Elly's POV
People find me unique for a particular reason. It is because my eyes have a very colorful shade. The right one has a light blue shade while the left one is purple. It may look amazing but how I see the world is different.

Ever since I was born, I can only see a grayscale of everything. It's just like watching a movie from the very first television.

During high school, both of my parents passed away. I didn't handle life properly after that since I went through a lot of tough situations so I was forced to drop out of school.

Recently, I'm living in an apartment along with my friend, Seungsik. I've always trusted him since childhood. He lends me a shoulder to cry on every time. He even told me that my tears were colorful as well.

Today is my parents' death anniversary that's why I felt gloomy. I left the place and headed to our old house. I didn't want to sell the house in the first place since I just don't want the memories to fade.

I didn't tell Seungsik my whereabouts since I knew he would worry about me. And he cared for me too much.

I unlocked the door as the chains dangled along with the handle. As I opened the door, I stared at the living room blankly as tears started falling. I looked at my palm looking at the gray shaded tears that I guess was supposed to look purple and blue.

I wiped away my tears as my mind reminisces moments playing in my head. I simply smile at them and made my way to my mom and dad's room.

I walked around while touching the cabinets and drawers covered in dust. I suddenly stop as my finger stopped at an odd silver box.

I opened the small box in curiosity. The sun glistens on the watch's metal covering. To my surprise, the watch was still working. I wore it and it was pretty large on my wrist. I looked at it closely as I spot something different. There was a small compass that looked out of place.

I shook my thoughts off and went to my room. The door creaked as I see spider webs everywhere. I opened the cabinets with things that I didn't expect that I had. I saw an envelope on my bed that made me wonder.

I plopped on the bed playfully and picked up the envelope. I was expecting a letter but there was just a small piece of folded paper. I unfolded it seeing the initials 'JSB'.

It was a bit weird and creepy since I tried remembering people with those initials. Maybe it wasn't initialed at all. It doesn't say where it came from. It wouldn't just pop out of nowhere.

I kept the piece of paper in my pocket and left the house. I hitched the chain again, leaving in deep sorrow.

I walked to a 24-hour convenience store not so far from where I was standing. I was a bit thirsty so I thought of buying something.

As I entered the store, there weren't that many people. I only saw the staff on the counter staring at his phone plainly. He looked really young though, probably 20 or something.

I ignored him and walked passed him as I tried finding my favorite soy milk. As I spotted it, I grabbed the glass bottle as I looked in my bag if I still had money. Luckily, I found some and headed to the counter.

I placed the bottle on the counter as I tapped my bills on my hand. The staff looks up at me and stood up immediately.

As he stood up, his phone topples the bottle off the counter and crashes into pieces. I just froze as I stared at the milk and glass shards on my sneakers. He bows at me and apologizes.
