Yeonju POV
"yeonju!!!"

i was welcomed by my brother right when i opened the door.

"youngh— who are they?" there, standing two unfamiliar yet familiar looking strangers. i tilted my head to the side, i think i saw them before... but where?

"uh... don't you know... who are they?", he asked me. the two strangers walked to me with worrying expressions. the middle-aged woman spoke softly while holding my both hands, "honey... its us... your parents! im your mother."

i looked at the middle-aged man pointing himself, "and im your father. do you really forget us again yeonju yah?"

again...?

confusion clearly written on my face, "what... do you mean?" i looked at younghoon who looked the same as them, "younghoon ah, i thought our parents dead in an accident...?" he shook his head, "they survived... actually. you were the one who wasn't fully survived."

a tear escaped from my eye as i asked, "w-what do you mean...?"

"yeonju ah... do you really forget us?", the woman asked again as the grip on my hands become stronger. "calm down honey, she probably did again...", the man patted the woman's shoulder as comfort with a sad expression.

i don't get it...

"what do you mean again? no way you both are my parents. younghoon ah, drive them away from here, they are lying right...? right?", i managed to free myself from the woman's grip as i back paced.

the woman walked closer to me, "no yeonju honey... we are really your parents... listen yeonju we—"

"MY PARENTS ARE DEAD!!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY'RE ALIVE??? AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN I DIDNT FULLY SURVIVED IN THE ACCIDENT?? WHAT HAPPENED???", i covered my ears with my hands and cried out.

a memory suddenly roamed into my mind.

"mom!!! dad!!!"

my skin felt like burning as i ran to the fire, trying so hard to find my parents inside the room, but things were so blurry inside.

"yeonju!!! don't go in there!!!"

and i got hit on my head by a bookshelf. "yeonju!!!" "honey!!! don't go in there!!!" "why is the fire department not coming yet?!!?!"

i keep crying as i fell down on my knees, i can feel my skin is burning even right now. "yeonju!!!", younghoon brought me into his embrace as he whispered, "you're fine... we will explain everything to you..."

-

"you ran into the room because you thought we were inside, but we were with younghoon instead. it was too late when we wanted to stop you, and you ended up getting hit by the bookshelf and lost memories. that time you only remembered younghoon. no matter how hard we approached you, you cried and clung on younghoon, insisted to not see us. so we had no choice but to leave you two.", the woman said, with tears on her cheek.

the man held onto her hand, tightly with a firm smile as he continued, "we took your x-ray sample overseas to know your conditions. the doctor said that you lost your memories due to the stress gotten on your brain, and that you will continue losing your memories easily. we tried to get medicine or any treatment, even if it will cost a lot, but the doctor said that there's nothing we can do with your condition..."

the woman sobbed loudly, "my poor... daughter... what can we do... to make you re... remember us..."

i looked at the boy beside me, he hung a sad smile, looking at me, while rubbing my shoulder. i looked down, how can i accept everything that's in front my eyes right now?

"why are you two here... then?", i asked, boldly made eye contacts with them.

"honey, we actually have a doctor who said can treat your condition. but you will have to follow us to china...", my so-called dad explained.

"yeonju, we will have to move to china in a month...", younghoon said. i looked at him with widened eyes, "i don't want!" my so-called mom stood up shockingly, "yeonju!!! why???"

"what if the three of you are lying...? i don't wanna be separated with my friends... i don't wanna leave here!!! can't the doctor come here instead??", i shouted.

"kim yeonju!!!", the man shouted back at me.

i looked at him, "i... i don't wanna get treated!!!" and a slap landed on my cheek. i held onto my reddened cheek, looking at the man with tears on my eyes that are in verge to roll down.

"you need to go! no matter what!"

"but i don't wanna l—"

"say no more kim yeonju! we already appointed with the doctor and will bring you there next month to get treated!!!", he shouted.

i sniffed and raced to my room, shutting the door loudly and locked the door, even put a heavy metal chair to block the door.

i let all my tears out inside my room, ugly crying.

Sangyeon POV
"okay bye!"

i watched yeonju running away from me. i smiled, she's so cute. my eyes landed on the ground, oh— is that hers?

i picked up the purse and opened to see a polaroid picture of yeonju and younghoon. i guess it really belongs to her. maybe it's a sign for me to be closer to her by today.

-

after shower and lunch, i travelled to yeonju and younghoon place by a cab. i rang on the doorbell and the door creak opened.

"oh sangyeon, what brings you here?", younghoon asked. i held yeonju's purse up high, "she dropped this in school. i wanna return this to her."

he let out a relieved sigh, "ahhh... i see. i will pass it to her then, thank you, i'm sorry that i couldn't let you in because there are guests inside!", he said and snatched the purse from my hand.

"oh... its fine then!"

and that the door slammed on my face, closed.

i sighed in misfortune and left the place, with regrets. i didn't get to meet yeonju— oh is that her under the tree??? the girl is laughing while a boy got shocked by a dog, and the another just stood afar from both of them.

before i can walked to her, she already followed with the two boys.

i sighed again and mumbled to myself, "next time... there's always a next time... nevermind, i will ask hyunjae for her phone number instead." and that i called hyunjae, just for yeonju's phone number.

i sounded ridiculous, but im eager to be friends with her, i don't know why too.

after getting her phone number, i went back home to save her contact and text her. surprisingly... i texted her before. and she was the so-called scammer who texted me first.

i laughed, she's so cute. really.

that drives me crazy. i smiled like a fool in front of my screen.
