Goodbye.
Finding the Missing PiecesMiyoung
For the past few weeks, I haven't been coming to school. To be honest, I really don't know why.
I don't know why I'm like this either.
What happened to me?
I lost my best friend, my cheerfulness... Why am I so cold hearted and weak now?
It's only 8:15pm, what to do; what to do.
I hugged my pillow tightly and stared out the window of my room.
Slowly, a bit of white flakes came falling down from the sky, my eyes soon widened when I realized that it was snowing.
How beautiful.
I put on a thick jacket and ran out of the house in amazement.
Finally, there's a reason for me to smile.
I spun around in circles a couple of times and flopped my body onto the snow covered floor. Snow flakes fell onto my forehead as I looked up at the sky.
Mom, are you up there watching me right now?
I pulled myself off of the ground and a fake smile appeared on my face.
I'm sure she doesn't want to see me sad all of the time.
My feet took a couple of steps forward and stopped when I saw a poster of a missing dog stapled onto a pole.
I analyzed it for a bit and continued walking.
The last time I saw the snow was when my mom passed away.
It sounds familiar doesn't it?
Donghae shares the same pain that I do but yet, we're so different.
I remember that day so clear.
Sometimes, I blame myself for her death. Why was I playing around in the streets in the first place?
I walked pass many homes and watched as little children screamed in excitement because of the snow.
Kids must love the snow.
I know I did when I was younger.
A slight smile appeared on my face.
As I walked a couple of more blocks up, a shadow of a figure stood in the middle of the street ahead.
I squinted my eyes to see who it was but I couldn't make it out.
I quickly walked forward and my eyes widened when I saw a familiar looking little girl standing around in the middle of the street.
"She looks so familiar," I mumbled to myself.
I continued walking, but the little girl worried me.
Why was she playing in the streets at this time of day?
I stopped at where I was and slowly walked back to her.
"Hey!" I yelled out across the street from her.
She continued standing there, as if she didn't even hear me.
"Hey!" I yelled once more.
But yet she couldn't hear me.
"Hey--"
She finally noticed me and a smile appeared on her face.
Her smile reminded me of someone.
"What are you--"
All of a sudden, a car appeared out of no where and was approaching her.
My eyes widened.
Without any hesitation, I ran to her and pushed her out of the way.
But as I did, I realized that she wasn't even there.
Was I just imagining it?
Was that little girl me?
Before I could even get my mind straight, a real car was approaching me.
My body just wouldn't move.
Come on. Come on. Come on.
My memory blanked out right there and then.
----------------
The only things that ran through my mind were the memories of Lee Donghae.
The memories of us becoming phone buddies, how he poured my kimchi all over me; humiliating me, how easily his eyes could pierce right through me, how he slowly broke my heart leaving me weak and fragile.
All of our memories hit me like a force.
Darkness suddenly surrounded me. I looked around but no one was there, there were no trees, no sun, but a bright light shining above me.
Reach for the light.
My hands reached up and tried to grab onto the mysterious light but it slowly began to fade.
I fell to my knees and cried.
Where am I?
"Please remember me. Find the missing pieces, Miyoung"
Donghae? Is that you?
What's going on? All of a sudden, I collapsed and my memory stopped from there.
