The morning sun rays force you to open your eyes.

You blink several times, trying to get used to this new clarity invading the room.

You open your eyes completely, as you examine your surroundings, coming to realise that that's not your room. 

You start feeling anxious when you remember the place you're in. 

And, to make matters even worse, you're not alone.

There's a familiar person sleeping beside you on the mattress.

He turns around as your heart skips a beat.

oh... Morning, bae. Did I wake you up? (smirks half asleep).

He tries to hug you, and your pulse is out of control. You just wanna run away from him, but it feels as if your body is stuck on that bed.

You open your eyes all of a sudden, actually waking up in your own room.

You fetch your phone from the night table to check the hour.

You are still a bit shocked because of that bad dream, so you stare vacantly at the ceiling.

You try to convince yourself that your past can no longer harm you. That's why you moved to South Korea.

Before your thoughts play tricks on you, you decide to go for a glass of water.

You fill your glass with mineral water, and you almost fill an imaginary bowl for pets.

You're overwhelmed with a feeling of nostalgia, remembering your parents house in Sweden. 

Memories of joy and the warmth of a home fill your heart. You miss that.

Though that apartment in the city of Seoul made you feel proud of your self-sufficiency and independency, ...

in times like this it felt like a prison. A comfy yet lonely prison.

You thought of calling your parents for a second. But you restrained yourself. You didn't want to bore them with your problems.

[ I better call them when I'm in a better mood. ]

You decided to relax on the sofa while searching for something fun to do on your smartphone.

[ maybe Norwegian, to honour the memory of my dearest grandpa... ]

You were just scrolling, when the icon of an app draw your attention.
