Jin's p.o.v
Ever since I was born I was told that 'life is a race' and to win that race I had to speak,eat,act and move certain ways.I wasn't allowed to laugh out loud or even smile more than a few seconds since my father considered it to be meaningless.
I even used to copy my brother because father would always be happy with what brother achieves.He was his favorite son.
I can't complain,why? because I love my hyung as much as my father does, because I understand why my father favors him.
Even though he would smile and laugh heartedly,it was fine by my father because he is a perfect son and a perfect business man.
Father need not even scold him or guide him and he would still do work so much better than me.I aspired to be like him.
Father would always tell me to surpass my brother because hyung had surpassed father.
Even though I did surpass father I never surpassed my brother but I would still try my best to do better than him.It was my mission.
And in that mission I suppressed all my emotions because father always told me that emotions are nothing but a hinder in work.
I didn't had a problem with anything that my family used to tell me to follow because I thought that was how everyone lives.
I was content with what I had because father was happy with my work,mom was proud of me and the world was finally accepting me as a fit heir.All that was left for me to achieve was to surpass brother.Just one step less.
But...why?why is my family worried about me? I'm healthy, successful,the ideal son that mother and father wanted me to be.Then why?
I don't want to leave America.
