It's been three weeks since Mina last visit to your shop.
You switched off the lights , closing your shop.
" Wait !! " A familiar voice shouted.
You turned to the voice , it's Mina.
" You.. you're closing ? " Mina panted.
It's only her alone , her bodyguard isn't with her.
*** SCENE CHANGE ***
" Here you go ! " You served her coffee.
" Thank you so much , I'm sorry that I came in such a late night. " Mina smiled.
" It's okay, customer is always first , right ? " Both of you laughed.
You sat down opposite her.
" Still busy with your father company? " You asked.
Mina nodded softly.
" It must be hard , handling all these pressure in such a young age. " You said.
" I don't have a choice , I don't even have time to get a boyfriend or hangout with my friends. The only thing that's keeping me calm is your coffee. " Mina smiled and sipped her coffee.
You snapped.
" Are you free now ? " You asked.
" Yaa why? " Mina asked.
*** SCENE CHANGE ***
You brought her to the dock.
She's awestruck with the view.

" It's... beautiful... " Mina gasped.
You smiled , watching her enjoying the view.
" Hope it helps you to reduce your stress. " You said.
" Thank you so much. " Mina smiled at you.
" Mina... actually... I- "
" Ms.Myoui , I've been.... looking everywhere for you! " Her bodyguard suddenly appeared behind you two , panting hard.
" What's wrong ? " Mina asked.
" Quick... come with me... your father... " Her bodyguard panted.
*** SCENE CHANGE ***
You and Mina waited outside the emergency room.
Mina kept staring at the door.
You wanted to say something to comfort her , but you don't know what to say.
Every minute is like a decade.
The door opened , a doctor came out.
" Doctor... how's my father? " Mina asked.
" I'm sorry... we did everything we could... he's still conscious for a few minutes , appreciate every second of it. " The doctor bowed and left.
Mina rushed in the room. You followed behind.
" Papa.... " Mina held her father hands.
" Mina... I'm sorry... " Her father said weakly.
" No... don't apologise, papa.... " Mina hugged his hands.
" D-don't... force yourself... shut down... the company.... if you... can't... handle... " Her father is running out of breath.
" I won't. I will make you proud , papa. " Mina tears are felling.
" I'm.... already... proud... " Her father smiled.
" Please... be my... daughter.. again.... in my... next... life.. " A long beep is heard.
" No... NO!!! Papa... no... " Mina cried.
The long beep and Mina crying is the only voice you can heard in the room.
You stared at Mina back. Your heart hurts looking at her like that. She deserve a better life than this.
You walked next to her and placed a hand on her shoulder.
" Mina... I'm sorry... " You said softly.
Mina turned to you and hugged your waist. She's still crying.
You patted her head, letting her cry.
I promised, I won't let you cry again. Myoui Mina. You thought to yourself.
Her bodyguard escort her to her car. You watched her leave.
