“Huh! What a scene? Why are you protecting this ugly duckling?” asked Baek Mee with a scoff and continued,
“Do you have crush on that ugly duckling, is it?” asked Baek Mee while laughing and moving towards Hyuna.
“From where I am seeing, you are the ugly duckling” said Jisung standing between her and Hyuna.
“Very well said” said Lily from the other while clapping.
‘This darn girl! Why is she everywhere?’ thought Baek Mee turning towards Lily.
Everyone reached near the scene and people started to gather around them as most popular kids were standing at the same spot.
“The girl you just harassed is my sister, Choi Hyuna” said Hyeon loudly.
Everyone looked at Hyeon and Hyuna with shock.
“Yes. That’s right. She is Choi Hyuna the heiress of Choi Enterprises” announced Hyeon loudly and people started whisper in shock.
“Is she really
“I am confused. Life is full of lies!!” said Min Ji looking towards Hyeon.“I think we should stop passing comments too!” said Lily plainly.Everyone shut their mouth but the least expected person said something which caught everyone’s attention.“It was all my fault” said Hyeon looking down and everyone turned towards him.“What?” asked all of them in curiosity.“Yeah. you heard right. It all started when we entered middle school. I told her that nobody should ever know that we are related, that she is my sister. I never accepted her because she was ugly, let alone helping her. I am the worst brother in this whole damn world” said Hyeon looking down in guilt.“Hyeon. Don’t……..” Hyuna tried to stop him but he held her hand and nodded giving her the sign that it’s the time.“It’s okay, Hyuna. Everyone deserves to know the
“Thanks for always being there for me, Lily” said Hyuna hugging Lily tightly.Hyeon’s speech made Hyuna realized that Lily always saved her without wanting anything in return. They were not related and she had no benefit after saving her, but still, every time, she was in trouble, Lily was always there to protect her.“No problem” replied Lily smiling.Hyuna and Hyeon left with the peon to the principal office.“They have the same surname! Why didn’t we get suspicious all these years?” asked Eun Ji in a confused tone.“Because we all are fools!” said Lily in disbelief, taking Eun Ji and Min Ji’s hand and leaving.They all waited to support Hyuna. Vice Principal Do called Lily and every person involved with Hyuna one by one. They also took statement of some other students, who are not involved with Lily’s group but was present during several incidents or have been bullied
“So, where are you going for the trip?” asked Layla excitedly to change the mood.‘Freak!! I don’t know where I am going for the trip! I was too bothered by Hyun Jin’s past and stuff and then Hyuna’s case. I have no freaking idea about the trip!’ though Lily in disbelief.“Well. I didn’t ask. I was very disturbed from the morning, you see” said Lily with a nervous smile.“What?? You don’t know where you are going for a trip??? That’s absurd!! Now you have disappointed me!!!” shouted Layla in disbelief.“I just know that we are going for an industrial visit then for camping or vice versa” said Lily with an awkward smile.‘What am I supposed to do? This dragon gets really agitated when it comes t trips!’ thought Lily nervously.“At least you know something” said Layla while keeping her delicate palm of her for-head.&l
“We are going Busan Vineyard because it’s close to our next location! We will be staying at ‘Lycanthrope’ hotel branch in Busan, which belongs to our dear dear Min Jun, for the night” said Min Ji with a chuckle as she knew what would be Lily’s next reaction.“Why that hotel?” asked Lily annoyedly.“Because it’s a luxury hotel, love” replied Min Ji stopped herself from laughing.“There are so many other luxury hotels which belongs to Parks and Youngs in that area!! We could stay at any of that!!!” said Lily offended.“Because it is closest to our destination!" exclaimed Min Ji trying to sound serious.Lily could hear Eun Ji, Jiyoung laughing on the phone and her own sister laughing from behind.“Now, don’t interrupt me again! After that, we will visit Cheong Vineyard on the second day. After drinking a hefty amount of wine, I mean a moderate amount
“What happened, mumma? Is something up?” asked Lily and Layla in unison.Their mother ran towards Lily and hugged her.‘Oh My God! Does she know about any of my accidents? How did she know? That can’t happen!! Who informed her?’ thought Lily in fear.“You are such a kind and brave girl. My little barbie doll” said Mother Kim hugging her tightly.Brother Liam looked at her sister who was been chocked in a hug and asked her in sign language what happened and she shook her head in no that she also have no freaking idea.Her mother released her after she was satisfied.“Come sit with me, my kind and beautiful daughters. Mumma needs to talk to you.” said Mother Kim politely while taking their hands and sat in the middle of them on the sofa.“Henna called” said Mother Kim stroking her hair.“And?” asked Lily confusedly.“Choi Henna is Hyuna&rsq
“Hello, Henna. I asked Lily about the favor you asked. She said she will do it. She asked your daughter before but…” said Mother Kim and left the room while talking to Mrs. Choi Henna.“Go start packing your stuff” said Layla turning towards Lily as she knew her sister needs some private time after going through a lot in a single day.“Okay, see you later, Alligators” said Lily with a smile and left for her room.Next morning,Lily woke up from the same nightmare, she is been having for years. She was all sweaty but she was shivering in fear. She looked here and there and realized that she is in her room and it was the nightmare again.Her hand was on her chest where that cruel lady stabbed her. She sat calmly on her bed to stabilize her racing heart.“Ah! It was just a nightmare” she said to herself while holding her chest and rest her head on the pillow.“Oh
She sat on the driving seat of her car and left for her destination. She reached her destination by 30 minutes.When she rang the door bell, a familiar person opened the door.“Lily, hey, what are you doing here?” asked Hyeon in shock.“Well. I was invited by….” Lily tried to answer but was cut off by an excited soul.Mrs. Choi Henna screamed in excitement when she saw Lily at the front door.“Oh My God!!! Lily, you are here!!! Thank you so much for coming. I can’t tell you how grateful I am” said Mrs. Choi Henna coming towards the door.Hyeon was still shocked looking at Lily here and also his Aunt’s reaction, that he didn’t move at all.“Move aside, you rascal!” she said pushing his nephew aside.“Hello, Mrs. Choi Henna. Nice to meet you” replied Lily with a polite smile. Her eyes were widened for a moment when pushed Hyeon and he fell on the
“I think we have to start doing things with the very beginning. Looks like we have a lot to do!” said Lily with a nervous smile.“You bet” said Mrs. Choi Hazel in a disheartened tone.Her mother and her aunt both were looking at Hyuna in disbelief.'Is that weird girl really my daughter?' thought Mrs. Choi Henna feeling sorry for herself at the moment.“Don’t worry. Every problem has a solution and in this case, it’s called the SHOPPING” said Lily passionately while closing her hands into fists and closing her eyes to feel the emotion.Lily and Hyuna left from Choi’s house in Lily’s car for their long awaited shopping trip. They were going to Seagull Pavilion mall, where Lily promised, she will meet Eun Ji and Min Ji.“Lily, I am really sorry about my mother and aunt’s behavior” said Hyuna looking down in embarrassment.“That’s okay. They were ex
