Light in my Dark
Chapter 1



Your POV
I can't believe I'm a college student already. Time flies so fast. After a few years I need to find s stable job. Ugh.


Mom
*knocks on my door* Lily! Are you awake?


Your POV
My mom calls me by my English name sometimes. We stayed a few years ago in San Fransisco when I was a kid.


Your POV
But we moved back here in Korea when I turned high school.


Soohee
Yes mom. I'm coming down.


Your POV
I took a bath and got ready before I went downstairs. I saw dad and my older brother Seungmin talking on the table.


Your POV
Mom is already cooking something up, and my little sister is watching her, clearly amazed and hungry. She's 5 years old and so smart already


Your POV
I hugged her and dad, kissed Soomi on her cheek, pinched Seungmin, then I helped prepared breakfast.


Dad
Wow. My daughter is already at college, and my son is a graduating student. I feel old.


Seungmin
Don't worry dad, you and mom still look young. Seriously though, you don't look like parents! And you still have a little girl!


Soohee
Yeah. Seriously. I thought it was just me and Seungmin, I was shocked when mom told me she's pregnant. Hey aren't you gonna move out?


Seungmin
Are you really desperate to get rid of me? And why are you calling me by my first name? Mom she's being disrespectful!


Soohee
You're whining like a child. I don't wanna call you oppa. Gross! And yeah I'm desperate, I want to transform your room into my library.


Seungmin
You wish!


Soomi
Let's play Lily!


Soohee
See? Even Soomi calls me by my first name and I don't mind. Later Soomi when I get home okay?


Seungmin
You're too American..even though you're Korean.


Soohee
I am American. I was born there. But you're not because you're a kid when we moved there in San Francisco.


Dad
But you're Korean by blood. *laughs*


Soohee
I don't mind being both a Korean and American.


Soohee
Can I drive today?


Seungmin
Only if you call me oppa.


Soohee
Gross. No thank you.


Mom
It's just right that your brother drives. You can drive when you have your own car.


Soohee
And when's that?


Dad
It's a surprise. Bye kids! Bye love~


Your POV
Dad hugged us goodbye, and kissed mom goodbye. I love how strong my parents are, I wish I'd have that kind of relationship someday.


Soomi
Bye Lily! Bye Seungmin!


Seungmin
Look what you did! Soomi is copying you!


Soohee
Hmm. Bye Soomi! Bye mom!


Mom
Bye you two! Play nice.


Seungmin
Bye mom~ Bye my favorite sister Soomi!


Your POV
After driving for 40 minutes. We arrived at the ***** University.


Seungmin
Welcome to hell!


Soohee
What a way to welcome me Seungmin.


Seungmin
What? It feels like hell. Especially exam week.


Soohee
Well thankfully I'm not like you. I love studying thank you very much.


Seungmin
Then can you help me when--


Ryujin
Sooheeee!


Your POV
Ugh thank Ryujin she rescued me before talking more with Seungmin.


Ryujin
I missed you~!


Your POV
We hugged and I dragged her away from Seungmin.


Seungmin
Hey I'm not finished!


Ryujin
Woops. Bye Seungmin!


Soohee
Thank you for arriving! I'm about to get mad before my brother asks me to help him with exams again.


Soohee
So where's Yeji? Have you seen her yet?


Ryujin
Not yet. But she called and said she'll be dropping off her sisters Yoona and Chaeryoung in their school.


Soohee
What about Lia?


Ryujin
She said she's here but I can't find her anywhere.


Your POV
Suddenly someone hugged us both from behind...


Lia
Found you at last!


Ryujin
His!


Soohee
Heyyyy~


Your POV
The three of us hugged, then another person joined us...


Yeji
Don't forget your sexiest best friend!


Lia
Yaaas~ We're complete again!


Soohee
Umm. Girls, we're gonna be late if we don't find our first subject yet...


Yeji
Oh yes we need to go now!
