Jihae booted up the tablet and looked at it questionably. In her head, she was worried what would happen to her. She lost her parent, and she didn't even know this middle age man, who claimed to know her parents and would take her parents' place to take care of her.

"Jihae-ah, you'll be starting school with my Hyunjin tomorrow. Is that okay ?" asked the man. To reply, Jihae nodded her head. After setting up her tablet, she opened note app and wrote "How can I address you? I can start school tomorrow but I don't have any supplies."

The man chuckled when he saw the note. Jihae was taken aback because of his reaction. "Don't you worry! everything is all set and you can call me Mr. Hwang." he smiled. Jihae felt a bit uncomfortable with his instant warmth. He had already treated her as his family member. "Come, I'll show you your room." Mr. Hwang went upstairs with Jihae following behind. When they got to the first floor, he pointed to the left of jihae and said that Hyunjin's room was over there and that her room was on her right. He also said that all her belongings had been moved into her room.

"My room is down the stair to the left in front of the study room. Feel free to reach me if you need anything." said the man and then he went down the stair after tapping her shoulder in reassure manner.

Hyunjin peeked from his room and saw everything. He did not believe his eyes that his dad patted her shoulder. He watched every movements of her. She walked up to her room then twisted the door knob. She stood in front of the room for about ten seconds before entering the room. Hyunjin saw and felt annoyed. "What is she ? She acts like she hasn't seen a room for decades!" He whispered to himself annoyingly, then he went to his father.

"Ahjussi, are you taking in another mistress? Is one not enough for you? Woah! I can't imagine you took in and underage girl. probably same age as me! " He mocked his father with his made-up amazement. "Hyunjin-ah, enough" his father replied. "Why ? Why? Am I hitting the point? Don't you afraid of going to jail for having an underage girl as your mistress? " To his surprise, Hyunjin earned a slap from his father. "Stop it will you!! " his father was furious. "What do you think I am, Hyunjin? Are you having enough fun? Mind your own business, Hyunjin! even if I take in another mistress, what are you going to do?" his father left hyunjin and went to his room, shutting the door violently.

Hyunjin was appalled by his father behavior. "Is she worth more than your own child? " Hyunjin said painfully, punched the door then he felt to his room. "Jihae is that your name? you're gonna pay for this."...

Jihae was in her room, grasping what was surrounded her. There was a bathroom on the left. next to it was her closet and a dressing table. In front of her, situated the study table and a window. on her right, that's where the bed was. She went to the bed and sat on it. She felt the bed and bounced herself on it. She went to her closet and opened it. It was full of her clothes. Both new and her old ones were there. Her uniforms was in there as well. She took one of her uniform out, and examined it. She swiped her fingertip across her name tag that was written "MIN Jihae". She dropped the uniform as she heard a loud noise outside. She picked it up and put it back in the closet. Opening the door, She was curious to see the boy walking up the stair curling his fist. He saw her standing right in front of the doorstep. Forgeting about her condition, Jihae opened her mouth and was about to produce a sound. Before that happened, Hyunjin had ignored her and slammed his room door shut.

Jihae went back into her room and tried to say something. She was disappointed as she could only produce random sound that was totally unrecognizable. "Ah ugh oh uuh aah" she let out. She pouted and went to her bed. Lying on her bed and staring at the ceiling, she drift off to dreamland before dinner came.

The dinner was quiet up until Mr. Hwang broke a conversation. "So tomorrow, Jihae is going to school with you, Hyunjin." he said with no emotion. Jihae nodded in agreement but Hyunjin got up from the table. "Who do you think you are by nodding? so rude." He said and showed his despicableness to Jihae. He left the table and said that he was full.

"I'm so sorry for his behavior, Jihae-ah" his father said in a sorrowful tone. When Hyunjin heard his father voice, he was triggered and stormed to his room immediately.....
