KARINA

Finally exams are over. I rushed behind winter and back hugged her and said,

"How was it?"

She sighed and lowered her head. I turned her around and cupped her face,

"It will be fine, now what is more important is let's go out!"

We haven't hung out over two weeks. Winter nodded her head with a wide smile,

"Where should we go?"

I thought and said,

"Let's go to the new cafe!"

She nodded her head and we packed our stuff and headed to the new cafe downstairs.

When we reached there, I ordered my drink and ordered Winter's favorite drink,

Americano

I brought it to our table. I heard winter chuckled,

"I can't believe u still remember."

I smiled as I drank my drink,

"It's your favorite drink how can I not remember..."

Winter stared out of the window and said,

"Now, dad is home for the exams period. I know he is just going to ditch me like that after this period. He has always been like that, I'm sure imma be killed tonight. Btw, thanks for listening to me and treating my hands that time..."

I cupped her face and said,

"It's fine, let's meet at the rooftop again. I can't stand to see all those injuries on you!"

She chuckled and nodded her head. We started doing our homework there. We went home afterwards. Well, all I could hear was shouts and yell. I could not bear but just clench my fist.

WINTER

"Hey Taeyeon, Irene, mom and dad."

"Kim minjeong! Come here now!" Dad bellowed.

I walked nervously to the living room.

"Your teacher called Taeyeon. Said that your grades are the lowest in class. She said that u got 56/100 for science! U know how low that is, your sisters got like 90+. Are u really going to be this dumb like me. Your are such a failure!! I should actually think of a way to punish u! U are really a piece of dumb child that I never wanted. This is why I only bring your sisters out for good things no u. U are a complete failure.  I wish u were never my child. I am leaving tonight, u better do better for next time. Come take out your hands!"

I was tramautized by his remarks. In all his years of scolding me, he never said something like that before. This time when he hit my hand,  I felt something different I felt extremely nervous even  looking at him. After all that beating, my dad and mom picked up the suitcase without saying any goodbye.

Tears followed down my cheeks. Irene was there at that moment as Taeyeon went to the market. She saw me crying, she hugged me and said,

"Minjeong-ah, why are u crying, u have never cried before."

"The words he...said... Unnie, am...I really...a failure?"

Her face hit realization of what may have happened to me. She hugged me even tighter. I cried out hard, no one has ever said those words to me before.

I ran to my room and hid myself in one corner with the door locked. I cupped my knees and the words he said kept repeating in my head.

You are a total failure, I wish u were never born!

I trembled as it lingered in my mind. I could hear Taeyeon shout,

"Minjeong-ah, just don't do anything stupid."

KARINA

It was 1245, but there was no sign of winter. It was strange. She never not make it to our meet ups. I saw her dad and mom left. I took my opportunity to go to winter's house. I knocked on the door. It was her sister.

"Hi, I'm Karina, is winter inside?"

Her older sister nodded her head and said,

"Hello Karina, I'm taeyeon, she is Irene. And yes winter is inside u wanna come in? I'm sure winter has told u about her dad. Well her dad was too harsh on his words. I think that affected her."

I went into the house. I scanned the house and saw the window. I recalled seeing a room at winter's room. I stared at it then looked at Taeyeon. She knew what I was thinking.

"No, Karina. Anything but this." Taeyeon sternly said.

No matter how much I persuade her and Irene, they both objected me climbing into winter's room. I let out a dejected sigh.

"Look, I really love your sister. She is my everything. I wanna do my best to save her. But please don't tell her."

Taeyeon sighed and gave in and told me to contact her about winter's conditions. She knew winter didn't want to talk to alot of ppl, one is enough. Irene grabbed the rope and tied it around karina's waist and said,

"After climbing, pull the rope towards you and keep it. Just in case."

I nodded my head and climbed to winter's room. I held in my breath as I climbed. This was my greatest fear.

Heights

I stared up and walked across to winter's room.  Finally, I reached winter's room. Thank god she opened her window. After pulling the rope to me. I scanned the room for winter. When I saw winter, I ran to her and saw in a mental breakdown and said,

"Unnie...do u think...I am a failure...?"

I shook my head as I hugged her tightly at the corner of her room. She was never one. I circled her back and comforted her. She later fell asleep in my arms. Tears welled my eyes as I saw her state. I updated taeyeon on winter's conditions. I later then placed winter on her bed as I treated her wounds. I felt sympathy. If she is going through depression, she would have a heart time. I couldn't stand to her in this state.

"Winter, I like you really alot. Please don't make me worry." I thought as I stared at winter and moved the hair blocking her face.
