so-hyun never looks decent.

her eyes always have dark circles paired with the palest skin. her hair constantly goes unbrushed and stays tangled, even if she goes out to run errands. she stays home most of the time since she never sleeps anymore.

it has been over 10 years since she has gotten a good night's sleep because of her paranoia that she'll get possessed while she sleeps. even when she buys things to keep ghosts away, like talismans or salt, they just keep finding ways inside her home.

most of the ghosts don't mean any harm and just want so-hyun to fulfill their requests, but most of them are extremely mangled and scary. she doesn't know anything about how she started to see ghosts except that something happened after her family died in a car crash when she was 9 years old, but she was so scarred that her young mind couldn't bare to remember the pain that caused her to see ghosts. she has tried everything she could to try and get her childhood memories back, but nothing she does seems to work.

she is always lonely. everyone that has ever came into her life has left, some even without saying goodbye. seeing ghosts has practically ruined her life, and now she can't even watch horror movies because she knows that none of them has anything right. all she wants is someone that'll accept that she sees ghosts and understands that it doesn't just scare them, but her too.

she just doesn't want to be lonely.



hey! hope you enjoyed the first chapter of my story. it definitely took a long time to think of the plot, but i'm proud of it so far.
