When we got to the house , my dad unlocked the door "Junhee ,we are back " he said. "Finally you are so late! Did you you bring the vegetables I asked for? And you ! Where have you been all this time? Couldn't you call me at least? I was worried . "my mom said in a fake concerned voice "I'm sorry " I said and headed to my room . After 20 minutes I felt hungry so I decided to go to the kitchen to grab a bite ,but I stopped on my way as I overheard my parents talking. "Don't you think it's finally time for her to get married ? And if not that she is getting so rude by the day , when you are not around she is so disrespectful towards me and Mina " I heard my mom say and my mouth fall open , I never once disrespected her I was always thankful to her for taking care of me  "What are you talking about Junhee ? Cheryl is not like that and I'm sure she is not ready to get married yet " my dad told her "Yeah but Jaejin you know that because of that orphan girl your biological daughter's marriage is getting destroyed !" my mom said annoyed , I couldn't bare listening to this conversation anymore so I went to my room and locked myself in . I cried all night , my tears filled my pillow and all kind of thoughts run through my mind .

Morning came quicker than expected . I looked myself in the mirror and my eyes were still red and puffy from crying all night , so I decided to wear some concealer to hide those since I had to go to uni and later to the library . I quickly got  ready and left my home before my parents woke up . Anyway it was better for me to pretend like nothing happen .

I climb down the stairs since the elevator was still broken , when I saw the old lady from the 9th floor carrying some shopping bags "Good morning Mrs Kyung Mi , let me help you with the bags" I told her getting some shopping bags out of her hand " Thank you sweetie, you see I'm old now and it's quite difficult for me to carry heavy stuff and on top of that the elevator is not working " she told me , and I assured her that I was there to help her . We were currently on the 4th floor when sudden realization hit me "Mrs Kyung Mi what time is it ?" I asked worriedly "It's 9:15 " a manly voice said and I turned around coming face to face with the shirtless guy from the other day "Oh shoe, I'm late ,they are going to kill me " I panicked "I'm sorry sweetie I kept you for a long time, I'll try to take them up by myself from here " the old lady said . "No I can't let you carry this alone , I'll take you till your apartment " I told her but before I could move , I felt the weight lifting from my hands "You should go , I will help her " the shirtless guy told me smiling , I looked at him and nodded my head "Thank you very much " I said smiling lightly and left biting them goodbyes .
