Closing your eyes didn't help, and the tea that Sae brought you, which you had high hopes for, didn't work either.
You were exhausted and tired, but sleeping was clearly not in your schedule for the day. Getting off the bed as quietly as you could, trying not the wake the girl beside you, you walked to the kitchen, rummaging through the pantry looking for a snack.
You closed your eyes, throwing your head back when a cup fell and shattered on the floor, you hoped and prayed that it didn't wake her up, but when her slim figure came into your view you felt terrible.
"What happened?" Her voice was groggily and tired, which made you feel even worse.
"I'm so sorry for waking you up. I was trying to make no noise but then the cup fell," you were crying, you got extremely sensitive when you couldn't sleep.
"No no it's okay, I had to pee, it's not your fault," her arms wrapped around your cold body, you dropped your head on her shoulder as tears slowly streamed down your face, "Come on, I'll go to the bathroom and we can watch a move until you can sleep,"
Sae had always been compassionate and understanding, which is why you loved her so much.

It had been 6 days since you last heard of her. She walked through the door with no explanation, she was never the type to walk out during arguments.
Although the argument between the two of you was very heated, you knew she was hiding something. Sae Byeok had never walked away from you, and she never left without saying I love you.
You were sick to your stomach, and each time her little brother asked for his sister's whereabouts you could only lie to him and say she was coming back soon.
But was she actually coming back? With each day that went on, you began to lose hope and your heart began to grief.
You noticed she was acting weird when she came back home with a bruised face and a suspicious amount of cash on her hands.
“Sae, where did you get that from?” You asked, placing your phone down on the table in front of you.
“I won it,” she shrugged, plopping down next to you on the couch.
You knew she didn’t like to be questioned, but you had to know where your girlfriend had taken that stash of cash from, “You won it? How exactly did you win all of that Sae Byeok?”
“I just won it okay? Stop questioning me so much,” she sent a small glare your way making you get off your seat.
“Are you stealing again? Sae, you’re stealing again aren’t you?” You ran your fingers through your hair in frustration, “You remember what happened last time don’t you? How you almost got killed for stealing?”
“I’m not stealing. And why don’t you mind your business for once? Always snooping into things that don’t concern you. You should be glad I’m doing something for us to survive on,” she shouted, causing you to take a step back.
“What is that supposed to mean? I work my ass off to provide for both you and Cheol, and if it wasn’t for you, half of my paycheck wouldn’t be going to some sketchy man you find in an alley Sae,” and the argument went on for as long as it could.
You both said things you deeply regretted. And deep down, you blamed yourself for making her disappear.
You thought she would come back within the hour, thinking she was taking a walk to cool herself off.
But when she didn’t return that night, you couldn’t sleep or eat. You were worried sick, but you had to stay strong for her little brother.
You heard a knock on the door and your body filled with relief, only to be disappointed when you were met with a stranger and not Sae Byeok.
“Are you Y/N?” you nodded your head in response, how did this man your name and where you live, “I’m a friend of Sae Byeok,”
“Is she okay? Do you know where she is? When is she coming?”
You truly had never felt something quite like this before. Your oxygen was ripped from your body, and your heart stopped working. It was as if someone threw a large bucket of iced water on you with no warning. That feeling you get on the largest drop on the roller coaster. That feeling you also get before you walk into the dentist. Or when you have a large test. But the feeling you get after they all go wrong. You failed the test, the roller coaster failed and the ice water killed you.
“Sae Byeok isn’t coming Y/N,”
Your body was in shock, apart from the loud sobs that fell past your lips before you dropped to the floor. The man did his best trying to comfort you.
“What do you mean she isn’t coming? Where is she?” Deep down inside you knew the answer.
But denying it was the only thing you could do. You couldn’t accept the fact that Sae was dead.
How was she dead, and where was her body?
“I’m so sorry. She asked me to take care of you and her brother. She asked me to tell you that she wants you to move on, and to be happy with Cheol. To go to Jeju Island together and have drinks on her name,”
“No. No. No. No,” Sae was not dead.
“I’m sorry Y/N, but I must go. She also said that she loved you more than you could ever think.” And with that, the man got up, placing a suitcase on the floor and leaving.
You didn’t know what to do. How were you going to tell Cheol that his sister was dead? How were you supposed to live when the love of your life was no longer here.
And you couldn’t live without her. Thoughts crossed your mind but you couldn’t do it.
You couldn’t leave Cheol alone, because he needed you. You and Cheol were now alone, your only family being Sae and Cheol.
