Lonna felt bad as she saw the pain in Jin's eyes after she finished explaining. "Krystal is emigrating?" The depression was evident in his voice. "No wonder she was acting so strange yesterday."
"Krystal told me, she's scared of her father." Lonna said. "She said, although he's a businessman, he's also a skilled swordsman. He's a strict and authoritative father. So...once he makes a decision, no one can change it."
"Apparently so." Jin agreed. "Her father is ruthless. I experienced it this morning."
"I know Krystal doesn't want to leave you, but she doesn't know...if she has a choice." Jin let out a loud sigh and Lonna looked down on him with pity.
Suddenly a basketball hit Lonna right in the back of the head. Jin looked up at her concerned. Lonna rubbed her head and looked over to where the ball had come from.
Suga was leaned up against one of the pillars with a wide devilish smile plastered on his face. "Who let you use that daydreamy look?" He asked.
"I wasn't." Lonna whined in pain.
"You're boring. I've got a girlfriend, ok?" Jin said to him.
Lonna looked back at him and frowned. "She's about to leave you...Jin." Once again the sadness could be seen by his expression.
"Auntie." Suga started walking up to him. "The other day I saw you two in a couple's outfit that embarrassed even me. It took courage to do that humiliating thing."
Jin rolled his eyes at Suga's teasing. "Because Krystal...you know, girls like that stuff."
Suga found the way he tried to play it off funny. "But you were smiling. You were cool. I admit defeat. But that's a far cry from this present..." He started making a loud crow sound, making Jin's eyebrow raise in confusion. "Dead crow look of yours." Jin wasn't up for Suga's kind of tough love, so he rolled his eyes and slowly walked away with his broad shoulders slack from the sadness he felt.
Krystal's POV
Krystal was too upset to eat the food in front of her, and the maid that had worked for her family a long time, didn't like it. "Miss, please eat." She begged Krystal. "If you don't want to eat this, I can make you some soup."
"Don't mind her." Krystal's father ordered. The maid bowed in respect before leaving the two of them in the dining room alone.
"Dad." Krystal tried to get his attention. "I've often wondered...if mom were here, would you be like this?"
Krystal was happy to see the uncomfortable look on her father's face. She decided to push him further. "Grandfather told me, that back then, he also opposed of you two marrying. Because you were poor, and not as educated. So mom, at the time, eloped with you."
"Nonsense." Her father said roughly. "That was only in the beginning. Eventually, we got your grandfather's approval."
"Dad, I've seen your pictures. I remember there were several pictures with you and mom wearing couple's outfits. And those were in a type of the most romantic purple." Her father finally cracked a small smile. "Was it because mom liked purple the best?"
"What was a guy doing wearing purple? That was your mom's request." Krystal couldn't help but smile at the look of adoration on her father's face as he talked about her mother.
"Dad, I can imagine mom must've really loved you." Suddenly Krystal's smile turned to a frown. "I wish I could have meet the you from back then. I'm also jealous of mom, because she got the gentle you."
Her father sighed sadly before moving his eyes away from her in guilt. Krystal got up out of her chair and moved behind him, she encircled her arms around his neck and squeezed lightly. "Dad. No matter how big the conflict between us, I still love you very much." She placed her cheek close to his and her father chuckled. "Like mom, I'll always love you."
