[Sung Hyo's POV]

"I haven't seen you longer an hour these days, Sung Hyo. What are you busy at?", Mi Nyu asked me as I was up early six in the morning fixing myself.

"I'm looking for my parents, Mi Nyu." I sighed. "It's been days and I can't see them. I can't contact them so I'm just looking for them. Don't worry, I won't give up before they leave. I'll be looking for them and stop them for leaving, okay?" I said with a lively tone.

"Okay, I trust you. Go Sung Hyo! AJA!"

"Fighting!" Then she embraced me. "I'll be going now, bye! See you later!"

"Yes, don't forget I'll be leaving tomorrow for Rome!"

"I'll be home on time!" I shouted from afar.

I searched everywhere... As in every place I can think of. I even forgot to eat my lunch. It's crazy to be looking for someone you don't have any idea where they'd go. It can't be this way, I can't just lose my parents this way. I can beg for their forgiveness, right? I can do everything to make it up for them. Mom, where are you now with dad?

I travelled too much, I'm pretty tired now. It's already seven in the evening, I remembered I told Mi Nyu I'll be home in time... I couldn't be late this time. Know what scares me? It's when tomorrow comes and I can't see them anymore.

I took the way home... Maybe before they leave I can see them at home... I miss them both. It hurts so bad that I'm still hoping that they'd accept me as their daughter, as for who I am and what I am. And stop comparing me to Yeon Hee.

I rang the door bell. "Mom? Dad?" And I tapped the gate. I pressed again the door bell. No answer. I sighed, and shouted again, "Mom? Dad? It's Sung Hyo. MOM? DAD?" Still nothing. I'm almost crying. "MOM? DAD? It's me." I was really shouting... It's drizzling.

"Sung Hyo?" Jin Rin came to me with an umbrella. "What are you doing here? It's almost raining."
"I'm calling Mom and Dad. But they weren't answering my calls. I had to look for them, but I guess they're not at home." I said as she put the umbrella on me too.
"Oh, that... I'm sorry, Sung Hyo."

"Sorry for what? You haven't done any thing wrong." I was too curious.
"I was wrong... The day when you called, they already left to Busan. I'm sorry, Sung Hyo."

"That's... that's okay."

"I'm sorry, Sung Hyo. I didn't know it, they said they changed their flight earlier. I'm sorry again."

"What you did was fine, totally fine. I'm just not okay. You know what? I've been looking for them the whole week, now it turned out I was looking for no one. Crazy but I even skipped meals." I said faking a smile but tears ran down my face.

"I'm sorry."
"It's okay, Jin Rin. At least, at least I've tried." The rain poured down heavily. I'm not mad at Jin Rin, it just hurts to receive the worst news ever. So they really left... Now that hurts.

I ran in the rain... I don't even have any idea where I'm going. The rain felt so cold, my stomach's acting up... I remembered I haven't eaten anything the whole day since I woke up this morning. I was travelling looking for my parents who just left Seoul. I'm all wet now, how do you expect me to be okay?

Suddenly, the things around me started to be blurry. Could it be all because of the rain? Well, I hope so. But I can't even feel my own feet. I can't even see anything... anymore...

Driving fast on my way home, damn it was raining so hard. Know what I'm afraid of? It's being alone, and I'm alone on the road driving by myself. I just got a brand new car, so naturally, I got to drive on my own. Min Hyuk and Jung Shin's still on the car shop... They were too slow picking cars they wanted. I just need to reach home, maybe our gardener or cook or whoever's there. My heartbeat's really fast, I don't want to be alone like this. Do you know autophobia? It's fear of being alone. Too bad I have that. Good thing it's not agoraphobia.

I caught her before she even totally broke down to the ground.

"Hey... Hey." I shook her. But she did not respond. Now I'm all wet too. But that doesn't matter, she's sick, maybe. I brought her to my car, now my car's wet too. Again, it doesn't matter... I pity this girl... It feels like she's going through a lot of things.

I have to get her to the nearest hospital anyway.

How come the nearest hospital's this far? Sigh.

She seriously looks so sick right now. She moved a bit, good thing she's conscious.

"Hey... Don't move too much, I'll get you to the hospital." I told her and she slowly opened her eyes.

"Whe.. where am I?" She asked slowly moving her head looking around.

"I saw you broke down on the road while you were running, I was able to catch you as you painted." I explained.

"Who are you?" She asked me but not in a high-toned voice.

"We met last time on.. uh, the A.N.JELL's company, I guess?" She looked thinking hard.

"Yah, I remember you..." She answered coldly.

"We're getting there now, don't worry."

"Wait, stop the car."
"What?"
"I'm okay now, I don't need to go to the hospital. Please, let me go down now." She said slightly tearty-eyed.

"You sure you're okay?" She opened the door by herself and went down. She slightly slipped, good thing I was able to catch her back.

"Stop acting like you know me, okay? Just leave." She shoved away my hands.

"Can I just drive you home?" I asked.

"Stop it, let me go." She said and took a step but she tripped again.

"Look, if you don't want my help, just call your parents. Let them pick you up, they might be worrying about you now." I sat her down to the stairs near us.

"You're asking me if I'm okay, how do you want me to act, like I know you? Please just go, I can't act like I do know you. Leave me alone." She said coldly.

"Is anything's wrong?"

"My parents threw me out of the house, now you want me to go home?"

"I'm sorry, I... I didn't know."

"My parents don't answer my calls, and you're telling me to call them."

"I--I'm sorry, I didn't know it either."

"That's it. We're completely strangers, so you can't just ask me if I'm okay." She started sobbing.

I leaned on my car. "Look, you said it yourself that we're completely strangers. Could you tell me what happened because we're just strangers, right?"

She continued sobbing. I don't think she'll even tell me a word.

"My sister died years ago." She started, it's even funnier that I'm paying attention to someone like her. A Jong Hyun's talking to a stranger, wow. Good job, Jong Hyun. "She's my twin, and she died because of me. My parents were so down like they forgot I lost my sister too.

"It was because of me why she's gone now." She looked down and cry harder. I offered my handkerchief and glad she took it. "I had to get my report card, but it was raining so hard I was stuck in the bus station. She did a favor to me and took my report card disguising as me since we're identical twins. She was so happy about my grades and wanted to celebrate. She said she'll fetch me, but she never came.

"Just because of one favor, she died. Because of that, I learned I was a big mistake in this world. I tried living in her path. I gave up my dreams and lived hers. But I fail trying to be like her. I failed a subject once, and my parents compared me to her. I was so used to comparison between me and Yeon Hee, but it hurts more that time because they wished I died in place of Yeon Hee." She sobbed again. But she wiped her tears away this time and looked straight.

"I failed them again, and they threw me out of the house. I tried to call them, but they never answered my calls. I looked for them, I searched the whole Seoul for them. But I never saw them. Today, I spent the whole day looking for them, I even skipped meals, I didn't eat the whole day. Maybe that's why I fainted. I found out that they already left Seoul days ago, so I was looking for no one. I just... I just can't believe they left me alone like this... Like they forgot I'm their daughter."

She cried even more. I can't help but pity her and feel sorry for her. I can't stand a girl hurting this bad.

I sat beside her and caressed her back. I tapped her back and comforted her. She leaned on my shoulder. "Shh. Stop crying, you'll be okay..." I kind of whispered.

"I just don't get it why... why it has to be me. Now I wish I should really have died, not Yeon Hee."

"Stop saying that... Everything's gonna be alright."

I remembered my brother... He doesn't have an idea what happened to our family back in town. I had just stopped being his brother anyway... why do I need to care about him since he was the one who left me?

"Sung Hyo?" Someone came in an outift of a nun.

I loosen up my arm around her shoulder. She wiped her tears right away. "Mi Nyu? I'm glad to see you." She forced herself to smile, I can see that.

"Who is he?"

She looked at me. "Oh, I'm Jong Hyun. Lee Jong Hyun." I introduced myself.

"He... he was the once who helped me. Anyway, why are you here?"
"Everyone's worried about you in the convent. Please, let's go home now. Mother Superior wants to see you."

"Oh, okay." She said, I helped her stood up. "Thank you so much, Jong Hyun. Thank you for helping me. I appreciate it, and sorry for causing you troubles again. I'll have to go now, I'm Sung Hyo."

"It's nothing. Just make sure you'll be okay."

"I will. Thank you so much!" She said and left with the nun. She managed to smile a bit anyway, that's a relief. Suddenly, Min Hyuk and Jung Shin came with their brand new cars.

"What are you doing here?" Min Hyuk asked.
"Nothing, I just helped someone. Why are you so late?"

"Jong Hyun looks a little happy... Happier than he seems to be." Jung Shin mocked me.

"Happy? Why? Should I be happy you're so slow picking cars?"

"It was hard, you know..." Min Hyuk said looking at his yellow sports car.

"It was harder driving alone on the road, that's hard for me, okay?"

"Oh, sorry. Autophobia's attacking you?"

"Glad it didn't." Well, because I was with someone earlier, I was with Sung Hyo earlier.

We drove home with our new cars. Sung Hyo, such a pretty name.

How come I left my plane ticket to Rome with that guy? How can it be the same guy as the A.N.JELL's leader?!!!

How can I go to Rome to study? This is disappointing.

Is this his cellphone? This could be his song too. Can I listen to it? He's blessed with a very warm voice...

I remembered what Manager Ma said when I came here in the airport. Mi Nam wanted to pursue singing because he wanted to be famous. And when he's finally famous, he'll be looking for our mother. When we were young, we were teased for being beggars because we didn't have parents. Mi Nam never gave up looking for our mother. If I disguised as Mi Nam, will I be able to see our mother?

Mother Superior, what should I do now?

Watching every plane fly... is like watching my parents leave me here. I still tried to catch them by the airport, but I haven't seen any signs of them. They sure have left... maybe I should just accept that fact.

I'm worthless now, it's clear that I don't have any profession.
