt.

"What the heck?" Said her best friend when she saw the red box with golden details  "This is creepy, Sicheng."

"It's a doll, It's very cute." The dark-haired smiled, but when he looked at his best friend he stopped smiling.

"Yeah right, a doll that looks like a human!" She exclaimed raising her hands "It's so beautiful!" She replied sarcastically.

"Okay, no, It's not a doll." Said Sicheng trying to fool the girl who was still scared to death "I'm sorry, there are no changes or refunds." he said while shrugged.

"It measures 60 centimeters!" Hummed Hana to run away.

(....)

Hana was scared to death with that thing in the living room, she didn't want to leave her room. She was still awake, the clock read 2:39 in the morning. She left her laptop and went for a glass of milk to sleep.

She walked to the fridge and took the milk, she approached the table with the creeps, the doll was there without taking it out of the case. She pulled out a chair to look closer.

What was Sicheng thinking to buy her that thing? She would have appreciated it if the gift were clothes or a cat. She stretched out her right hand to touch the doll. As soon as her hand touched the arm of the product, it opened its eyes.

These were gray with little green flashes, everything in it was so human that it was scary. Hana fell from the chair and ran to her bedroom.

"Hana, what's going on?" Questioned the sleepy voice of her best friend.

"T-the doll opened his eyes, WinWin, it opened its eyes." Said in a whisper while she looked out the hall. She should stop seeing so many horror movies.

"Yeah, Hana I already told you that there are no returns." Whispered Sicheng "I thought you would like it, I don't know what I was thinking but tomorrow you can put it on sale in second-hand things." He coughed to then throw out a yum yum "See you tomorrow Hannie."

"Don't you dar-" Her friend hung her up before she could say something else. Now, how to sleep with the doll in the living? the brunette began to turn on the apartment's lights.

She connected her phone to the connection that was in the living. She would stay up all night if it was necessary, a lightning illuminated part of the room and soon the lights went out.

"Why is everything dark? I can't see" A voice could be heard behind Hana causing her to scream.

The brunette took her cell phone and bag to run to the door and leave her apartment. She would not stay at home with the doll.

"Hana?" Doyoung's sleepy voice was heard on the line "It's 3:30 am, did you know that normal people are asleep at this time?"

"Make me some space in your bed!" She exclaimed while taking a taxi.

"All right."

Tomorrow she would put the doll for sale, but that sweet voice was still rumbling in her head.
