September 16, 20XX-Tuesday

I had an awful day.

My dad woke up drunk.

He usually drank at night but now I guess it wasn't enough for him.

That only made things worse for me.

I rubbed my arm as I made my way back from the station, soaking in the rain.

I could take the bus...but then I won't have enough money for a meal.

A tear slid down my cheek as I grew frustrated.

Why do I even have to make such a choice?

I tried to blink away the tears so that people wouldn't notice I was crying.

As I looked up, I saw Taehyung.

He's smiling.

It was enough to lift my mood a little.

He stopped in front of me and tilted his head.

"Do you have a band-aid?"

Oh no, is he okay?

I nodded my head and started to take off my backpack, but he stopped me.

Confused, I looked at him.

He leaned in close, trying not to laugh.

"Because I scraped my knee falling for you."

With a small giggle, he brushed past me.

Smiling, I turned back to look at him.

He gave me a wide smile in return.

Today wasn't so bad after all.
