❝ say you'll remember me ❞

"With all due respect miss we no longer hold this color and like I said previously I can find you a similar color if you would like," I said trying to keep my fake smile on my face.

"But I want this color!" The angry customer said as she held her phone to my face.

Stay calm Seolhye, only five more minutes left. I took a deep breath and looked at the customer.

"Miss I understand that but we don't have it anymore. I get you're upset but being upset won't fix anything. If you would take a minute to listen you would know that there is a new color that is only one shade lighter than that one and even more popular among celebrities."

The woman's eyes widened only slightly and she brought her phone down.

"Oh really? What is the name?"

"Perfect Peach, I have a tube up here if you would like to purchase it," I held up the tube.

"Yes of course!" She pulled out her wallet as I rung her up and paid with her shiny credit card.

Lucky for me I get to close up my register and clock out. After about four moths of working at this high end boutique I realized everyone only cared about what was in and popular. So when something was discontinued and easy save was telling the customer there was something much better.

"Are you heading out Seol?" My coworker asked.

"Yeah I'm done for the night."

"Me and a few of the girls are heading out to hit up some clubs, wanna join?"

"No thank you, I have plans to hit up my bed, we have some serious sleeping to do."

"Ah you're so boring Seol!"

"Yes yes I know but sleep is priceless."

I grabbed my bag from my locker as the other girls giggled and laughed obnoxiously loud.

I gave them a small smile before slipping out the back doors. The cold air hit my face as I smiled. For a small moment I closed my eyes but opened them again and began walking to the main road to hail a cab.

All I can think about is my comfy bed. After today I could really use a good nights sleep.

To my luck I was able to get a cab very fast. I got in and told the older man my address. As he drove off I put in my earbuds and played a game on my phone because if I didn't I would probably fall asleep. Being my cautious self I have a fear of cabs. If I fell asleep I might wake up in a bathtub of ice with my kidneys missing. Yes I might be paranoid but better be safe then sorry.

I hummed along to my favorite songs when the cab came to a stop. I looked up and removed my earbuds. Oh home already. I paid the driver and said a small thanks before exiting.

I looked up at the tall fancy looking building and entered the lobby.

"Long day at work Miss Kwon?" I was greeted by the lobbyist.

"Yeah but I'm finally home," I said with a tired smile.

"Go get some rest you're too young to be sleep deprived," he smiled warmly.

I laughed and told him good night before going to the elevator and pressing my floor. I leaned against the all as I traveled up to the 6th floor. I could hear laughter outside the elevator door before it opened. I'm sure it was the new girl that moved in next to me. She was always so loud and rowdy.

"Seolhye! Hi neighbor!" She said as the door opened to reveal my face.

"Hi Yuju," I laid on my fake smile.

"Are you already turning in? The night has barely begun!"

"Yes I know but I have plans tomorrow so..."

"Awh we should go out together sometime!"

"Of course that would be so much fun." Not.

I stepped out of the elevator as she walked in.

"My limo is waiting so I have to run. I'll come by tomorrow?"

"Sure, have fun Yuju."

"Thank you Seolhye!"

As the doors closed I heaved a large sigh and made my way down the hall to my door. I entered in the passcode and heard the click of the lock.

"Hello my beautiful home!" I beamed as I walked in and shut the door. I quickly kicked off my shoes and jogged to my room to change. My shower could wait until tomorrow.

Once in my soft blue jammies I turned down the covers and hopped in bed.

"Glorious sleep please take over my sore and tired body and let me sleep and never wake again," I said as I fell back into my pile of pillows.

I turned to look out the large window out at the still busy city. As soon as my eyes closed a deep sleep over took my body. Sleep is my new best friend.
