Blacklight A Life's

Chapter 4's

After buying a book and having coffee with Hwan. Yeri decided to go straight home because the clock has shown at 2 pm. Arriving at the house Yeri directly faced with Appa who was sitting in the middle room.

"Where have you been? Didn't you come out yesterday with Hansu and Anna?" ask Mr. Park in a cold tone.

"A-appa. Yeri just to the bookstore, there are books that Yeri must buy to learn to prepare for the Exam early next semester." Yeri answered nervously.

"To a bookstore or to meet a man? Do you dare to lie again about Yeri-a? You want to get the law again?"

"T-no appa, a-I just accidentally met her a-appa. I-I didn't lie."

"Who is he?"

"People who accidentally hit my car yesterday appa." Yeri replied softly but could still be heard by Mr. Park

"He just wants to buy me a drink. So, I agreed and we went to the cafe near the bookstore." Yeri explained.

"Alright appa believes. Remember Yeri-a, Appa doesn't want you to lie to Appa anymore. Youunderstand?" Be firm, Mr. Park.

"Yes appa, Yeri understands." Reply yeri with a little fear of the firm tone of her app.

Upon hearing his daughter's reply, Mr. Park stepped away leaving Yeri still lowered in fear.

"Yeri-a go back to the room." Madame Park suddenly said that coming from the kitchen.

"Yes eomma." Reply Yeri in a soft voice.

"Why haven't you been acting like this before, Appa"

********

Tok.dok..

"Yeri-a, can eomma come in?" Miss Park said outside Yeri's room.

"Just enter eomma." Yeri from inside her room. Madam Park immediately went into Yeri's room and walked up to Yeri who was sitting leaning on her bed.

"You okay, honey? Eomma told Appa you went to the bookstore. Eomma doesn't know that Appa sent someone to follow you. So, if you know you're meeting a man"

"So, appa told people to spy on me eomma?"

"Yes, your App is afraid you're doing something bad again."

"I understand eomma. Thank you for eomma telling me."

"Sorry dear." Madam Park's voice trembled slightly as it held back the sobbing.

"Eomma, it should be Yeri who apologizes. Yeri is wrong." Timpal Yeri clasped Park's hand tightly.

"No dear, no.. Eomma and appa are wrong."

"Eomma yes, can we not discuss this again?"

"Well baby, sorry" said Ms. Park with a warm smile

"Eomma go down first, eomma wants to prepare dinner. Come down if dinner is ready" he continued

"Yes eomma" Yeri replied with a sweet smile

"Sorry eomma, appa." Yeri's monologue to herself after Miss Park closes her bedroom door.

******

The current clock shows 7pm, the dinner hour for the Park family.

"Yeri-a, come down. Let's have dinner." Shouted Miss Park from downstairs.

Yeri who heard the eomma's cry immediately moved from her study table and rushed towards the dining room.

"Good night appa, eomma." Sapa Yeri to her parents.

"Good night Yeri-a/honey." Mr and Mrs Park are at the same time.

Yeri sits in a chair to join her parents.

"It's a pity to eat, eomma cooks steak for you" said Miss Park as she placed a plate containing the steak and its catcher in front of Yeri.

"Thank you eomma." Yeri said with a sweet smile and sparkling eyes. "Good eat eomma, appa." Yeri.

"Good meal." Mr and Mrs Park are at the same time.

As usual, the Park family dining room only heard the sound of the clink of cutlery. No family talk or jokes. Maybe it's a little stiff, but yes that's what Yeri's family is like.

Dinner is over. Yeri had already returned to her room and continued her study. Yeri never got together with her parents to chat casually or anything, they will only gather at meals together and there are certain events only. Moreover, they would only spend their time with each other's busyness. Yeah, like that. And Yeri was used to it all.

Yeri from childhood was always in living alone at home without anyone noticing the little Yeri. Maybe that is also what makes Yeri a quiet figure, not good at getting along and just like the pleasure. Yeri still clearly remembers her childhood.

How she always felt jealous of her childhood friend and how little Yeri got violent for the first time from her app. Every time I stopped all that Yeri's chest felt very tight.

Huft...

A rude snort was heard in the baby blue room. Park Yeri Room. He had finished his study and now Yeri could not sleep. It had been 30 minutes Yeri lay on her Kingsize bed but, she never fell asleep. Yeri decided to open her phone. Because from noon until now Yeri did not open her phone. A message caught his attention.

*_*

"Yeri-ssi. Have you reached home yet? It's me Hwan, Lim Hwan." 14.30

"Yeri-ssi. Why not return my message? Are you busy?." 15.00

"Yeri-ssi.. Can we meet again?" 18.30

"Yeri-ssi. Reply to my message if you're not busy. I'm waiting for you." 19.00

*_*

"Gee.. He sent me a text message." Yeri said with a flabbergasted look after opening a consecutive message from Hwan and immediately replied to him.

*_*

"Sorry Hwan-ssi. I just grabbed my phone. And I don't know if you're sending me a message." Yeri replied

*_*

After replying to Hwan's message, he also opened another message starting from his chat group with Hansu and Anna. And also a message from Yejin. Yeri also opened Yejin's message because yesterday she had ignored her message.

*_*

From: Jeon Yejin

"Yeri-a. Why do you always ignore me? Do you really not want to be friends with me anymore? How long haven't we seen Yeri-a?." 18.05

"Let's meet Yeri-a. I miss my friend Park Yeri so much." 18.30

*_*

Yeri just stared at the message Yejin sent. Yeri had long since ignored Yejin. Even if Yeri thought, she ignored Yejin when she started to be best friends with Hansu and Anna, which is not evil at all.

*_*

"Jin-a. Sorry, I didn't mean to ignore you. I was too focused on school. And yes you know that I've been overprotective of me. So, I'm sorry I can't be free like I used to."

*_*

Ting.ting..

The voice of the message notification came in, when Yeri wanted to put down her phone after replying to Yejin's message. What Yeri initially thought was a reply from Yejin, turned out to be a message from Hwan.

*_*

"It's okay Yeri-ssi. I thought you were ignoring me. But, thank goodness you returned my message." Hwan

"No. I'm not ignoring you." Yeri

"Yes, thank you for not ignoring me."

"Yes." Yeah."

"Yeri-ssi. Wanna go with me? I want to be friends with you. You want to be friends with me, right?"

*_*

Yeri briefly thought for a moment to reply to a message from Hwan. Should he accept his invitation to go together? But his appa will definitely be watching him by sending a spy again. Like today.

*_*

"I want to be friends with you. But, sorry Hwan-ssi. I can't go with you."

"We're friends now? And why can't it? Don't you want to see me again Yeri-a?"

"No. It's not. There's another reason, sorry."

"It's okay. Sleep, it's Yeri-a's night."

"Hm.. You're also Hwan-ssi."

"Yes. Good night Yeri - a."

*_*

Yeri chose not to reply to Hwan's message again. He kept his cell phone on the left side of his bed, and prepared for bed.
