"Mom! Please, I'm begging you!" Mina said in between her sobs.

"Stop this nonsense Mina! You are not going anywhere!"

"Mommy please, just let me talk to Chaeyoung. Even for one last time"

"No, Mina" her mom said sternly. "You are not talking to that kid anymore. Can't you see what's she's doing to you?! She's ruining your life! The life that I planned for you"

"I don't want this life, Mom! You've always dictating what should I do with this damn life! You didn't even bother to ask what's my real dream is!"

"You are so going to come with your sister in the US! If that's what it takes just to get you away from that Chaeyoung!" Mina was shocked when she felt a tingling pain on her left cheek. Her mom just slapped her. Tears were falling in her eyes as she hold her now heated cheek.

"Mom! Stop already!" she heard her sister as it barged in, in her room and stopping their mom. It seemed to be in a shock too for what she have just done.

"M-mina... Baby, I'm sorry. I didn't m-mean to do it" her mom was already crying too as it tried to approach her and hold her but Mina stepped back, avoiding her.

"J-just get out of my room, mom" Mina laid down on her bed, her eyes were already blurry because of her nonstop tears.

She heard the door closed and Mina sighed with the thought of her mom leaving. But then, she felt the side of her bed dipped. When she looked she was shocked when she saw that her sister stayed, she thought that she leaved together with their mom. Jihyo looked at her and she can see how worried she is. Mina felt a slight happiness because this is the first time her sister look at her like this. She sat on the bed and leaned on the head board, still crying.

"Mina..." Jihyo held her hand and at that slight touch, Mina bursted into more tears. Her sister pulled her into a hug and slightly tapped her back. "Shhh... Stop crying, everything will be okay" mina nodded on her shoulder. Then Jihyo made her face her and wiped her tears.

"Look, I know that I have a lot of things that been lacking as your sister. Because you know, I've been so immature that time. What do we expect, right? We're still kids, young and dumb" Jihyo chuckled. "And I'm sorry for that Mina. Sorry if I've let the anger and envy consumed me that I forgot how to be a sister for you. Sorry if I'm not here during your good and bad days, sorry if I'm not here when you needed me the most. Sorry if I let you go on this battle alone" then Jihyo also start shedding tears.

"No unnie, don't be sorry. I really understand you" Mina smiled at her and held her hand too.

"Thank you for always understanding me my little sister. Thank you for not giving up on me" Jihyo ruffled her hair and it made Mina smile. "But I want to tell you that I'm here right now. For you. So, if you want or don't want to tell me what's been going on, I'll understand but just remember that I'm here"

"Unnie.. I love Chaeyoung. I really do" Mina expect any violent reaction from her sister, like what her mom did, bit there's none. All she could see was eyes and ear ready to listen and understand. "I know that for some this isn't right but tell me unnie, is loving someone wrong?"

"No Mina, and you shouldn't let anyone or anybody dictate your heart. On who you should love or not" Jihyo smiled at her. "Daniel, he's been a lot of help for me. He opened my eyes to everything and he let me realized how important you and mom are to me. He changed me, in a good way. I've found the love I think I really deserve, Mina. And I want you to feel that love too. So, if you really think that Chaeyoung is that person, go on I won't be stopping you nor judge you"

Mina can't believe that her sister is really supporting her right now. There's this little hope starting to bloom in her heart. Just wait for me, Chaeyoung. I'm coming back for you.
