-4 weeks later-

After what happened to Bel and Min-jun's place, Do-Yun found an excellent place for them to live peacefully without any conflicts. Not knowing that they have a new neighbor,  that is very familiar... They ignored who it was, so they continued their daily lives...On the other hand, Ace finally left the marriage that he never wanted in the first place, he persuaded his parents to agree to the divorce, which they did, but with an explanation of why he wanted to leave her when Ace told them everything on the phone since his parents are living in Japan.  Before he moved out of his old home, Jae-Hwa begged him to stay with her, and she refused to sign the papers, but he wasn't having it. He told her to sign it, and eventually, she gave up and signed it.  Ace left that house which he never called home.  He found a nice place in a nice area. He finally could live his life the way he wanted rather than being married by force...

-Bel's POV-

-4 Weeks before-

After what happened to my so-called mother, I calmed myself down and looked at the boys, I saw them smirking at me which might have me confused..

Bel: Why are you all smirking like that -confused-

Ha-Joon and Min-Jun look at each other and look back at me 

Min-Jun: Are you okay dear~ Hahaa ooooo he called you dear !!

I looked away and then smacked Min-Jun in the head...  While Ha-Joon was laughing at him, I also laughed at him as well...

Ha-Joon: OK OK, enough, let's go to the skating park.

Bel: Go without me, I have to go somewhere today and go to work.

Min-Jun: Come on... we go to work together... where are you going anyways?

Bel: Somewhere, anyways see you

I left there and went to find Ms. Kwon's Place, excited to visit her.,  I didn't know what I would expect from her, but I felt positive vibes from her. As I was walking to the bus stop, I saw Mr. Takahashi, heading to his car, I kept staring at him, having these weird tingles in my stomach, just by looking at him. It made me curious about this guy, I don't know why, there's something about this guy that makes me feel an odd emotion or feeling about him.  Once he was about to get in his car he looked at me, and I quickly looked away As soon as I did, the bus arrived and went inside.

-30 Minutes later-

Once I arrived at Ms. Kwon's Place, I knocked on her front door and waited... a couple of seconds later, she opened the door, smiled at me, and hugged me. I was shocked at first but I quickly hugged her back. I felt warmth, something I would never feel from my mother before. We let go of the hug and we went inside her house.  I looked around her house and it was a calm and comfortable place. She led me to the dining room and pulled a chair for me.

Ms. Kwon: Would you like anything to drink or eat?

Bel: Umm water will be fine, thank you -smiles-

Ms. Kwon went to the kitchen to get a glass of water and I just admired her dining room, and then I saw a Picture of a Young Man in a police suit and a beautiful young woman... I think those are her kids or I think they are...

Ms. Kwon: -chuckles-  We were young in that photo when he asked me to marry him...

She gives me a cup of water that I kindly ask for and she puts some tasty food as well... I didn't ask for it, but it smells good though...

Ms. Kwon: I know you're going to work after this,  I made some pasta and I want you to try it if it's good...

Bel: Oh... umm yes, thank you.. and that's you and your husband!! I thought those were your kids...- I took a bite of the pasta-

Bel: MMMM!! Its sooooo gooodddddd!! Thank you Ms. Kwon!!

Ms. Kwon:  Thank you!! Sweetie... Yes, he is my Husband... Children... I never have any- sits down-

I look at her... I see sad eyes looking at her husband... What happened to him?

Bel: May I ask what happened... to him...

She looks and takes a big breath...

Ms. Kwon: He... died of a gunshot during a mission to get a dangerous suspect... he was sent to the hospital, but he didn't make it.  Children... I wasn't able to have any... due to my medical health... 

Bel: I'm sorry to hear... I know he's happy that you made it through Mom- sorry Ms. Kwon...

Ms. Kwon:  -giggles- I heard that... it feels nice... you calling that...

Bel: Really!... I know Unnie told you about... my past...

Ms. Kwon: Yes Bel... I do know... believe me... you called me mom whenever you like -smiles-

I look at her with my semi-tears... and I hug her, and she hugs me back... I felt the warmth of a mother's hug, which I never had... soon I ended up crying.... she patted my back and said comforting words...  I love this motherly feeling...  When I realize this...  I was home...

-3 hours later-

I arrive at the Cafe where I work... I clocked in and I quickly started my work. I saw Min-Jun taking orders from the customers... After that, I keep doing what I'm doing...

- Midnight-

I closed the shop and headed to Min-Jun to a car, we left and went home... Once we arrived, we headed to our place, we kept walking and chatting... until our place was locked up and there was a sign " Evicted".  I called the landlord and told him what happened, and his response was someone told him that I hadn't paid my rent for 3 months...  I looked confused and looked at Min-Jun, once I figured out who it was, and hung up, and called my brother pissed off... 

*OTP*

Do-Yun:  Hello... precious you know you can't  call while I'm-

Bel: She took our home...!!! 

Do-Yun: What?

Bel: SHE TOOK OUR HOME FROM US!! SHE TOLD THE DAMN LANDLORD THAT WE DIDN'T PAY THE RENT FOR 3 FUCKING MONTHS!! SHE LIED TO THEM AND WE ARE EVICTED!!

Do-Yun: Precious try to stay calm let me handle this -hangs up

*End of OTP*

I kick the door with my anger... I swear this bitch, keeps messing with me...

Min-Jun: Bel... calm down... your brother will solve it... let's just get stuff...

Bel: Yeah... let's do that... after you hand the damn keys to the dumb landlord... because if I did I'll beat the shit out of him...

-Hour Later-

We waited inside Min-Jun's car,  I still didn't a call from my brother...  -sigh-.. When will there ever be a peaceful life without any distractions... Papa, why did you leave so early..... I felt my head spinning, I try to touch for Min-Jun hand, but I black out... shit... it's happening again..... I felt Min-Jun shaking me... I open my eyes, I look at him... my eyes are watery... I ended up crying like a little girl who lost her toy... Min-Jun quickly calls my brother.

*OTP*

Min-Jun: Yun Yun wants to talk to you, sweetie.

Bel: Yun Yun!! meanie took our... our houseu -cries- where we sleep 

Do-Yun: Don't worry precious, I'm coming, you and Jun wait there... while I arrive... I found us a place where we live peacefully, ok precious...

Bel: Yun Yun prowmise.

Do-Yun: Yes precious... be a good kid, and pass me to Junie...

Bel: Junie... Yun Yun...-pass the phone-

Min-Jun: Hey... yeah... ok... see you in 20 minutes -hang up

*End of OTP*

-Present Day (4 weeks later)-

I woke up around 10:40 in the morning and took a long shower... After that, I did my morning routine and went downstairs to get something to eat.  I saw my brother talking to Min-Jun about something... as I went closer to them they stopped talking and looked at me worried...

Bel: Why are you guys looking at me like that? 

Do-Yun: -sigh- Bel... precious... don't panic Okay.

Bel: Huh? for what?

Do-Yun: I'm... I'm going to London for a business trip for a month in a half.. due to a partnership with the Robinsons.

I look at him... I was getting anxious and I felt my fingers twitching....

Bel: W-When will y-you l-leave...

He sighed and played with the jacket that he had on.

Do-Yun: Today at noon -looking at the floor-

That hit me hard... I started to breathe heavily, no, no please don't switch.... don't switch, please...

Bel: Let me come with you then... 

Do-Yun: No you can't... you can't miss classes, you must stay here...with Min-Jun

Bel: N-No I-I want to g-go

He shakes his head as a no... one little action he does, made me switch...  I blacked out and was about to fall but my brother quickly caught me... he lay me on the couch.. He told Min-Jun to keep an eye on me, but that's where I completely lost it.

Bel:  Yun Yun... I want to go go pwease!! -sobs-

Do-Yun: I'm sorry my precious baby, I can't take you, be a good girl and Yun Yun will bring something good hm? I need to go now... or I'll miss my flight...

Bel: No, No, No!!!! I want to go now!!! -cries-

Do-Yun: Jun.... grab her don't let her go outside.

Min-Jun: Yeah.

When my brother went to the front door and opened it to step outside, I quickly tried to go outside but Min-Jun kept holding me until I kicked his leg and rushed outside...

I saw his driver waiting for him, and he put his luggage in the truck and was about to get in I quickly jumped and him and hugged him like a baby koala not wanting to let go..

Do-Yun: Bel please I need to go... 

Bel: NO!!! ME WANT TO GO GO!! -Cries harder- 

Do-Yun: My precious-

Bel: Yun Yun... bad bad -sobs- 

Mr. Choi: Mr. Min... we must go now...

I saw he nodded at him, and he gently put me down... I got mad and stomped my foot on the concrete like a little girl

Bel: I hate you Yun Yun!! 

I ran away from there I could hear him yelling my name but I just kept running.  Not knowing someone was watching the whole scene... I hate it I have this Little Space Syndrome... Whenever my brother leaves or conflicts with my mother, I switch... which I hate doing.. but ever since I was little I was always been attracted to my brother, when I was little I always went on business trips with him, but as I grew older he couldn't take me... When I was 15, Do-Yun took me to a therapist and stated everything about what happened to me and I was diagnosed with Little Space Syndrome... Only Ha-Joon and Min-Jun know about this... Sometimes I wonder if this could ever stop.... 

Will this ever stop... I want to

-End Bel's POV-

Min-Jun went outside and saw Bel running away... Do-Yun was about to follow her but he told Do-Yun to leave or he would miss his flight... He hesitated at first but he only nodded, he left... While Min-Jun went inside to grab his car keys and went to find Bel... Worrying about her little girl self could end up in danger.

Meanwhile Ace was finishing unpacking his last things, once he was done, he went outside to throw the trash and heard some voices, one of them was familiar... He went to see what was happening... Saw Bel hugging someone and yelling and crying... He put her down... she stomped her foot on the concrete, and yelled at him again for the last time,  running away. The guy kept saying her name, wanting to run after her,  That's where Min-Jun said he was looking for her... They parted away. I headed towards the front porch but something inside me wanted to help her, so I went after her, trying to find them. 

-Ace's POV-

I looked everywhere for her until I went to the park, and finally found her swinging at the swings talking with a little boy while pushing her.  I giggled at her cuteness and went towards to hear conversations. 

Boy: That's why you ran away from your oppa... -went in front of her-

Bel: Mhm... Yun Yun is a bad bad oppa- cutely pouts-

Boy: Aish... he's not going to leave you, that his job noona...

Bel: Yeah I know but that's I hate it...

Ace: That's where you were little girl...

Bel: Yah I'm not a little girl I'm foive!!

Ace: -chuckles- Come on your friend is worrying about you dear...

Boy: Well Noona I going to go, my mom must be waiting for me...

Bel: Okie Bye Bye!!! Seo-Jun!!! 

The Boy waved at her and went to his mother ready to go home.. I look at Bel, why is she acting like that, I mean in class she's quiet or late, hanging out with her friends... but why is she acting like a five-year-old? I'm really curious but I shrugged it off...

Ace: Come on Bel... Let's go home...

Bel: Nu... I want Ice cream -pouts-

Ace: Well let's go get Ice cream and go home... sounds like a good plan right little girl. -smiles-

She looked at me and agreed with me, As I promised we went to the ice cream shop and got ice cream and we walked home... 

-30 minutes later- 

Bel: I'm tired... -yawns cutely-

Ace: Hm.. We are almost there sweetheart..

Bel: Nuuu I'm tired uncle!!! 

I squatted down and told her to get on my back and she did... I carefully lift her and continue walking... As we got closer I stopped and carefully looked at her and she was sleeping cutely... I giggle at her actions... Something in me wants to know more about her, which makes me so curious about her...  I continued walking, Once we arrived I saw Min-Jun sitting on the front porch with a worried expression, but when looked in my direction, he quickly got up and went towards me.

Min- Jun: Oh god thank you, sir!! I thought I lost her...

Ace: No problem...

Min-Jun: I can take her from here...

He quickly and gently grabbed her and carried her back inside the house, I smiled and went back to my place and finished the rest of my day...  

Something about her makes me want to get closer, it makes me desire more for her. That makes my curiosity even more curious about her... And I hope she does as well
