"Wait" I stopped her. "I need you to give me some information"

"About what?" she said with confusion on her face.

"You need to tell me what has been happening since yesterday" I said.

"Nothing really, your father is on a business trip but he will be back tonight" she said.

"What about Dongbae and sookyung?" I asked.

"They have been going out a lot since yesterday so they aren't around right now" she said trying to figure out why i asked her. "Ok, Thank you".

Well now that I know that is not a problem, I sneakily move around the house until I find myself at the kitchen. The kitchen island table is filled with different breakfast of small portions, It reminds me of something.

Th only good time of my life, when I'd wake up in the morning to the sweet smell of breakfast made by my mum. My mum never liked the thought of having a chef so she always cooked meals for Dad and I with her own hands and I'd help her at times. Sometimes we'd sing and dance to our favorite song, My eyes started to sting.

If someone had told me that those good times would not last, I'd never believe them, But now I know that you never know what life has in store for you.

I was brought back to my senses by the sound of the front door closing, They're back. I make a quick but silent move into our biggest kitchen cabinet, this is where my small, malnourished body comes in handy. I hear footsteps getting closer and closer to the cabinet I'm in and my heart races when they stop right in front of it.

"That was amazing" I heard my step...Dongbae's voice say. "We should have killed that thing a long time ago" Sookyung said with excitement.

Maybe they're talking about a rat or a cockroach.

"Life has been better ever since got rid of Jaechul".

Nope, they are talking about me.

"Don't you think we should throw a party". "That is the best idea you've had, mum". she laughs. "To celebrate the death of Jaechul". Did I really die?. I mean I know my killers just said it and I should believe them but it's not such an easy news to take in. If I did die, how am I still so alive and how did I end up in my room yesterday.

"Why don't we go and get things ready for our party tonight". They finally left the kitchen and I make a quick sneak out of the kitchen cabinet and back to my room.

I lay in my bed and wonder why life keeps doing this to me, First my mum died now I died and I have no idea what is going on. Maybe I'm a ghost but if I am how could our maid see me, maybe she's a ghost too. Or this could be the afterlife, just like the real world but if it is the afterlife how come Dongbae and Sookyung are still talking about my death. That means they are still alive.
