I’m a (Sumi)re of sunshine.

≡ bumping this + hcs. i. sumi has become more comfortable in her skin. ii. her hair is shorter, just a little past her shoulders. iii. she honors her sister in a more healthy way — dying her red hair a streak of brown to symbolize their relationship. iv. she’s 19-20ish.

Yeah, I stink after gymnastics practice, but you know what? I smell like chasing my dreams; you smell like scrolling on TikTok. We are *not* the same.

⠀ 〝 Mr. Musk I will not give you 8 dollars I already had an identity crisis and do not need you to verify me. 〞 ⠀

⠀ 〝 O-Oh, yeah. Of course we don’t. I’ve just kinda been through the wringer lately. You know my coach. Mercy isn’t in her vocabulary! 〞 ⠀

⠀ Your thoughts follow me into my dreams… ⠀

⠀ Rubbing her eyes absentmindedly… sometimes, exhaustion hits all at once. ⠀

⠀ 〝 I understand exams are around the corner, but… isn’t there such a thing as *overstudying*, too? Like, I know if I practice too much, my body’ll be letting me hear it the next day. 〞 ⠀

⠀ Falling asleep, lightly snoring as her boyfriend plays online games late into the night. ⠀

⠀ Missing you. ⠀

— Honestly interested in developing Sumi a bit more. She’s in college here, so I already write her having grown up a bit/finding more healthy ways to involve her sister in day to day life, but I’m curious where she’d go past that.

⠀ For all the progress she’s made, the guilt still leaves her lying awake more nights than she’s proud to admit. ⠀

I ought to text everyone… even dreams get lonely if you’re not sharing them with anybody.
