"let's log in and have some fun."

logging in to MSP, somin went to explore, going shopping and to the park, chatting with strangers and at time, getting ignored. sighing, somin entered a cafe and started chatting to strangers, again. after sometime, someone finally held a conversation with her.

"you wanna see how i decorated my place?" he asked.

"sure, i guess it'll do no harm" she responded.

after visiting him and exploring his living room, kitchen and backyard, he finally asked her a question he always wanted to ask.

"you got snapchat? let's talk there."

"yeah i do, what's your handle?" she opened her phone and waited for his respond.

"it's on my board. i'm going to log out now, i'll chat with you there". and with that, he left.

somin went to search for his board and saw his username, quickly typing in the handle and adding him, shutting down MSP.

he quickly added back and typed, "is this the girl from MSP? right?".

"yeah it is! hi :)".

"hi, what's your name? i'm Kim Taehyung! nice to meet you!".

"my name is Lee Somin, nice to meet you too :)".

after waiting a few minutes for his respond, she finally got one.

"oh that's a nice name. how was your day?"

"mine's alright, just got home from school and did a bunch of homework, which were very confusing but i managed. how about you?" she responded, smiling at her phone.

"mine's alright too. what year are you in? i might can help you if you're a year or two below me. i'm in year 12."

[i'm also exaggerating the year i was in for the sake of this book, we both were much younger and i was very naive.]

"i'm in year 11, and really? it must be hard with all the exams right now, right? you don't need to help me, you have a lot on your plate too". she giggled.

"nah, the exams are pretty easy though. nothing i can't do haha. and what are you stuck on? english? math? your electives?"

wow, he's very nice and eager to help, somin thought.

"yeah, i'm stuck on math. it's been messing my brain up for a few days now. i'm for sure going to fail my classes :(".

"it's alright, i'm here to help."

"alright, thank you".

"which district are you in? knowing we both live in the same country!"

"oh, i'm at district 3968, very popular, in a negative way. i'm sure you've heard of it, right?" she questioned.

"oh yeah, i've been there a couple times, i hang out with my friends there. i'm in district 3941. we're not that far away. just a few train stops away."

"yeah, as if. it's like half an hour away by train. liar haha".

"yeah i did haha. well, i'll chat with you tomorrow? i have classes at 8, so i need to sleep now."

"ah alright, goodnight taehyung!".

"goodnight".

you know, i've hesitated about publishing a book based on my true life event. especially this one, as this story hurts me a lot and it makes me cry every time i think about it. recapping this event from the beginning really hit me in the face. gosh, i'm even crying right now as i am writing this.

well, i hope this gets you interested and hopefully you enjoy and continue to read when i update it!
