"Ah, Eun Mi." Mum stood up from her seat.
I couldn't react that time. But I could feel tears welled up my eyes. I didn't want to see her after what she did. I didn't want her to go back to that. Her temper.. I just couldn't take it. Now, I want to start a new life here in Seoul. And I saw her talking to dad, with papers on the coffee table? What are they thinking about? Getting back together. No way. I quickly run up the stairs and slammed my bedroom door. I threw my bag onto my study table and jumped onto my bed. I cover my face with a pillow and cry my eyes out.
"YAH, KIM EUN MI, GET DOWN HERE. WE HAVE SOMETHING TO DISCUSS ABOUT," Dad yell.
I don't want to go out there and see mum. I just cannot take it anymore. After all mum did, Dad still wants her back into our family? What the heck is he thinking about. I don't want a mum. Even if she suffers a lot. I don't want her. If she is going to get married to another guy, I'll accept it. But with dad, no way! But in the end, I did went down and sat far away from mum.
"Eun Mi, listen to what you're mum has to say. Do not say a word before she finish talking," Dad emphasized on the word "Not."
"Eun Mi, I know you are enjoying yourself here in Seoul. But, your grandma in America is ill. Appa can't follow due to his busy schedule. I was thinking of asking you. Do you want to go?" Mum asked.
I could only stare at Umma and Appa. I don't want to go back to America. Even if my grandma is ill. I just don't want to. I want to stay here in Seoul. America is a big NO.
"ANIO! I don't want to. I have a perfect life here in Seoul. I DON'T WANT TO GO BACK TO BUSAN NOR AMERICA. I HATE THEM. " I shouted as I stood up.
"What did I say, Eun Mi?!" Dad scolded me.
"YOU SAID NOT TO SAY A WORD BEFORE UMMA FINISH TALKING, NOW SHE HAS, I CAN TALK!" I shouted back.
Without hesitation, dad stood up and gave me a tight slap. I gave him and mum a glare and run up to my room with tears flowing down my cheeks. I don't want to separate with my friends. Not to mention Wooyoung. 2 days before prom, why wouldn't it be perfect, why must mum come now? Why not later? I slammed the door hard enough to break the walls. I couldn't help my drop to the ground and cry. That was the first time dad slapped me. I feel so useless, now.
