Part 15
I woke up the next morning with this strange feeling inside me.
I don’t know why but I find it disturbing. Then when I remember
that Ji Won and I are going to get married soon, the feeling subsided.
When I went downstairs, my stepmom was holding that wooden stick
I haven’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 didn’t know what she was
talking about. She kept hitting me and demanded that I answer
her. But how can I answer when I don’t even know myself?
Then something unusual happened. My dad grabbed the stick away
from my stepmom.
“Stop hitting her! Can’t you tell that she can’t
think straight with all that pain?” My stepmom was shocked
and she kept her mouth shut because my dad has 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’s canceled.”
“He left?” I asked blankly. My dad nodded his head
sadly.
“How can he leave me?” I asked standing up. My stepmom’s
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. My parents left the room, leaving me alone.
‘How can 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 is to be with him, even if he did only consider me as a
dongsang. I needed to know why he left. Being with him all this
time, I knew where he went. I’ll search all of Korea if
I had to…

One year later…
During this year, my life of hell returned. I managed
to save enough money for a ticket to Korea with money
to spare. I had to work odd hours so my stepmom wouldn’t
find out or she’ll take the money from me. I
also had to sell some of Ji Won’s gifts to me.
He was a really generous oppa 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’re 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 of finding Ji Won right away are low. I
needed extra money while searching and I had to pay extra for
a fake I.D. You could say that I had almost everything planned
out. I got a pretty good amount with me and 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 eat or sleep and I miss him so much.
The problem facing me right now were my parents. I know they are
not going to let me leave.
I was only 17. Damn. Still a minor. This year had
been total hell for me and I can’t 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 luau 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 I know that Ji Won’s somewhere
in Korea. I planned to fake a drowning. Due to my
heart problems, I can hold my breath for up to 4 minutes
and yet stay alive. This time I am using it to let
my family think that I have drowned and that the tides
have taken my body to the sea so I will never be found…
But before I go, 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 so 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 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…

Part 16
[Seoul, Korea]
July 26, 1997
Ji Won traced the ‘M’ scar on his back.
‘Damn,’ he thought.
‘I miss Mina so much.’ He sent out one
of his men to retrieve news about her and if they
could, get her here to him in Korea.
Ji Won had it all. Money and power. The only thing
that was missing was Mina. So much had happened to
Ji Won as he recalled what happened. Ji Won and Sung
Hoon made it to Seoul, Korea. With Ji Won’s
leadership skills and Sung Hoon’s smooth talking,
they end up getting a lot of businesses and putting
others out of business. Money was not enough for Ji
Won. He needed power so he created Sechskies, where
he was the leader and Sung Hoon was his 2nd-in command.
He and Sung Hoon managed to eliminate the group Quiksilver
on their own and gained the respect and loyalty of
the two members Kim Jae Duc and Lee Jae Jin. Along
the way, they found Ko Ji Yong and Jang Su Won wandering
in the streets. Ji Yong proved to be a genius and
Su Won was handy in finding information. Ji Won knew
they were enough. Ji Won had hundreds of men under
him n Sechskies but they were the main leaders with
Ji Won as the head. They committed a lot of crimes
but no evidence was ever found to convict them. Just
then there was a knock on his door, interrupting his
thoughts.
“Come in,” said Ji Won. Jang Su Won came in.
“I have news for you, boss,” he said.
“Well what is it? What did you find out about Mina?”
Ji Won asked. Sun Won looked down and was hesitatant in his reply.
“I’m afraid it’s bad news.” Those words
made Ji Won panic.
“Jang Su Won, answer me now!” yelled Ji Won with rage.
Ji Won’s yell scared Su Won so he blurted it out.
“Mina Nam is dead. She drowned while she was swimming in
the ocean. Her body has not been found and is still missing.”
Ji Won fell back in his seat in shock.
‘Mina’s dead? No, anyone but Mina,’ he thought.
Su Won knew it was a good time to leave so he left Ji Won in his
office.
“Mina!” Ji Won screamed out of his window in pain.
His cries echoed throughout the city of Seoul.
