Winter 2014 : Why It's So Cold Outside?

I barely passed my second semester test. Pfftt it's so hard to study while I have to work part time. I need to take extra job because I don't want my father to worry about the tuition fees. I call him once a week he lives alone after my mother passed away 3 years ago and he looks tough about it but I saw him cried. I have plan to take more job this semester break and also I need to move from the dorm it's too expensive lives in here. Mina, Riu and Hazel will keep staying in the dorm because they need to focus on their study besides they have enough money to pay for it. I'm sad to leave them.

It's early morning Riu coming after her early morning jogging; "Hey Rach, tell me if you need a ride. You have so many stuffs to move"

"Thank you I will call you if I need a help"

"Have you found a new place?"

"ah yes it's a quiet nice but it will takes 30 minutes to come here"

"Daniel will help you to move, right?"

"I don't know, I will ask him later he seems busy with the practice"

Hazel suddenly woke up: "Right tomorrow is the campus day event, my department also asked me to join their performance" she said with a weird face.

"Really?? what kind of performance your department prepare? Is it debate? hahahaha" Mina also come to join this conversesion.

"I don't even know and do not want to know" Hazel

"I'm gonna miss your guys" I said to them.

"You have to visit us if you not we will find and haunt you" Mina said.

"hahahaa yes I will I don't want to be haunt". I answer

🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶 my phone is ringing it's Daniel:

"Good morning~~~ do you sleep well?"

"Morning, yep. How bout' you?" he answer

"Not really because I barely survive this exam so I had a nightmare"

"Haha don't be sad. I have a practice today maybe a whole day. What will you do?"

"hmm I think I will take a part time job at noon until evening" (actually I have to move today)

"Okay, don't be tired yourself. I will call you if I can slip one or two hours"

"Don't worry"

"You will come to the event tomorrow, right? I want to show you my performance"

"Of course, I will come over but I guess you'll be perform excellent"

"And I want you to see it Rachel" in his soothing voice

"I promise I will come"

"Great, see you then and.....I miss you" He hung up

(I do missed you Daniel almost one week we didn't see each other because I have to prepare the exam).

"So Riu I think I need your help to move" with my begging face.

"How about Daniel? He's not gonna help you?"

"He needs to practice a whole day and I don't want to bother him about this. I'm sorry"

"It's okay Rach, we will help you" Hazel said.

"Don't worry I also will help you" Mina said.

"Thank you guys"

"Hey don't mention it, that's what friends are for, right?" Riu. I'm really bless to have them.

My new place is so small but it's cozy. The important thing is I don't need to give the full deposit which make me relieve. Mina, Riu and Hazel were back to the dorm in the evening. I have to tidy up my room and it feels empty without them.

🎼🎵🎶🎵🎼 my phone ringing who's calling me at this time? unknown number?

"Hello. Is this Rachel Kim?"

"Yes, I am Rachel"

"We are calling from S Hospital your father was fainted in his workplace, could you come here?"

"YES, I will come right now" I change my clothes and go as fast as I can. Oh my God please help my father, what happen to him?

I took a taxi to go there and found out that my father faint due to the mild stroke. He barely can move his right hand and doctor said he needs to monitor him for whole night and later he also need physiotherapy so he could move his hand. I have to stay with him tonight.

It's 7am now, I couldn't sleep last night. It's relieve that my father didn't have any pain but I need to stay beside him. Sorry Daniel I think I can't see your performance today. I will send him a message or should I call him? He might be busy?

"Good morning Rachel" The Doctor come to check my father.

"Good morning Doctor, how is my father?"

" We will need to examine your father today"

"Alright Doc, I will be here to accompany him"

Time passes by it's almost evening aah right I forgot to send Daniel a message:

Hi Daniel, sorry I have something came up so I can't go to see your perform. Even so I know you will showing an outstanding performance because I believe in you. Fighting!!

I've got reply immediately from him, but when I want to open:

"Rachel where am I?" my father woke up

"We are in hospital dad, you fainted yesterday"

"Why I can't move my right hand?"

"Please wait dad and let me call the doctor first"

The doctor finally can rest assured my father that he will can move his right hand later after the therapy. Finally he can eat his dinner and also I need to settle the administration. It's really expensive 2 million won?? I only have 1 million and I keep it to pay my next semester credit.. sigh but the important thing is now. Oh right? I forgot to read Daniel message:

"What happened?"

"Where are you?"

"Can I call you?"

"You had promise me to see my performance"

"Rachel, what's wrong with you???"

"You really disappoint me this time"

Oh no he sent me a lot of messages and I have missed his call. What should I reply to him? Should I reply now? but it's almost 1am. He must be sleep.

I can watch his performance in our college site.

Woowww he really cool as always, the crowds respond so well and a lot of positives comments about him. I should congratulate him later. Somehow tonight is so cold and I'm sitting here without realize my tears falling apart and I reply to his text:

"I'm sorry".
