Chapter 1: Once again, back again
A melody that calls out to us
Every day felt like it was the same thing over and over again, like a routine, each passing day seemed to be nothing but a copy of the previous one. Ever since I moved to a flat to live closer to my university, I felt like life had started to become dull and boring. When did I become like this though? This cold…was I even cold? I didn’t know at that moment, all of that monotony ever since graduating from high school had me wondering about my behavior.
Suddenly, my thoughts were cut off by my phone ringing, I checked the phone screen and it happened to be a friend of mine who asked me if I could go to the CD store with her, or more like, she was waiting for me there. There was nothing else to do at the moment and instead of being bored at home, I can get bored outside, it's less boring if it even makes sense. So after making up my mind I told her to wait for me a little longer and that I was on my way. The mall wasn’t that far, luckily, so I got to the CD store real quick.
‘’Hey! It didn’t take you that long to arrive!’’ she said with a grin on her face as soon as she saw me standing by the doorway.
‘’Yeah, it wasn’t that far from where I was actually’’ I said as I took a step inside, ‘’But why the CD store out of all places?’’
‘’Umm..you didn’t know?’’
‘’Know what?’’ I asked curiously.
‘’My favourite group is making a comeback and the album was just recently released’’
‘’Oh…’’ I slowly got to say ‘’ Really? Well go get their CD already! I’ll wait here…’’ I said as I started pushing her towards the shelves where the CDs were, ‘’Don’t call me until you need me, you know I can’t stand seeing that group!’’
‘’That’s sooo mean!’’
‘’Yeah..whatever!’ I like F.T Island better anyway!’’ I told her as I walked somewhere else around the store, just glancing at the cds since I didn’t plan to buy anything that day.
‘’How can I like them… I just can’t…’’ I said as low as I could so no one would think that I was crazy for talking to myself “…how can I not like them?... I’m just trying to fool myself… I’m just lying…’’ at least, that’s what my mind told me at that moment, probably, it was not far from the truth, it's just like those love-hate relationships? Have you ever been in one? If so, then you might know how it feels.
‘’Off to listen to Ear fun! Seriously, how can you not like Hey you and CNBlue? ‘’ my friend asked as she suddenly appeared from behind..
‘’I’m telling you I just don’t! I just can't! Geez...’’
We just went to eat something and once we were done, each of us headed back to our places, ‘’Beautiful… beautiful… beautiful one day’’ I said slowly as I walked past another CD store. ‘’Sigh… I can’t really escape from those two…can I? They are always around’’ I looked at the promotional poster and looked down to the floor.
I decided to just do what mmy heart told me to, enter that store, upon entering the place I just went and grabbed the latest CD they had released and went to the cashier ‘’This Ear fun CD by CNblue please, if you still have the poster… it would be great’’
It looked like I didn’t understand anything, it was more like a quick reflex, I didn’t
