"Tae, I had a mother until last year. She died and now I'm all alone." A gasp forms in my throat and with effort I'm able to hold it back. "Before my mommy died, she told me who my father was. She told me to contact him, and he'd help me. I did, Tae, and I got no response. T-That's how I got into this mess."

My bottom lip quivers hearing him refer to his mother as mommy – it's so precious and childlike. I feel a growing anger for Daesung deep in my core. I shake my head to force out those negative thoughts and feelings and refocus on him.

"l couldn't pay for my apartment after a while. My mom left me jewelry and some money. It was enough to help me survive for a year or more. But then I meet Daesung, and I was stupid and told him too much." He lowers his chin to his chest and shakes his head. "I think Daesung had someone steal my money and jewelry. He said he'd take care of me and would be my boyfriend. He took my virginity. I didn't want to, but I needed his help, so I did it." My anger turns quickly to rage, and I remind myself to breathe.

"Ivory, he manipulated you and so did my boyfriend. You were vulnerable and he used you. That doesn't make you a bad person, but it makes him a despicable human being. You deserved better." His chin rises and a hint of a smile touches his lips as he continues.

"He was like important, so l felt I was lucky to be his boyfriend. He bought me nice clothes and took me out to expensive restaurants. I thought he loved me."

"Ivory, my abusive boyfriend did the same at the beginning. But then he changed. He became possessive and abusive."

"Yeah, that's what happen to me. A few months ago, Daesung said I'd have to sleep with other men to pay my way. I didn't want to do that." I grit my teeth and listen to his sad story. All I know is that Daesung is going down.

"He never made me. He'd offer me and then would stop it. He said he didn't want anyone else fucking his main bitch. But last month in the limo with Chany, he offered me to him, right there in front of his armed thugs and I wanted to vomit. I couldn't get out of it, so I started touching Chany and smiling. I just wanted to burst into tears and run away." I can feel bile rising in my throat as I listen.

"Ivory I'm so sorry you had to go through that. You now have me, Kookie and others." He squeezes my hand.

"Tae, I knew I had to run away. I watched and waited for my chance. And then it appeared. Before I left, I went by my old apartment and the landlord gave me a letter."

"It was from a man with the same family name as my dad, Lee. He said he was my brother and that our father had died two years ago. And my dad had been looking for me." I sit straight up as a feeling of hope rises in me. Maybe something positive for this sweet soul that deserves so much more than he's received.

"Tae, he said he was moving to South Korea and wanted to get to know me. He said my dad had left me something. He asked if I needed any money, and I said no. I lied and said I was fine and I was a student." I gasp.

"Ivory, why didn't you let him help you?"

"l was too ashamed, because I'm a dirty whore like Daesung said and the only thing I'm good for is sucking his dick and being fucked." I just want to cry because his story is so close to my own.

"I researched this guy and he's wealthy. He said all these good things about who I was. I can't meet him. He'll reject me." Ivory says as he softly sobs. And lowers his head again.

I lift his chin and look into his soft eyes.

"Ivory, that's Daesung's voice in your head. You're smart, brave, compassionate, sweet, and loving. Can we start again? l want to help you and so does Ms. Lisa. Well figure it out together. You never have to be alone again. I promise you I'll do better than I did earlier." He shows me a smile that reaches his eyes and gives me a very tight hug.
