Jennie was running upstairs to her room when she stops her steps hearing a lady voice calling her name. "Jennie? Can we talk?" Mrs. Kim looking in Jennie's eyes like she is about to drop a tear. "After I change." Jennie said smoothly and walks upstairs changing her clothes.
Jennie slowly went downstairs while thinking about what her mother wishes to talk about after about two month she shut herself from saying any word to her children. She then sat down on the coach crossing her legs when her mother came she then opens her eyes. "Jennie. Have you ever wondered about the reason that me and your father always fights?" She looks at Jennie trying to find the answer through her daughter eyes that was clearly deep lust in her imaginations. "Whats the real reason?" Jennie said looking coldly towards her mother. "Remember when I said to you that 'You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And you are the one who'll decide where to go.' Your father wants a divorce and he wants you and your brother to be with him so that you guys can take over of his company just in case." Mrs. Kim looks down leaving the tears burst out not caring about how painful her heart is.
Those words rewind in Jennie's mind popping out about Roseanne, realising she had the same problem with her mother she hugs her mother comforting her like how Roseanne would comfort. "Please remember, you can make a difference. It's just a worthwhile, you are loved. You smile is a symbol of hope. I promise. I promise to do whatever I can just to make you smile." Those words hit Jennie's heart so hard that she dropped a tear. Mrs. Kim then hugs her daughter tightly surely showing that she really misses her daughter after many struggles she went through. But the only thing that makes her feel like the problems is not worth thinking is just by being with her daughter. Jennie then assist her mother to her room and decide to sleep with her, just being with her mother brings back all good memories she went through. Jennie spun her head seeing that her mother is asleep she went into her thoughts, 'I have lost and loved and won and cried myself to the person I am today.'

Johnny changed and went to Jennie's room. Seeing the girls she loves the most finally getting together placed a wide smile on his face. He then went downstairs to take a drink, as he walks downstairs he saw Mr. Kim coughing nonstop with pills messed up on the kitchen counter. He then ran towards his father giving him a cup of warm water and tapped his back to make him feel better. While his father id drinking, he took the bottle of the pills and just by reading it broke his heart so much. Without thinking twice he scold- "WHT THE HECK DO YOU TAKE THESE DANGEROUS PILLS?!!" Mr. Kim smirked down his breath and walks away and then he stopped. "You know not-th-hing s-so- Mr. Kim passed out and Johnny rushed quickly and bought him to the emergency centre.
He waited for hours and hours just to get any news from the nurse or the doctor who took the responsibility for his father. Feeling worried he searched more about the pills that his father took.
"Gray Death"
This is a fairly new combo making national headlines. The deadly mixture contains heroin, , carfentanil, and a lesser-known synthetic opiate known as U-47700. It resembles concrete or gravel and is sold on the streets for $10 to $20 dollars. Believe it or not, this cocktail's so lethal it can , no matter your tolerance to opiates. So far, it's mainly impacting areas like the Gulf Coast, Georgia, and Ohio, but authorities around the nation are keeping a close eye on this new drug and hoping to control the spread.
Johnny shook his head frustratedly he runs his hands through his hair letting himself burst to tears reading the fact that the pill that Mr. Kim took was a really dangerous drug that could totally kill him right at the moment he took it. 'Please don't god.. Please...' he prayed there and the nurse came to him. "He is still doing fine at this moment, but if you feel like something is wrong quickly free the red button near the patients bed. He is also still not awake yet. You may go to ER 308" The nurse then left him after giving him the news. He quickly rushed and head to the room and seeing his father laying down closing his eyes with an oxygen mouth on his mouth while his hand with an iv drip during his sleep, bursts him out in tears he enters with a heavy heart. He holds his fathers hand "D-dad. You said that you are the wisest man alive for I know one thing, and knowing that you wanted to kill yourself is the only thing you hid away from us..Why?..I Love you and thank you are for those who inspire you and don't even know it. For me, it's you dad... Thank You So Much for your effort dad.."
"S-son. T-thank y-you , t-take care and please replace my place. A-also don't worry about the pressure or the responsibility. Just live in it, have fun, and when everything seems to be going right, just stay humble and remember that your m-mother and y-your s-sisster is now your responsibility..." And for that he stops breathing. Johnny freaking out and presses the red button near his bed. The doctors and nurses starts to gather around him while Johnny who is lost by the last words from his dad. He waited outside crying heavily. The same nurse approaches him- "I am so sorry for your lost." she then left Johnny crying a mess there for hours until he went back home seeing Jennie and Mrs. Kim sitting on the coach praying. "M-momm... I'm sorry..." He kneeled down crying, again.
