The Perfect Dawn

The Perfect Dawn

By: William Elfrado Candra

It was the most beautiful dawn in the last windy autumn, a man called Junho started that day by pouring his boiling water into his favourite instant cup noodle, after while he plugged his phone’s charger to the adopter. He was still confused by his own life, immediately he jumped off from his bed, he wore his coat then went to a store which close to his flat. He never bring any money and he didn’t have it yet on that moment, too. Luckily, he always bring his “Lucky Compass”, which is better called as “The Broken Compass” because it always pointing to the wrong direction (not to the North), but anywhere instead. Its just like the same as Jack Sparrow’s compass, it will shows everything what you want, you just need to think it deep inside your heart, and the needle will start to move. Therefore, after Junho entered the store, he took out his Lucky Compass and immediately the compass pointed to the girl 2 feet away in front of him. The girl was picking a bottle of nail polish remover, while Junho was pretending not to see her. Junho knows everything inside this store, including to the placement of cctv camera. When the girl was starting to move, Junho suddenly grabbed that girl’s bag, he ran out from that store and jumped to the stairs which connected into his flat. That girl seemed could not find him anymore and nobody was there to help her. In the end, he was just lie down on floors, counting money that he had earn, and lifting his blue dumbbell.
