I Promise

Vie

Walking up the porch she rubbed her shoulder. Exhausted she let out a sigh, "The date turned out well today." she thought and dig through her white bag for her house key. Finally finding it she putted it in the key hole and turned it. Opening the door wider to get in she shouted down the hall.

"I'm home!" She shouted as another women voice that sounds elderly reply back.

"Finally!" The voice shouted and a figure appear from the hallway. The middle age women had on a coat and a bag hung on her right shoulder. The women looked to be in her forties with black straight short hair.

"You took forever!" The women scold at Hee Young.

"I'm only twenty minutes late." Hee Young said as the women putted on her shoes with a frown on her face.

Sighing Hee Young rolled her eyes, "I'll give you ten dollars to your check for watching my daughter." The women smiled and patted Hee Young's left cheek with her right hand facing her.

"That's more like it my girl. If you ever need me again you know I'll be free to help you." The women said and left the house leaving Hee Young standing in the hall way rubbing her head.

"Aish." She mutter tired, walking down the hallway and stopping at the living room finding her daughter watching cartoon.

"Sohee?" Hee Young called out to her daughter. With no response she walked towards her daughter sitting on the couch...............with her eyes closed.

She smiled from seeing this, "Cutie." Smiling, just then Sohee's eyes flutter open with a expressionless face.

"Your home umma." She stated rather than a question.

"Yes sweetie, did Ms.Tee got you to brush your teeth and everything else?" Hee Young ask with Sohee nodding her head. She grabbed the remote control that was on the table and shut off the television.

"I'm going to bed." Sohee reply and walked off leaving Hee Young watching her get farther and farther away.

"Night." Hee Young reply when Sohee got to her room and closed the door. Silence filled the house as Hee Young sat down on the couch. Thinking back today's date she couldn't help but smile, "Plan's working." She thought as she fetched out her wallet from her bag. Finding it she opened it and found her favorite picture.

"Chin Ho" She whisper, she couldn't help but chuckle thinking back to the day she first met him.

[Flashback]

Walking out of building she was tired and rubbing her neck. Then she spotted a man sitting on a bench, he had flowers in his hand and he was.........crying.

'Crying?' Hee Young thought, scanning him on what he wore and what the scene seems to be, she smiled.

"Rich man." Hee Young thought, a simple situation that she know quickly. He got dumped by his girlfriend on the day of their anniversary. Grabbing out her lip gloss and putting some on she put on a fake sincere smile while walking towards the man.

[End Of Flashback]

Sitting on the couch she couldn't believe how easily he'd fallen for her. And how she only wanted his riches with a fake love that turned to a real one. And that day, that tragic day when she finally had the urge to tell him she loved him he'd die.

'Why?' Hee Young thought that day, 'Why do you have to do this to me God?' She thought with an emotionless face.

'Was it because of the horrible wicked things I did?' Hee Young thought when reality brought her back when Sohee started crying that time.

"Sohee." Hee Young whisper out, her precious little thing that is like a ice princess. She won't surround anyone close to her and not even her own mother. Except her cousin Yoobin, 'Perhaps she doesn't like me because she knows what I do.' Hee Young thought.

"After all she's a smart girl." Hee Young said out loud. Thinking how Sohee doesn't have a father made her sad. Getting up from the couch she walked towards Sohee's room and peeked inside, finding her asleep hugging onto her favorite stuff animal her father gave to her.

Walking towards her, she knelt down beside her daughter and her head. Looking at her she had tears in her eyes, Sohee reminded her so much of her father. Their features was perhaps eighty percent alike. Sighing she got up and walked towards the door, before she shut it she looked at her daughter once more.

"I'll get you a dad, I promise." Hee Young whisper out and shut the door walking to her own room.

Sohee opened her eyes, she was awake the whole time. Feeling her mom her hair and saying that last sentence that made her think. Ever since her dad died she had a hard time sleeping, but she gets through it. Looking out the window she found a star shining bright. She smiled to herself, 'Appa.' she thought.

"Your the only one I'll ever have, I promise." Sohee whisper out to the star.
