EUNHEE'S POV

I went home after work that day and decided to order pizza for dinner, I was too tired to cook that night.

I got out my phone, and started dialing in the number.

"Hi, can I ge-" I stopped and stared at the wall...

SPIDER, SPIDER, SPIDER, SPIDER, SPIDER, SPIDER, SPIDER, SPIDER

"Hello...?" I heard a voice come from my phone. "Helloooo?"

I hung up the phone and immediately called my dad.

"Eunhee..." He started.

"THERE'S A SPIDER TELL ME WHAT TO DO!"

I heard him sigh, "I'll come over."

"Oh... Okay.."

I was so confused. He's usually a really cheerful person, that's where I get it from.

I wonder what's wrong...

Soon enough, I heard a knock at the door.

"Coming!" I sang as I skipped to the door.

I stopped and stared at the door handle, I was in a really happy mood and needed to be prepared for it to be ruined. I guessed that my father had some bad news.

I opened the door and let him in.

"Ah... Eunhee." He smiled softly, with a sad look in his eye. "I need to tell you  something."

"Yes. Okay. But-"

"Yes I will get rid of the spider first." He walked over and took the spider outside.

We then went and sat at the table, sitting across from each other.

"What is it, dad? Did something happen at work?" I asked

He nodded, looking nervously at his hands.

"Tell me... I'm worried."

"Well..." He began. "Do you remember  Jinsoo?"

"Yeah..." My heart started to race.

"Well he... Uh, it's hard to take in, but..." He paused.

"But...?"

"He committed suicide today." He blurted it out quickly.

I furrowed my eyebrows, confused. "But why?" I asked him.

"He felt as if no one loved him, no one needed him or understood him." He  sighed.

Tears started to form in his eyes. "I was there, I saw it all! I tried to help but nothing worked!" He couldn't hold in his tears.

"It's okay... It wasn't your fault." I told him.

"That's why I didn't visit yesterday, I was in court."

"Wait, but-"

"Jinsoo's son walked up when his father jumped off our work building, and from his perspective, it looked like I pushed him off. I was only trying to stop him from  jumping..."

"Oh my- Is his son okay, though?"

"He will be. He's angry at me, he still believes I killed his father.

"It'll be okay, father. It will be okay." I shot him a warm smile.

"Thank you, Eunhee." He smiled back.

"Do you want to stay for dinner? I was only ordering pizza." I asked him.

"Hmm, I don't know..." He thought for a while.

"It will take your mind off things." I added.

"Okay, I'll stay for dinner."

We sat and talked over a couple slices of pizza, it lasted longer than I thought it would.

"Oh wow, look at the time! I better get home." Dad stood up.

"Oh haha, okay." I laughed looking at the time on my phone.

I gave him a big hug. "Everything will be back to normal soon." I whispered.

"I hope so. Thank you Eunhee. If you ever need to talk to me, I'll always, I repeat, ALWAYS, be here for you." He ruffled my hair.

"Yahhh, my hair!" I giggled, "Thank you, bye!" I said cheerfully before turning around and cleaning up.

I got ready for bed and was soon falling asleep to the sweet sound of  rain tapping the roof.

NAMJOON'S POV

I was walking around the empty streets, not caring about being soaked in the rain.

FLASHBACK

"DAD!" I screamed as he picked me up and spun me in circles. I couldn't stop laughing.

He put me down and I stood in front of him, "Daddy, you're the only friend I have." I looked down and sighed.

"Are you having trouble at school?" He asked.

I nodded, "But I have you, so it's okay." I said cheerfully.

"You'll always have me, my son." He smiled.

END FLASHBACK

"You left me." I said angrily. "You didn't leave me... He took you away!" I yelled.

"Why does it have to be this way?!" I cried.

"I want you back, father. I need you here... There's no one else."

EUNHEE'S POV

I woke up the next morning, and watched as the rain continued to pour.

I lazily walked to the bathroom, and had a long hot shower.

I then walked to the kitchen as I dried my hair, getting some breakfast.

"I hope today is a good day..." I whispered to  myself.

I sat at the table and ate in  silence, listening to the  rain.

I jumped when I heard my phone start to ring next to me.

"Hello?"

"Eunhee! Do you want to visit me tomorrow? I planned a really fun day!" I could hear the excitement in my father's voice.

"Ah... I know it's the weekend, but, I have work... I'm so sorry." I sighed.

"That's okay, we'll do it another time."

"Okay, thank you. Love you!"

"I love you too, Eunhee."

I hung up and walked to the kitchen to put my plate away.

I skipped to the couch, jumped on it and turned on the TV happily.

"Two hours until I have to go to work... Yeah this works." I put on the Kdrama I was watching at the  time, and watched it until I had to leave for work.

NAMJOON'S POV

"Mr. Park... Mr. Park..." I repeated this for ages.

"He must have worked at the same place my dad did." I told  myself.

"I wonder if he's working today. I wonder what his family is like. I wonder if they hate him too. I wouldn't be surprised if he killed his wife, that's if he actually had one..."

I thought to myself for a while, "I've gotten away with it before... I can do it again."
