"What?" Min Jun asked me, I ignored him and peeped through the racks of clothing, Min Jun copied me and stuck his head into the rack of clothing. I pulled him back and gave him a look of disapproval. "What?" He asked me. "Do you want to get caught?" I asked him. "By who?" He asked confused. "By my mom, she's in the store catch on," I said to him. "How was I supposed to know?" He asked me but I still ignored him and watched out for Mom. "We need to get out here," I said and pulled him hiding and navigating my way through the racks of clothing trying to avoid Mom. "Aren't we going to pay for the dress?" Min Jun whispered. "This would have put us in the spotlight," I said and tried to return the dress. "No don't do that, the dress was made for you," He said and it only took me a moment to decide my answer. Risking the chance of being caught, we got to the counter and paid the bills for the dress. "Hey, we didn't get you anything," I said. "Should we go to another fashion store?" I asked

I pulled my door open and fell flat on my face. "Ow!" I whined and looked at my slippers, the sole had gotten worse and I didn't notice, at least I didn't fall on the stairs while going to my room. The pain would have been much worse. I removed the slippers and stood up. I had been so caught up in making sure that the chance to live my life the way I wanted was perfect that I didn't notice that a lot of other things needed my attention. Mom was usually asking me questions about this thing but she had become a little distant. I guess telling me what to do was what really brought us close to one another. "Min," I said immediately after he picked up the call. "Excepting someone else?" he asked me. What did he mean expecting someone, he owned the number didn't he? "No," I said. "So?" He asked. "I like your name," I said to him. "That is clearly a lie but let's go with that," He said. "I am not lying to you," I corrected. He had no right to assume anything about me. "Yeah I know, let's m

I sat on a reclining chair and watched the nurse fix the iv lines. "Does it hurt?" My driver asked. "Not really," I said and watched how slowly the fluids flowed through the iv lines. "You made a face," He commented. "The needle piercing into my skin hurts, but that's all the pain," I assured him. "So we wait till the fluids are emptied into your veins?" He asked and I nodded. "With that speed?" he asked. "It takes forever but this is the price I have to pay for my health," I said to him. "I hope you get better miss," he said. "Like you said I am like your daughter, don't you think calling me Mei Xing sounds better," I said. "I can't miss," he said and I didn't force it. "Are you going to wait for me in here or you're going to go home? I will call you as soon as I am through," I said. "I am not needed in the Lin's mansion so I will wait with you. But if you want me to leave then I can be dismissed," he said. "I do like the company, so you can stay. I hope I don't bore you with the

Min Jun suddenly appeared behind me and he looked out of place, I should have gotten him to wear a suit, not appear here looking like he got his clothes from the train station lost and found. He got settled in and I introduced him to my parents pretending to not see the way he was dressed. I could see how unimpressed my parents were but it didn't matter much, he was here now, and they finally believed I had someone to who I was going to get married. It felt like that was all that mattered until Dad decided to start bargaining on a price for Min Jun to leave me. "Apa," I whined when he offered Min Jun half a million to leave me alone. "Half a million," Dad clarified. Why was he willing to pay a complete stranger half a million? Was he angry that I was growing up? "I will," Min Jun's voice snapped me out of my thought and I turned to look at him. I wouldn't blame anyone for choosing half a million over a hundred thousand. "I will not be leaving the woman I love just because of money,

Everyone was gathered in the living room, Dad, Mom, the maids, and my driver. "What are you doing here?" I asked him. I let him go home early so why was he here again? "Your dad called when no one could find you," He said. "I'm fine, you can go home now. I will handle this," I said to him. He looked at my dad, my dad nodded and he walked out. After my driver left, my mom dismissed the maid and I was stuck with my parents. "Where were you?" Dad asked me. "I was at the restaurant and now I am here," I said. "The driver got to the restaurant and you weren't there and we called your driver and you weren't with him. HE came here immediately and we all waited for our driver but he still couldn't find you. We were worried," Mom explained. "You left me at the restaurant so I found my way home," I said to them. "Can I at least come in?" I asked realizing I was still standing by the door. "Yes," Mom said, stared at me, and asked me why I wasn't wearing my shoes but was holding them. "The cab
