Best Friend

Certain Again 6 Best Friend I kind of knew that I should apologize. I just didn't know how to. And couple weeks passed by. Thanksgiving was boring as hell. I didn't go back home. There is nothing for me at home. I did a video call with my parents and had to promise I will visit home during Christmas or New Year. But in all honesty, I haven't even bought a plane ticket. In two weeks, it will be Christmas. I should come up with a cleaver excuse by then.

Certain Again 5 Best Friend The next day, I was woken up by a loud bang on my door and my phone ring at the same time. My phone was on the floor vibrating and ringing. The screen light was on. A call was coming from Yun. It was 10:36 am. I woke up, and walked to my door like a zombie. I wasn't even wearing pants. I must have felt uncomfortable and took them off while sleeping.

Certain Again 3 Miranda Time is such a bitch. It is too slow when it needs to be fast, aka work hours, and it is too fast when it needs to be slow. By that I mean, the Friday came already. I could not help but keep feeling uncomfortable thinking of her. I didn't see her at all after that day, at work or at the gym. The gym was my fault. I pulled the workout time one hour early to avoid her. The work was her fault. She was busy ramping up, which is what the new director was supposed to be doing. I only saw her over the org-wide zoom meeting.

Certain Again 2 Miranda "I don't know if I should be happy or sad that my college friend is my boss now." I said to my friend Yun in the evening. She lived literally next door to my apartment so we often spent nights together. But today was not about the occasional hangout. My water pipe was broken and the sync was leaking. So I couldn't cook today and thought I might as well just visit Yun. Tomorrow, someone from the apartment management will fix it. After dinner together home and while watching her favorite K-drama, I told her about my new boss slash old friend.

Miranda

Certain Again 1 Miranda She has been coming to my dream everyday. It was in various forms but most of the times she was my friend and I was trying to save both of us from a dangerous situation. Then I woke up sweating and got super super curious about her presence. That's because I don't talk to her anymore. I have not been talking to her for the last 10 years. She is, well, was my close/best friend when I was in college. We used to drink together, study together and do final projects together. Well, I did most of the projects by myself and she just put her name on the paper but still.
