(And) Leaving Without Them
If Someone Believed MeJiyong's eyes opened to sunlight. He rolled over in between his sheets and reached for his cell phone, 10:47 the screen read. He jumped a bit, feeling the urgency of being late, but then he remembered, today's a free day.
He set his phone down and buried his head in his pillow again. After a few minutes, he turned over, stretched, and, in one movement, stood up, heading to the bathroom.
Jiyong saw familiar locks of platinum blonde hair hanging off the edge of his sofa, their owner hidden by it's back. The TV was on to MTV, one of the channels Jieun watched the most.
Suddenly, as if sensing his presence, her head popped up above the barrier, a smile planted firmly on her face.
