In a city secluded from the world , all Yi Su and all the other citizens of the city were told is that they are being saved from all the world and its dangers. But Yi Su knows that this is not the case. Her and her friend Ji Su seem to be the only o...
"Why is Yi Eun unnie in hospital for a month?" Ji Su asked.
"Huh?" I hadn't noticed the pile of letters at my feet. I grabbed the one in Ji Su's hand and I skimmed the text whilst reading it.
"What is this? First I find out that I have a sister but god punishes me once again by making my sister go hospital for a month." I throw my hands up in anger then I ruffle my hair in frustration.
"Just see what hospital it is from." Ji Su bluntly stated whilst grabbing the letter from me again.
"Seoul Intensive Care National Hospital. That's a mouthful to say. It sounds expensive!" Ji Su said as I snatched the letter from her once again. I quickly took my phone out of my pocket. I searched up the location and noted the address.
"Come we are going there now." I dragged Ji Su out of the house and shut the door softly behind me.
"Do you know the way?"
"No." I bluntly stated.

Ji Su panicked when I told her that I didn't know the way but then I told her that if we took the bus the journey would take a day so I had called a taxi to pick us up. We got in the taxi and sat in the back.
"How long's the journey?" I asked out of curiosity.
"It will take about 12 hours to get there so I suggest y'all get comfortable back there. This is one long journey up ahead of us." the driver said flashing us a grin with a few teeth missing through the rear view mirror. All the tenseness in my body vanishes as I lean back in my seat. I lean my head to the side and rest it on Ji Su's shoulder. The rumble of the taxi vibrated my body all the way through. Before I knew it I fell asleep in my seat.

"Wake up Yi Su!" Ji Su slapped my face. We both struggle waking up so we end up slapping each other's face. It stung on my skin but I was used to it. It was a daily routine during my school days. I looked about me. We were in Seoul. I thanked the driver and paid him. I turned to look at the massive building behind me. I grabbed Ji Su's hand and we walked up the gigantic stairs leading to the double doors. I entered the building and walked up to the receptionist.
"Um excuse me..." I waited but no response came. I cleared my throat loudly.
"Excuse me." A woman about my age popped around a paper she was holding in front of her face.
"Yes how may I help you?"
"Can you tell us the room number of Yi Eun? What happened to her?" Ji Su asked. The woman at the desk typed some things into her computer and turned to face us.
"Yi Eun is getting discharged tommorow. She is no longer in a room but in the public wing. You can meet her there. It is the first left down that corridor." she said pointing to a corridor on our left. We thanked her and ran in. A lot of eyes were on me and Ji Su as we walked into the public wing. Lots of beds were there with sick patients on them. We searched each face for one similar to mine. A hand grabbed my arm from behind. I turned around and saw a young girl around nine years old.
"Are you better now unnie? Like I promised I visited you everyday when you were in ICU." the girl said in her high-pitched voice.
"Um yeah I'm better now." I wanted to ask her where I could find Yi Eun unnie but I didn't know how to ask if she saw someone who looks exactly like me.
"Excuse me young girl. Have you seen someone in this wing who looks like my friend here? We are looking for someone named Yi Eun." Ji Su asked the girl. The girl's eyes widened.
"So you aren't Yi Eun unnie?" she asked me. I shook my head.
"Oh. Well if you are her sister or something I know where you can find her. Follow me." The little girl grabbed my arm and led me down the corridor. As the girl's arm came up her sleeves inched down and I could see it there clearly on her arm. Lots and lots of burn marks and bruises. The girl caught my stare and bluntly said "My mum did that." She led me through a series of corridors. The girl was taking me out of the public wing. I pulled back unsure of whether I should trust this girl.
"Trust me. Unnie is this way." She grabbed my arm and kept on leading me somewhere. My surroundings were changing too. The walls were becoming more colourful and had cartoon pictures on them. The girl suddenly took a sharp right into a room.
I looked up ahead. This was a children's ward. All the children in the room were around a bed at the back of the room. They were all laughing and having fun. I looked at the sign above the door. The Final Ward. I read about this ward before. It is the ward all the kids go to when they are living their last days and definitely will not survive long. Anyone can visit them but no one tends to because they don't want to catch any of the illnesses these children have.
"There she is!" The girl let go off my hand and ran through the crowd of children to the middle where the bed was. I walked closer so I can see who was there. Then I saw her. She looked just like me but she had clown make up on and was playing with the bald girl next to her. All the children enjoyed her presence. My look-alike ruffled the hair of the girl who led me here. All the children here were on their last days and my unnie was making them feel happy and loved. I'm so proud of her. The girl whispered something into unnie's ear and pointed at me.
"Unnie..." I whispered. Yi Eun unnie looked at me not believing a word the girl had said. When her eyes fell on me her eyes widened and a tear rolled down her cheek.
Anyway recently I have been really bored and I have been making collages. Here is one of BTS and Twice.
