Mina had been enjoying her day; the distraction president Lee had given her successfully took her mind off the issue of her parents, so when she called them, she did so with less anxiety.

Mina had never known her cousin to be violent, so if he had punched the walls, it was likely that he was purposefully trying to cause damage that would force her to pay attention to him.
