So now here I am in my old room...
I didn't talk to any of them when were at the car or when we arrived.

I was more than relieved to see my room untouched cause if it wasn't, hell would break lose.

A heart wrenching feeling erupted in me as I walk around, taking in everything... It's been so long. It was almost unfamiliar. I didn't go to my room when Minjee 'kidnapped' me. I just stayed in the living room. I didn't want to see what they had done.

I looked at the pictures on the walls and couldn't help but crack a smile. Pictures of me and my family were everywhere. I remember when I would always have my polaroid camera and would take stolen shots my parents. They would scold me but I would only laugh because of the picture. They would shake their head at me and we would all take a pic. Though this was all wonderful memories, the heart wrenching feeling I have was almost too painful. Without realizing it, a tear fell to my cheeks, then another, then another... until I was full on crying.

The past year had been a distraction... everything distracted me and only now have I felt such anger towards myself for not even thinking about my parents.. Though it delayed the pain that I was going to feel.. It only felt worse.

I stood there for god knows how long before a knock woke me up.

"Young miss, dinner is ready" our maid, Suyeong, said. She has been with us since I was 6 years old and without my parents I thought she would've left already.

"Suyeong-ssi, it's nice to see your still here" I smiled gently, wiping away my tears.

"Mr. Lee suggested that I should stay just incase you came back" She said

"Oh, I'm glad you did" I replied "I'll be down in a moment"

She nodded and bowed before leaving me. Good thing I have my own bathroom cause I don't want to run into them with my puffy eyes. I went into the bathroom and washed my face. After I was done, my phone started to ring. Without looking at who it was, I answered.

"Yoboseyo?"

"Mei, where the hell are you?!" I wasn't surprise to hear Chen's furious voice. I sighed and sat on the edge of my bed.

"I'm at my house" I replied in monotone

"Can you tell me exactly why you're there?" he asked and I knew he was growing impatient.

"For your safety" I said quietly

"For goodness sake Mei, we're fine without you having to leave! We can take care ourselves!" he growled

"Oh really?! but as I recall YOU were UNCONSCIOUS when I got home!" I said getting irritated "look Jongdae, we both know that what I did was for the best... we just both don't want to admit it. I almost regretted making this decision but it was for you guys"

"We could've helped you go through this" He insisted

"And risk your lives?" I chuckled darkly "never"

He was quite for a couple minutes

"Jongdae, I don't want to have this silly argument with you" I said frowning "I know you're worried and as much as I want to leave this place... I can't... It's for the best"

The other line was still silent and I started getting nervous after a while since I still didn't get any response.

"Dae? You still there?"

"Yeah.. sorry" he said, more like sighed then said, "I'll trust you with this.."

"Really?!" I breathe out a sigh of relief
