The Missing Piece

Seokso:

I was very surprised that my best friend and I liked the same girl. I didn't tell Taehwan that I also liked her because I didn't want our friendship to end just because of a girl. I didn't know what to say, should I support him or do I convinced him to not like Abigail?

Taehwan looks at me patiently waiting for my answer or advice to give it to him

"Um so Taehwan, I think it's really sweet of you of sending cards to her but my advice would be to keep giving her notes until she wants to meet up with you then you'll see if she's into you"

Taehwan flashes me his boxy smile

"Thanks, Seokso, I'll do that, you're the best friend I could ask for!"

I give him a weak smile and continue eating the food.

Abigail:

I heard someone come through the door. It must be appa I guessed. I walk down the stairs to greet him

"Hey Appa, how was the concert?" I asked

"It was great I was a little bit rusty at the beginning and I got to see your uncles but everything went well" he went towards the kitchen and started taking some pots and pans out

"So what do you guys want to have for dinner?"

"Can we have some Japchae with banana milk?" Jeonsan asked

"Yeah sure, that's my favorite, you guys can come and help me make it"

Jeonsan squeals in joy and quickly grabs his apron. Jeonsan likes cooking and helping in the kitchen so whenever appa or I ask for help he gets excited. I grab my apron and wash my hands with some cold water.

Japchae is not easy to make you need to marionette the beef into a sauce and cook it.

"Okay we will let that cook for about 20 mins while that's cooking we can start setting up the table," Appa says.

Cooking with the family has always been a tradition that we did with my eomma, I remember one time when I was 4 or 5 we made homemade banana milk, it was so much fun the best part was drinking it at the end. Even though eomma was not here it feels like she is spiritual with us.

"Mmm, this turned out amazing!" Jeonsan emphasized with his mouth full of food

"We should save some for uncle Jin and see if we did a good job" Appa jokingly said

"So how was school?" He asked

I was hoping Appa wouldn't ask that question. I hate going to school, all the girls bully and make fun of me because of either my height, hair, or personality but mostly cause they think I'm poor. I don't wear brand clothing and rarely wear makeup. Every single day was a torture, I had Taehwan by my side he would always make me feel better or sometimes stand up for me when I can't. Why won't you show me who I am? Why do you have to hide my identity? Because of your fault, I'm getting hurt and punished every day for something I didn't do! I wish I could have told that to him and what I was feeling but I knew that the answer would be 'it's for your protection' so by avoiding any drama happening I lied

"It's fine, same as always"

appa gives me a concerned look,

"Is everything alright?"

"Yeah I just need to keep doing this for the next two years and then I'll be done with school"

"Oh speaking about that, have you thought about what you want to do after school?"
