I had a dream. It was a really important dream, but I can't remember it. Was I in a hospital room? Maybe there was a doctor in front of me, with a serious expression on his face, talking about something.
‘It must just be a dream.’

I got out of bed and went into the kitchen.
“Taehyun, it was your turn on morning duty today.”
When my father saw me, he said,
"sorry."
“There’s a sandwich in the fridge, so be sure to eat it before you go.”
“Yes. Have a nice trip.”
When I answered, my father went out the door.


“What is it, Kang Tae-hyun, you didn’t forget the way today?”
When we arrived at the class, Choi Soo-bin said.
“Did I get lost yesterday and not come to school?”
“What, don’t you remember yesterday?”
Jeongkai asked.
“What did I do yesterday?”

Choi Soo-bin said I got lost yesterday and didn't arrive at school until lunchtime. She also said I seemed like a completely different person. She said the model student who usually received rave reviews from her teachers couldn't answer a single question during math class. When did I ever do that?
 
It's lunchtime. My friends were going crazy because today's menu was tteokbokki. I didn't have an appetite, so I decided to grab some bread and milk from the cafeteria.
“Are you really not going to eat it?”
Kai looked at me with a very surprised look and said.
“That’s the kid who always sings ‘I want to eat cheese tteokbokki.’”
Choi Soo-bin responded with a bang.
“It wasn’t that bad.”

As soon as I woke up, the pungent smell of medicine greeted me. I felt strange today.I headed to the bathroom to wash my face. My face reflected in the bathroom mirror was lifeless. Pale skin, chapped lips, and unfocused eyes.. I have about 6 months left to live.

meI stared blankly at myself in the bathroom mirror before returning to my hospital room. When I came to, I realized I had been dreaming. It was as if I had been possessed by someone else's body. I remember in my dream, I was walking around Seoul with my friends all day. When was the last time I had fun without thinking about anything?

I was gazing at the blue sky outside the window when the hospital room door opened. A girl who looked to be around elementary school age poked her head out through the gap. She was also wearing a patient gown. She must have been admitted recently. For a moment, our eyes met. Her face flushed.

“It hasn’t been that long since you were admitted to the hospital, has it?”
"ah.. yes.."
“Are you looking for a hospital room?”
“I remember it was on the second floor..”
“A single room?”
"yes..!"
“I think I know where it is. Follow me.”
So I went out into the hallway with the girl.
