When I was A Child, then

Can You Keep My Secret?

I finally made it, and my appa say yes im really happy yes! This is really the day! Im very happy, I hope that
the people there are very much kind to me, in the point that they wouldn't say anything bad to me. But then,
I guess I must forget my identity as Yoomi if I live there, I want to forget everything about me. I thought
while I caught myself smiling. I accidentally glanced at the building that we owned and I remember something.
FLASHBACK
"Wow! Daddy the building was so beautiful" I said with amazement while looking at it
"It is for you Yoomi and for your sister Jammi" my appa said while he smiles at me
"Daddy! Saranghae.!" i said and hugged him
"Oh, since when did you learn in speaking korean" my appa asked me
"Only that word daddy" I said in happy tone
"My child..." he hugged me tightly
END OF FLASHBACK

I cried a little while I reminisce the past, I was only 4 years old at that time, I called him daddy before not
appa, he was concious about us before not like now, he was good at others not like now..Everything has changed a
lot.. I grip my fist just to balanced my feelings that i couldn't define about.
"Huh, Yoomi you must not think about it now, You get what you wanted. The real LIFE" i said to myself
But before that I want to spend my little time in the place where I grow up. I smiled and stand up..
I went back secretely at my father's office by using the fire exit. I get the key of his car and left a note
at his table writing:
APPA, I BORROW YOUR KEY FOR A WHILE

LOVE,
JANGIIEE YOOMIEE


I know appa will understand it. I am very stubborn so much..
I drive on my own and went to my friends house, but she's not there
" Oh well, I will spend it on my own I guess" i said while driving
I went to the village where i Can drive very fast..
"woooooohhh! FINALLY IM OUT! IM GONNA BE HAPPY NOW!!!!!!" i shouted
It's almost time I must return the key of appa's car. I thought. Then i returned it.
After 2 weeks
"It's almost time my child" my mother said to me.
"Im gonna be back so dont cry my unnie" I said to my sister
"I love you sis, Im gonna miss you so much" she kiss my forehead
"Yah I know, but you'll visit me right?" I said "when you visit me you must go with Jasper oppa" i whispered
"Yah! don't tease me" She slap me on my shoulder while in a sad tone.
"Oh its time bye umma! Bye appa & Bye bye Unnie! Take care! Love you" i said while i was waving
Finally I reached the plane and and took a sit, my number was 36 and it is located on the middle. After 12 hours of
travel we finally arrived at Korea,  we get our baggage, I get off from the plane and I took a taxi towards to our
MY house, my appa buy it for a the mean time while I was still searching for a right house or apartment for
myself. Remember we had an agreement that I dont want to live on our rest house because it was too big, and also
it was at Busan so, it's kinda far. And after 1 hour of travel from the airport I arrived at our house and I open
the door and looked around.
"Yeah! It was too big, I cannot live in this place" i stated
While I was looking around a man came from behind
"How's your travel Miss" he asked
"So, well it's fine, but im a little bit tired so i wanted just to sleep" i said in a nice manner
"Ok miss Jang just call me if you need something" the butler said
I went to my room and just observe, my room was big but not as big as my room in California. I remember when I took
the taxi. I spoked to the driver in korean and he just replying in me in Korean too and I notice that he was just
amazed with me and I guess it is because of my Accent haha!

After sitting down in the couch there, I took a bath and sleep. After 2 hours of sleep...It almost 4:30 in the
afternoon. I think about my plans while I have 2 weeks before the class' starts.
 I'm gonna live freely now, this is the start now.. Im gonna live with the fullest of my self the true
me... The real me! What I really wanna be.. Im spending two more years in highschool and Im gonna take college now
my dad wanted me to continue his bussiness while I wanted to take Law.. I wanted to be a lawyer since im 6 years
old.. Now I may accomplished it, I will do this very good.

When I look down and arranged my things, when I suddenly see a photoalbum.
"did I bring this one" I opened it and see our pictures when Im still young, My Mother, My Sister, Me & My Appa
We were very happy then...we live before as one family, we go to watch movie every Saturday, my appa teaches us
in Math if we don't understand it, we eat dinner together everyday, we are really Happy, very very happy.. But one
day everything change, I remember I was still 9 then, I was watching t.v and I heard that 105 people was dead
and it was murdered, they were the workers of our company that wants to have a high salary and my father and the
stockholders decline their request and they protest about their decision and because of that the stocks of our
company goes down.. And after 2 weeks that news popped out in t.v, and everybody says that my father ordered many
people to kill the workers... I don't know about that fact..But I extremely know that my appa would not do that
And time has passed by, we were tore apart.. Really it changed a lot.
I wiped away the tears and I changed my dress, I wear t-shirt and jeans, well that is the only things that i wanted
to wear. Keke~~
I go out to walk around and to see the city what looks like..
 Seoul was very nice..
I see an convenience store and buy Ice Cream, while I was eating my Ice Cream I took a seat at the park near the
store, I saw the kids playing and one boy accidentally threw the ball near me.
"Noona, will you please get it for me" he said
"Oh sure" i replied
I get up the ball and walk towards his direction when a tall boy, reached his hand onto mine.
