Chapter 22: Sorry

Kim Hye-Ri

I walk nervously into my father's office, throwing the big brass doors open. "Oh Hye-Ri, glad you could make it. I've already packed your usual things into your room that you'll be staying at." My father says gesuturing to a luggage bag on the floor. I glare at him, "I won't be staying here father. I just came to tell you I know."

My father throws back his head and laughs. "You? Are you trying to tell me you know?" I nod, "You can't keep me here. I'm free to go." My father smirks, "Okay then lets hear it. What's this secret of his?"

And this was it. I was finally going to be free. "Baro, or should I say Sunwoo doesn't know how to play poker. In fact he doesn't even like it! The only reason he's playing is so he can earn money for his sis.." I start to say, but trail off at the end. "What was that?" My father asks, "Sorry didn't really hear anything about a secret there." he says cupping a hand over his ear. "He earns the money for his sisters..." I say quietly. My stomach starting to feel quesy. I forgot. I forgot that his sisters are still missing and
