Y/N

"So you were a businesswoman before this?" the lady at the interview desk asked me, and that's when my left hand went to the back of my ear to scratch it a little out of nervousness.

"Y...es,"

The other staff sitting at the desk giggled as if I joked and then looked at each other in dismay.

"So you are telling me that you had a company, you were the president, you left it and now you are here to give an interview for a teaching job?" the lady, most probably the principal, asked.

"Actually, yes, I guess!" my tone was of course making it obvious that their questions were making me quite uncomfortable.

"Oh my god! What made you leave such a prestigious position and look for such a job?"

"It's my personal matter and I don't think that I've to give you any explanation. Can you please ask questions related to teaching?"

My answer made their mouths shut. Maybe they understood that I was triggered by their questions. After all, they were so curious to know about my personal life that they forgot to ask questions related to teaching.

"Tell us, why you want to be a teacher?"

"Because I love kids. They make me happy. And I'm too much responsible to just sit at home so why not choose a profession that needs loyalty at work?"

"Didn't you were loyal to your work back in your company?"

"I was. But I wasn't rewarded or appreciated for it!"

***************

I knocked on the door of our beloved apartment. Every time I saw the nameplate, out of the world happiness struck me.

'Y/N and Jinnie's sweet home'

Jin was on-off that day. He was lucky cause his company gave him a paid leave for every Saturday. So on weekends, he used to cook tasty food for me.

I knocked on the door and waited outside impatiently. I was eager to give him the news.

I was about to knock again when he finally opened it.

"You are back?" he smiled. His smile still gave me millions of butterflies in my stomach. Although it had been one month since we were living there, still it felt like I ran with him yesterday.

I hugged him tightly and heard the door being closed. He caressed my hair and softly placed a kiss on my head, "How was the interview?"

I lifted my face and gave him the widest smile I could ever have, "They asked me to join from tomorrow!"

"Woohoo!" he lifted me and spun me like I was some bag of feathers.

"I'm so happy Y/Naah! Your dreams finally came true!"

"Yes, Jinnie! I'm so happy today! Both of us finally reached our destination! I love you Jin, a lot!"

"I love you too babe!"

He slowly landed me on the floor. I was too much excited because finally, I was going to pursue what I want. There was nothing that could stop me. I, my dreams and my Jinnie were together, finally.

I quickly grabbed my clothes from the closet and went to the shower. After I came back, I saw him sitting on the bed with folding his arms.

"What?" I asked him. He slowly get up and came to me. He wrapped me in a warm hug.

"Now that everything is going as planned, shall we take the next step?" he whispered in my ear. I was confused. What next step?

I looked at him blankly and he understood that I was a big fool.

He smacked lightly on my head and laughed, "Let's get married, baby!"

Stunned. I was stunned. I never expected that so suddenly. I did know that we will marry each other but didn't know that it was going to happen so soon and he would propose to me all of a sudden.

He smiled. My heart stopped. Things around became dark. I was going to be called Kim from Park. He waited for my answer with his big eyes. We were both lost in the moment. Of course, I was going to answer a 'Yes', but I wanted to admire him first. I loved him so much.

After struggling for a minute or two, I finally spoke, "Jinnie, I-"

But suddenly the doorbell ranged. Usually, at that time, no one visited us. But who came so suddenly? We both looked at each other in confusion. Jin signalled me that he'll check and went to open the door.

I was anxious. There was an unpleasant feeling inside me. I wanted to stop Jin from opening the door but sadly, it was too late. With a large scream from Jin, I rushed to the entrance.

And that's when I saw my biggest fear.

Appa.

Two men, which used to be the special bodyguards of Taehyung, were holding Jin tightly, and his screams were making me dizzier and dizzier.

"Finally, finally I found you! After one month, I found you!" Appa approached me as I stepped back out of fear.

"Don't you dare to touch her!" Jin screamed, and one of the bodyguards punched him on the face, resulting in his mouth to bleed

"Jin!" I shouted as tears of fear started faling from my eyes.

Appa came closer and held my wrist. I tried to free myself but all my tries went in vain. His grip was tight as hell.

"Let's go back! Let's go and have a good lesson, my beautiful daughter!" Appa smirked. My eyes filled with horror as the next moment I imagined myself again in that hell from where I ran away.

"No!" I yelled, finally taking my hand back from him.

He slapped me hard, so hard that my mouth started to bleed, and noises coming to my ears became hard to listen to. The noise of Jin's screams.

"You are going with me! If not then I'll kill this bastard!"

That's what I was afraid of. That he would harm Jin. No, I could never let him do that. I was frightened. I was scared.

"Kill me then! But let her live her life freely!" Jin demanded, and I could see his love for me in his anxious yet rebellious eyes, "I'm ready to give up my life for her!"

Jin was out of his head. If he died, for whom I would have lived for? Even if Appa killed Jin, I was still going to die. If not in the hands of Appa, I would have died with grief!

"NO JIN! I'll die without you!" I screamed at him. I made it clear to him from the first day that if he lives, I will live. If he dies, I'll die too. No matter how much I cried, Jin refused to listen to me.

"Just end this bullshit today! Just kill me and let her live peacefully!" Jin's words came out from his mouth like he wasn't afraid at all. I couldn't believe it was the same man who got scared because of cockroaches.

Appa clenched his jaws, the pure anger could be seen in his eyes, and the hatred towards Jin could be felt by what he did next. He kicked Jin.
Jin fell on the floor, and blood came out from his mouth. The two bodyguards kicked him mercilessly.

It wasn't like Jin couldn't fight back. He could, but he didn't. Why? Because he respected my father. He had promised me that he would respect me and my so-called family. Now, I was regretting that promise.

I was so scared that I ran to save him, but one of them kicked me on my stomach and I fell on Appa's feet. I could hear Appa giggle. His evil giggle, the giggle which ruined my life. I was feeling so helpless.

Jin's patience ended the moment he saw me getting kicked. He ignored his pains and immediately stood up. The next moment I saw a different Jin. He punched the guy who kicked me and screamed, "How dare you touch her? How dare you kick her? I'll kill you now!"

Appa's giggle soon changed into a frown, and the revolver he had in his pocket came out. "Aish...you are really getting on my nerves bastard. Let's end you today!" he pointed the revolver towards Jin. My anxiety reached its peak. No, I was not ready to see Jin getting killed in the hands of my demonic father.

I was scared to death and fell on my knees, begging him, "Please Appa! Kill me instead but not him!"

Appa kicked me hard on my face and I fell again. I suddenly remembered the day he took me away from Jin for the first time. Now he was taking Jin away from me permanently. I looked at Jin and he did the same. His eyes were filled with tears.

"Don't worry Y/N! I love you!" although his voice cracked, he still managed to say those three magical words for the last time.

"Hyung?"

Appa looked at the entrance door and lowered the gun.

A/N

Hey guys! I'm back after so long haha. So how are you all?

Lol I wrote this chapter in a hurry, so please pardon me for the mistakes. Anyways, it's getting intense, isn't it?

I've got a question for you all, do you think Y/N's father should be forgiven? Do you think he deserves that?
