***************

The main character: Ahn Yoona is a 21 year old girl who lived with her bestfriend Lee Minha(also 21).Minha dies in a car crash and Yoona is left heartbroken.

The story starts now:

As I stood over her graveyard drenched in rain,I knew,

"This was the day my will to die overrides my will to live".

"This is the story of how I died"

"This wasn't the first time I felt me being here or me not being here didn't make a difference but today,I lost someone who, somehow, convinced me that me being here made a difference"

My heart felt empty , and the world around me had blurred into a murky backdrop.Now there was no one who would call my name like she did,"Yoonayaaa"

I could still here her calling me...

I didn't want to believe she had left me forever,"Why does everyone I love end up leaving me or straight up die".

They called me a jinx,Minha was the only reason I stopped using that word for myself but,

" Oh! Minha!LOOK at me,I really am a jinx.I killed you too."

Minha was my only family.Before the accident she wanted to leave for US but I rebuked her saying she was abandoning me.I told her,I wished her dead rather than leaving me.

I jinxed her too.


Whispering under my breath, my voice choked with guilt and regret.

I muttered, "Minha, your flight is at 5. Get up; you have to go."

The ground was staring back at me as if it knew how shameless I was to stand at Minha's graveyard begging for forgiveness when I didn't deserve it.

My words dissolved into sobs.
I crumpled to the ground, my tears mixing with the rain.

As darkness began to encroach, I found myself drawn to a desolate bridge, where the raging river below mirrored the depth of my wounded heart.

The unending ache in my chest echoed in my mind as I replayed that final conversation.
I thought of a possible goodbye where I hugged her tightly and thanked her for being there in my life.

I uttered softly, "What will I live for now, Minha? You broke every promise you made, and I accused you of betraying me, of leaving me behind and now you did, in the cruelest way possible."

Desperation gnawed at me, and I reached for my phone,typing Ài(love in Mandarin) in my contacts.

I had saved her number as Ài because that is what she was for me.She was the only reason I knew what love meant.

I attempted to call Minha one last time hoping she would pick up,hoping I would hear Minha's soft voice and realise she wasn't actually gone.

I wished, it were all just a dreadful nightmare. A nightmare that had to end or I wouldn't be able to survive.
