Today is the second last day mom's on her business trip I guess? Well, I don't know enough because I already told you we're not close and barely talks to each other.

And I almost forgot today is Mother's Day. How should I send her a Mother's Day message?

Seol Na : Hello mum. How are you doing there? I just wanted to tell you happy mother's day! I wish you always healthy and had a long life ;)

I sent it.

But there's no message from mum. Shouldn't she'd be free now? I mean their meeting was two days ago. And even mum told me last night that she's free today.

I waited for almost an hour and there's still no message from mum. I started to think bad things about mum. No, Seol Na. No. Mum's okay.

I know that we're not close but still, I care for her so much and I knew she cared about me too.

If it's a prank, don't you think an hour is too much? And we're not that close to joke around.

Then, I got a call from an unknown number but yeah, still need to answer.

" Who's this? "

" I'm your mother's friend. "

" Oh! Anneonghaseyo. Can you tell my mother that I sent her a message? She's not replying and I'm worried "

And there's a long silence.

.....

" I wish I can tell her but- but- "

" But? "

" I'm sorry to say this but... She passed away. She involved in an accident last night at about 12 AM "

What the-

My mum. My mother... passed away?!

I quickly ended the called with mum's friend. I wouldn't care if I was rude to end it like that.

My heart sanked deeply. How can she left me like this? How can I live alone? I'm still young to get through this.

I regretted for not being close to my mum. How can this happen?!

MUUUUUUM. What can I do now? I don't have anyone to cheer me up in the house now.

And the first person I think who needs to know about this is... Jaemin. I quickly dialed his number on my phone. Please Jaemin, answer the call.

" Hey babygirl, what's up? "

" J-Jaemin, can you c-come to my house? "

" Seol Na ? Are you crying? Wait there. I'm coming. "

And he ended the call.

I waiting here for Jaemin while crying badly. I wish I could stop crying but tears won't stop falling.

I keep wiping and wiping my face which is now wet but tears just went down my cheeks.

Just then, the doorbell rang. I ran downstairs and went to open the door. It was Jaemin.

I quickly pull him inside for a hug. I really need some comfort right now. The news about mum really hurts me deep inside.

" Seol Na. Why are you crying?! "

" My mum "

" What's wrong with your mum? "

" She passed away in an accident " I said as tears continue to fall. Blood tears would probably went down my cheeks right now. Nah, Just joking.

Jaemin didn't say a thing and continued to hug me while comforting me.

" Shhh, you're fine now. You have me by your side. Please stop crying Seol Na. It hurts to see you crying so much right now. "

I tried but tears won't stop. Jaemin asked me to sit down cause yeah, we're tired of standing.

He hugged me while sitting on the sofa. I felt very safe right now. But there's still something that worries me.

Where would I stay now? It's not like I can stay in this house alone.

Why?

Firstly, this house is huge for me.
Secondly, this house is sometimes spoooo~ky
Thirdly, I'm sick of being alone.

Jaemin just hugged me while patting my back.

" Jaemin, where would I stay now? I'm afraid to live in this house alone. "

" How about you stay at my house ? Don't worry, my family is very nice and helpful. They'll help you "

Jaemin asked me to pack my things and I packed just a few clothes. I can just come back home and take more clothes if this isn't enough.

I packed my valuable things and left the house with Jaemin. Not to forget I locked the door. Taking the keys safely in my bagpack.

I guess I chilled down a bit. Jaemin still comforting me while walking until we reached his house.

Geez, his house is huge.

" Anneonghaseyo, mum!  I'm back with my girlfriend "

" Yah! What if she's mad to know you have a girlfriend? Especially someone like me " I whispered to his ears.

" Don't worry. Mum knew about it so she's fine. My father's okay with it too. Besides, what's wrong with you? You're just perfect " He replied while laughing a bit.

Then his mum opened the door.

" Hello there! Are you Seol Na? Come in!  " His mum greeted me with a large smile.

I guess everyone in his family has a nice smile. It's genetic then.

" Seol Na, you can go to the room on the middle. I'm going to talk with Jaemin about what brings you here. "

" Gomawo aunty "

She nodded with her huge smile again.

I grabbed my things and went to the room. Heol, the room is HUUUU~GE. Well, it's huge because I'm small.

I sat on the bed while looking at a picture of my family.

Dad left me. Mum left me. I hope no one leaves me after this. I had enough of people leaving me. Stay strong dearself.

I thought as tears bursted out.
