  5 used to stay in a small and cozy apartment. It wasn't much, it wasn't big, it wasn't fanciful, but it was enough. They slept side by side every night, they share the same warmth under the blanket, they fade off into their dreamland with their loved ones right by their side, they were safe and secure with the least that they have, but the most love they had.

  The 5 grew. They start to asked for more, for the better, for themselves. They moved into a slightly bigger appartment, they had seperate rooms, they were still under the same roof, but the walls seperated them.

  3 been through the good and the bad with 1 and 2. He strive to study hard, thought for them, their well-being, their financial situations. He sacrificed, he succeeded. Gradually, studies was his priority, to break free from the cycle, to lead a better life, to have a better future. He grew up, he found his own life, found his own goals, and slowly he faded away. Which is when 524.

  1&2 became distant, had arguments, cold war. They grew too. With new technologies and smart devices, they upgraded themselves to stay in trend, to fit in to the life we are in. Needless to say, it brought more harm than good. They used to fight, they scream at each other at their top of their voices, they bicker with each other, they barely spoke, and than they never spoke again.......They decided that they still have a big world yet to be seen, explored, and there are still options out there better than the one next to them. The one they spend more than half of their lives with, the one they build a home with, the one they used to love oh so dearly. As they drifted apart, it became 522.

  4 was gem of the family, the king I suppose. He gets what he wants, but he gives what he can too. He wasn't all hardworking and all, but he bears responsibility on his shoulder's like a man. A very simple man, simple goals, simple expectations. But what that brought him up, tore him down. The decision to move out was said to be due to work. But I know, deep inside he wants to avoid. He doesn't wanna witness, to feel, to experience the pain of losing it bit by bit. And than, it became 521.

  5 didn't expect the changes to happen oh so quickly. She grew up too fast, she knew too much, she got hurt too painfully. She kept hoping things to be better, but every day what she see is the five going further and further away from each other. She choose to feel, to understand the five emotions, to let the feelings penetrate her fully, till she let it all go. She tried to be the best to accommodate to all, she tried to patch things back, but all she got was her heart broken, again and again...

  It's gonna be CNY tomorrow. Things have never been the same and got worst every passing years. Sadly, this year is gonna be the routine I've to get used to. By doing nothing. It's killing me slowly, and I can't catch my breath anymore........
