A New Light
Life Under a BridgeThe two girls looked around for hours while sifting through the grass. Eunbi continued to have no luck. All she found were some creepy dolls, moldy food containers, and empty cans. Eunbi looked to her right at Yerin. The girl wasn’t that far from her, but saw that the girl had her hands full again.
‘How is it she can keep finding all these things?? Maybe I should get my eyes checked or something…’
Breaking her train of thought, Eunbi and Yerin looked up when they heard their names being called. Finding the source, the pair found Umji waving her hand and walking towards them. As she got closer she said, “How did your search go?”
Yerin posed showing her immense findings making the soft-spoken girl chuckle.

She opened ready to speak but before she could say something, she was cut off again.
“Before you answer that though, I’d like to change my question if that okay?”
‘Why do I always get cut off?? I hope this wont be a reoccurring thing!’ Eunbi thought while trying to hide her relief by saying, “Oh… that’s fine, what’s your new question?” She still wasn’t ready to open up.
“I want to get to know you more, so I figured I’d just ask you simple questions instead. So to start, what do you do? Do you have a job or something like that?”
