Cursed Love

Episode 3 New Start

13 years later, Ah Rin is now 17 years old and she is packing because she is going to move to Seoul where her grandmother lives and will stay with her. (She is from Gwangju, South Korea by the way) Lee Rin decides that living in Seoul will give her a new start to have friends and live freely. But Ah Rin said that wasn't necessary. Lee Rin ignored her opinion and gave her ticket for the plane flight.
"Now go, I packed your stuff and you have your passport," Lee Rin said leading her to the door with Ah Rin's luggage, "come on." She signaled.

(Again ignore the person in the background)

"But I don't want to go," Ah Rin gave her basic reason.
"Sweetheart, I know you don't want to go, but it's for your own good. Your new life awaits. You can make try to make friends, go on dates and besides you can have a chance to break the curse. You always talked about breaking the curse," Lee Rin said giving Ah Rin some hope, "I know you can break it, now come on." Lee Rin helped her luggage out and Ah Rin came out looking sad.
"Okay I'll go, but you have to promise to come and visit. No excuses," Ah Rin said with a blank face.
"Okay I will. I love you sweetheart," Lee Rin gave Ah Rin a hug, "I am going to miss you so much. "Lee Rin starts tearing up but Ah Rin didn't show affection just nodded her head.
"Okay aunt cry, I will see you again," Ah Rin pulled out of the hug.
"Yes, right... well bye kiddo, I will give you good luck. Oh I almost forgot, this is a gift from your mother before you arrived in this world... a bracelet of luck," Lee Rin handed Ah Rin the bracelet.
"My mom, wanted to give me this?" Ah Rin looked at the beautiful bracelet.
"Yes, she was excited to have you but then you know, but I know everything will be ok-" Lee Rin got interrupted by Ah Rin's hug.
"Thank you, I have to go now?" Ah Rin still said with a straight face.
"You're welcome. Bye," Lee Rin watches Ah Rin go with tears filling in her eyes with happiness.

Ah Rin's POV
I guess this is where my life begins.
I extended my hand so a taxi driver can come and notice me, of course. Luckily one pulls over. "Thank you sir, take me to the nearest airport please," I say giving him the place I wanna go.
"Alright... weirdo," he starts driving. That was rude.

I put my ear buds on listening to soothing music.I look at the bracelet that my aunt gave me from my mother. I am about to tear up but I can't let that happen, not now, so I just close my eyes for a moment.
1 hour later, "Hey paper bag young lady, we're here," I hear the taxi driver's voice talking to me.
"Oh right! I'm sorry sir," I got out and gave him my money and went inside the airport. Alright now I have to book the flight. "Hello I am here to go on a flight to Seoul please."
"Yeah ok, here is your stuff and the flight is going to leave in a couple minutes, so get going." She said and gave me attitude. She has a nice personality. I rush to the air plane and took my seat. I am against a window which was nice, but the guy next to me was a bother.

It was a chubby guy who was sweaty and smelled bad. He took out his chips and noticed me looking at him.
"Umm... hi... do you want some?" He offered me chips.
"No thank you, enjoy them," I say giving him a slight nod.
"Why do you wear a paper bag? It's strange," he said looking at me.
"Because... it's not your business," I say back at him.
He just began eating his chips like I wasn't here. It disturbed me so I just put my earbuds on listen to music. Life brings me unfair things to do. I hate it.
3 hours and a half later I arrived to Seoul, finally. It was the worst flight ever. The guy that sat next to me had an upset stomach and barfed luckily I didn't have Bart on me, but it stank. I hate flying now. Now I have to go to my grandmother's house and meet her. 30 minutes later I arrive at a beautiful house. I knocked on the door and then I smelled something good and delicious. It smelled like chocolate cake. Someone opens the door and it was my grandmother.
"Oh my, my granddaughter is here! But inside a paper bag. Sweet heart why are you wearing a paper bag? It's strange," my grandma says giving me a confused look.
"It's a long story. All I have to say is that my face is a curse, that's all," I gave her my reason.
"Alright, alright... let me show you around. So, my house isn't that big because I like my house small. Come in sweetheart!" Grandmother said with a welcome tone. I go in with my luggage and see pictures of kids and babies. "So, over here is the kitchen, and then here is the living room. Let's go in your room." I followed her to my new room. "So here is your room, I saved it just for you. It used to be your mother and your aunt's room. Sweetheart I know what happened and I'm sorry, but don't let this terrible cause effect you. Your mother was dear to me. Believe me I love my daughter and I am going to treat you the same way that I did with your mother and aunt. I will take very good care of you and whenever you are sad, I will be there to help you. I know about your curse and you have to get rid of it." My grandmother looked at me with warning eyes.
"I know, but why do you make it seem like I better get rid of the curse as soon as possible? Is something dangerous going to happen to me?" I asked really curious and worried.
"Ah Rin... if you stay with the curse till the blood moon you will stay with the curse forever and will remain lonely," my grandmother scared me about that. She looked at me all serious, but then smiled. "Don't worry I have faith in you, to get rid of the curse. Let's go eat dinner now." She said looking happy, but I was worried, I don't want to live with this stupid curse... forever.
We sat around the table and ate rice and Kimchi, it was really good.
"So, what do you do? Like hobbies," she asked me while eating her rice.
"Well I like playing guitar and singing to myself. I love reading books, and I took some Taekwando classes but they kicked me out since I was too rough on other students. I have a dog but he didn't come with me here," I said with a disappointing voice when I told her about Pika.
"Oh I see, you must love it back home," my grandmother thought.
"It was okay..." I said and remained silent.
"So, I decided to put you in a new school. I already applied you there and I have your uniform, here," she gave me my uniform. I took it but I have problems with going to school.
"I'm not going to school," I say in a serious position.
"And why is that? Are you afraid of doing the same thing to that school like you did to the other one?" My grandmother asks. I shook my head in concern. "Haha! Sweetheart, it's not going to happen again. I assure you." She stops laughing and gives a caring look.
"Sorry grandmother but it's not happening, I'm totally not going to school. So if you'll excuse me I will go to my room now, goodnight." I say walking to my room with my uniform by hand.
"You will go to school sweetheart," grandmother said in an evil tone.
When I arrive in my room I started to put everything where it belongs, but I had some help from my magic. So in case you know, yes I have magic and powers. But I think of myself as a normal person. When I'm done I lied on my bed and began to get tired and fell asleep. Tomorrow is going to be a new day.
