The car ride to the Kim residence was silent, no one said a single word. Soft breathing could be heard and the radio playing, that's all. The girls were tired and curious as well, since they were going to learn about something that they didn't have any idea of. Mr Kim on the other side, was scared of how the girls would take the truth of his life.

Soon, they reached home and the girls along with Mr Kim, got out of the car silently. Mr Kim pressed the doorbell, the girls standing behind him. They could hear fast and heavy footsteps nearing the door which made the girls smile a tad bit. The door opened, revealing a worried Chanwoo and Jasmine.

"Oh, thank god! You're alright!"Jasmine exclaimed as she quickly pulled the girls into a tight hug. Mr Kim smiled slightly and got into the house quietly. Chanwoo was a bit confused on Mr Kim being silent and he was having a gut feeling that something was wrong, it just didn't feel right.

Nevertheless, he shrugged off the feeling as Jasmine brought the girls into the house while Chanwoo kissed their heads. Mr Kim then, cleared his throat, catching everyone's attention. "Girls, go and clean up. Me, Uncle Chan and Aunt Jasmine will set the dining table for dinner"he said as he signaled the two adults to follow him to the kitchen. Jasmine frowned as she caught onto the awkward air surrounding, as well.

Chanwoo nodded as he followed Mr Kim into the kitchen as Jasmine turned to the girls. "Go ahead. We'll have something light since I know you're really not in the mood to eat something"she said softly whilst smiling at them. Ashita nodded and walked towards her room. "Thank you, Aunt Jas.."Nirvani muttered before walking towards her room.

Jasmine frowned at their weird behavior but walked to the kitchen to help in setting the dinning table.

Dinner was done. They had a light dinner of homemade burgers and fries along with some cupcakes which Chanwoo had baked. Now, the 5 of them were sat in the living room, the girls having a cup of chocolate in their hands, sipping on it slowly.

They were gathered to finally, tell the story of the truth.

Earlier when the girls went into their rooms to freshen up, Mr Kim had told Chanwoo and Jasmine about what the girls had discovered from Hwan, his younger brother who was behind the kidnapping of Ashita. Jasmine and Chanwoo were equally scared and nervous as Mr Kim but as they thought, the 3 adults had figured that it was time to let the girls know.

After all, it was connected with their lives too.

Mr Kim cleared his throat as he moved around the single couch to sit more comfortably. The girls waited for him to speak while sipping on their hot chocolates. After a minute had passed, Mr Kim finally spoke.

"Okay, girls"he called out, gulping down his nervousness. The girls saw how nervous Mr Kim was so they gave him reassuring smiles. Mr Kim sighed as began speaking.
