"birds born in cages thinks flying is an illness"

humans are one of the most disgusting creatures that have wandered on this earth we call home. Killing the people they call comrades. stabbing eachother in the back when they came to trust the other. humans are afraid. afraid of getting killed. afraid of being different from the others. they are caged in their own thoughts and opinions. Because voicing your opinions may get you stuck in jail or in an insane asylum. but some people can open their locks on their cage. How they got the key is not the important  part. if they've stolen it, earned it, bought it or if they broke down the cage with force only. the interesting part is where they will go when they are free from their cage. will they kill themself in agony? Will they be to afraid to go out and retreat into the cage once again?

will they run as fast as their feet can bear them, not caring if their feet get bloody in the process?

"i'm off to work now nabi, be safe" safe. safe was something her mother always told her to be. As you can hurt yourself being stuck in an apartment on the fifth floor. What if she would jump of the balcony and try to fly like the small birds that jump from their homes? But the door there is probably locked as usual. Her mother wouldn't want her to get lively and do something stupid. like killing yourself.would she always be stuck in this universe? stuck with a stupid math problem that her private teacher tried to get in her skull. The older woman's words just floated around like clouds inside the dim lit room. Nabi saying that she wouldn't be able to consentrate when the false light of the old table lamp shined on her. the girl's eyes were no longer consentrating on the checked paper with what seemed like her teacher's desperate attempt to get her interseted in the subject. which seemed like a failure. the student's eyes were now focusing on the birds that flew around outside. not having any care in the world. how nice she thought. just flying around not giving a about anyone else than your friends. the older woman with a few wrinkles that decorated her face stood up with a sigh. "if you're not wanting to learn, why should i teach you?" the teacher looked at her student with tired eyes and the student just glared back "because you get a load of money from my pears" The girl stood up and walked over to her bed just to throw herself at it.

Jungok couldn't stand the ungrateful kid anymore walked with heavy steps to the front door to go her way and surely never come back again. It usually were like this nabi would get her teachers annoyed for not wanting to learn or even making an effort. They would walk their way and nabi's parents would bribe them with more money to make them come back. But jungok seemed like a stubborn woman in nabi's thoughts and she wouldn't come back that easily. When her teacher had left, nabi sprung up to her feet and went into the kitchen to get something to eat. she hadn't eaten since breakfast and it was already half past twelve. With a carrot in one hand and a juice box in the other the long haired girl walked back to her room to eat her very nutritious lunch. As if fate played a prank on her, when she opened the door to her room a frame came off from the wall, bounced on the bed and fell on the well carpeted floor. Nabi layed her "lunch" on the bedside table to pick up the brown and worn photoframe. Her eyes stung when she saw the picture. There were six people on the picture including herself. They were all smiling and having fun. Questions filled the girl's head. were they alright? are they happy? do they miss me? are they glad i'm gone?  A upset crow was heard from outside her window, almost taunting her.

that's it she would become a bird and fly as they do. Free and not giving a . Jongok did not usually lock the door but nabi's mother would always be there to lock it so it should have been unlocked at the moment. The girl became frantic all of a sudden. Running around for her phone, backpack, warm clothes, phone charger and some food. changing into a pair of comfortable jeans, a warm hoddie, running shoes, a jacket and a cap to top it all of. When she was packed and ready she glanced at her father's wallet that was laying on the kitchen table. all ready for her to use. with a deep breath she ran up to the kitchen table and snatched the wallet and put it in her pocket for safe keeping. hesistantly she twisted the doorknob and to her luck it opened. it was like her fear and need stopped her from taking a step further. a deep breath was heard.

then she ran down the stairs.

Chapter 7: This was pretty good! It's great to see more development of Nabi's character through her personal struggle. As well as showing the effect of the exposure to her parent's environment and how much that's taken a toll on her as a person. You see just feel like life is hell. Even so far as to assume she's dead when she wakes up. It was an overall great chapter and the plot is obviously there. I can't wait to see the group dynamics especially after so much time has passed. But I also can't wait to see more character development not only individually but as a group. I also what to see the overall evolution they have as friends. To actually be happy past the bitterness and sadness that is life. To actually find something to live for and bind them together forever as friends. It was also great to see Tak appear. Tbh I didn't expect to see him as the first character introduced but it was a pleasant surprise.

Anyway I apologize for not commenting/reviewing earlier it's just I ended up going overseas for my birthday for quite awhile. But anyway you did great on this chapter. I honestly can't wait to see more. Whether it be introductions, development or plot because you got something in your writing and it's great.

Chapter 7: Nabi! Poor girl, I just want to give her a huge hug. I really loved the chapter and the ending. I can't wait to read the next ones!

If you were to ask Minah who her favourite fairytale character used to be, Minah would have said Wendy. She dosen't fully remeber the story if Peter Pan but she always wanted someone who could show her a beautiful life , someone who could take her away and make her forget all the hassles of life and make her feel extremely happy. But if you were to ask her now, she would probably just ignore you and say something about how fairytale are meant for little kids so why would she like them?

As for my favourite fairytale character... it's too hard to pick one. I always really loved Beauty and the Beast growing up so probably Chip!

Chapter 7: all while reading this chapter, i kept praying for nabi. she seemed so weak and frail, and it's very dangerous to be in a big city like seoul on her own ㅠㅠ like, people are bound to take advantage on her.

I REALLY LIKE THE WHOLE PARAGRAPH ON WHERE NABI STARTED SHOUTING. ok, idk, she was wishing on her death but that part really gets to me. ;;; AND OMG HAHA KWAK INNA + COFFEE = TRUE. i laughed so hard and then felt like crying bc.. the current inna probably won't write that stuffs up again.

anyways!! this chapter is AWESOME as hell, and i really like the way you write and haejin, many thanks for finding our nabi. ;;

inna's favorite fairytale?? i think it would be the pied piper of hamelin???? the pied piper was betrayed, right?? of the villagers, so he ended up leading their kids somewhere else. in a way, he's like inna. she was betrayed, and so she leads everyone astray with their false impression of her.

mine? i like robin hood. i have 0 idea why i like fairytales with male as the lead, but hmm. robin hood is a cool guy -- he steals, but for a good reason. haha. aaa i guess that's that? ♡♡

this update was awesome ok rip

Chapter 7: Oh no poor Nabi D: I really feel for her, man this fic is gonna hurt me so much why did I do this to myself? (because I'm a er for emotional hurt, that's why). It's a good thing she found Haejin, he should help. I feel like he's the one who's got his together the most out of all of them, and considering he's homeless that's really quite telling.

Oh no you're gonna make us think xD As he is right now I think Junseo's favourite fairytale would be the Little Mermaid because it has a sense of escaping, but also the original fairytale doesn't end happy either and Junseo is in such a bad place right now that he would identify with that as well.

As for me, when I was little I really used to love the princess and the pea, though for the life of me I don't remember why xD

Chapter 6: can you hear hysterical screaming noises??

that's me. oh my god, i'm so happy to see inna being on the charas' page! i spent a lot of time on her app and she's a portrayal of me, so i'm really.. protective over her. ♡ thank you for choosing her, really!

also, the other characters seemed really awesome too. especially woori, like, she's intriguing! her description it a+. also! oh, my god.

the prologue is so cool! first of all, your writing style really suits this genre. aaa and you wrote inna perfectly well, don't worry about that and also, don't worry about not updating. i'm pretty busy, too, exams are coming up. (also, i love inna's interactions i could tell that you really pay attention to the way i wrote the interactions in my app!!)

: conclusion? i love this. so, so much. ㅠㅠ this gives me a k-drama feel, you know.

Chapter 6: I loved the way you wrote Minah and her reaction to Minhyun. I liked the way all of the characters seemed to bounce off each other like real friends ;; ;; I can't wait for the rest of the story! But please don't rush. School should come first! I wish you all the best with your school stuff!

Chapter 6: I love it! ;¬; Can't say much about how you portrayed Woori considering she wasn't there (;P) but I love how Nabi referred to it as a "stupid church camp", that's definitely how I figured most of the group would view her devotion~ I really like all the characters though, it's so sad they're not going to see each other again for such a long time ;; This has definitely got me even more hype for the story though, I love your writing voice!
