"and the memories i never can escape.. cause i'm not fine"

akemi found herself in a field of sunflowers. as she walked around staring at the sunflowers in awe,she attempted to find someone to question. although the more she walked around the emptier and larger the field would become. the thought of being completely alone caused panic to set in her body like flames. but before she knew it her brother was standing in front of her. on his face was his endearing smile. the one he always directed at her no matter what even if he had a hard day at work.even if he was suffering on the inside. the boy reached a hand out to her and as soon as akemi reached to grab it he disappeared, the flowers quickly wilted, and the bright sun was soon replaced by the dark night and gleaming moon.

a tall man had appeared in front of her. he looked like her brother but akemi knew it wasn't. she didn't know the man in front of her. he was scarier, more intimidating, and she couldn't ignore his dead eyes. they had no expression at all. the more she tried to find life in them the more petrified she was. the male looked into akemi's eyes and smiled at her catching her off guard. at first glance it seemed like her brothers but the more she observed it the more she realized. instead of being endearing it was sinister. she looked back up at the male with terror all over her face. although the male jumped at her before she could react.

akemi suddenly sat up in her bed drenched in sweat breathing heavy. she quickly observed her surroundings before sighing and laying back onto her bed. recently she'd been having nightmares. most of the time she didn't mind them they were comforting. almost like they reassured her. but these weren't like the ones she usually had she couldn't help but to be scared.

akemi sat up from her bed and decided to take a quick shower to wash off all the sweat. she scrubbed her body as if she was attempting to wash off the fear and thoughts running through her mind. although nothing terrified her more than seeing her brother like that in her dream. she quickly shook her head to brush off the though. that couldn't have been her brother....right? had akemi missed something? the mans smile seemed so similar to hiriko's... it couldn't have been if it had so much evil behind it right...?

once akemi had gotten out of the shower she decided to call areum to come over. they could stay inside all day watching movies or they could go out shopping. akemi smiled remembering there was a cute hoodie he had seen at the mall the other day.

receiving the call areum had started getting ready. this would be the perfect opportunity to buy an apology gift for yunho. after everything happening recently she had ignored yunho without meaning to. but it was for the best since a fight would have mot likely broke out if she mentioned anything.

areum quickly got dressed in a black plaid skirt, a black off shoulder long sleeve and a pair of black shoes. she applied her everyday makeup which was more on the natural side. once she was done she left her room and started heading towards the front door. while walking past the living room she noticed jaehyun sitting there. he seemed to be playing a game on his phone.

"i'm going to akemi's apartment" areum said standing near the front door waiting for a reply from jaehyun. the other boy nodded at the statement seeming to not care about what she had to say. akemi huffed before walking out the door and heading towards her car. "he's acting as if he didn't just sneak into my room to give me a teddy bear because he was too embarrassed." akemi said to herself and got inside areum's car and started it. she closed the door behind her and started driving towards her friends house.

once areum had arrived akemi let her in and the girls quickly rushed up to akemi's bedroom. when the girls would hang out they would usually go to areum's apartment since her's was closer to restaurants making it more convenient.  although ever since the older male had moved in it made it harder for the girls to hang out at the apartment.
