A not so simple life

I'm Hei Ryung and I have a not so normal life. High-school, a part time job, an average apartment, I have them all. Parents. I don't have them. They were gone in a car accident when I was only 8 years old, which was not just a car accident. My uncle was a detective, and after he found out that the breaks of the car were purposely broken, it was obvious that the car accident was planned. But after just a week or so, he was said to have done suicide, which I obviously don't believe. He never had any problems or depression as far as I can remember. That left me with the conclusion that he was killed too, most probably by the same people who killed my parents to stop him from going deeper into the case. Now, even after trying to get to open up the case again, nothing works as everyone refuses to investigate it because of how old the case was. I was later taken in by my grandmother. She also passed away because of old age more than half year ago. Now I'm 19 and I live alone. Yes, I do have a brother, but we live alone. He insisted on living with his friends because he didn't want to live with my "boring ass". I was busy with my assignments and job shifts anyway so he was normally home alone. His friends were also childhood and I trusted them so I didn't really mind. We agreed to make a visit to each other's apartment tho. Friends? I have friends. Or to be more specific, I have two friends, Miyeon and Haru. Haru was the same age as me while Miyeon was 2 months older than us. We were bestfriends from childhood too and I never really felt the need to make more friends, not that I was social anyway. And yeah, that's my life.

I groan as I shut down the annoying alarm clock and get up from my cozy, warm bed. It was Monday, that means back to school. I am gonna graduate in half an year anyway. After taking a quick shower, I get ready and head to the kitchen. I only had two bedrooms, which one was used by my grandmother and now it was locked, my bedroom with an attached bathroom and a living room with an attached kitchen. Getting myself an apple with milk, I get out of my apartment after taking my jacket, gloves, cap and whatever could keep me warm. Now are the months of snow and the weather was really cold. Plugging in my earphones, I listen to "stay" by Blackpink, that matched perfectly with the beautiful morning. The snow was falling down, slowly turning everything white like sprinkled powder. With the different colours of the sky that were gradually fading away by now, and the delicious aroma of freshly baked bread, It felt like heaven. At that moment, I just wanted the time to stop and stay like that forever, away from all the worries, away from everything. I was abruptly pulled back to reality, as my face meets the snow bed, and a weight of another person over me.

"What the-" I groan as I quickly get up and dust my clothes to get rid of the snow from my jacket while the other person does the same.

Haru:- "Don't you curse at me!! And how would I know that you had such a poor balance!?!!"

"Don't blame it on me!! How would I know that a panda would jump onto me out of no where?!?!" I shout back, lowering my voice at the end, realising that we were practically yelling at each other in public.

"Uh w-well you should get used to it by now. Anyways how's my baby?? She says very well aware of her choice of words.

"Don't you call me that you-"

"Do you guys ever stop fighting with eachother?" Miyeon says, making her entry and smaking us both on our heads.

"I seriously think that I'm bestfriends with toddlers" She blabbers AGAIN.

"Whatever. We're going to be late if we just stand here, let's go" I say, putting my hands in my pockets to give them more warmth.

"Let's gooo" Haru shouts, excitedly.

"Lower your voice you idiot. What are you even excited about?" Miyeon tries to quite her down.

"Don't call me that you pig!! What would you know about studing? All you do is sleep!!" Haru shouts back again.

"What- you- I'm older than you!!"

"Only by two month"

"That still counts!!"

Thier voices slowly fade away as I turn my music back on, slightly shaking my head at the two, making our way to school through the chilli weather.
