My Old Friend

Chaeyoung invited me to come hang out in her house. she said that's an opportunity to have a look at it and to get used to each other.

I really have no time to waste by meeting and hanging out around. My goal is clear in my head and I am using every single opportunity I have to work towards. But since it's a chance to have a look at the place I am going to live in, I accepted the invitation. Also, I didn't want to be rude as she was kind enough to let me live there. So, it's the least I could offer.

Since I have no car, I always use buses to go from place into another.  Sometimes I walk instead if it's possible for me to reach destination on time. Every step I make is calculated to the minimum risk with more benefits in hand. This could make me sound as a weird person but it's a fact for people like me.

Today is different though. Chaeyoung sent someone to pick me up from the place I provided to her. She asked about the address and I told her that I could wait for the car near the bus stop in my area. It was a little surprising when she said that a car will pick me up to the place. She insisted for me to accept her offer as I was about to reject it.

I am the kind of person who doesn't like people to pity me. My pride won't allow such actions being taken with such purposes behind it. But the fact that she doesn't know anything specific about me yet what makes it easy to accept. Though, I do wonder if Mina said anything regarding my situation to that girl. Mina knows what I am working for and what makes me so damn busy all days. She's been on my side for as much as I can remember. She never gave up on me. It was such a lovely days indeed.

Now I am in my way to the house. Looking outside the window observing what could be seen. Well I might say that my eyes are open but my mind is drown with so much things that I need to fix and work on. I can't really tell what I am seeing at all. My vision landed on the side view of the car and I noticed that there is a vehicle behind us that been following for a while now.

I want to shrugged it off but I don't like to let my guard down no matter what. I kept watching the car and no matter were we go it's still behind following us. Now, thinking of the possibilities, the only thing I could think of right now is that they are coming for me. Since the driver is not really a target in a situation like this. And if I remember correctly, there was no car behind when the driver arrived to pick me up. Could it be that bastard again?...

The car suddenly changed the speed. I see, the driver noticed after all. We are going faster and I saw the car behind us doing the same. My hands grabbed firmly into my seat belt. I think we are changing direction at this point and trying to run away.

Then something happens out of my expectations. Another car went in the scene and now it's behind us instead of the other one. The driver switched into a one way road. With that, the car behind us is slowing down a lot, and it seems that the car that is following us all the way behind is in big struggling to pass.

This way the driver took the chance to run fast, away from what's happening. I am wondering really what happened all of a sudden and how that car came into the scene out of nowhere. I kept looking behind just in case that the car shows up again.

-------------------------------

We reached as I see Jeongyeon unnie if I am not mistaken by the gate standing. I was kind of taken back by the place. It's not super big but it's not small at the same time.

How to say this, it's not like I didn't used to such view like this before. In fact, I used to have a house like this and a company in its own. But things happened and the table flipped on top of our heads. And her I am struggling to climb again for my family sake. I don't really want to remember what happened back then. It was much worse days.
