Hello

Let me introduce myself My name is Nani, I'm Asian Pacific Islander. I'm 21 yrs old and I live in the US, in one of the many cities located in Southern California.

I have reddish brown-black hair, not what you think tho. I had dyed the right side of my hair sapphire black, while the left side is a brown with burgundy highlights. I tried copying a kpop idol (Remember when Jungkook did it, it came out so good)

I'm not your normal adult female, I can dance, write. I can listen to music but there is one thing missing I can't speak or laugh or make a sort of noise. Its been like this ever since I was little, I've gone to doctors and specialist but no one knows why I can't speak.

It's been a major disadvantage growing up tho, I got picked on all the time. My parents hated the fact I couldn't speak, so in order for me to get thru the 4 walls of hell known as school.

My parents put me in martial arts, I loved it so much that I stayed doing it as I got older. I have 1 older sibling, my brother Andrew is the sweetest person ever.

He will fuck you up if you mess with me like I remember one time after school, he came and beat up these boys who thought it would funny to pick on the mute girl.

Growing up was so hard, I had many problems. Even with the amount of self-defense and martial arts, I knew I still got scared. If I could have anything in this world it would be to speak to sing, to laugh or make noise.

While growing up my dad was a very busy businessman, we would have to move a lot that the downfall of his job. Before moving to the US in 2017 we were living in Seoul, I loved the language and the culture is so wonderful and beautiful and omg the food is awesome.

I had to learn it even though, I couldn't speak it. There was a very popular Korean Kpop Group by the name of BTS, I never expected to hear the most beautiful music out of their mouths.

After school I would run to the music store to listen to their music, I was always there when the owner asked me to help out sometimes. The reason for that was, I caught a guy stealing and one thing led to another and well now I work here 6 days a week.

The song that helped me most was Spring Day and Save Me, I was so into them that after school and work I would dance to their choreography outside the music store. I had lots of people compliment my dancing, they soon found out I couldn't talk.

That being said, they thought they could take advantage of me, I soon had to show them that me not being able to speak wasn't a hindrance. At times I was glad I couldn't speak, the rest of the time though I would cry.

I'd cry because I couldn't show my appreciation to the boys that helped me in my darkest times. I heard from the shows and the radio, that they will be back in Seoul at the end of summer.

I was super happy and excited, that I'd be lucky to show them my gratefulness. But then the thought soon vanished, how will I tell them? I sighed in defeat because I had no clue what to do.

It soon came to the day of them coming back, I had to work. So just because I was feeling down, I danced with a few of my friends that loved to dance and loved BTS too. We decided to dance blood sweat & tears. (The girl in the pink hair is Nani)

We were at the part where it was V Oppa's part, I was trying my hardest not to stop. Right when the chorus hits, a big bus pulls up to the curb. A few guys get off just to watch, I see a guy that looks like Taehyung Oppa I smile, I bow and continue to dance. The song is finished, I took that as my cue to go back to work.

The guy claps his hands and tells everyone a good job, I wave to my friends but when they ask me questions. My eyes widen in horror, I throw my basketball at my friend to talk to them for me. She tells them, That I can't talk but I am ARMY, I slap her because she wasn't supposed to say that part.

I facepalm and show them my phone, I look at the time and have her tell them I have work. I can't play anymore, I hope to see them in the future.
I made up my mind, to find a way to talk to them.

Things couldn't be any better right? When I got home, I couldn't be more wrong. We were moving, how fucked up is that.
