''She's been stuck in her room for days.''  

''I don't know what to do hanata.'' she could hear her mom whisper despite the fact that she was drowning in her own despair. 

''It'll be alright Yuki-koi, Ai-chan will bounce back from this like she always does.'' Her otou-san said positively. 

How do you get over the sudden death of your best friend?

''What about a nice trip?'' he suggested. 

''It could be good for her... new place, new start?'' A slow smile began to form on Yuki's face as she tiptoed up and give a sweet long kiss to her husband.

''I know I had a reason for marrying you.''She teased as he rolled his eyes playfully. 

He gave her one last hug before moving downstairs to long at potential flight destinations for his daughter.

2 days later...

They had decided on Seoul, South Korea.

Aileen didn't protest, she didn't have the energy too, she would be staying with her godmother, Kim Su Mae.

Her ka-chan kept hugging her and she sighed.

''Ka-chan....can you stop. I'm going to Korea not Mars.'' She complained as she tried to get through her mothers bear hugs.

''Gomen Ai-chan...'' she said sheephishly.

''To-chan...please look after her, I'll be fine. I'm 21. I'm independent. I'll be fine.'' She looked up at her father ,internally scowling at the major height difference. He was 6'1, she was 5'3. It was unfair sometimes. 

He chuckled and she didn't found herself between a parental sandwich.

''You guys...'' 

FLIGHT 453 TO SEOUL IS NOW BOARDING, ALL PASSENGERS PLEASE HEAD TO GATE 33.

FLIGHT 456 TO SEOUL IS NOW BOARDING, ALL PASSENGERS PLEASE HEAD TO GATE 33.

She jumped at the intercom and hugged each parent silently. 

She grabbed her carrion bag and walked towards the gate entrance as the stewardess was taking the tickets. 

She stopped and ran back to her mom and a withheld the eventual sob that she felt emerging.
