"If you don’t want to know what’s pain, don’t love anyone truly and if someone loves you truly never show them what’s pain."

 

[ENGLISH] Your worst enemy stole your necklace, the one which your deceased father gave to you before he died.  In order to return it back, you need to pretend as his girlfriend in front of his ex-girlfriend, friends and family. But what if your “pretend feelings” for him in front of the people become for real?

[TAGALOG] Yung kaaway mo kinuha yungnecklace mo, yung bigay sayo ng ama mo bago siya mamatay. Para mapabalik yun sayo, kailangan mo'ng magpangap na girlfriend niya sa harap ng ex-girlfriend, mga kaibigan at pamilya niya. Pero paano kung yung pagpapangap mong feelings para sa kanya sa harap ng mga tao ay maging totoo?

INTRODUCTION:

[ENGLISH]

 

Minri’s POV:

“I like you… I really do… Do you like me too?” [Baekhyun]

“Yes. I like you too.”

Then I heard people laughing. Wait, I’m here in our classroom and everyone is staring and laughing at me? So I’m daydreaming again?

“MISS CHO~! SINCE WHEN DID YES, I LIKE YOU TOO BECOME AN ANSWER TO AN EQUATION?!”

Geez. This is so embarrassing! I look like a fool right now. >___<   So I stood up and bowed.

“Chwesonghamnida~! Chwesonghamnida~! Chwesonghamnida~!” [chwesonghamnida-sorry]

“Alright. Since you’re not listening, you may go out, NOW!”

I went out the room and slapped myself. Arggghhh. I’m so stupid! Why am I daydreaming in the middle of the class? Stupid Minri! >__<  It’s our last subject so it’s better if I would just go home and look for some updates about my favorite group, Super Nova.

But while walking the way home….

0_____________o

I SEE FIREMEN AND OUR HOUSE IS ON FIRE! WAIT, MY FAHER… MY FATHER IS INSIDE!

 “WHERE’S MY FATHER?! WHERE’S MY FATHER?!” I shouted to the firemen while crying.

“We are trying our best to look for your father.”

“WHAAT?! WHAT KIND OF FIREMEN ARE YOU?! LET ME INSIDE!”

“BUT YOU CAN’T!”

He held my hand. But I can’t stay sill and wait. So, I kicked the fireman who holds me and went inside. I want to find my father. I want to save him. I don’t care if I die, as long as my father is alright.

“APPAAA~! APPAA~~!!! WHERE ARE YOU~?!” (appa-father)

The smoke… I need to do this for my father. I tried my best to go inside his bedroom. I opened it and I saw him…..

“APPAA~!”

“Min-minri. Go now.”

“Aniyo, I’m going to stay with you. Let’s go now!” (aniyo-no)

“Please… My body can’t stand up and walk. I’m too weak because of the carbon dioxide in my body.”

“But appa~!”

He gave me a necklace.

“Promise me you’ll wear and treasure this. Promise me you’ll take care of your eomma and oppa.”

“Of course.” And he…. He closed his eyes. Aniyo~ He is still alive right?

“APPA? APPA? APPA? WAKE UP! PLEASE! I CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT YOU.”

And the fireman saw us. He guided us outside the house and piggybacked appa. I saw oppa and eomma. (eomma-mother) I cried and cried. I really can’t believe about this. No.. My father…. Is this a nightmare?

 

[ AFTER HIS FUNERAL—AFTER 3 DAYS]

Min Kyu’s POV: (Minri  & Kyuhyun’s Mother)

I’m here at the park where we first met. I really can’t believe what happened. My husband just died and I never had the chance to tell him the truth about Minji’s real identity. (AUTHOR: About this, it will be revealed on the following chapters. Please anticipate it.^^) Before this happened, I didn’t showed him what he really is to me. What I’m feeling right now, it really hurts. All I remember right now are the bad times… The times I lied to him… As for now, my conscience is killing me. But then someone spoke…

“Are you alright?” I turned to back.

“Chae Rim?”

“Yes, it’s me. Are you alright?” I hugged her and cried. She is my childhood friend and like a real sister to me. When her parents died, my parents adapted her. But we fell in love with the same guy, causing us to fight and lost communications with each other. [AUTHOR: About this, it will be revealed on the following chapters. Please anticipate it. ^^)

“How are you? It’s been a very long time since the last time we saw each other. 17 years? I’m really sorry for what happened before.”

“Let’s forget about it. And besides, I don’t want to talk about it anymore. When I saw you on television, I hurriedly looked for your place and went here. So what’s your plan? Do you have money? Where will you live?”

“Honestly, I really don’t know. It might be our land but we still don’t have enough money to build another one. Everything just vanished like air. I’m planning to sell my land and use the money for the studies of my children. I’m going to find a job in Seoul.”

 “Don’t worry. I’ll help you. You can live in our house and work as a nurse in our hospital.”

“No. It’s alright.”

“But Min Kyu! Please. I want to make up with you again. I owe my life to you and your family.”

“Uhm, alright.”

We went to look for them and spotted them near the park.

 “Minri and Kyuhyun, I want you to meet your Aunt Chae Rim.”

“Annyeonghaseyo.” They said in chorus.

“Chae Rim, these are my children, Minri and Kyuhyun.”

“They are so beautiful and handsome, and polite too, just like their parents.”

“Not from me, maybe from their father. Keke. By the way, I want to inform you that we’re going to Seoul.”

“But eomma, where will we live? How about our studies?” [Kyuhyun]

“You’re going to live with us. There’s a school near our house where scholarships are open. Your mother said you two are smart so I’m sure you can pass the scholarship test.”Minri’s POV:

“I like you… I really do… Do you like me too?” [Baekhyun]

“Yes. I like you too.”

Then I heard people laughing. Wait, I’m here in our classroom and everyone is staring and laughing at me? So I’m daydreaming again?

[TAGALOG]

Minri's POV:

"Gusto kita.. Gusto mo rin ba ako?"

"Oo. Gusto din kita."

At narinig ko ang mga tao na tumatawa. Teka, nandito ako ngayon sa classroom at lahat ay nakatitig at pinagtatawanan ako? Nagdadaydream na naman ba ako?

"MISS CHO~! KAILAN PA ANG OO, GUSTO DIN KITA NAGING SAGOT SA EQUATION?!"

Haay naku! Nakakahiya talaga! Mukha ako'ng tanga ngayon. >__<  Kaya tumayo ako at nagbow.

"Chwesonghamnida! Chwesonghamnida! Chwesonghamnida!" (chwesonghamnida-sorry)

"Oh sige, total hindi ka din naman nakikinig, maari ka ng lumabas, NGAYOON!"

Lumabas ako ng room at sinampal ang sarili ko. Arggghhh. Ang tanga ko talaga! Bakit ba ako nagdadaydream sa gitna ng klase? Tangang Minri! >__<  Last subject na naman namin yun kaya mas mabuti pa atang umuwi na lang ako. Makakakita pa ako ng updates tungkol sa pinakagusto kong grupo, ang Super Nova.

Pero habang pauwi....

0______________________o

MAY MGA BUMBERO AT NASUSUNOG ANG BAHAY NAMIN! TEKA, SI APPA (appa-father).... NASA LOOB SI APPA!

"NASAAN SI APPA? NASAAN SI APPA?" Sigaw ko sa mga bumbero habang naiyak.

"Ginagawa na namin miss ang lahat para makita ang papa mo."

"ANOO? ANO BANG KLASENG BUMBERO KAYO? PAPASUKIN NYO AKO!"

'PERO HINDI PEDE!"

Hinawakan ng bumbero ang kamay ko para hindi ako makapasok. Hindi naman ako mapakali at maghintay. Kaya sinipa ko ang bumbero na may hawak sakin at pumasok sa loob. Gusto ko siya mahanap. Wala akong pakielam kung mamatay pa ako, basta ok lang siya.

"APPAA! APPAAA! ASAN KA BA?! NANDITO NA AKO!"

Ang usok... Kailangan ko tong gawin para kay Appa. Ginawa ko ang lahat para makapasok sa bedroom niya, baka nandun siya. Binuksan ko ang pinto at nakita siyang nakahiga. Mukhang nasuffocate na ata siya.

"APPA!"

"Minri. Umalis ka na."

"Hindi, dito lang po ako. Umalis na po kasi tayo!"

"Please... Hindi na kaya ng katawan ko na tumayo pa. Masyado ng maraming carbon dioxide ang pumasok sakin."

"Pero Appa!"

Binigyan niya ako ng necklace.

"Basta ipangako mo sakin na aalagaan mo ang mama at kuya mo."

"Opo." At... At sinara na niya ang mga mata niya. Bumahay pa naman siya diba?

"Appa! Appa! Gumising na po kayo! Hindi ko po kaya na mawala ka."

Nakita kami ng bumbero at ginuide niya kami palabas. Nakita ko sina Mama at Kuya na naiyak. Hinug ko sila at umiyak ng umiyak. Hindi to totoo diba? Nightmare lang to?

[PAGKATAPOS NG LIBING-AFTER 3 DAYS]

Min Kyu's POV: (Minri and Kyuhyun's Mother)

Nandito ako sa park kung saan kami unang nagkakilala. Hindi talaga ako makapaniwala sa mga nangyayari. Nmatay ang asawa ko ng hindi ko sinasabi ang buong pagkatao ni Minri. (AUTHOR: Tungkol po dito, irereveal po ang buong kasagutan sa mga susunod na chapters. Abangan nyo. ^^) Bago to mangyari, hindi ko manlang pinakita sa kanya kung ano talaga siya sakin. Yung nararamdaman ko ngayon, napakasakit. Ang naaalala ko lang yung mga masamang nangyrai. Yung mga panahon na nagsinungaling ako sa kanya. Sa ngayon, pinapatay akong konsensya ko. Hanggang sa maynagsalita...

"Ok ka lang ba?" Tumingin ako sa likod.

"Chae Rim? Ikaw ba yan?"

"Oo, ako nga to." Niyakap ko siya at umiyak. Si Chae Rim kasi ay childhood friend ko and parang tunay na kapatid ko na din. Nung namatay magulang niya, inampon siya ng magulang ko. Pero iisa lang ang minahal namin. [AUTHOR: Tungkol po dito, irereveal po ang buong kasagutan sa mga susunod na chapters. Abangan nyo. ^^]

"Kamusta ka na? Napakatagal nating hindi nagkita. 17 years ba yun? Sorry talaga sa mga nangyari nuon."

"Kalimutan na natin ang lahat. Ayoko na din pagusapan yun. Nung nakita kita sa tv, hinanap ko agad kung saan ka nakatira at pinuntahan ka. Ano bang plano mo? Saan ka titira?"

"Sa totoo lang, hindi ko talaga alam. Lupa man namin yun, wala naman ako'ng pera na magpagawa pa. Lahat ay nawala ng parang hangin lang. Plano ko'ng ibenta ang lupa at gamitin sa pagaaral ng mga anak ko. Maghahanap ako ng trabaho sa Seoul."

"Wag kang magalala. Tutulungan kita. Pede kang tumira samin at magtrabaho bilang nurse sa aming ospital."

"Hindi. Ok lang."

"Pero Min Kyu~! Please. Gusto ko bumawi sayo. Utang ko ang buhay ko sayo at sa pamilya mo."

"Uhm, sige."

Nagkwentuhan kami ng kung ano-ano. Hay naku. Namiss ko talaga to'ng si Chae Rim. Hinanap namin sina Minri at Kyuhyun at nahanap namin sila malapit din sa park.

"Minri at Kyuhyun, naalala nyo ba yung kinuwento ko sa inyo dati? Yung may inampon ang Lola at Lolo mo pero wala na kami masyadong communication kasi nagkaproblema?"

"Opo." Sabi nila ng sabay.

"Ako nga yung Aunt Chae Rim nyo. Ako yung tinutukoy ng Eomma nyo." at nagbow sila ng sabay.

"Chae Rim, eto sina Minri at Kyuhyun. Oo nga pala, gusto kong malaman nyo na sa Seoul na tayo."

"But Eomma, saan tayo titira dun? Tska paano yung pagaaral namin."

"Titira kayo samin. May school na malapit samin na nagbibigay ng scholarships. Sabi ng Mama nyo, matalino naman kayo at sigurado akong makakapasa kayo."
