Shashin was right, and this place had gotten quieter since that incident. Perhaps I was too slow to realize that it was not only Hana that was missing but also many other female friends. So far, I still could not understand my father's way of thinking when he did such awful things. I could say he was such a selfish man and a human, too. Wasn't it so normal for a human to possess such greed for a position, as he was the only child of my grandmother?
Yes, officially, my father had not yet separated from my mother. Yet, he married another woman and almost killed me. I kept wondering what kind of parents I had so far. This might also be the underlying reason why I was reluctant to build up such a relationship. I was thinking of dedicating my life to Azalea, like Shashin. That way, I didn't have to get married for the rest of my life, and I would stay here for good.
