●I'LL WAIT FOREVER●||J.Jk FF||

||6. HARDSHIP||

Y/N POV

It has been six months now since my uncle died....Aunt didn't allow me at his funeral....she turned into a whole different person after she turned into a widow...Jong Suk left Seoul in search of a job and asked me to take care of her needs until he sent some money from his salary every month....I already told her about my job but she didn't even react to it ...I felt like she didn't care about me anymore....She did not....after all she was the one who wanted me dead that day instead of her own husband...My mom and dad called me in these months many times but I didn't bother to receive their calls....they didn't even come for uncle's funeral....business mattered more for them instead of their own family maybe? I grew hate for them eventually , Mom would call MRS LEE to know about me but she didn't even bother to tell how I was....

Y/N : Aunt your breakfast is ready....*you shouted from downstairs*

MRS. LEE : ....

Y/N : AUN- *you were about to shout again but saw her coming downstairs...her cold aura was plastered on her face *

you both started having breakfast...the whole room was quiet...MRS.LEE was fiddling with her spoon not bothering to eat...

Y/N : Aunt...your food is getting cold....you should have it qui-

*you got interrupt when she suddenly got up from her chair and came rapidly towards where you were sitting.....you knew what was coming next...She pulled your hair and this sudden impact make you get up from the chair stumbling....she started dragging you as if you were an object...an object which was needed t be gotten rid of...she threw you on the floor mattress and started chocking you....you tried your best to remove her hands from your neck but nothing was working....your face was slowly turning red....blood flow through your neck was nearly stopping for the pressure she applied on it....the immense pressure caused tears to automatically to roll  down your cheeks.....You not being able breathe anymore, you applied all your strength to give her a sudden harsh push which caused her to stumble backwards and fall on the cold floor.....*

Y/N POV

I started coughing holding my neck...I guess it has already left its mark....I looked at my aunt just to find her looking coldly at the floor, she was getting up...I thought she was about to attack me again....

MRS LEE : I was trying to get rid of a burden ...nothing else ...*she said and left *

She had Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) ....[a mental health condition that's triggered by a terrifying event]...when she started showing the symptoms of this disorder I consulted the doctor....he said the best way was to keep her in an mental hospital for a few months....her treatment could have made it better....I did not want that...taking her to a mental hospital would make the people think she  was a mad woman but none knew what loss she was facing...they society never tried to understand her after her husband's death ....I never did tell JONG SUK about these scenes which were now a daily routine in the house....I did not want to tell him she was facing mental issues...maybe he would think I was lying and say I was finding flaws about his mom because I have to take her responsibility....all these thoughts were a obstacle of telling him the truth...He was now in Germany...he said he was a dealer or something like that....I never knew what things he used to deal with....I never wanted to know though....He barely called me and of the eyes I keep on MRS LEE  to make sure she did not try to do something worse with herself ,I saw her talking to him barely 2 times a month maybe?....I didn't know what had gotten into him....I didn't bother that much  with me working day and night in the cafe just to manage the daily expenses of the house and needs of MRS LEE...

It was already night and I was now in my room sitting on the bed thinking about my current life....I was not enjoying it for sure...my college life was about to end in a few months...I was going to graduate soon...I didn't got time to think about my next plan...what was I gonna do after graduation ? I could not work forever in a cafe ....I had zero plans in hand...opening my phone I found 14 missed calls from my mom and 5 from my dad ...."what do they want now?" that's all  what I thought...."1 unread message from MOM" was on the notification bar as always...you never replied any of her texts....you were disappointed...you did not hate them but was just disappointed....

Y/N MOM's text : Too busy to pickup a single call honey ? Only if I could say how much I missed you...the urge to come and talk with you about your life and most importantly you ....how are you Y/N-AH ? do you hate your mom so much that you don't even wanna ask how we are doing here ? Your Appa is bankrupt honey....He had taken up a loan long back ago for opening up his own business...the loan amount was a heavy one...his business was going well but one of his employee who used to check on the monetary matters of the company betrayed us by stealing all the money which the company earned all these years with so much hard work of him and his fellow employees....we have no money in ours hands now...we couldn't pay off the loan money every month anymore so the bank is not allowing us to go to any other place or country because they think we might flee away...the other employees are demanding their salary when we have no money in hands.....we have police around us everywhere to make sure we don't run away....We are not happy here Y/N ah as you think....I promise to come to you ASAP the problem is solved...take care till then sweetheart....good night....

Y/N : Good night....(you replied her msg for the first time in a while...you felt like it...you never knew they were suffering so much...you were not alone suffering here too...)
