At some point, I had ventured to a little pond standing on a cement bridge that overlooked it.
The gentle breeze there was lovely and peaceful, the sound of the water flowing was relaxing. The transparent water showed the pale, cream rocks down below, the water rippled as it moved in sync with the wind and the sun gleamed and sparkled in large specks on its surface.
But none of this could calm the feeling rising in my heart.
I felt jealousy. Jealous of Jungwoo, his mother welcomed him with opened arms, whereas, my parents shunned me the moment they saw my face.
I was envious more accurately.
