"Get out!" The man I once called Dad yells. "Get the fuck out of my house fag," he yells again. The tears that were building up in my eyes start to fall. No longer can I stop the loud sobs from coming out of my throat.

The man just stands there, watching the life I once had come crashing down into a pile of rubbish. I start to cry louder when he turns away, my hands reaching out to beg for forgiveness. Not once does he look back at his son, his only son, to comfort him or say that he was just messing with him. 

"D-dad p-p-please," I cry out to him. He stops walking for a moment, but for only a second, to say 'be out of this house by tomorrow morning'. I start crying so hard it hurts to stand. My legs give out from underneath me and I fall to the floor, curling up into a ball. I lay there for what seems like hours crying my heart out.

~~~

When I could not cry any more tears, I slowly sit up. I rub my eyes and wipe my nose. I stand up and listen for any movement around the house only to find that there wasn't any. Happy that either one of my parents were in the house, I walk up the stairs and into my room, well what was once my room. I grab my school bag that has my computer and anything else I needed for school, I grab my duffle bag and pack clothes that would last me a couple of weeks, lastly I grab a messenger bag to put all my toiletries in.

I look around the room I once called mine to see if I forgot something. I spot my king-sized blanket and pick it up. I open up my messenger bag and cram it in. I smile sadly thinking of all the great memories I had made in this room, in this house and walk out.

As the cars pass by, my hair blows around my face. I have been walking for almost an hour and the sky was pitch black. I did not want to stay in my town, Busan, so I decided the best place to live and actually find work was Seoul. The problem with that was I forgot my car, so I had to turn back and walk for another hour. To my luck, my parents weren't home yet and I was able to get my keys and leave with my car.

~~~

Entering the city, I was struck with awe. My parents never traveled and I hated driving long distances, therefore I had never been to the city. The lights were bright and vivid, there were too many high-rises to count, and so many different smells that hit me at once that the thought of being homeless finally flashed through my mind. The panic and wondering of this struck me so hard that my foot automatically hit the brakes. My head slammed forwards and hit the steering wheel. I yelp and rub my forehead wincing when I feel that a bump has already formed. The honking of a car forces me to release the brake and drive forwards. I saw a parking lot of a convenience store and I turn into.

I heard bells ring above me when I walked in, telling the clerk that someone had walked in. The clerk looked like he was around my age, 17, and was bored out of his mind. I shake my head and go to the back of the store, where the cold beverages were located. I grab a water and head over to the clerk. When I stood in front of him, he winced seeing the bump on my forehead and said 'ouch'. I just smile and pay for my drink.

I walk out of the store to my car when I see a stray cat outside by the corner of the building. He meows and I pet him, thinking that he was in the same situation as me. I pick him up and walk to my car. I place him in my back seat and pull out my blanket for him. Before I pull out of the parking lot, I open up my phone and check my bank account. If I was going to live here, I would need enough for an apartment. Seeing that I had enough, I then go to the real estate website to find their hours. I sigh even though I knew they were going to be closed on a Sunday night and decided to spend the night in my car. The cat saw my distress and hopped onto the center console and rubbed its head on my arm. I smile and scratch its ears. I lean my seat back and grab the blanket, while the cat snuggles on my chest as I cover the both of us. I close my eyes after a while and wonder what tomorrow would bring me.
