SAVE ME

EP 37- Hello parents

They came inside and sat on the couch and you sat infront of them.

There was a long silence and you wanted it to stay silent.

Because you are too afraid to talk, this one meeting has been going on in your head, in your dreams since long.

You did lied to them, but can't they even recognise their own daughter? How can they forget about you as if you never mattered?

Sure there were times you might have acted a bit stubborn to their decisions but does that mean they will completely erase you from their life?

They did. They really did.

Did they never thought of you in all these years and you didn't even saw their faces when you died. You didn't even saw them in years that you spent being alive.

"So, where is Y/n?" Your mom asked as she looked around the room probably looking for you. The kid you.

"I don't know." You said as your gaze laid low on the floor at the rug. "Where is choi's daughter?" Your dad asked.

Why do they keep on asking me?

You knew you were the only person they could get any sort of information about their daughter from. But even if you know that you still don't want them to ask you about it. Because you have no idea what to say.

"I really don't know, I'm busy I have things to do." You said getting up from the couch hoping they get the hint. But they don't. "You think we came from America to Korea just to hear your I'm busy?" Said the lady in the dress as shoots a sharp glare at you, feeling a bit intimated you gulp.

"Then what do you want from me? I don't know your daughter, I don't even know her name. And from what I have heard you left your own daughter at first place. So why now you care huh?" You said it. You asked them the question you never had courage of.

"We always cared, but she didn't." Said your dad as he chuckles in a sarcastic way, "She was so whiny, we gave her everything she ever wanted and yet she acted this way to us. Crying for attention all day long was so annoying—" Said your mom as you froze at your place.

Cried for attention all day long?

You felt so raged by that word.

Yes mom and dad, yes, I got bullied for attention! I cried alone and didn't bothered you with my problems for attention! I did this all for attention! I even committed sui—

For.. attention..

You couldn't help anymore. Your tears burst out of your eyes. Your tears wouldn't stop.

"You bunch of liars! You said you gave her everything?! You never did! Where were you two when she cried all night alone?! Where were you two when she was getting bullied?! Where were you when she almost broke her leg because of getting thrown down stairs?! Where were you when she fell in the hole of darkness?! Where were you when she begged you to not leave her alone?! Where were you huh?! Where were you?!!" You said it all in one breath as you could feel your face buring up in heat. "Where..were you..when she..almost ended her life...?"

"Where were you..when she was facing the whole school calling her names because her parents left her..? Where were you when she felt like a burden to everyone...? Where were you.. when she almost jumped off the bridge on her own birthday...? Where were you..when..she..started self harm..? Where were you..? When did you cared..?"

After you saying it loud. Only your sobs were heard. But not a word from their mouth. You really couldn't deal with this all now. You really couldn't.
