Home Sweet Home

The day of my graduation came…

I don’t want to admit it but I’m so jealous of my schoolmates… They were with their family and friends… taking pictures… congratulating each other… really enjoying the moment… while me, I was all alone. Self-pitying myself, I decided to visit my parents’ grave after the ceremony.

“Eomma… Appa… look what I have in my hand.” I said showing the diploma I received as if they were actually in front of me and alive. “Can you see it? At last I graduated~ Eomma, Appa… I miss you… I miss you both so much.” The accumulated pain in my heart started my eyes to ooze tears. I can’t see clearly with the tears leaking out of my eyes, the pain is excruciating. “Appa, is this how you felt? It really hurts…” I said thudding my chest. “Appa, why? I still don’t understand… I’m still here. Why do you have to do that? It’s so lonely… I don’t know if I could go on.” The image of the guy I met at the Han River suddenly flashback in my mind. It so crazy, I was crying so hard and with that recollection of how that face look at me made a smile on my lips. “Did you send that angel for me? I was so absurd, I haven’t asked for his name.” I sighed in regret. “I promise him I’ll live a life… and I guess I really should… Appa, Eomma, I swear to you I’m gonna keep moving on. I’ll be strong… you’ll be proud of me... you’ll see.” I said again with the sudden change of mood.

My day off at work, just like what Choi ahjussi promised we went to his friend who has this rooftop house for rent. It was an ordinary small house in a rooftop with a low and wide table out side. (If you ever watched Rooftop Prince, it looks like Park Ha’s house before it was renovated to a penthouse). Even though it was small, with a little repairing, it would look cozy and comfortable. And with the help of ahjussi, I got to rent the house for a cheaper price. I’m so excited moving my things there and decorate it to my likings.

(The place looks somewha like this ^-^ )
