It's was so bright. It's blinding.

 

I hear beeping sounds, as well as my mom calling my name. "Chaeyoon-ah" I heard my mom calling me again. This time her voice is shaking, almost sobbing.

 

I blinked. Where am I?

 

"Water." I said. I feel very thirsty. I feel like I haven't had anything to drink for a long time.

 

 

"Doctor, how's my daughter?" my mom speaks again. Still holding my hand tightly.

 

 

The doctor explained something to my mom, which I barely understand. There's only one thing in my mind now. I remember being with him last night, biking at the park, laughing at his jokes. I remember stopping by the convenience store with him, he bought ice cream for both of us. I remember seating on the bench with him. I remember going home with him. I remember seeing a bright light, and a loud beeping of a car.

 

 

Where is Jihoon?

 

 

"Jihoon..." was what came out of my mouth next. Then my mom and the doctor stopped talking. 

 

 

"Chaeyoon-ah...Jihoon..." my mom hesitated. Then she started sobbing, so hard.

 

 

"Jihoon...where is he?" I asked. My mom did not answer, still sobbing.

 

 

Then a tear started to flow out of my eyes.

 

 

"I'm sorry Chaeyoon. I'm sorry." was what my mom said after she have calmed from crying too much.

"Jihoon-ah, do you think I will get the job?" I asked Jihoon as I sipped on my milktea. He just smiled. I know that smile so well, and I missed it.

 

 

"I know you believe in me so much, but you could at least say that I will pass and I will get a job and I did great." I pouted.

 

 

He was still smiling.

 

 

"I miss you so much. Are you looking at me right now from up there? Just look after me okay? I'll see you again. Not soon,  but someday." 

 

 

I stood up.

 

 

"Bye Jihoon. I'll visit you again next weekend. Don't be too sad while I'm gone okay?" but I was the one who's sad. Sad that he is not here beside me.

 

 

"I'm going." I said, smiling as I walk away and went home.
