march 19, 2019, the day my life changed forever, the day I lost my mom, the day I moved to new york. march 25th, the day of her funeral, the day I sobbed myself to sleep.
-the next morning-
I woke up with a terrible headache, tear stains on my pillow, tissues everywhere. wow, I’m a mess. I sighed and got out of bed, walking down my stairs to go to my kitchen. I heard my grandma’s voice from outside. she’s probably talking to the neighbors. I then heard her scream at someone, I got startled and ran outside. way to start off my morning. my grandma and my neighbor were arguing and pointing at something on the road. a dog? “well you can’t just leave it there, it will get run over”, “well then who's gonna move it, huh, cause we all know you ain’t”, my grandma said to my neighbor. I was so scared because the dog looked like it wasn’t moving. my grandma must have heard me cause she said “y/n go back inside.” I looked at her, then the dog, then my neighbor. I scoffed and walked towards the dog, I crouched down and it immediately looked up at me. It stood up in an instant and started running around. I got up, looked at both of them and said, “see, it’s fine, you don't need to yell” I started walking back to my house, ready to go back to sleep, when I heard the dog barking and running up to me. I picked up the dog, looked back at my grandma and said “I’m keeping her.” and walked inside. I brought her to the bathroom, set her down, and started the bath. after it was ready, I put her in it and started washing her. after about a good 15 minutes, I took her out and dried her off. I let the water drain and took her to my room. I let her explore while I checked my phone. 8:37 am. I sighed and plopped down on my bed, my new dog joining me. rolling onto my back, I looked at her. she was all brown with white paws and a white patch on her right eye. she kinda reminded me of my friend woong’s dog. “you look a lot like lummi you know” I said to her. maybe I should text them. I grabbed my phone and clicked on my group chat.

I put my phone on my nightstand, grabbed my covers and pulled them over my body. I heard my dog walk under the covers and snuggle next to my chest. looking down at her I giggled. welcome to the family. I decided to name her nae. park nae.
