Tainted Heart

Chapter 37

In the evening,

Yoongi and Gyuri were watching their childhood photo album clinging onto each other and Moon was watching them from afar being jealous.

Yerin was pestering her to taste a cupcake that she made for Yoongi and Gyuri. At a moment, she felt irritated and pushed her in anger. Yerin collided with Yunhee's mother who was coming towards them with tray of food causing her hurt due to the glass. Her hand got cut resulting bleeding.

Yoongi and Gyuri were near them. So they rushed towards Min Eun-ji first. The others also came hearing the chaos.

"Watch out, Lee Miyeon." Yoongi yelled taking his aunt to nearby couch.

"I am fine. I am fine. It's not her fault." Eun-ji said.

Moon's eyes were on the blood on floor. Her mind went years back when her mother was covered with blood, Sun-hi was covered with blood. She thought of her nana.

'Poor Chae-yeon, lost her second kid because of her first one.'

'Did she really kill her unborn brother?'

'How cruel? Poor parents for having such kid.'

'Appa.....save me. Eomma...appa.'

'Appa....eomma...appa....appa...'

Moon couldn’t hear all the chaos in front of her. She was hearing only those words. She could only see a kid drowning in the pool and screaming for her life but no one saving her, not even her parents who were arguing with each other at a little distance. She could see the kid drowning in the pool being unconscious.

She turned around and rushed to upstairs and locked the door behind her. She felt suffocated real bad. She didn’t mean to hurt anyone yet every time, every time, she hurt someone close to her.

Time skips,

Min Jae-jin, Yunhee's father treated his wife's wound. Moon didn’t come out of the room despite Yunhee calling her for many times. Yerin apologised to Min Eun-ji for zillion times even though she had no fault.

A maid came there and bowed, "Madam, someone came to meet Miyeon. Should I send them inside?" she asked and Yunhee nod.

It was Ryung and Sun-young. They both bowed awkwardly.

"Mianhae for coming here uninvited. But could you please tell us where is Miyeon?" Sun-young asked and bowed 90°.

"Eonnie is in upstairs. She is not opening the door tho." Bora replied.

"Take the staircase and go right. The third one." Yunhee said.

Sun-young gestured Ryung and he nod. Ryung excused himself and went towards the room.

Sun-young looked at the injured hand of Yunhee's mom. Realising that, Eun-ji spoke up, "It was an accident. She didn’t do anything. None of us blames her."

Sun-young nervously smiled, "I know you don't. But the real thing is, she does."

Sun-young kept strolling around as she was stressing. She then stopped. "Do not mind. But did any of you yell at her?" she asked slowly.
