"H-uh are you sure butler ??" butler just nodded ... I'm so tired I need to escape so that daddy won't scold me ... right I'll go up to the bedroom to go to sleep I'll go to sleep yesss !!! Hehehehe ...
"Hmn ... butler, you're going to take me to my room huh !! because my head hurts" then holding the head effect hahahaha ... butler just laughed out loud ...
"Hahaha !!! hahaha !!! Are you sure? I'll call the doctor Miss Jung ??" nako lagot nahh !!! seems to not believe my excuse ..
"Yes hehehe I'm fine !!! I ran to my room after I heard a car park ...
*5hours later*
Because my room was boring, I fell asleep without realizing it, I just woke up at the knock on the door ...
"Miss Jung, you're coming down. Chairman Jung, President Jung and Director Jung have arrived and put on elegant clothes because Chairman Jung will introduce you to the guests" ??? I mean, I have a lot of tears, I have to hurry, I go to the bathroom to take a bath, then I choose clothes and shoes that suit me, then I put a little make-up on my face and so on ... I hurried down the stairs. I'm not Mr.Lee slash Butler ...
"Miss Jung you look so beautiful !!! In the garden the party will be held this way Miss Jung"
"Party? Ehhh said dinner why party ??"
"Miss Jung, your brain is obviously busy sailing everywhere .... hahaha !!! Come on Miss Jung, President Jung is already waiting for you" I was immediately nervous .... butler laughed out....
"Miss Jung don't worry, it's not bad for him to scold you because you made a mistake !! You run away just to wander around" I just sniffed at what he said ...
"Yes, I won't run away again promise butler...Don't remind me and I think I'm nervous..."
"Next time Miss Jung you can't leave without saying goodbye it's too dangerous for you"
"Yes I won't say it again" he just nodded ..
"Come on Miss Jung, the guests are definitely waiting for you" I just followed him until we reached the garden. Many guests came in pure bussiness attire. When I arrived at the main entrance, I grabbed everyone's attention. Many whispered who I was. ...
"Beatiful lady"
"Looks elegant"
"Who is she ??"
I heard many others but I lost my attention that I was close to the table where grandma, grandpa and daddy were sitting and my with others who looked like bigtime ...
You bowed to me before sitting in the occupied chair. I looked at daddy but he ignored me huhuhu !!! Daddy must be angry again because I ran away for the second time. Chairman Jung stood up and he held my hand infront of the visitors ...
"Good evening everyone !!! May I present to you the heiress of Jung Legacy Corp. My only beautiful granddaughter no one else Suzie Lee Jung graduating to become a successful surgeon doctor" I received a round of applause from the guests .. .Actually I'm a little embarrassed because it's my first time to introduce them to their partner Chairman Jung ...
"Hello !!! everyone I'am Suzie Lee Jung thank you for coming and I'm glad to see you everyone once again thank you for coming" then I smiled and bowed to the guests to pay their respects to them as well ... Chairman Jung guided me back to my seat. Next to President Jung I smiled at him but just snobbed at me. This is what I'm saying ehh !! Nakakaba sobra ....
"Good evening daddy how's the business trip" my daddy said softly ...
"It's really bad Suzie especially since I found out that you ran away for the second time with your bodyguards !! Daddy said angrily." Suzie when I found out again that you ran away from your bodyguards! I swear I will add more bodyguard to you .. .'Don't try me Suzie Jung "daddy said angrily ... I swear I was too nervous to beat my heart ... any time my tears might drip ..
"Excuse me" I don't know where I'm going again. My bodyguard didn't see me so I continued walking until I found myself on my bench. I know I'm a bit far from the party. I don't care. I'll look for them with their staff. Daddy, I just want to cry now. because I'm really jealousto others, I'm free to be sad too much ...
"God Suzie you're just here !! next time don't leave without saying goodbye I'm worried about you too much" said daddy, I don't know why I'm crying so much ...
"Daddy I swear I didn't mean to run away from my bodyguards daddy !!! daddy I'm very very sorry I don't mean it" my tears kept flowing I don't know why I became emotional now.
"Shhhh !!! don't do that again baby you know I'm worried. I almost had a heart attack when I found out you're missing you know I love you so much son you know you're alone I can't forgive myself something bad happened to you son "then daddy hugged me
"Daddy I promise I will do everything to make you proud to me, I 'owe you everything daddy I love you so much" I hugged daddy tightly.
"Shall we !!! We need to go back to the party son to make sure the guests are looking for you !!"
"Huh?" I don't get.
"Today is you're Grandpa's birthday Suzie" her eyebrows rose. Nako lagot !!!
"I said daddy's grandpa's birthday today" Daddy grinned. Daddy seems to be a real woman, he tends to struggle hahahaha !!! I quickly said goodbye to daddy! It's hard for me, maybe the chairman will get upset, it's still hard to tame that hehehe !!!
"You go first daddy I'll take the gift to grandpa"
"Okay but hurry up huh !! The party is about to start you should be there ...
"Okay daddy"
"Hmn ... daddy I'm sorry promise I won't run away from my bodyguards." With matching peace sign.
"Yeah go ahead hurry you start the party is about to start"
I run faster as I can but I collided with something ....
"I'm sorry sir !!! I don't mean it because I didn't notice you" I helped him stand up but the aura was scary like a cannibal my mask is still half face kaloka !!! ...
"It's okay" was very cold when he said ...
I ignored him and ran to the mansion to get my gift from my grandfather ...
When I arrived at the party the guests looked at me I just smiled at
to them ... then I went to the chairman's table
"Chairman Jung happy happy birthday to you I just wanted to say a massive thank you for understanding and everything ... I wish your Birthdays will come and go but the wishes will live together with us and I'm very thankful that you're here infront of me who guided because successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don't wish it were easier; wish you were better. Again happy birthday ... "
Grandpa smiled at me ...
"Thank you !!! My dearest granddaughter ... Do you know? You are the one who makes this home happy !! so you will always remember how much I love you grandson .."
"I love you so much grandpa" I hug him ...

The night was getting darker and more people came home after Chairman Jung said goodbye ... I'm happy for my grandfather because I know he's proud of me because it's only been a month, I'm a full -fledged DOCTOR and I'm also proud of myself because with the amount I've been through, I'm close to being the full -fledged doctor I've dreamed of for a long time. It has always been my dream to be a doctor to help the poor in need. I have many dreams just like to be a Doctor, Law, smart businessman and be a worthy heir ...
I didn't realize that I was here in my room resting. Maybe I need to sleep too because the night is getting darker ...
Other day .....
Other life ....
I wake up my bed, doing my daily routine ...
After I went down to the kitchen I reached Grandpa and Grandma ...
"Good morning grandma, grandpa !!! Where is Daddy ???
"Leave early to take care of that important thing daughter !. Grandma replied
"Aren't you coming in now Zie sister?" Said grandpa
"I'm going in now Chairman Jung. You know that graduating will do a lot of observation" I replied
Grandpa smiled at what I said ...
"Daughter how many times I told you that when we're just here at the mansion grandpa you call me you're too formal daughter" complained grandpa
"Ehh I'm used to calling you Chairman Jung"
Chairman Jung just smiled ...
"By the way sister !!! you're close to twenty !! and it's only been a month since you became a full -fledged doctor and you shouldn't run away because we're only thinking about your welfare, you already know what position you are in ! I just need to increase your guard !!! Every word by the chairman is tinged with anger ...
"Chairman ---" I didn't finish what I was going to say because the chairman entered immediately ...
"Are we going to argue anymore huh! ?? Suzie Jung you know your condition is too dangerous just focus on your studies !! when you graduate after all you will focus on your operation right now you just have to take care of yourself to prepare your body for the operation .... Understood ???. Chairman Jung's long line.
Everyone is afraid of the chairman ....
"Yes, grandpa" he said softly ...
"How are you studying daughter?" Grandpa asked me.
"Good thing grandpa I'm still on top" I smiled at him
"It's good that you can improve your studies, daughter !!!" I saw in my grandfather's eyes that he was proud of me and I was happy with what I had achieved !!!
"Daughter, you don't remember anything" huh? !!! what else is grandpa saying it's fun to think ...
"Huh ??? There are many questions in my mind as to why he asked that question !!! I saw in his eyes that it was as if I was pathetic, I couldn't understand why he reacted like that, it's sad to think that I forgot something important ... I saw in my two eyes that grandma was crying and grandpa was already in tears ... !!!
"I'll be honest, sister, you have amnesia. You got it in a car accident. We can hardly sleep because you're worried that you're comatose for more than a year. You have amnesia, well, you still remember us, especially when you are in a bad mood "Grandpa said tearfully but I can't understand why you have amnesia when I know I just have a fever, I don't know what my reaction will be after knowing everything .. .
"So I hope you can understand, daughter, that's why your bodyguards have been increased because it's for your safety, daughter." I'm happy because I thought I'd be sad when you're bored, but I didn't smile at them and I'm really grateful because they always understand my situation ...
"I love you grandma and grandpa I love you so much" I approached them and hugged .....
After a while, I said goodbye to them, especially since my schedule is hectic so that I can get the degree that I will need to become a surgeon ....
As usual when I come to school they look at me again, it's okay with me because I'm used to it ...
Time passed quickly and I went home again that day I quickly finished the things I needed ...
When I come home as usual they don't have daddy anymore they are always busy with their business and I miss mommy and my older brother in Bejing, China they have a branch of business there actually my mom is half chinese half british with race He is also Filipino because he is mommy's daddyare also half Filipino even if they are not here to stay in the Philippines they are staying in another country. My daddy, on the other hand, is half Korean, half Filipino. He is also not going to stay here in the Philippines, he is also in another country because on a series of business trips, I am the only one to stay here in the Philippines
Our family is business minded so they really don't want me to be a doctor, my family is against me being a doctor, they want me to study business but this is what I want. I want to learn how to handle a business but this is really my dream. At that time, my family almost rejected me because I would rather study medicine than learn to handle business. It doesn't mean that the doctor I hired didn't mean I had no interest in business ...
To the point they don't want me to sing because
my grandfather said "The voice is cursed to make everyone broken" that's what he always told me when I was 10 years old because he didn't want me to sing he beat me then meanwhile daddy, mommy and grandma were furious meanwhile the my older brother was just looking at me, not usclose to my older brother he always scolded me that I was unlucky because of why I was so stubborn. I was just crying that time but it didn't stop me from singing I just really avoided getting caught because I still remember the words "You have no family to go back to" I was sad about the direction of my life I grew up far away my heart will always be with themI'm afraid I might make a mistake and then be compared to others, even if it's painful to accept, but even so, I love them very much. I have been distant from my mother since childhood comparing me to others, she prefers my older brother or should I say they are all favorites. I grew up controlling my actions so I could only get out of the mansion once I wondered if they loved me but it wasn't an obstacle that I wouldn't love them back. Sometimes when I make a mistake, mommy beats me. Why is it that I'm so unlucky? I don't even know why. mommy said but daddy had no reactioncan be traced on his face. I don't change their ridicule of me anymore, sometimes if I make a mistake, daddy will cover me up, sometimes not. When I was still in high school, my mom beat me until I lost consciousness just because I broke my school shoes. I woke up and they scolded me, they were all mad at me. I didn't mean to break because I stumbled in my garden. school attended aspunishment for my wrongdoing they did not feed me dinner and did not put me to sleep in the bedroom but in the maid quarter ever since I felt no pain. I graduated from high school in a public school, they didn't send me to my older brother's school because I had nowhere to go in life, so they sent me to a public school, but even so, I was satisfied with what I had. I learned to save money to stand on my own two feet sometimes I run away to work in a restaurant as a waiter so that I can save even if it hurts me that they treat me like this but I still continued working in that restaurant until I have savedof substantial amount to build my own business. I set up a boutique because I love to design as my business grows, my family knows nothing, especially my mother who did nothing but bite me. I was distant from my mother when I graduated from high school as a valedictorian. I was still happy to tell her what I had achieved. I remember telling her "I'm valedictorian this year mom, I hope you can come" but she just snobbed afterwards. mocked saying "Tsk .... That's all you're going to tell me, it's useless "in the words he left out, I don't know why my life is like this. Until graduation day at school, my speech just ended, no shadow was shown to them, not even one. Even though I received so many awards at that school, my parents at my graduation were my advisors. She is kind to me, she is an old lady so she considers me a child even though I am happy because someone appreciates me. I found out that my older brother who was in college at that time was also graduating. At that time, they were very proud of what my older brother had achieved. My older brother received only praise. At that time, I gave my older brother a gift. He opened the gift I gave him it was a cheap watch it was worth 80,000 but his face remained unresponsive I thought he would accept but he embarrassed me in front of him and mommy because why did I give him a cheap watchbut I told him that was all I could afford with my savings. He threw away the watch I gave him, mommy was angry because of what I did, why did he give me a cheap watch? He slapped me hard because I was sitting on the floor with so much pain on my cheek.
As punishment he cleaned me inside the mansion and did not feed me dinner sometimes I think that maybe I am not their child which is why they treat me like this. I was almost caught up in the morning cleaning inside the mansion I almost fainted with hunger. After that incident they didn't let me out of the house sometimes I cried alone but I still didn't give up I always flirted with mommy telling her that I love her very much but she still didn't care about me. Once when there was a family dinner at home, he introduced me to their partner who was a maid, that time I ran to my room, I was crying because I felt so low, it turned out that I was only considered a maid.
****
Graduation day ....
They all came, including mommy and older brother from China. I am so happy because they will be attending my very important occasion in my whole life.
"Oh well my bastard son is about to graduate". That word that penetrated my soul ....
"Mommy again". I hugged him but he pushed me even though it was embarrassing to see but I still managed ...
"I don't have a daughter". He slapped me and I couldn't stop crying because of the pain he was causing ...
"Mom ---." I didn't finish what I said because he slapped me while daddy, Chairman Jung (grandfather), Director Jung (grandmother) and older brother just looked at me with no reaction on his face ...
"Don't call me mommy because I don't have a child who is stubborn." I couldn't help myself. I said my anger ...
"Why is it like this? It's not my fault that I became a woman. I know I'm unlucky with you, but all my life I've only asked for love and attention. Mommy, since I was a child, you treated me like a maid. I will do everythingfor you to consider me a child mommy what should I do! ?? ". Tears flowed because all my life only now have I had the courage to answer ....
Mommy laughed out loud ...
"Do you know what I want ??? Huh ?? Get out of this house so that our lives will be peaceful because since you came, only misfortune has come into our lives". It's as if I'm covered in ice in my cold, I don't know what my reaction will be, even if it's painful for me but I have to do this, maybe I'm the unlucky one in our house ...
"Will you drive me away mommy ?." I knelt down in front of him to beg him ...
"Don't be like this I've been hurt so much mommy it's so painful that I can't take it anymore". That day I shed my tears and he dragged me like an animal to the door of the mansion ...
"Go away you are worthless child you plague". I wrapped the hem of mommy's dress ...
"Mommy have mercy, don't drive me away". I knelt down in front of him almost kissing the ground even though it was embarrassing for what I did I still begged him not to reject me.
The maid, gardener, butler, and others witnessed what happened, even though it hurt me that the door closed on me I thought when I graduated their treatment of me would change but it didn't. Even though it was heavy inside me to step out of that mansion, I was still able to cope at that time in the village, I didn't know what to do because I did get my diploma as a full -fledged surgeon doctor, but I failed in love.
I didn't know where I was going as I was wandering in the dark terrified then but I was able not for my family to do nothing but reject me but I was able to endure all the hardships I went to the condo I bought it on my own effort they had no idea I have to establish. I went on with my life alone without any sympathy daddy didn't even greet me. But I accept.
As time goes by my business grew and became known all over the world when I left the Philippines to change my life in New York. There I continued my life even though my past was painful, it did not hinder my success. I became a surgeon doctor there I am happy because I have helped many in need.
3 year's later ....
I continued my life even it so really difficult ....
Even it's hard to believe that I'm very successful.
Anger has been my motivation for whatever I have now ....
They haven't even greeted me for more than three years ....
At least once they didn't even look ...
Now I'm back in the Philippines, it's been more than three years since I left the Philippines to have a chance at New York ...
Even so, I already have a friend in New York, just the same as what we went through ...
I just want new life, new style, something unique ...
I grew up with my life dependent on my family ....
Even though I haven't heard from them for a long time, it still hurts me that they will drive me away like a dog ...
I don't need their presence anymore, I arrived here without their support, not even news ...
I accept that they don't love me anymore so they kicked me out, that's really how life is, you have to gamble to be happy ....
****
It's been a long time since I left here in the Philippines, traffic still hasn't changed ...
I came home here to take care of my business ....
Three days when I came here there was no problem because I already have my own house and car ...
I'm back here not only on business but I'm going to visit what I've been leaning on over the years.
I woke up early because at church I was going to have breakfast they were my real friend they nurtured me 'when I was nothing they were the reason why I'm here now they advised me to continue that I start to follow what is beating my heart.
I followed whatever my heart was beating in an instant I reached my dreams.
****
When I arrived at the church I was greeted by Fr. Sonny I hugged him even more than three years ago nothing has changed the former is strong and really kind, I've seen my band here I miss them.
I sing because before I went to New York we also had gigs and sometimes we sang in church for free while we became famous except when I left here for New York, I was the only woman in Zienaki's Band even though it was a long time I left here atPhilippines I still haven't lost communication with them almost every day we talk to my bandmates using skype. We went to church after having a good time.
