Living Room Art

This day, though, I hiked another autumn wood.  Eastern Europe ancient; overgrown.  So thick the view was dark at just a few feet off the path.  All red and yellow; orange and brown, a million trees, each one in blazing preparation for long, frozen winter.  I cannot but recall my friend’s words, lasting long, though he did not, and the instant truth that follows.  Looking upward at the fiery canopy, matched against the bright cerulean sky beyond, I embrace autumn!  Winter surely comes one day, but spring beyond.  I have a winter to prepare for, but it is not yet.
Volume 1 – Chapter 1: “Running Away”

Story Points:

Ji Hun is bored and unhappy with his life in the band “Forever.” Inner thoughts reveal his frustration and desire to escape.

He decides to run away; changes his appearance with a ginger curly wig and glasses to hide his identity.

Ji Hun sneaks out, but security guards notice him and start chasing him.

While running, he accidentally bumps into Min Joon, a girl with long curly black hair, wearing a hoodie and baggy jeans. They fall on the ground.

Min Joon helps him up and insists on taking him to her home to relax.

She offers him tea and biscuits; they start talking. Ji Hun lies and says his name is “Jin” and that he is an accountant.

He notices posters of his band “Forever” in her room and realizes she is a fan. Min Joon praises Ji Hun’s voice, making him shy.

Ji Hun talks about never enjoying life; Min Joon promises to teach him how to enjoy life.

Ji Hun hesitates, worried about being recognized, but she reassures him. He agrees to go with her.

Min Joon prepares to take him outside, setting up the transition to Chapter 2 (car ride and amusement park).
