Her life was full o...

Mother?
Daesun searches more answers through his father's eyes, eyes were tearing up more than before. The lady in her dreams was her mother all along? The child, was her?
She stood there in a dazed, was this a blessing that she finally knew the origin why her mother suddenly vanish over the years she grew up? Or was this a curse that the moment she knew who she is, was actually dead from the beginning of their separation?
"Over the seven months she took care of you, she was the best mother from my perspective" Mr Joo recalls, how the lady would independently do everything in all cost. She was a down to earth person, a sweet comfort person.
Daesun kept on listening, crying made her numb to not speak through this conversation.
Her father spoke once again, vividly remembering their first house together; "She preferred staying on a small house, where most of us can snuggle in one spot and a backyard for you to run around"
"Remember that polaroid picture of you under a tree near a wooden swing?" Mr Joo asks his beloved daughter with a soft smile.
Daesun nodded slowly as the memory of the baby photo came on her mind.
"The swing. Your mom made it just for you" He replies in return.
The talk went almost the midnight, as daesun just kept the screaming from the inside. Most of them were just pure memories of the old couple. That she wishes to do again now that she has grown.
But sadly it's the wrong time, and now she's gone.

"Seondan village had a fire outbreak way back at year 2000. People said the cause of it was from a certain explosion on a house" A detective flips pages on his wooden clipboard, reporting details to the fire accident on where they used to live.
Daesun shakes her head up and down, "Thank you for the information, i am pleased..."
The detective nodded and excuse himself to leave, once he did Daesun rubs her temples in frustration. "Why did you have to die...."
"Daesun!" A voice wakes her up from the deep thoughts, she averted her gaze to the person and saw jay coming towards her.
"How's your father? I heard he's getting discharged today" He sits across the table and placed a bag that spreads a familiar savoury aroma. Fried chicken?
"Mhm, he is. I'm glad" Daesun briefly says.
"By the way, jake wanted to hand you this. You know him, being busy and all" Jay takes out 2 boxes of chicken, which she easily recognize that it was the same flavor he usually 'hands in'.
"You know you can stop lying...." Daesun softly mumbles, making the boy confuse as hell. They made eye contact. "Jake doesn't even know what chicken flavor i like. Usually when we eat out he likes rice cakes"
"I- God, I'm sorry-"
Daesun chuckles at stammering jay, "It's no big deal" she shook her and smiled. "I'll be leaving now, thanks for the chicken Jongseong-ah" she stood up from her seat and patted his shoulder which made the boy's heart flutter.
"So this is what jake feels every single day" Jay mutters with a frown. He watches her leave the cafe, soon he followed her out after getting a certain text from jake.
Jake Sim:
Remember those men who almost ~~~~~ Daesun and the lady?
I saw them with Mrs Joo, they're at the hospital with her.
Keep an eye on them, quickly. I'll be on my way.

Jay hurriedly arrived the hospital, people as usual were minding their own business. His head and eyes drifted every second searching the men, so as Mrs Joo.
He pass by patient rooms until he had stopped, hearing the voice of someone he clearly knows, he hid at the side and eavesdrop.
What confuses him is that they're in Mr Joo's room. What are they doing here?
"Yah, we better succeed. Madam didn't let us out of jail to fail again" A masculine voice says. Jail? It must be the fucking rapists. Jay clenches his jaw in anger.
But who's madam?
"I'm sure we'll break the CEO Joo's precious daughter's bones in one piece. Look how pathetic she was without the man" Another man spoke out, with a chuckle in the end. Eventually everyone else in the room laughed.
"That's it" He muttered and threw his temper out. Revealing himself from the frame door, he glared hatred at them and punch the nearest one's face.
Man, this guy was in all levels angry. Surely any time soon he won't stop, no, no, no. It won't be possible with this anger eruption.
He swing his hard-rock fist to each one of them that were approaching him for a fight. As jay was busy with the others, the tall one grabbed a chair and was about to throw it on Jay's back when an uninvited kick was given to him, jake panted.
All of them were a shitting mess, a broken nose, eyes turned purple-black as their cheeks were swollen like the deepest pool in the world.
"Calm down man" Jake held his forearms and waited for him to go back to normal tempered jay. "I told you to JUST keep an eye of them" He whispers to jay.
Jay desperately, swung his fists in the air. "Fuckers needs to die" he panted angrily, nope, he ain't calming down at this rate.
Jake sighs and glances to the groaning men in the floor, curled up into a ball to ease the pain. "You know what, you did pretty good. Excellent job" He suddenly compliments. Jay rolls his eyes, haughtiness all over.
But something was odd, those men's eyes were fix to somewhere else. To be specific to the two's back? As if there's someone behind them.
Without a second thought or breath to exhale, a foot kick jake so hard on the back made him take stumbling steps with jay and fall to a few vases displayed in the room.
They groan, pieces of glass cut into their stomach. They look at the person who kicked them, an ultra wave shock spreads into their system. Miss Ahn?
The lady sends a horrible glare to them, "You shouldn't have mess with us"
