ᴍɪɴʜᴀ walked down the streets with a bag filled with stuff and stopped by an orphanage center. A smile grew on her face and walked in.

A hoard of children rushed over and gave her a hug. Minha smiled and hugged them all. "Omo it's so nice seeing you guys again," she greeted them.

"Oh? Minha," the care-taker went up to her, "it's so nice seeing you again." The care-taker, Ms.Joong greeted her with a hug and patted her back.

Minha chuckled and said, "I thought I should stay for awhile, after all, I'm done with most of my school work." Minha took off the bag that dangled on her arm and handed it to Ms.Joong.

"Ms.Joong, they're toys and gifts for the kids," she said as she looked at Ms.Joong open the bag. Ms.Joong smiled and chuckled.

"You're a good kid. How about you head on inside? The kids made something for you inside, I'll go show you but first I have to gather the kids," Ms.Joong said and walked off with a smile. Minha nodded and walked inside.

Minha looked around. It wasn't as dark as it used to be. The orphanage would have little light back then due to all the broken bulbs and there was no money to fix it. She smiled, thinking about how the kids now have a better place to live in.

Minha headed toward the kids' rooms and stopped. She turned and saw someone talking to a kid.

"Just wait a little longer," the person spoke to the child and held their hand, "Auntie and Uncle will come adopt you once they come back."

"I don't want," the child spoke poorly, "i want parent, own parent." The person sighed and ruffled their hair,

"Y-Yoojin...we've already gone over this-"

"No! I want own parent! I don't want your's!" The kid ran off angrily. The person ran out then stopped as they saw Minha.

"Were you eavesdropping?" Minha looked up and saw the person. It was Hyunjin.

"No, I just coincidentally heard it," Minha tried walking away but felt his grip on her wrist. "Let me go," she demanded coldly.

"No because now you know something you shouldn't have," he glared at her and leaned in to her ear and whispered, "if you tell anybody about this, I will destroy your life."

Minha glared and him and shook of his grip, "you act like I have someone to tell this to." She walked away and started to think. Is he just covering his self up from looking weak?

-

Hyunjin ran his hand through his hair and looked as she walked off. Great going Hyunjin, you just lost the girl you like, he thought. He ran after Yoojin, his baby cousin.

Yoojin was only 2 when her parents died due to a car crash and its been 3 years since she stayed in the orphanage. Hyunjin's parents didn't adopt her from the start because they were busy with work abroad.

Hyunjin never spent time with his parents and would feel lonely in that house. He would bring Yoojin over from time to time to take care of her and let her realize what it was to be out of the orphanage.

Although she couldn't remember her parents, the only person she loved was Hyunjin. He always took care of her and was a nice person.

Many called him rude and disgusting for playing with girls left and right, but Hyunjin found it as if he was being loved by someone. He never had love since birth, he would have to spend time with his grandparents until he turned thirteen.

After becoming a teen, he would be alone in his house and visit Yoojin. He would probably only see his own parents two times a year. Nobody knew his story because well...he was afraid everybody would look down on him.

Money came in from his parents every month and they wouldn't care what he would use it for and what he was even doing.

Hyunjin remembered using his parent's card to get alcohol, just to see their reaction, in return, they never cared or even asked him.

All he wanted was to feel loved. Atleast by someone. Until he fell in love. He fell in love with Minha. A girl who didn't like him or even realize his feelings for her.
