A/N:

It's going to be short and simple first chapter. Just really a fast drabble. Inspired by the song Heavy Metal Heart by Sky Ferreira. August seems to be so looooooong to come. I'm loving Sooyoung's hair already :(

 

Lalalala.

 

Warm regards,

Heavy Metal Heart

 

An old lady removed the signage ‘DO NOT DISTURB.’ hanging on a narrow black door on the second floor of her house.

 

 “Honey, Come out! We’re going to be late for our neighbor’s dinner.”   She knocked three times and sighed when she heard no response. She heard AC/DC’s Thunderstruck blaring inside the room. She loudens her voice and knocked loudly to be heard by the person inside.

 

“You’ve been camping inside your room for months since we moved here. At least come out with us and meet our new neighbors.”  The old lady was trying to regain her composure but her patience was already wearing thin and it has gotten thinner when the sound of rock music inside the room gets louder.

 

She took the room key in the kitchen to open the locked room and she opened it with a loud bang. She was greeted by darkness so she the lights. What triggered the old lady the most was the sight she had seen. She saw potato chips junk littered everywhere and a wrapped up cocoon on the bed.

 

“KIM TAEYEON! GET YOUR OUTTA THAT ROOM OR I’M GONNA BREAK THE STEREO!”  The old lady yelled as she turned off the loud music on the stereo.

 

The person wrapped up inside the sheets uttered something but it wasn’t understood by the old lady.

 

“shgsdkhshdskhkd…”

 

“What did you say?”

 

“svjdbksjkeshddh…”

 

“Better talk straight kid or I’ll tear off these satanic posters inside your room.” The old lady grimaced as she saw posters of heavy metal bands inside the room.

 

 

“I DON’T LIKE PEOPLE! I DON’T LIKE LIGHT! LET ME BE INSIDE THIS ROOM FOREVER!”  The cocoon slash the girl wrapped up on a sheet whined and the old lady forcefully unwrapped the girl on the sheets. She was greeted by a girl who has this messy jet black hair and eyes closed obviously annoyed by the light. She was wearing these high black and white stripe tube socks, a gray hoodie and a denim shorts. The girl hadn’t changed her clothes since the past day when she arrived home from school.

 

“You’re too lazy to talk straight.”

 

“Mom, why don’t you just wear this braces so you could understand what I’m going through?” The girl said lazily as she slowly sit up on her bed

 

“That braces is for your own good. You better get your outta here and prep up or I’ll beat your ears down.” The old lady warned

 

“Yes, mom.” The girl answered in a deflated manner as she grumpily walked to the bathroom

 

“I’ll meet you in fifteen downstairs!” the old lady said but the girl already shut the bathroom door.

 

‘Kids these days.’ The old lady shook her head and went out of the room

 

---

The girl didn’t bother to turn on the light as she showered. She enjoyed the dim light of the candles she lit and the scent of roses it emitted.

 

‘Why do I have to meet people that wouldn’t even care if I exist or not?’ The girl thought as she looked herself in the mirror. She saw her yesterday’s eyeliner wearing off. It almost looked like bags under her eyes but she couldn’t care less. She just drew it thicker. She wore her favorite baggy grey Velvet Underground shirt and a short.

 

She searched her JBL headphone on her untidy room and saw it on her fish bowl. She saw her gold fish named ‘Blondie’ swirling around it.

 

“How the did it got here?” Taeyeon said in wonder as she took her headphones on the water and wiped it with her bed sheets and went out of her room.

 

‘This is going to be a long day.’ The girl muttered to herself as she put her headphones on and played Grimes’ Kill V. Maim on her iPod and she tried to jam on the song

 

‘I got in a fight but they don't know me cause I'm only a man and I do what I can ♫ ‘

 

Suddenly, she felt a pain on her splinter. ‘Oh, this braces.’ She groaned and pressed nex

Chapter 52: Ang Ganda! Sobrang meaningful ng story! 🥹
I like the way how you tackle a sensitive topic like this. No judgements. Understanding and acceptance ...🥹
This is my favorite line "Who knew that her dreams could wake her life up".
Lastly, I like the song Almost, it fits their love story (when they haven't found each other yet!).

Her reaction is so funny, waking up like that, with that someone... 🤣
Having a glimpse of the future, and have something to look forward to... I like that...
