Drowning (short story)

I inhaled the toxic smoke, before exhaling while sighing.

When have you became like this Park Chorong?

Where has your morales of doing the right things go?

And then again I gulp down another mouthful of beer,

maybe that bitter aftertaste is just like the taste of our fallen relationship.

And this heartbreak is slowly killing me,

Just like the toxic gas I'm inhaling.

And then again, I chuckled bitterly as I saw my own reflection in the river.

So foreign and wasted that I don't recognize myself anymore.

I hate you, no, I hate myself. 

This new self would have been disappointing to you if you're still here.

While you've drowned in fear, I've drown myself in sorrow with alcohol daily..

Changsub ah... Can you please come back to me now, it's too hard...

"Chorong ah!!!"

You came back for me finally, but it's a little too late I guess...

But I'll always love you.

Forever and ever.

One person is Chorong and the other? Sounds like angst and I love it. This could be the prologue of a new story.
