the twist

Erstwhile

"Hanae, go open the door! Your dad is back." Her mother assigned her. She did as told.

It made her happy to see her both of her parents at the same time, it's not always that she had this chance. Ever since she was born, her dad had been going back and forth from Jeonju to Seoul as he worked  in Seoul and here in Jeonju live Hanae and her mother. Sometimes, her brothers visit.

But at the same time, here comes the pressure. 

"So how's it going for your studies, future doctor?" "Well, it's fine." She cooes off to her room to finish her novel.

"Hey Hanae, you are supposed to be studying instead of reading the novel if you wanna be like your cuz J--" "Juhyeon. Who studied in Ireland and become a surgeon." Hanae sternly answered. "Good that you know."

It's goddamn 4pm in the evening. I just got back from school and there's calculus class at 8pm so can you just pipe the down. And oh, I don't even want to be a surgeon. 

She replied with nothing but a word of agreement and had her nose in biology textbook.

Her father stayed in Jeju for about a week then back in Seoul for a month. This process repeats itself for 18 years and counting. 

While her father is at home, her mother would've gave him extra attention, although Mrs Seo eyes looked droopy from the extra labour she had to do to feed her family, she'd still do anything for her husband. For Hanae, her dad seems like a douchebag who depends his life onto his wife because he spent all his money on who knows work on the other side of Korea.

She can't hardly wait for her father to be at work again.

It was the 3rd week of school and Hanae is suffocating, gasping for air already. Homeworks has doubled compared to last year. Extra class are every day, even on weekends. Night class as well. Last year seemed so far from reality where life was easier and stress-free.

"Kring!" The school bell rang, an indicator for the first period of lesson has started. 

"Hello class, today I am going to give out a project for you guys, an interesting one." Stated Mrs Kim Sunhee, our History teacher

The whole class was sighing in no time at all. Monthly exam in a week, homework's piling, classes are 24/7, now school project?

Hanae silently thought she should've jump and ignore that stupid Sehun's words. If she did, she wouldn't have to deal with all these shiz.

"Calm down, guys. This project is due at the end of the year."

"Õ thank you lord! I'm having constipation just by the thought of finishing the project."
