DAY 15 OF SEPARATION- 

🐇 

I have been looking for him everywhere in Californa. I have even hired people to look for him but they have also come empty-handed. There is no sign of him, it seems as if he has been whipped from existence, at least here in California. I will give it one more week, but if we still can't find him then I will extend that reach for the rest of the fifty states and maybe the other continents as well. I know that is selfish of me to look for him, especially after the horrible way that I have treated him but I can't help it. I miss him. 

I miss seeing him run around the property in the early morning from my window. When he ran he looked so calm but behind that calmness, there was a young man that carries his family's company and name on his shoulders since a young age. He has been the image of his family, his every move was looked upon under a microscope, any wrong move and the reputation of his family will suffer.  He was an example to follow for the children of other families, he has been the model for others to follow. But when he makes a mistake, even the smallest one, he is harshly judged. 

In these passing days, I had the great honor to speak with Jinyoung's gardener and chef, they had told me their names but I have forgotten them. While I was speaking to them, via face time, they told of Jinyoung's childhood. When they spoke of him it was as if they were speaking of their own kid, but at the same time, it seemed as if they were speaking of a wise man, a man that that has seen the worst of the world due to the time in which he was born. 

They both told me of the hardships that Jinyoung faced as a young child not only in school but also in the comfort of his own home. They said that his parents and siblings will go out and leave him behind, even as a toddler. Their excuse was that he was too young to be doing the activities that they wanted to do. When he was a toddler, it was because he caused too much trouble. When he was a teen it was because he needs the time to improve on his academics. At every point of his life, they had an excuse to not invite him. As time passed and Jinyoung grew older, he just gave up and focused his time on something else. 

The chef stated that despite his hard reality, Jinyoung was a gentle soul that all he wanted was to live in a fair world that contained the understanding and no harsh judgment. As we spoke she recalled a time where Jinyougn defended a boy, the boy had been accused of hitting another student until the point of passing out. The accused boy was none other than Jinyoung's bully. Jinyoung, instead of backing up the false accusations, he used all his free time to prove the bully's innocence and he accomplished it. Jinyoung did not care that the accused boy bother him, or that even after he helped him, the boy went back to being his jerky self. He just wanted justice and for the real culprit to pay. Both the gardener and the chef had tears in their eyes as they recalled Jinyoung's childhood. They both regretted not being able to do more for him. 

I wished that I was able to tell them that all the good times that they made for him were enough, but I could not. It was not my place to tell them. The only reason they got in touch with me and told me about his childhood was that in Korea the news of him being my husband has spread. Everyone that knows how to read knows that we got married. They called to tell me that I must treat him with respect because he has suffered too much. I felt terrible when I promised them that I will never maltreat him and that I will have the patience to deal with his cold shoulders and insecurities. 

After the talk with them, I had a call from his father. During the phone called with him, I could not take the image of a young Jinyoung crying because of how cruel they were to him. Mr. Park called because Jinyoung has stopped taking care of their company. He was stopped all activity once again, but not before submitting his letter of resignation and receiving his last paycheck, which was a great sum of money, in dollars.  Mr. Park was demanding to speak to him, even after I told him that Jinyoung was not available at the moment. I know that my parents could have already told him that Jinyoung and I were no longer living under the same roof, but still, I rather lie than tell him that Jinyoung has disappeared, not because I don't want to worry him, rather because I don't want him to look for Jinyoung. 

After the call with Mr. Park, I am more determined to find him because I cannot get rid of the feeling that Mr. Park will not think twice than to hurtJinyoung once he finds him.
