Part 13 Years have passed and I'm still with Ji Won. I don't think it was possible but I grew more and more in love with Ji Won everyday. We would do a lot of stuff together and we never had any fights. We argue, but it never comes to the point where we would get really mad at each other and he usually let me have it my way. Kang Sung Hoon was Ji Won's other friend and he hangs out with us a lot too. Sung Hoon is a little older than me and is really nice. He has this really cute smile that when he smiles, you can't help but smile back. I call him 'Smiley'. His family life isn't good. His dad is a drunk and his mom passed away when he was young. So usually it was the three of us together. My home life is a lot better thanks to Ji Won. My step mom doesn't dare to touch me anymore and it's still the same between my dad and me. We don't talk much. Ji Won's parents like me a lot too. It's because when they tell Ji Won to do something and he doesn't, they come to me. I'm kind of like their pawn. Life was heaven for me until it completely shattered one day. It started out with good news but who would have known it would end up in tragedy? June 15, 1996 my step mom and dad came home one day from visiting the Euns. "Guess what?" my step mom told me excitedly. "What?" I asked calmly. "The Eun's are planning a wedding for you and Ji Won!" I sat down because my knees gave out. This news hit me with total surprise but I was so happy to hear it because I was so in love with Ji Won. "Really?" I asked excitedly. "How did this happen?" "Mr. Eun wanted Ji Won to get married and he figured you were the girl he should marry." "What did Ji Won say?" I had to ask. I didn't want him to be forced into this. "Of course he agreed," she answered. My breathing increased so I took out my respirator. After I calmed down, my step mom took me into her room and told me all about the arrangements. Meanwhile back at the Eun mansion... "Just because you're making this wedding for me and Mina doesn't mean I owe you anything!" Ji Won yelled angrily at his dad. Mr. Eun grabbed Ji Won by the collar of his shirt. " Ji Won! You listen to me. Once you and Mina get married, your grandpa will give you all his business. Sharing part of it with you dad isn't asking for much, is it?" Ji Won pushed his dad away. He began to laugh. "The only two people grandpa will give the business to is me or uncle. He won't give it to you because you'll spend it all on those whores! I bet all your money is gone now." It was true. Mr. Eun was in serious debt and he needed Ji Won to get married because Ji Won's grandpa was going to give Ji Won his inheritance once he got married. Ji Won had just turned 18 and his dad had planned the marriage months ahead. His dad got on his knees; "Please son. Please do it for me." Ji Won rolled his eyes. "You're so pathetic dad." He sighed. Living with Mina taught him compassion and sympathy for people. "I'll see what I can do, dad." He went into his room. Just then, his mobile phone rang. He picked it up, thinking it was Mina. Using his sexy voice, he whispered, "Hi, Mina" A weird, high-pitched giggle came from the other end of the line. "Ooh..." said the voice. "Hi to you too, sexy." Ji Won rolled his eyes. "Oh shut up, Sung Hoon." Using his real voice, Sung Hoon began to laugh out loud. "Gross, man! That's how you talk to Mina? Ew! It gives me the chills!" "Hey, Sung Hoon, " said Ji Won seriously. "Is everything set and ready to go?" "Yeah, man," said Sung Hoon. "Good," said Ji Won, smiling. "Meet me at the docks tonight. From there we can sail to the mainland airport and get away from Hawaii to start a new life in Korea." "Yeah," said Sung Hoon. "But did you tell Mina about it?" "No," answered Ji Won, sighing. "I'm afraid she won't leave her family. I'm planning to kidnap her and take her along. It's easier that way and no hassle." "Right," said Sung Hoon. "At least the three of us will be together." "Yeah," said Ji Won. "Meet you in an hour. Get everything ready. I got our money too." "Okay," replied Sung Hoon. "Bye." Ji Won hung up his phone. Ji Won's dad didn’t抰 know it, but his grandpa had given him $10 million in advance, along with hotel ownerships in Korea and Hawaii as his wedding gift. He planned to leave his dad $5 million and live off the rest with Mina and Sung Hoon. He smiled thinking about how he would get away from everything and just be with the one he loved the most, Mina.
Part 14 Back at home, I was so excited I couldn't sleep. I knew I was still too young to be thinking about marriage but I knew Ji Won was the only guy for me. I held my teddy bear close as thoughts of Ji Won drifted me to sleep. It was midnight now. Ji Won snuck out of his house quietly without making a noise. He carried his backpack full of money on his back. He planned to go to Mina's house to grab her and leave. Then it would be just him, Mina, and Sung Hoon leaving together. He was almost to Mina's house when he saw about 10 men surrounded her house. They all saw him approaching. Ji Won began to run as they chased him. He made it to the dock. He saw Sung Hoon on the boat. "Hurry, Ji Won! The boat is leaving!" Ji Won threw his bag onto the boat first and made a high jump. He landed safely onto the boat. His uncle's men could chase him anymore. Ji Won and Sung Hoon started jumping for joy until Ji Won realized what was missing. Mina. He had left her. Ji Won fell to his knees. "What's wrong?" asked Sung Hoon. "Mina! We left her! We have to go back!" yelled Ji Won. Sung Hoon opened his mouth in shock because he realized it too. Then he shook his head sadly. "We cant. If we go back, we'll just get killed and we'll be putting Mina's life in danger too." Ji Won moved away from Sung Hoon, knowing that the darkness would cover his face. And for the first time in his life, Ji Won cried.
Part 15 I woke up the next morning with this strange feeling inside me. I don't know why, but I found it disturbing. But when I remembered that Ji Won and I were going to get married soon and the feeling subsided. When I went downstairs, my step mom was holding the wooden stick that I hadn't seen in years. I began to panic. She whacked me with it. I fell down, surprised. "Where's Ji Won?" she screamed at me. I was so confused and surprised I dint know what she was talking about. She kept hitting me and telling me to answer her. But how could I answer when I dint even know myself? Then something unusual happened. My dad grabbed the stick away from my step mom. "Stop hitting her! Can't you see that she can't think straight through all that pain?" My step mom was shocked and she kept her mouth shut because my dad had never done that to her before. "Mina," my dad said to me, holding my hand. "Ji Won ran away from home again. He's no longer in Hawaii and the wedding is cancelled." "He left?" I asked blankly. My dad nodded his head sadly. "How could he leave me?" I asked, standing up. My step mom抯 next words hit me hard and cold like ice. "He probably left because he didn't want to marry you." I sunk to my knees and fell to the floor. I began to sob to myself. My parents left the room, leaving me alone. 'How could you leave me, Ji Won? Were all those promises of taking care of me lies?' I loved Ji Won so much. All I ever wanted was to be with him, even if he did only considered me as a little sister. I needed to know why he left. Being with him all this time, I knew where he had gone. I would search all of Korea if had to...
One year later...
During this year, my life of hell had returned. I managed to save up enough money for a ticket to Korea and money to spend. I had to work odd hours so my step mom wouldn't find out or she would take the money from me. I also had to sell some of Ji Won's gifts to me. He was a really generous big brother who would buy me a lot of expensive clothes, jewelry, perfume, and just about anything that I wanted. I figured he wouldn't .mind because they were just material possessions. They were a big help because I managed to trade them for a lot of money.
July 24, 1997
I finally had enough money to leave. It took me a while to go because I knew chances are low of finding Ji Won right away. I needed extra money for my search and I had to pay double for a fake I.D. you could say that I had almost everything planned out. I've got a pretty good amount of money so I planned on leaving today. It's been a little over a year since Ji Won left me with no reason or explanation. I've gotten so much thinner because I couldn’t抰 eat or sleep and I missed him so much. The problem I still had facing me were my parents. I know they were not going to let me leave. I was only 17. Damn. Still underage. This year had been total hell for me and I want going to stand another year of it. I had to leave and I had a plan. I was going to fake my death. It was all so perfect. My family had to go out to a dinner party with Mr. Eun. He still keeps in touch with us. I guess it's because he thinks I might know where Ji Won is. Truth is, I have no idea except that Ji Won is somewhere in Korea. I planned to fake drowning. Because of my heart failure, it helped me close off my air circulation for up to 4 minutes. This time I was using it to let my family think that I had drowned and the tides had drifted my body to sea so I would never be found. .. But before I went, I had to say goodbye to my father. I hugged him hard. He looked at me, surprised. "What was that for?" he asked. I shook my head. "It wasn't for anything dad. I did it because I love you." My dad had tears in his eyes. "I'm sorry Mina. I'm so worthless as your father." "No you're not but you have to do what's right, dad. Don't let anyone stop you and stop putting yourself down." He nodded his head. I hugged him for the last time. "I'm going for a swim okay?" he nodded his head and watched me head toward the ocean. The plan went perfect I stayed underwater for a while and swam myself to the other side of the beach where they couldn't see me. All my belongings were there. I got on the dock and sailed to the mainland airport leaving Hawaii forever. ..
