"C'mon let's get going if you don't wanna buy anything", Rose tried to pull Sarah out of that mobile store.

"Hey wait, look that seems pretty cute", Sarah walked near a mobile back cover. "It's so pretty, isn't it?"

Rose sighed, "Ok so you wanna buy it? Let's buy it then."

This time Rose successfully dragged her friend out of the store and made her buy that mobile cover. They've been rummaging through all the mobile stores for hours after the school ended.

Sarah just wanted to buy a new mobile cover and Rose thought buying it wouldn't be THIS time consuming so she agreed to go with her. Finally, after hours, they're going back home.

"It's really good right?" Sarah asked.

"Ofc it is Sarah. Now don't tell me you want to buy a different one?" Rose looked at her to which Sarah just frowned.

"GHOST!!"

Rose snapped her head towards the guys and yelled, "You guys better meet me at home!"

"Do you know them?" Sarah asked looking a bit stunned.

"Oh yes, they're the two pabos of my life, my best friends", Rose smiled lightly. [Pabo means fool in Korean]

As soon as Rose reached home, she plopped down on the bean bag.

"Where were you huh? It's been so long after your school gets finish. Don't you keep track of the time. What were you even doing?" Mrs. Simpson asked Rose in a bit scolding tone.

"Eomma, lemme breath for a moment first. I'll tell you everything later. I'll go and freshen up", Rose said and went straight to her room.

After freshening up she fell asleep and didn't eat her lunch as well.

"Buzzzzzz.. buzzzzzz.." her phone vibrated.

"Who's this- huh? Michael?" Rose frowned but picked up the call anyhow.

"Come out of your house. Fast!", Michael, her bestfriend said from the other side of the call.

Rose sat up baffled, "Why-"

"Beep-" Michael hung up the call.

"Seriously?" Rose said and got up lazily.

(They usually do like this T_T. Your Author's friends always disturb her sleep like this and give her sudden visits because they know your Author won't be going anywhere and will be at home. They're like my alarm, the one which wakes me up before the time of waking up.)

She tied her hair in a messy bun and washed her face with water so that it doesn't seem that she's been sleeping the whole afternoon. She checked her outfit and went out.

"Eomma, Michael is here. I'm going out", she went out and saw THEM.

"We're out here from an eternity. What the hell were you doing inside?" Alex said.

(Alex aka Bunny, it's a nickname given by me and I know he isn't fond of it yet I call him like that. He's one of my best brothers! He's always there to protect me and to guide me. Even though we studied in the same grade, he's still like my over protective elder brother.)

Tom Felton as Alex Wood

"Maybe she was in the washroom.. doing something?", Michael joked while looking at me suspiciously and then both of them started to laugh.

(Michael aka Koala aka my bestfriend! We've been bestfriends since our middle school and having him beside is always great! He was kinda introvert but your Author changed him *hair flick💁🏻‍♀️*. Such an impact I have on my friends hehe *praising herself*)

"Anyways come inside guys, let's not stand here and laugh like witches", she opened the gate for them and inside the house they go.

They started chattering about random things and Mrs. Simpson prepared some snacks for them. They enjoyed their 'trio' time after so long. They played around the living room and tried to pick Rose up.

"Man you're heavy!" Michael said trying to pull Rose off the ground.

"That's why she's Fattie Rosie", Alex said and Michael agreed with him.

"Yah! I'm not fat! From which angle do I look fat to you huh? And I'm a girl not man." Rose defended herself. [Yah means hey in Korean]

"From every angle and no you're not a girl anymore, you're a woman", Alex said and they started laughing again while Rose was sending death glares their way and pouting as well.

"See her chubby cheeks-" As soon as Michael said this, Rose started hitting his back and soon Michael was whining in pain.

"The beatings from her hands are painful bro", Michael told Alex.

"Afterall she's my sista", Alex said so that he can be saved from her beatings and smiled sheepishly.

Rose narrowed her eyes and huffed. They ate the snacks and in their playful fight also broke the door handle. They went all quiet and Rose told them to leave so both of the guys left right after that breaking incident.

They kept asking Rose through chats that was everything fine after they left and Rose was like yeah everything's okay even though it wasn't.

She had a heated argument with her parents especially with her dad but after some hours everything was calm.

"Can't I even have some fun now? Am I not worth all the comforts? Why only me? It was just a door handle afterall", Rose started talking to literally no one.

She went on the terrace and sat in a corner, babbling to herself. She was starting to overthink again. It wasn't her first or second time being like this. She has been broken too many times yet she tried to join every piece again in the hope that one day everything will be fine. Nevertheless, her life was still miserable.

She never blamed her parents neither her friends nor anyone but herself. She thought that everything's happening just because of her.

Even when she gets into an argument with her mom, her mom will be like, "Everything happened since you've born. Everything starts from you. Somehow it's always because of you."

Rose will always be like,"Seriously mom?"

She showed as if she never cares or never minds her mom's bullshit but deep down a virus of overthinking was deepening it's roots into her mind and started making her anxious, insecure and stressed all the time.

"It's always been the same, always since I was a kid", Rose scoffed sarcastically while tears were rolling down her cheeks non-stop.

"Why? Why God? Why do I need to live such a life of misery?! I don't wanna live anymore", she wiped her tears and looked at the sky which was glittering with millions of stars as it'll be winter soon, the stars were visible more clearly. She was lost into that sky until...

She heard footsteps of someone and made herself presentable as if nothing happened, as if she wasn't just thinking of dying.

"Come down now. It's already late. Have your dinner", Mrs. Simpson said.

"I don't have any appetite. I won't eat", Rose said without looking at her mom.

"You know your dad, he's always like that. Why are you skipping your meal because of him? Your health is the first priority. Come, let's eat together. I haven't eaten yet" Mrs. Simpson tried to hold her daughter's hand but she shook it off.

"I said I won't eat and that's it", Rose said.

"Who will look after you when you'll fall ill?! Will you be able to take care of yourself? Not eating like this will only make you sick and make you suffer. None of us is going to go through that pain. You know this right? Now come let's go", Mrs. Simpson took Rose with her.

This time Rose didn't oppose and just went down. She had her dinner and straightaway went to her room where her brother was already fast asleep.

She sat on her bed and was looking blankly at the floor.

She sighed, "This won't help. C'mon Rose cheer yourself up!"

She put on her earphones and listened to some upbeat songs to lighten her mood but it didn't help.

She zoned out again and started thinking of someone.

( Hello dear readers! What's up? Nothing? Okay, if you guys say so *shrugs*. Btw what do you think about Rose's life? She should have some patience and trust God right? And who is she thinking about? Someone special or just someone random?👀 Hmm... We'll know it soon till then bye~)
