COLD BLOOD - Hera kids

8- The Wounded Heart

             THE WOUNDED HEART

"Is there another way for us to do all these desire of yours, Logan?" I plead in silence as I waited for his response.

My beliefs—behind those stone cold numbing shield of his, is a guy who just wanted to teach the kids a lesson.

Or at least that's what I've been hoping for, I don't want to get involved when it comes to those kids who had been nothing but nice to my daughter.

They had welcomed her warmly and getting involved on making them suffer just doesn't sound right, just by thinking about it is making My wounded heart ache.

I had wondered the day before how those kids can be so awfully frightening and pityfully in the same time.

I had wondered what had their parents did to educate them to turn them into that version of themselves.

The day the kids stepped in the room and greeted me made me doubt what had Logan told me, because if you're gonna look at their innocent faces you would see how welcoming can they be.

How could innocent kids like them do things like that?

But then after all one of the things I had learned when I met Logan is how looks can be deceiving.

And the preys(kids) parents proved me that. I couldn't even mask my amusement and disgust as I saw how they behave, apparently they didn't even bother hiding their nasty sentiments.

"There is no other way and it's not just a desire, it's a need." My thoughts got pushed in the back as his answer now filled my head with questions I couldn't even answer myself.

Logan is starting to get obsessed on finding out who had really killed Min Seol-A, making his head fill up with nothing but plots of how will he get his revenge.

The poor girl wanted nothing but for her to find her mother and achieve her dreams, along with her puppy who she had learned to love exceedingly.

It didn't surprise me at all, for what I had known she was always alone and had nothing to hold on but her dreams and goal.

So she get fond of the fluffly dog who had been there for her when she has no one.

I can't really blame Logan for wanting the kids to suffer and make them pay for their mistakes cause at the end of the day if Rona experienced the same Min Seol-A go through I'd do the same.

But they're just teenagers just like Seol-A, they make mistakes that they impulsively did.

"I'll do nothing to them. That isn't my part to do." I responded after a long silence, looking down to avoid his eyes.

***

I sigh heavily, accepting my defeat of convincing him to leave the kids alone. I don't have any courage left to ask him again and again just to get my suggestions rejected.

What did I exactly expect from him?

He also has a relentless weeping heart.

The thought of that makes me want to laugh, we're not that different from each other as I thought we are.

We're both pathethically desperate for some answer of why the things just happened like that.

Same situation but not same reasons.

Now that made me wonder, how long can we keep this up without anyone suspecting a thing? Surely they're not that dumb, are they?

Maybe we're the problem. Us. The pathethic excuse of the population.

All of us have reasons for why are we letting ourselves feed into the greediness that letting us fall into a pit of darkness.

But I most certainly not letting my daughter follow my path, just like everyone else did.

I guess it's that hard to avoid into falling in it, huh? I was genuinely surprised to discover Shim Su-ryeon's kids did that.

After all Eonnie raised them.

Maybe I should get some sleep.

I feel like I'm drowning on my own thoughts, as they all gather around to stress me further.

Ha Euncheol even included himself, as if all that I've been handeling isn't enough.

Does he want to open the healing wound again? I don't doubt it will open if he continue on pushing my shield, breaking through.

After all, it's not near as turning into a scar like the scar on my neck that his wife caused.

My ideal life didn't get crushed of course, I got married into a ruthless yet rich guy, however I didn't get satisfied at all.

The love that I have given the selfish man is the one I couldn't get back but the unjustice thing Cheon Seo Jin did to me is what put me into the edge.

I would let myself get into heaven and back but I would never let her get the satisfactory of winning.

The fight isn't done yet, just so you wait Cheon Seo Jin.
