Short update coz I miss Lisoo

By midnight the darkness is almost absolute, only a smattering of luminous stars scatter the heavens. Even the moon has waned to almost nothing and I cannot see even my hand in front of my face.

The roads are now silent, a few people from their works walking passed down the road, looking so tiny on my spot. My night had been like this for almost a year now, after a day of busying myself at work and go home after 5, cold in canned beer in my hand and a stick of cigarettes on my chapped lips.

After a long and deep stroke on my cigs, I throw the butt somewhere, I don't care if someone might hit underneath as I emit the smoke dissipating along with the cool wind of winter here in Seoul.

I heard my phone rang inside my room, I headed back inside and pick up the phone before going back to the balcony of my house, our house.

"Hey baby." She greets me with her cheerful voice. I gritted my teeth and my jaw clenched as my blood starts boiling. "I'm sorry." She speaks again but this time her voice is visibly sad.

I scoffed but I still didn't utter any word.

"Are you tired from work?" She asked hopefully, that this time I'll speak but no, I refused to. "I'm sorry." She uttered again.

I hanged up the call and I didn't notice the tears flowing down on my face and wiped it off quickly but it's keep flowing and so I let them, I cried my heart's out and fell asleep on the balcony while crying.

The next morning, I woke up with a lick on my face and a loud bark of dog. I blink my eyes rapidly and pushed myself up from the bed.

"You fell asleep at the balcony...again, for the hundredth time." I snapped my head at the door and saw my best friend leaning on the door frame with her arms cross.

"Good morning." I greet sarcastically and rolled out of the bed and went to the bathroom. After I finished my morning ritual I walked straight to the kitchen and saw Jennie, Chaeyoung's girlfriend. Her best friend.

"Good morning Lisa." She greeted and hug me.

"Morning Jen." I said and took the seat across her and starts digging my food. I can feel the gaze that they were given to me but I ignore them.

"How many times do I have to remind you that you owned a fucking bed Lisa." Chaeyoung nags but I still ignored her. "Lisa.." She called softly.

"Thanks for the food." I utter and stood up. "I'm off to stidio." I said and before I walked out from the kitchen, I heard Chaeyoung sighed exasperatedly and cussed.

The photoshoot ended quickly and I drove home. I walked straight to the kitchen to grab an in can beers and walk inside my room, dropping my bag to the bed and made my way to the balcony. Our favorite part of the house.

Midnight approached, dragging me into the day I had been dreading for weeks. Now all I can do is sit in the star speckled darkness and wait until the dawn because tomorrow is Sunday and I don't have works.

I planned to get drunk tonight and get wasted. In my eight can beer, my phone rang again, I fishes it out of my pocket and answered the call.

"Hi baby!" She greeted enthusiastically. "How's your day?" She asked and again, I didn't respond. "Talk to me baby." She utter that even if I can't see her, I know that she's pouting.

My heart beats frantically that it could almost burst outside of my chest, it twitches and the excruciating pain is gradually killing me.

"I'm sorry baby."
