Next day
Today is the day of my mom's funeral... The funeral will be held in the afternoon hours so I still have some time to mentally prepare myself for what's coming.

9:50
I took a shower and ate my breakfast. Hyunwoo also wanted to come but couldn't because of his exams. So I will be the only one attending beside some mom's korean friends and I heard some of my relatives are coming but I don't known them so I will be a stranger to everyone.
I went to the nearby park and sat on the bench. I was watching little kids running around playing with their parents. I smiled to myself and a tears slipped down my cheek. I took my earphones and listened to music.

Day6: I need someone

I felt something hit my leg. I opened my eyes seeing a little boy apologising for hitting me with his ball. I just smiled and ruffled his hair.
"don't worry it's okay. Come on go back to your friends they're waiting for you."
He smiled and left. I was smiling watching him leave.

I miss my childhood. A feeling of being free and careless.

My thoughts were interrupted by someone sitting beside me. I looked up seeing chan.

" hey I'm sorry for my little brother. He's just playing around."
"that was your brother? He's cute and no problem"
He smiled at me
"so. What are you up to today.. I mean.. You probably don't have any plans so I thought that I could show you around Seoul a little since you're new"
I smiled but I suddenly remembered about my mom.
"actually I do have plans. I'm sorry I can't today. What about tomorrow is that okay?"
"oh you do.. With who? I mean okay.. That's okay with me tomorrow it is."

Chan pov
What could she possibly have planned already. She's only been here for 2 days. And especially with WHO. Did she already meet someone? No she looks like an introvert. Ugh why do I even care???

Jiwoo pov
It was already late so I said goodbye and went home to eat lunch. I ate and cleaned up.

14:37
Funeral is in about three hours but I'm already nervous.
I decided to chill a little before leaving to forget about losing my mom for good.

17:00
It's the time. I got ready, took a shower and put on a black outfit. It was about time to leave so Blake came to pick me up. I was trying not to cry already.
We arrived.
My heart was aching and my heartbeat increased. I was scared. I wished for hyunwoo to be here. My mom was out down the grave in a coffin and we honored her with flowers. White roses. Her favorite.
I was the last to go. Tears were sloping down my cheek when I dropped my rose on her coffin.
People slowly started leaving but I stayed there for another 2 hours talking to my mom.
It was starting to get dark so I decided to say goodbye and leave.

Chan's pov

It's very late where is she. I know this is no concern of mine and I don't know why but I care about her.

I was watching the rain fall down and realised she probably doesn't have an umbrella.

Don't get sick okay?

Jiwoo pov
It Started to rain and I didn't have an umbrella but I didn't care. I slowly walked to the car and guards drove me home. They didn't bother me with questions which I appreciated.
I entered the building and walked to my apartment door wanting to unlock them. I stopped mid act feeling tears build up again. I heard the door behind me open. Him again.

Chan's pov
I thought I heard someone come down the hallway. I thought it's her so I went out to check. I was correct but the sight I saw made me wish I wasn't. Her eyes were dull and her nose red. It looked like she was crying. Her hair and close were wet and she was shivering in cold.
My eyes softened and I started to get very concerned about this mystery girl. She entered her apartment before I could talk to her. I leaned against the door with my ear listening to what was going on and all I heard were soft sniffs and sobs that went from quite and gentle to quick and heavy. I knocked on the door gently.

"yeah?"

My heart ached at her voice breaking.

"can i come in?"

I asked very softly.

"I don't want you to se me like this"
"I promise I won't judge you. I want to help you"

She slowly opened the door.

"then help me... Please"

Hey hey!
I hope you enjoyed
I wrote a few parts in like a couple of days but they're not ready to be published yet. I'm currently really stuffed with school like I have chinese exam next week and I really need to study 😩

I usually write on the way to school if I'm bored so I'll probably still publish regularly.
