Subject: I am sorry.

Good day, Miss Yu.

I am sorry about your parents. Frankly, I do believe some parts of your story. Yeji told me about her addiction, so I believed that part. One thing I cannot make sense of, however, is how you managed to survive. You were not yet 18 when they kicked you out, looking for a job must have been hell. 

Also, if Yeji did say those things about you, I am sorry. She was sober for the last three years we've been together, but when I told her about you, all her efforts of getting clean were down the drain. You triggered her somehow, and I wanted to know if it is guilt that made her drink or a memory she does not want to remember. 

Thank you so much for responding again. And I hope that you take care of yourself, especially with the nature of your work. 

Sincerely,

Winter Kim
