Jin's perspective

             I feel myself swing my head side to side while I turn up the volume on my USB speaker. It blasts 'Run' by Girls Generation. I don't know why, but maybe I should focus ib my career than listening to these songs. Hopefully.
             My head continues to tetter and totter while the next song comes on. My hands grips onto the steering wheel. A 'Benz' logo was smacked right in the middle.

...

            "Yumi, I have a surprise for you."
            "Huh, what is it?" Her digital voice speaks.
            "You know im in Korea, Seoul?"
            "Yeah, what about that?"
            "I'm coming to Japan, Tokyo."
I could hear her tears of joy streaming down her face along with a high squeal.
            "I'm not moving here because of you, well that's a part of the reason too..."
             "Huh?"
             "Its my mother, she's made a decision because father cheated on her with a woman I don't know." I say.
             "Oh... *sniff* okay! I'll pick you up at the airport?"
             "Yeah, sounds good, c'ya."

...

            Tears stream down my face when a picture of my father's shaggy black hair come in contact with me, hugging like he'd never see me again. Which was true. So true in fact I had to pull over and find myself weep on the the steering wheel. That night, my mother tried her best to make me feel like nothing had happened. I bang my arms on the leather covered steering wheel and find myself place it down onto the Benz logo. The metal plate runs a cold stream down my forehead, though it wasn't enough to calm me down. My mother said, "Don't worry, It'll be alright, it's not your fault... Calm down..."
              At least I thought it would've been okay, if she hadn't passed the day after.
