Chapter 3 Chapter 3

It's almost 2 years.

It's been that long since I have worked here in Korea. In just a few months I will have my vacation and can finally go back home.

It's been tough but I guess working here is better since the pay is high.

I can provide for them better and start being a good daughter which I haven't been doing since who knows when.

A tap on my shoulder shakes me to reality.

"Yah, what are you thinking so hard you haven't even drank your milk. It's gonna get cold you know."

"Ahh. I didn't realized."

I smiled at her and drank my milk.

"How silly."

Then she sat beside me on our shared couch in the living room.

"Yeah. How silly of me. THANKS FOR REMINDING ME EOMMA." I cheekily told her.

SLAP.

"Yahh, that hurt!!! My poor arm. You could be brutal sometimes."

"Serves you right."

After that we both laughed like idiots.

"Seriously. If it weren't for you, I don't think I could survive working here."

"Awww... I didn't know you love so much Gel. But no homo though."

"Yakkkkk!!!! (Ewww!!!) Like I could ever fall for you!! Besides I already found my soulmate and his patiently waiting for me in the Philippines."

Silence.

She averted her eyes at me and looked down.

"I, uh, ate (older sister), I didn't mean to brag, I'm so-"

I patted her head lightly.

"It's okay Gel. You don't need to get so worked up and apologize all the time whenever you mentioned him. I'm actually happy for you."

She looked up at me. Then i gave her a smile.

"But ate, aren't you gonna look for your soulmate? His probably here somewhere and maybe his looking for you too."

"No Gel. I won't." I firmly said to her and averted my eyes.

Standing up I said to her, "Let's go to sleep. It's late."

"Aren't you curious though? How far he is to you? If you could only-"

"Gel. I'm tired. We have work tomorrow. Please, let's go to sleep."

Then I walked away from her and went to bed. With a sigh, she followed suit.

-----

It's midnight. I keep tossing around but can't seem to sleep. Her words struck to me.

"Aren't you curious though? How far he is to you? If you could only-"

If I could only take off the wrist band then I'll see how far he is.

I look at my wrist and gently touched the wrist band.

Truth be told. I have longed to removed it many times.

But I'm refraining myself.

Because I don't want to get attached.

That's the least I could do for him or else I would end up breaking him apart.

A/SN: I just wanna clarify something.

You probably think if the MC is wearing a wrist band so as not to see the numbers on her wrist will she not remove it when she takes a bath?

Answer: She won't. It probably sounds absurd but let us do some imagination here. The MC has lots of wrist band. So let's say when she takes a bath, she does put soap on her hands and inside the wrist band. She rinses herself and wipes herself dry. She gets another wrist band ready so when she takes the wet one off, she'll look away, while wiping her wrist dry and puts the new wrist band. Voila!! Problem solve!!
