I heard footsteps behind me just before someone griped my hand. I turned around and then 3 guys surrounded me.

Why are this guys chasing me? How can this be happening?

 

I have never been rich nor have more than I have ever needed. But my parents did everything to support me and helped me with my studies. 

Because my father died when I was 19, I never went to collage because I was the only person who could financially support our family and I found a job in a coffee shop, even if it's not much I do my best to move forward.  It was interesting how I got the job, I said the truth about me in the intreview ... I still remember that time:

 

- Why do you wanting this job?-

- It's because my father just died and I'm his only child so I need to support my mother who is in mourning...Besides I considered myself as a person who wants people feel comfortable and I'm also a hardworking person.

I was waiting for his answer and that made me more nervous

Okay, you have the job- he said

Thank you very much, Mr- I said with a broadly smile and trying to shake his hands

Don't think that I gave you the job because I feel pity, Okay? I hired you because you look sincere and hardworking... only for that- He said and shoke my hand

 

I'm already 21... so I got used to this kind of life. My mom is getting sicker and her medicine are even more expensive so I need to work harder.

 

They look like gangsters... Will they kill me? I thought

His voices starled me - Are ya Seok Minseo?

HOW DOES KNOW MY NAME!? I HAVE NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE

Seok Byungho's daughter?- HE KNOWS MY FATHER?

Who are you?- I asked shyly

Name is George- he said in rude mode

How do you know my father?- I was wondering why they knew about my father

Hahaha, How ya ask? That bastard, he debts with us-  he's so fed up

A debt?- He comes closer still gripping my hand - Yeah, sweetie... as you heard, a debt- He whispered 

His face is even more repugnant that his manners

No, it's impossible!- I said... How could my father met these thugs?

No lie, we lend him cash when he needed, in other words, we saved him... I think we need a the pay....any kind of payment- He said as he looked me from head to toe and I felt a shiver down my spine.

What is going to happen to me?

 

FLASHBACK

But we can't pay it- Minseo's mom said worried

We need the money, I'll ask for a loan- Her dad said holding both hands of his wife with an ressuring face

I'm not sure honey- She looked away, still wondering

It's for Minseo's future, it's not impossible honey!- He tightnen his grip gently

Araso! [OK] But where? How? How much are you...?- She was interrupted

No problem! I'll do it well, trust me- He smiled and and kissed her cheek to alliviate her distress

 

I was at the door and heard everything... but I didn't understand anything,...now that I remember everything, I was only seven and my parents got only a few dollars

I can feel how my eyes and my nose are getting wetter, but I can't, I need to be stronger (sniff)

My dad is not longer here, so I need to seek for the sake my mom (sniff)

 

Hey sweetie, what's wrong?

You think that with a little tears you can convice us to leave you alone?

No, I don't pretend that- I said looking at them a bit annoyed while I tried to wipe my tears with my sleeve

So, give us the money or ...anything else- He said in a huff

I don't have your money nor anything else!!!

YOU WHAT?! WELL, WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF WE KIDNAPPED YOU? WE COULD ASK FOR A RANSOM- They approached me and holded my arms as I tried to escape

MY MOM DOESN'T WORK, I'M THE ONLY ONE WHO DOES... KIDNAPING ME WON'T GIVE YOU YOUR MONEY BACK- He shut my mouth and smiled mischiveously *gulp*

YOU KNOW? WE HAVE OTHER METHODS- He was looking at my body, I felt how my eyeballs hurt for how open they were for the surprise for his lustful eyes 

Boss , Can we keep her? She's pretty....and smells nice... WHAT WILL THEY DO WITH ME?

YOU LOOK CUTE- He lift my chin - More than cute I guess, you have potential- FOR WHAT?! HE TOUCHED ME WITH HIS HIDEOUS HAND!!!

And you look healthy too, It looks that we can take our money back!! AHAHAHA-

Guys put her in the trunk, we'll sell her in the black market

WHATTTT???!!! THE BLACK MARKET???!!!!

Or even better, we'll keep her for ourselves...-

GET AWAY FROM ME!!!!

 

She said get out from her!! Didn't you listen?

Someone in the distant said but I couldn't distinguish his face, I knew that it was a "him" for the silhouette that was reflected by the lamppost

WHO ARE YA?- The gang said at unison

 

IS MY KNIGHT OF SHINNING ARMOR AND HE IS HERE TO RESCUE ME!!!
