[Yeoseo Island]

Yoona: Happy Birthday! We couldn't get you a cake so we bought the ingredients.
Jiyeon: Flour, eggs, confetti, and we also bought a special ingedients.
Byul: Fish sauce cake.
Yoona: Class is starting soon, let's go back.
Jiyeon: Happy Birthday, Lee Ara!

It is normal, things like this happened everyday, just a little more special since it is my 16th birthday. I could not speak up at all, may be it has become a habit.

Student: So stink...
Ara: Sorry.
Student: What did she do this time?
Ara: Ah, the fish sauce smell...

I always hate to go school, I always wanted to take off and just stay at home but it would be more noisy and annoying, I would just be vexing at other things. At the very least, school has an area where you can sit down and think for a bit. A stop station, I called it. When I first go to school, I expected many good things to happen but it turns out differently. You have to set a place for yourself, that's how it is. I always am the center for others to bully, I don't talk back and just thought it was for fun, but things just got worst and before I realize everything, the name Ara being call less than the time when I first started school.

Ara: I am home.
Mom: Divorce. Let's divorce and live our own way.
Ara: ...
Dad: Ara...
Ara: I will come back later.
Mom: Since you've heard everything, come and listen.

Dad and Mom get into quarrels quite a lot since I and eonnie started middle school. Work and love and us, that's all they quarreled about. I barely talk to my parents, or at least my Mom, because she always said she has works but it will be because of sister.

Mom: We will divorce so you will go with me.
Ara: ...
Mom: Your Dad cannot do anything to help you.
Ara: Then I am going with Dad.
Dad: Ara.
Ara: Mom said you won't be able to help me so it means I can start to learn how to help myself survive in the society.

I never stop anyone from doing things that they want or don't want because my two cents comments never get to their sense at all. I tend to lay back and let everyone decide... once it is confirmed I will come forward but it just beyond my expectation.

Ara: I will go and delivery afternoon's news.
Ayeon: Mom, I will go to my friend's house.
Ara: When are you going to be home, eonnie?
Ayeon: Eww... did you get bully again?

Jimin: She is over there!
Danbi: I heard you confessed to Kai!
Jimin: Why did you?! Can you just like him quietly?! Your news degrade him badly at school!!!

Giyeok: Oh?! KAI'S GIRL!
Kai: Stop it guys!
Ayeon: You confessed to Kai? Yah, you sure can attracted any kind of girls.
Kai: Stop it! She is not my type!
Ara: I didn't confess to him. You also think you are my type? You are wrong.
Kai: Yah!
Jimin: (Throw eggs) No shame at all.
Danbi: Get lost!!!

Ah, I cannot like anyone properly. I just give up after an unwatned accident, I give up on harboring feeling for boys. Even if I do, it will be a pain for me later on, since I am nothing but a weed in their backyard.

Ayeon: Careful when you go out. People catch on you really fast.
Ara: Dad?
Ayeon: What's wrong?
Ara: I can survive, I will definitely survive in this society with you so let's move away.
Dad: Ara.
Ara: I will comeback tonight after work. Please help me clean out my bed first.
Ayeon: Yah! What do you mean?! Mom?!

I always want to have a normal life where no one will bully me or see me as nothing. I also want to cry too, I want to laugh too. I just want thing to be simple, as much as possible.

Ara: (Breath hard) ...
Woohyun: Ara?
Ara: Saem! I will move away soon, please give me your positive energy. All of them...
Woohyun: Move? To where?
Ara: My parents divorced so I will live with my Dad. I need more energy to move on. I will become strong and when it happens please do come and see me.
Woohyun: Hhmm... I got it. But will you be ok?
Ara: I might not be able to see you again Saem... The rumors about me confessed to Kai is wrong, the one I like is Saem.
Woohyun: Thank you for your feeling but I cannot think of you more than a student...
Ara: Thank you for listening... I also hope you will become a real teacher soon.
Woohyun: Thank you Ara.

Woohyun Saem is the first person to notice me and talk to me. I always follow him since his senior days and able to be his student in his first year of teaching. I will always respect Saem so I hope Saem will also remember me. I will live and become stronger and a more successful student so Saem will notice me more, when time comes I will confess to him again.

Ara: Saem, I will grow up and become a more beautiful lady and when time comes, I hope to confess to you again in a more mature way.
Woohyun: Yes yes. I will definitely give you an answer with an appropriate confession.
Ara: (Take picture of Woohyun)
Woohyun: This kid.
Ara: With this, I will keep myself safe from guys. I will use it well, Saem.
Woohyun: Tch... Write to me often, I will reply.
Ara: Yes. I am taking off. Good bye.

Dad: You are back?
Ara: Yes.
Dad: Let's move in with your grandma after the end-of-term exam.
Ara: Yes.
Dad: I couldn't keep the promise with you and become a divorcee.
Ara: I am ok. Mom always involved in affairs so it really didn't surprise me. I am tired...

It was the happiest moment in my life that I can finally accept their divorce and let my Dad free from Mom's grasp. It will be just me, Dad and Grandma from now on. I must score a good grade on these finals to be where no one can reach me.

Woohyun: Here, your student information, I put it in order.
Ara: Thank you Saem.
Woohyun: And your mark for final and your diploma. I realized when your Dad came just now, you won't be joining us for the graduation, aren't you?
Ara: I'm sorry...
Woohyun: Well, whatever it is, congrate on graduating Middle School. Here is your gift.
Ara: Eh? A phone charm?
Woohyun: Why? Hate it? Then give it back!
Ara: No? It just the same as my gift for you, a phone charm.
Woohyun: Did you stole my idea?
Ara: Yes sir, I did.
Woohyun: Isn't this too girly? A clover leaf?
Ara: Isn't it too manly? A one piece tag?
Woohyun: Thank you. I will see you later?
Ara: Yes. Thank you for everything, Saem.

When we see each other again, I hope to see the clover phone charm on your phone. I will definitely see Saem again, if I cannot then I will come and find Saem.

Dad: Ara.
Woohyun: Hello.
Ara: Thank you, Saem.
Dad: Thank you for everything. If you have a chance, pleaze do come and visit our family store.
Woohyun: Yes. You, study okay? Don't let this first place drop.
Ara: Yes sir. If Saem cannot find me then I will go find Saem. Definitely cannot have a girlfriend until then.
Woohyun: Hhmm... What if you have a boyfriend first?
Ara: There is no way.
Woohyun: Ok, go. Your Dad is waiting.

I will start a new life in a new city.

Dad: My daughter got first place, I heard?
Ara: Yes, so please treat me something nice.
Dad: Thank you, Ara.
Ara: Why are you saying thank you all of sudden?
Dad: We always fight and ignore your feeling, and I know your Mom favors your sister over you.
Ara: Stepmom.
Dad: Yes yes. But despite that, you didn't become a rebel and grew up so well. Dad is thankful for that and probably Mom too.
Ara: I will get to see Grandma for the first time...
Dad: Talking about that... she used to be a yankee so you might want to be careful.
Ara: Yes sir.
Dad: So! I will buy you your most favorite foods today!
Ara: Do you even know?
Dad: Tonkatsu with hot steamed rice and cheese on top with sweet bread as side dish.
Ara: That's Mom's favorite!
Dad: Really?
Ara: I love bread so just buy me bread.

The breeze starts to smell different from this point... I will miss this sea smell of Yeoseo Island. Even if I leave this place, I kind of don't want my name to disappear from here, since I was born on the Yeoseo Island. I will live well.

I did post a new story... But like I said I cannot and never guarantee if this story will ever have an ending. It is a story that I wrote when I was tired and bored of university's life. I will try, notice the word "TRY", to update as much as possible and I will TRY not to make it as a chore so I can finish this story happily. 

SPOILER! JOOHEON will appear in the next chapter! 

Talking about SPOILER, MONSTA X is coming back. They are so hardworking but people over look them and so I hope if you read this message, I don't say "stan Monsta X" but "DO STAN MONSTA X." We, Monbebe and other lovely fandoms also wish Monsta X to harvest their 1st win with this comeback, even if it is only 1 or 2 trophies, we will appreciate it as much as the Nation's Treasure.
