Who Are You and Who Am I?

Chapter 1

"... Sorry Sorry Sorry Sorry Naega Naega Naega Meonjeo Nege Nege ..."

Being startled awake by my alarm clock I quickly slammed my hand down on it and looked around to make sure no one had entered my room. Not seeing anyone I was just about to sigh in relief when my twin brother Minho barged into my room.

"Good you're up, mother said to get up and to come get breakfast if you want to make it on time to your Book Club meeting Mi-Ok"

" Ehh what do you mean if I want to get there on time? Isn't it..." not finishing my sentence I turn to my alarm clock only to notice that I had indeed over slept and only had 35 minutes, including the 20 minute bike ride, to get to my so called Book Club meeting.

"Yah! Why didn't you wake me up earlier! Aish!" I yelled frustrated at my brother while running my hand through my messy and tangled dyed red hair. Not waiting to hear his response I shoved him out of my room, grabbed a pair of black sweatpants and a white sweatshirt to quickly change into and brushed back my hair into a high ponytail after doing my business in the bathroom.

Running down the stairs I then entered my kitchen where my mom, dad and brother were waiting for me. Not noticing the cake on the breakfast table I walked past them to grab a cereal bar from the kitchen cabinets, when the lights suddenly went out.

"What the h..."

Turning around I was surprised to see my family start singing happy birthday to me while picking up the strawberry cake which had lit candles on it from the kitchen table. Not being able to comprehend was was going on I was surprised to hear my brother start laughing at me.

"Did you seriously forget your own birthday?" He asked me while putting an arm around my shoulder.

"..."

Not being to come up with an answer to that I pulled my brother into a hug.

"You little twerp this was all your idea wasn't it?" I questioned him while trying to hold back my tears of happiness.

"Yah! I'm not little! Must I remind you of the fact that I'm older by 2 minutes?" He said while rubbing his knuckles on the top of my head.

"I know, I know but I'm more mature! And ouch! Hey stop that! It hurts!" I yelled out while trying to get away from him.

Chuckling my brother let me go and let me know that all of this had in fact been his idea but that my mom and dad had planned it all. Hearing this I quickly turned to my parents who were smiling and took the cake from their hands, only to set it down and pull my parents into a hug.

"Thank you , this means a lot to me" I quietly whispered to my parents.

"No, thank you for being the caring and understanding daughter you are, even after everything thats happened these past two years" My mom said while gently squeezing her arms around me.

Not wanting to have her think back to those two hard year's I quickly pulled away and smiled at them. Seeing this my brother abruptly clapped his hand and exclaimed "So who wants some cake?"

Laughing I pretended to think for a moment "Hmm let's see... I can either be late to my meeting or spend some more time with my family while eating a slice of this delicious looking cake... I think I have enough time for a slice of cake or two"

Hearing this my family pushed me forward to make a wish and blow out the candles on the cake while they brought out the plates and forks. Knowing exactly what my wish was for I blew out the candles and proceeded to cut the cake. Seeing this my mom clapped and started passing out slices of the cake to me, my brother, and my father.

"So what did you wish for baby girl", my dad asked me

"Uh... Its a secret" I replied while sticking out my tongue "Anyways who bought this cake? Its delicious!"

"It was homemade you twerp, mom made it" my brother said as he shoved me to the side and towards our mom.

"Thanks mom its delicious" I shyly said to my mom

"No problem sweetie, you know I would do anything in the world to you smile again"

Getting chocked up and feeling tears coming I cleared my throat and said "Sorry mom I said I would stay a while but I really have to get going, I only have 25 minutes left to get to my club meeting " not wanting them to see my face I quickly turned, picked up my bag and walked out the front door.

Walking to the garage I grabbed my bike and was about to get on it when I suddenly felt someone grab my shoulder.

"It seems I was finally able to catch you"
