Description
In which Kim Yun goes through a life-changing event after encountering Kim Jongin, quite literally. But the thing is, Yun doesn't think that it's going to change her life at all.

For some reason, out of all the romance songs I could think of, I felt like this one was the one that related to the story the most, somehow.
[A/N]: so, at 1am this friday i was suddenly distraught with the thought that, omg, lackadaisies-ssi, you've never been able to write a drabble! like or, a short fic that's at least less than 2k words. so i googled some otp/au prompts and came across this prompt (from here):
Somehow, a character or characters glimpse what their life may have been like if one pivotal event had not happened, or had happened differently. (Examples: Harry Potter’s parents didn’t die, Bilbo Baggins never found the Ring, Anakin Skywalker never met Padme Amidala, etc.)
Your choice if:
- Your character could be able to see this alternate universe, but not interact with it
- Your character could be able to “live” in this alternate universe for a while
- Changing this event either improves the current situation or makes it worse
thought the prompt was beautiful. made up a short story that could capture that prompt in a concise way.
I SWEAR THIS STORY WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SHORT IN MY HEAD GODDAMN, BUT AS I WAS WRITING IT JUST GREW INTO THIS MONSTROSITY (ok exaggeration, it's only like 7k-ish), AND I HATE MYSELF BUT I WROTE IT ALREADY SO. YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO READ IT. IT'S STILL A ONESHOT, SO DON'T WORRY. I'M SORRY AND I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS.
P.S: i keep telling myself to stop writing about sad girls, or sad, depressed ocs, but i guess it's my thing. i'm just... a sad person. yun isn't necessarily a sad girl, here, but, uh. i'm sorry if you're tired of reading angsty ocs from me, bc yun isn't going be to be an exception on the angsty part. but please do give her some love if you end up reading this.
much love,
lackadaisies.
