"Omma, Appa, look what I made at school today" I say proudly, showing off the picture I drew in art class. "That look amazing Yerin! Omma and Appa are proud of you" My two loving parents say in unison. A wide smile crosses my face, causing my eyes to fall into two crescent moons. "Should we eat some of mummy's yummy cooking?" Appa says. "Really? Yaay!" I cheer jumping up and down. "My beautiful daughter is growing up fast" Appa says as we sit down. "I am 5" I say holding up 5 fingers. "Yes you are sweety. Tell me about your day"

"Dinner is ready" Omma calls out as she brings the side dishes to the table. Appa goes off and bring a huge steaming pot of warm kimchi soup. I fill my parent's bowls generously with soup as they set down the rest of the side dishes. "I will eat well" I say before digging in. The warm soup instantly warms my tummy and my whole body. "Beautiful as always love" Appa says while tucking a piece of Omma's dark black hair behind her ear. I smile at the sweet scene taking place in front of me. I look outside the winder and the rain is pouring down, wind knocking against the windows. I shiver at the cold weather but quickly forget about it as I continue to eat.

Suddenly the lights flick off and the background noise from the television is no longer heard.
