The Perfect Day | Kim Taehyung

Who Are You?

I woke up to the sound of my loud alarm clock blasting in my ear drums. I quickly swung my left arm over my head and hit the snooze button and I sat up. I walked into my bathroom and stared at my reflection, mortified at what I looked like. My curly brown hair looked like a giant frizz ball that could never be tamed and the bags under my eyes were dark from exhaustion. I tried taking my curls by taking some water and hair spray and it ended up looking ok. As I grabbed my favorite cushion and started applying it all over my face, I was really dreading going to school. She would be there. She would be watching me. I tried to erase my bad thoughts by playing some music. Putting my playlist on shuffle, Singularity was the first song to pop up and I fell in love. The vocals I this song were breathtaking and as she sang along loudly, she could hear her mother's annoying cry, "Miyoung! You're going to be late! Get your butt out here and eat your breakfast!" Rolling my eyes, I slipped my white converse onto my feet, grabbed my backpack, and headed to the kitchen.

As I walked to school, headphones buzzing in my ears, I could only imagine what would happen at school today. The pain Eunbi would put me through made my heart ache and my eyes water. Not looking up from my phone and paying no attention, all of a sudden in front of the school, I bumped into someone and fell the ground hard. My phone fell to the ground and as I looked up, I saw a new face.

"Are you okay?" A very handsome guy asked holding his hand out to me to grab. His innocent face and angelic body made me feel strange and want to grab his hand tightly. His jawline could cut through metal. I couldn't breathe.

"Y-yess I'm fine. Sorry," I replied while ignoring his hand, quickly grabbing my belongings off the ground, and speed walking past him, not looking back. My face felt as hot as fire and embarrassment flooded my body. But the question still stuck: Who was he? Was he new? Was he studying abroad? All I knew was this was not the last time I would see this mysterious beauty.
