HOW WE MET
UNBEARABLE PAINBAE SEUL GI POV
i came back home after visiting the grave
"anyone home?" i yelled into the house
"i'm here unnie!" yelled ri in
ri in came running downstairs
and hugged me
smiling bitterly
"you locked in your room again and thought of your mom, didn't you"
ri in ducked her head and just nodded
i just comforted her with a hug
"are you the only one home?' switching the subject
"no, ara unnie is in the backyard pool,"
"i guess you all were thinking about your parents'....."
"of course we were, 2morrow is the third anniversary of their death....while yours was today,"
"ill go with you guys to the grave i dont want to stay home by myself,"
"alright unnie,"
just then ara walked in
"unnie!" ara yelled running up to me
and hugged me tightly
she crying
ri in also was in my grasp
both now crying
i couldn't help but tear as well
these girls were now my family
"were home," boa said
boa and yeonhee both walked in the living room and saw us crying
and knew why we were crying
and they eventually entered the hug
and they also started tearing
we lived together for three years
as we relied on each other after their deaths
suprisingly we met each other at the hospital
FLASHBACK
i went to the hospital 2 days after my family's death
wanting to see their faces for the last time
i walked to the hospital with a sick feeling in my stomach
up ahead i saw the hospital
i breathed in and out
trying to calm myself
i finally stepped in
"hello, how may we help you?"
"i..i....uh...i....never mind,sorry,"
"its alright sweetie,"
i just walked away from the nurse sitting behind the booth
i teared as i was mad at myself for being afraid of seeing their dead faces
i walked to the garden behind the hospital
filled with flowers and trees
and patients taking a stroll
i spotted a girl in a gown that looked my age
i walked up to her
and greeted her
but only got a small smile in return
i sat on the bench and she sat down as well
her head was always down
not looking forward
never looking at me
so i just started talking
"i'm not a patient, but my entire family were in a car accident 2 days ago..b..but i think there death was a m.....," i sighed as i started tearing again
that caught the girl's attention
she was staring
and i stared back at her and smiled
"why are you here?'
"the only family member i had left in the world was killed yesterday, and someone tried killing me as well,"
i held her hand
which seemed to surprise her
"YEONHEE UNNIE!"
a yell came from behind
me and the girl looked behind and found 3 other girls coming this way
they sat on the bench opposite of us
they smiled at the girl next to me
and they noticed me
"hi unnie, who are you?"
a bright girl asked
"i'm seulgi,"
"why are you here?" asked a girl coldly
"unnie..." another girl said
"don't be rude to her," yeonhee said
"sorry," she apologized
"its alright, but im here to say my last goodbye to my family members that were k....killed yesterday," still stuttering whenever i say anything about my family
they looked at me as if they experienced the same pain
"i'm yeonhee," the girl next to me introduced
"and i'm ri in," the bright little girl said
"boa," the cold hearted one said
"i'm ara," the doll-like girl answered
"and we've all lost our family members just yesterday as well, and we are the only survivors,"
"i'm sorry for your lost,"
no one answered
but we just changed the subject
i enjoyed my time with the girls the entire day
i had to leave but i asked for their phone numbers
FEW DAYS LATER
i got news that my boyfriend died and i was utterly alone
more alone now
more alone......
FEW MONTHS PASSED
i hated living alone in this house that reminded me so much of my dead family
i got out my phone and called the 4 girls i haven't seen in a while
and asked them to meet me at a cafe in a mall
i got ready
and ran out the door
i got into the car and drove to the mall
i walked to the cafe and found the 4 girls already there
"hey guys," i said
"hey,"
they all replied in unison
"why'd you wanna meet?" boa asked
"well...i have a question.....are you guys all living alone in the same houses/apartments,"
they all nodded
"Well...i was wondering if you guys wanted to move in with me in a different house,"
they all were quiet all staring at each other
"the reason i suggested this is because i'm alone and i don't want to live in the house that my dead family died in,"i looked down first and then looked up
all there heads were down
"you guys? what do you think?"
i asked
one by one they raised their heads
and nodded
i smiled
i lauged and they laughed
"so...we should pick a house now," ara said
"we should, and furnitures," yeonhee pointed out
"lets start looking at houses today," boa said
"sure,"
and we all left the cafe
END OF FLASHBACK
that's how i met my lovely 4 friends that became my family
