Lisa POV

I don't mind
Letting you down easy but just give it time
If it don't hurt now, but just wait, just wait a while
You're not the big fish in the pond no more
You are what they're feeding on

"Hey sweetie go down here, breakfast is ready! " My mom shouted

I don't mind
Letting you down easy but just give it time
If it don't hurt now, but just wait, just wait a while
You're not the big fish in the pond no more
You are what they're feeding on

"Oh come on sweetie,you'll be late!" Mom shouted again

Ain't it fun
Living in the real world?
Ain't it good
Being all alone?

"Did I told you not to set your alarm if you're not going to wake up on your own?" My mom said as soon as she barged into my room and turn off my alarm.

" So better wake up or else this would be the last time you will hear that song," my mom threatened me as she have her seat on my bed.

"Oh come on mom, what is your problem with that song?!"I suddenly uttered as soon as I open my eyes and lean my head on the headboard.

" I don't have any problems with that song but maybe it's you who has the problem with it," my mom uttered as she stood up from my bed.

"Really?"

" Definitely yes sweetie, it is your alarm tone ever since but I can't remember the time when you woke up on your own because of that alarm tone of yours not unless I will barge in," mom said as she about to leave my room.

" Sorry mom, let us just say that maybe your voice is my favorite alarm tone ever" I uttered as I gave my mom a kiss on her cheeks.

"By the way mom, good morning"

"Oh come on Lalisa, you are so stubborn yet a sweet talker" a smile crept on my lips. 

"By the way, you better fix yourself or else you'll be late" My mom said as she closed the door

"Okay mom, don't worry, just give me 10 minutes to fix myself!" I shouted as I went to my bathroom. 

As soon as I went down to the kitchen, my stomach started to grumble, who would not if you'll smell that kind of aroma. Well, I can say that I am very thankful to wake up everyday to witness these kind of foods that my mom always served. For me she is the best chef in the world.

Guess what? We will having hoeddeok (sweet syrupy pancakes), japchae (stir-fried noodles), sundubu-jjigae (soft tofu stew) and fresh milk  for our breakfast. What a great morning!  

"Oh sweetie, come on, let us eat" My mom said as soon as she saw me.

"Thanks Ms. Chef for this wonderful foods " I said as I kissed my mom's cheeks and had my seat.

" Mom I want chocolate drink "Yeri, my asshole bratty sister said as she put down her iphone on the table. 

Yeri is my step sister, I prefer to call her as bratty since she acts like that. Well, she is 3 years younger than me. She will be a Grade 12 student as soon as the school days start. Honestly,even though this bratty kiddo is a brat one, still she has a soft heart. I remember when our mom hide my favorite chocolate drink from me, she really help me to find it, she then told me that she will help me in one condition, and that is I should give her my favorite NIRVANA cloth, sounds great right? She's indeed a bratty girl. Well, despite of that, we became buddy, we always count for each other especially when her father died 10 years ago due to a car accident. I was there when she was always crying alone because she was looking for her dad.
