7 months
Living hell
Let's the main part
I look at the photo in my hand, tracing it with my fingers, a familiar ache tingling away.
I don't even know why I kept it in the first place. It's been seven months since we broke up so it brings nothing but bad memories and a bitter taste in my mouth.
Perhaps, I keep it to remind myself to be careful who I trust. yunjin was someone I thought I could trust with my life.
she was someone I gave my everything to but she betrayed that trust.
she replaced me as easily as it is to breathe. she found someone prettier, someone smarter,
Richer someone who is good enough for her because clearly I wasn't. I was never part of the rich crowd. On the contrary,
I barely remember a day where my family didn't struggle financially. With her I had a home which always felt warm and safe.
Now, I live in an apartment that is about to fall down. It barely has any light and it's always cold.
One of the windows had gotten broken because of a storm and I never got around to fixing it.
There are patches in the wall where the wall paper is getting torn. The bed is old and has springs coming out.
The dresser is hobbled, one foot of it broken. The geezer doesn't work, resulting in me having to have cold showers.
There is mold in the ceiling since it is always leaking water when it rains, like today.
I frown as I open the drawer and place the photo there. I look up at the ceiling which is dripping steadily,
Creating a rhythm of drip-drop-drip-drip-drop. I sigh as I grab the almost full bucket.
I take it to the bathroom, empty it and take it back in place. I shiver, feeling the cold air running down my back but I try to ignore it.
Taehyung
I really need to fix that window.
I murmur to myself, placing the bucket under the leak just as one drop enters my back, making me shiver.
I go back to the bathroom and look at the mirror which actually has a crack in it.
They say that if you break a mirror, it means seven years of bad luck but the mirror was already broken.
I wonder if I still carry that bad luck or maybe this place does. Nothing, I ever do seems to work in here.
I look at my reflection - pale skin, a shade of dark circles under my eyes from tiredness.
I'm not one for my makeup but I do some concealer to hide those marks. I squeeze the last bit of my tube, grumbling under my breath.
Just another thing I have to add to the to-buy list - I think to myself. I rub it in under my eyes and nod to myself, satisfied.
I wash my hands and dry them off as I head back outside of the bathroom.
