Sven's POV

A dark and gray atmosphere.
The sunlight was not too hot, rather warm. The cold wind blowed gently making the leaves of the tree wither away. It was a cloudy morning.

I, as would do everyday, was roaming down through the streets of Seoul, discovering different types of lives around me.

A bird on the nest flew away, leaving her kids, to search for food.

The ants crawled in a straight row carrying food on their tiny backs.

It was pretty. Kind of.

A small child came running in his small steps from my behind and hugs a woman tightly, “Eommaa! ^^” and they both laughed.
It was so sweet, it placed a soft smile on my face, and it was natural.

A gentle breeze blowed, making a leaf of a big tree fall on my shoulder.

I realized, I really love little things.

My hand was just going to pick it up, but it was again carried away by the breeze.
I remembered, Things are never going to be as I expect anyway.

It flew and flew, and landed near a chair in the park.

A girl maybe in her 18s was sitting there. 

In such a cheerful and pretty morning, She seemed a piece of darkness.

Tears were flowing down the girl's cheeks. She was sobbing and sniffing.

I didn't know what happened.
Nonetheless, I decided to go on my way, unless a voice echoed throughout my mind,

‘‘Good boys don't leave anyone crying. Go, make her happy and I'll give you a treat.”

Throughout all these days, I couldn't avoid that voice. Thus, I couldn't do anything but go to her and stop her crying.

I did so, I moved forward to her and sat beside.

If you people would drink water a hundred times a day for a clear skin, why to waste it then?”

But she said nothing. She kept on crying.
What happened?” I asked again.

“Who are you?”

“That doesn't matter. I just want to know what made you cry in such a cheerful atmosphere.”

“You don't have to waste your time here. So please get on your way, Sir.”

“But I don't even have any precious thing to waste my time on. I would rather waste it here.

Anyway, I don't like people shedding tears. More than that, I can't just leave someone crying on while I move on my way.
So please tell me, I'll try to solve it if I can.”

She drove her head away, nonchalantly. But soon says,

My parents- They won't let me be what I want to be.
Just imagine a dream that you've dreamt since your childhood days, But knowing that there's no hope for it to get fulfilled when you grow up.
They'd never understand me.
-be a doctor or a businesswoman. You'd earn good.- That's what they'd say.”

And as she completes her words,
      it leads to an utter silence.

Meanwhile, The clouds made a crackling noise, that leads to raining heavily.
Neither of the two persons had anything to save themselves from it.

Well, don't worry for now. Go to your house. Your parents would be worrying for you.”

“I don't care. I'd rather stay here and get sick than to go back to that hell and get scolded and cry again.”

And she sat there just the same.
He felt bad about her.

As you wish.
Well, What do you want to be by the way?”

“I had been in dancing since when I was so young. After all, It's the only thing I'm very efficient in.
So I want to be an Idol, A kpop Idol. I'm not good at studies, so I can only think this as my future.”

“Hmm, Kpop idol..”
“You mean like those ‘I need u Gurrrll’ boys?”

And just as he begins singing, She bursts into laughter.

Yeah. Like them.”

Her smile was so peaceful.


Oh. You'll be so famous then. People will cheer for you and you'll get a lot of money. I see.”

“Exactly. But my parents won't understand.”

And she again losts into a deep thought.

With a slight sigh, he smiled. Consoling her, he said,

You're lucky enough to have a dream.
Atleast you have a dream to rely upon and survive for.
I have nothing. I'm just a bunch of bones covered with a nice thick skin. My cells are the only one who cares for me the most in this world.”
“That's why, You should work for that. You know, Dreams taken into actions becomes reality.”

“I know. But as I said, I'm just in a great dilemma. I can't disobey my parents.
No matter how much I get scolded by them everyday, but still, I love them.”

“That's the only solution then.”

“What?”

“That you'll have to choose.
Choose between your parents and your dream. ”

“Ah seriously- you're making me more sad now-” 

He patted her back gently.

Wait, don't start again.
I've just thought of a solution.
But it demands a condition then.”

And Her eyes brightened with the rays of hope.

Woah really! What's it?”

“Umm well.
You'll have to lie.”
