10. The warmth of true love

I was being very worried lately, after all the trouble I had gotten into. I was fired, two times to be exact, and I found my boyfriend cheating on me. And on top of all of that, I was worrying about my dear friend. Song Ji-na. I had recieved a gift from my mother, wich was two tickets to Trapnest's concert in my hometown, and silly me invited Ji-na to go with me. And then soon I learnt, that she had in fact been the former lover of Trapnest's bassist, Hong Ri-seung.

I blamed myself so much for not noticing her pain, for being so foolish. But she was strong, and I adored her so much for that. Because she agreed to come, so that she could finally put an closure on things.

And then came the time finaly, when we would go. I had thought about it trough the whole week, as I survived every day on work being treated like a dog by my boss and his fellow workers, who just like my past bosses, only hired me for my good looks. Yet I kept my anger inside me, and focused on getting trough with it instead. Earn money, so I could go on with my life.

Ji-na were heavily smoking on that day, and I took it as a sign that she was extremely stressed over this situation. We stepped upon the plattform, while we saw our train come rolling into the station. And I could clearly see on her, that it must have felt like her heart would pound out of her chest.

The only luggage she had taken with her, was the black leather guitarcase, just like the first time I had meeten her. It was just very nostalgic to me to stand there, where it had all begun. And now we would return to Samcheok, and live in my family's house for two days as we attended the concert. Although I had not seen them for a long time, all my worries had kept me from missing them.

It took hours to reach Samcheok, and trough this time we were both more silent than usual. Ji-na had probably not slept so well the day before either, as she had dark rings around her eyes, and not by the make-up. She gazed out of the window at the scenery as she looked back at everything, reflected upon her memories of him. And I did not want to keep her from that either, as I just wanted her too be happy again. That would certainly make me happy too, as selfish as that might sound.

- Welcome home!, my mother said as she hugged me thightly. And then, faster than I expected she pushed me away. As she saw Ji-na stepping in besides me in the doorstop. - Hello, I'm Jind..Ji-na's friend, Song Ji-na, she said and shaked my mothers hand. For a moment, I worried she might judge her by the rockstar attire, but instead she gladly introduced herself and my two sisters back.

And then eagerly, inviting us in. Telling us about how much food she had prepared for our visit, and then suddenly chattering about how she realy thought I would return home with a boy, and how she got so suprised to see it being such a nice person like ji-na. And Ji-na, well she sat there in the coach calmly taking her time to answer everything politely back.

She was so admireable. I showed her my bedroom, wich was pretty much the same as back in Seoul, exept a lot more messyer and girlier. - You have got a realy nice family, she said later as she took over after I had struggled to pull up the guestbed. - Thank you, I said smiling warmly. I felt like I could finaly now relax, as Ji-na seemed to do so to. Perhaps things would go realy well, I hoped.

The next day, we spendt the morning preparing ourselves for the concert in the evening. We both sitting there, putting make-up on like we were sisters. And Ji-na seemed so calm, like it did not bother her at all that she would be seeing the one who broke her heart, performing on a stage bigger than she had yet been on herself. Perhaps it must have felt like he where now nothing but a rival.
