I never thought myself to be a bookish person.

Right now, wrapped in a silk duvet and my body rolled over the bed, with the auburn pages of 'Little Women' flashed before my eyes, I can only come into one conclusion- this book has cast a serious enchantment on me. Most of the times, I'm forgetting to shift my position, or even to push away the red strands of hair falling over my gaze.

Back in Kyeon-ju, I was never allowed to study. It was Aera, my little sister, who had the permission for that. But I never once minded. Aera used to take out a lot of books from the library of her school and we would read them in our secret hideout.

But the books Aera used to get from the library, were mostly based on filthy and toxic politics. The schools were run by the lead political party of the village; resulting a drastic change in the selection of chosen books. It took us days to recover some good ones which suited my taste.

Politics was never my preference. Yes, it was indeed a hot topic in the village, and surely, in our house because my father was the right hand of the Councillor. He couldn't be seen in the day and for that, day was my most liked time. When night approached, my nightmares also started.
