"I got a call today," My mom tells me, setting a plate of food down on the table. I shrug and wait for her to keep speaking. "It was from your teacher,"

"Mr. Kim?" She nods and folds her arms across her chest. Oh no, what did he say to her? Hopefully I'm not in any trouble- "You caused a boy to have a panic attack?" I gulp and swallow hard.

"I didn't mean to-"

"Oh so you did cause him to have a panic attack?" My face flushes and lower my gaze to the table. "Cho, you're supposed to be a good example of our family,"

"I..I'm sorry, I didn't mean to! All I wanted to do was apologize,"

"For what?" Mom raises her eyebrow at me, and I feel my heart pounding.

"Remember Sunghoon?" Her eyes narrow and she calls Dad with a loud voice. "No! Don't tell him- please don't-" She puts her hand up, making me shut my mouth.

"Yes?" Dad asks wondering what's wrong with us. I can't believe my mom is telling Dad that Sunghoon is back.

"Park Sunghoon is back in town," Mom says irritably.

"Oh? He is? Why didn't you tell us, Cho?" I shift uncomfortably in my chair.

"Dad, we're not dating anymore," I state, "I just wanted to say sorry,"

"You SPOKE to him?!" My dad booms and then my younger brother walks in with wide eyes. "Jisung- go to your room- NOW!"

"But Dad there's-"

"Do what I told you!" Dad glares at me not even looking at Jisung. Jisung runs away, leaving me alone to face my parents.

"We forbidden you to talk to that boy-"

"I know, Dad...but it's been a year..." I mumble, my throat tightening.

"Why did he come back?? To make you marry him??"

"We loved each other!" I yell, this time looking straight into my dad's eyes. My parents gasp and my dad raises his hand. I cup my stinging cheek and hold back a sob.

"You're such a fool, to fall in love with a Park!" He spat angrily and tells me go to my room.

"I swear, I didn't kiss him, Dad! I promise!" I try to reason, "Please, I just wanted to apologize for being so cruel to him-"

"Don't you dare backtalk to me, young lady! Go to your room! We'll see what we're going to do with you later..."

I get up from my chair and run upstairs, letting my tears fall down my face finally. I slam my bedroom door shut and cry on my bed. My cell phone rings but I ignore the comforting k-pop sounds. I hate you, Sunghoon! If you had not come back, I- we would have been okay! Why didn't you stay there?!
