"Mom mom mom I'm back" Miyeon said as she ran inside the tiny house which miyeon and her older sister Jungyeon with their mom lives.
"Have you gotten the money ?" Her mom asked while she sat apparently on the floor where jungyeon is laid.
"No mom , i haven't gotten any " Miyeon cried out and sat beside jungyeon who is literally really sick .
"What are we going to do now? We don't have any Hope " her mom said
"No mom we can't just give up like that , it's jungyeon health that we're talking about" Miyeon stated
"I-" her mom was cut off by jungyeon "don't worry , I will die anyway" jungyeon said weakly .
"No you won't die jungyeon"Miyeon said as she sob
"It's too late for me , just make sure you take good care of mom and also take care if yourself , you are now twenty which means you are an adult so don't do something you can't take responsibility for" That was the last words jungyeon said before passing away .
"Jungyeon , Jungyeon , wake up , no you can't die now , please wake up " Miyeon cried as she watches her sister take her last breathe.
"Mom mom , Look at jungyeon , she is pranking us , please tell her that it's not funny and she should get up " Miyeon cried harder as she watches her mom break down mentally.
Her mom was speechless because she had to watch her own daughter die in front of her . She couldn't take it , the pain and sorrow is too much . She felt her self feeling dizzy and getting drowsy , her eyes was blurry then she passed out .
"Mom , mom wake up , what is wrong with you , you can't leave me like how dad and jungyeon did , you can't leave me alone mom , no you just can't so wake up and let cry together " Miyeon's agony doubled when she saw her mom passed out due to the pain .
... Hospital...
"Your mom will be fine she have an heart disease so she will need to go through surgery to be fine" The door said as walked in the office with Miyeon .
"How much is the surgery? I hope the money is not much"
"The surgery is 10million and if we don't perform the surgery in two weeks , I am afraid you'll have to bid goodbye to your mom" The doctor stated.
"Okay Sir " Miyeon said and got up , she went straight to her mom's room and stare at her before pecking her forehead .
"Mom , you'll be fine once you go through surgery and everything will be back to normal" Miyeon tried to cheer herself up because she knew everything can never be back to normal .
She couldn't control her tears so she ran out of the hospital and walked through the dark street while she burst into tears as she thinks about her complicated life.
Her dad died and his family threw her and her sister with her mom out and never wants to see them again and they had to live in the cold and dangerous street for months .
Jungyeon worked 24/7 to give Miyeon and their mother a roof over their head and she neglected her own health because she need to take care of her little sister and Mom , during that process , she fell sick and ended up dying and now , Miyeon has to look for 10 million for her mom's heart disease . She knew she can't get that 10million in two weeks just by working part time or doing any job so she have to find a job that will fetch her more money in a day .
...Back at home...
Miyeon sat down on the cold floor and cried for her dad , her sister and her mom then an idea popped in her head.
She stood up and wore her sneakers and ran outside , she knew she can't find buses at that hour so she had to run for an hour to get to her aunt's house.
She rang the bell and her aunt opened the door not expecting to see Miyeon. She stood in front of the door not letting Miyeon in .
"Oh Miyeon , why are you here at this hour ?" She said obnoxiously
"Jung-jungyeon is dead and mother is in the hospital with an heart disease , she need 10 million to be okay " Miyeon cried hoping it will touch her aunt's heart but all her effort went in vain when her aunt said "So what do you want me to do about it"
"I was hoping you could help me with some amount " Miyeon uttered
"If I keep helping your family , I will soon bankrupt " She said heartlesssly
"What are you saying, you've never helped us before " Miyeon said
"Exactly , I can't help you because you and your dead sister are born with bad luck , it follows you around so If I help you, I might bankrupt"
"Do you even have an heart ?" Miyeon said as she couldn't even believe what she hearing that makes her wonder if people are really people or they are just animals because she have an animalistic behavior
"It's better not to have an heart that to have an heart disease" She mocked she my mom
"How dare you ? Is it because I begged money from you to save your own brother's wife ?" Miyeon questioned and her aunt's nodded.
"You think you have everything because of this huge house and some cars but let me enlighten you to something" Miyeon said and her aunt gave the -what the fuck is it - look .
"Sometimes , people can be the cause of their problem which means you are the cause of your problems , you couldn't hold your pregnancy because of how cold-hearted and heartless you are " Miyeon said calmy and her aunt got angry .
"Don't be mad, I am just saying the truth"
