Only Yours

01

The main door was opened by someone. A girl entered inside and looked around in the dark living room. All the lights were off so no one could notice her. She tiptoed toward the stairs to go upstairs to her room.

She was about to step on the stair when the lights were turned on by someone. The cut on the girl's lower lip, her swollen cheeks, the bruises on her body, the mess she was looking, none of them was shocking for the people who were looking at the girl from her head to toe.

"Again?" The man asked crossing his arms.

"Dad, the price was higher today."

"Do you have any money problem? Don't you get your pocket money?"

"No mom, you know why I do this. I can't live leaving my passion..."

"Passion of beating people?" Her father raised his voice. She sighed looking at her parents.

"Chou TzuYu, go to your room, right now." Her father said pointing the stairs. She nodded and went upstairs after bowing to them.

TzuYu went in her room. She first took a quick shower then treated her own wounds. She wore her comfortable sleepwear and slammed herself on the bed but winced as her arm was hurting badly.

"That motherfucker twisted it badly." She mumbled holding her arm.

"Open the door." Someone said knocking on the door.

TzuYu got off of the bed still holding her arm. She opened the door lazily but frowned finding her brother standing there with a tray in his hands. She opened the door wide and he entered inside. TzuYu closed the door and went toward him who put the tray on the study table.

"What is it, Hyung?"

"First, stop calling me Hyung. You're a girl. Second, we're not Koreans."

"If I were a girl, they wouldn't have thrown me in the trash." She said scoffing and opened the lid of the dish to see what it was.

"Brown breads with cheese?" She looked at him in surprise. He nodded smiling.

"Happy birthday, TzuYu-ah." He said caressing her hair.

"Thank you, Jun Hyung." She said smiling lowly.

"Mom said to make a cake but I denied. I know you don't like cake." He said signalling her to taste it.

"But mom likes cake." TzuYu said and took a bite in the cheese coated bread.

"Wait...that's why they were up till yet?" She asked in confusion.

"Yeah, we were waiting to wish you a very happy birthday." Mrs Chou said coming inside.

"But you were busy with your passion, boxing." Her father said boringly.

"Dad, leave it right now. Let's wish her." Jun said waving his hand.

"I'm tired of you guys, you know. Why do you always celebrate this day?"

"Because this is the day when we found you." Her father said raising his brows.

"And that was the best day." Her mother said caressing her cheeks.

"Someone got a very bad day." TzuYu said chuckling with her brother.

"They were shitty people who threw you in the trash. Don't care about them." Jun said hugging her from the back. TzuYu moved a bit not wanting to mess her clothes with the cheese.

"Tomorrow morning, camping." Their father said making Jun and TzuYu look at each other.

"I have an important meeting." Jun said.
