Jinyoung-ah, annyeong. It’s been a long time.
Delete. Delete. Delete.
Yah! Park Jinyoung!
Ani. Who sends messages to their friends like that Kim Jisoo?!
Good Evening Mr. Park Jinyoung of SNU!!
NO. NG*. DELETE.
Jisoo stared at her screen and tried to melt Park Jinyoung's Facebook page with her vision. She's been trying to message him for hours now but she still cannot find the right words to say. She didn’t know that reconnecting with a friend is this hard. If it is her three years ago, she would have called him without hesitaion.
Her mom’s words brought light to her perspective. Jinyoung changed and so was everybody else. Change is something that no one can stop. It is a process that everyone must undergo with.And besides, she really needs Jinyoung’s help. Seoul is a city unfamiliar to her so having a friend that can guide her will cut down the film-making duration and expense.
Because she ran out of ways to greet him, Jisoo resorted for a cute sticker saying “Hello”. She was about to hit send but refused as she cannot muster the courage to do so.She breathed in and out for a few seconds when her stomach grumbled. Jisoo almost danced in relief because she had another excuse for herself. She took her jacket and made her way to the nearest convenience store.
"Jisoo-ah?"
"Jichu?"
”Kim Jisoo?”
Dara called to her housemate but received no reply. She was sure that the kid is inside her room moments ago but now it is completely empty. She wants to borrow Jisoo’s lipstick but the girl is nowhere to be found.
She checked the time and it’s almost 10 PM. Dara worried over her absence but remembered that the latter is fond of eating chicken, most specially during night-time. Maybe she’s buying chicken again, Dara thought. Jisoo and her love for the poultry is a fact well-known in the apartment.
She dialed her number but a ring tone resonated from her room. Dara picked up the phone and canceled her call. An unsent sticker to a certain Jinyoung flashed before her eyes.
“Aigoo, our little chick is sure forgetful”, Dara mumbled. The elder hit send and stepped outside after borrowing the make-up.
