Hey guys! I'm sorry that this chapter took longer than usual. I was at band camp and too exhausted to even move, let alone write. But I am back and I am working on more chapters and I hope they're good enough for you to forgive me! Enjoy!

MiNa

She broke down.

After the new transfer student had left and she had shut her office door, she slid onto the floor and broke down.

The shock had finally worn off. And it hurt. It hurt so bad that she doubled over, clutching at her chest, and failed at trying to keep her sobs silent.

She gave that man every part of her and loved him with everything she had.

Another sob racked through her body, the pain intensifying.

How could this have happened? What had she done wrong to cause him to run into the arms of another woman? Because she tried so hard to do it all. Even when she picked up more hours at work and her work started piling up for this promotion, she still managed to cook dinner for him, cleaned the house, did his laundry, listen to him when he had a rough day, ran him baths, showed him how much she loved him and it still wasn't enough.

Why wasn't her love enough?

Why wasn't she enough?

So many emotions fought within her, overwhelming her, and she did the one thing she thought would help.

She called her big brother.

"Hello?" He answered in English, which surprised MiNa.

"Kiki?" She whispered, her eyes filling with tears again.

"Mimi?" He question, before quickly switching over to Korean and asking "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"

So, she told him, having to stop multiple times to collect herself because he couldn't understand her when she attempted to talk while sobbing.

When she finished, her brother let out a string of curse words, in both Korean and English, before ending with an angry "I'm going to have him fucking neutered."

And despite the situation, she laughed. Kiseok always had a way of making her laugh, no matter what was wrong.

Her phone vibrated and she looked down to view the incoming text.

'One new message from: My Love <3

She only started at the screen, not comprehending.

"Mimi?" Her brother asked, worried she'd hung up.

It was like her entire world had come crashing down. Again.

She suddenly grabbed all of her things and ran out of her office and locked herself into her car before breaking down once again.

And she randomly thought, 'Thank God for tinted windows.'

She'd forgotten she was still on the line with her brother until he called her name again, causing her to jump.

"Sorry." She whispered, attempting to keep the tears at bay.

"Mimi, what happened?"

She took a shaky breath before voicing one of her biggest fears.

"He wants a divorce."

This time, her sibling didn't curse. It had, instead, gone silent.

"Kiseok?"

"MiNa, I love you. And because I love you and it's my job to protect my little sister, I'm telling you to give it to him. Give him the divorce. There is no reason you should be with him. You do not need him financially and that fucker sure as hell doesn't deserve to call you his wife. If he is willing to give up his wife and family, then you do not need him. And Minseul does not need someone so neglectful in her life."

She sighed, no longer capable of crying. "Kiki, I will call you back. I need to clear my head and I'm about to start driving."

"Okay, little sister. Be safe." They hung up and she pulled out of the parking lot and just drove, with no specific destinination in mind.

She thought through every detail.

Why did this have to happen to her?

Three hours later, she pulled back into her parking space and cut the engine off, tiredly running her hand down her face.

She was drained.

But she had made a decision.

However, there was a bigger problem, believe it or not.

She called her brother back and waited patiently for him to pick up.

"Hello?"

"Ki, I need you to do something for me."
