JFK airport

"Okay... I am lost. I am not going to lie to myself, and pretend I got this, because oh god I don't know what I am doing right now." y/n says in a rushing way, while the middle-aged woman just stares at her trying to figure out what see needed help with. "I came here not prepared! I didn't come with enough money; I am by myself in a country that I have only been once! I must me out of my mind!!! Ok- no y/n, calm down breath in, breath out...." While y/n was having her little mental breakdown, the woman decides to speak. "look miss, I am not sure of what you are in need for, but all I can tell you is that you are going to be alright, if I got that right you've been here before right?" y/n slowly nods her head. "but I was not alone, and it was California..."

"oh well that's great, you know my son studies there, maybe you've met him before. But anyway, you will be fine, just do not stress it out too much, okay? Now I have a plane to get, it was nice meting you. Wish you luck." With that the lady left, and now y/n had to go and try to at least survive in such a big city.

Dior

17 East 57th Street, New York

"what about this one? Do you think dad will let me use it for the party? I heard that there are going to be so many handsome men there, so I got to be looking like my best self..." the girl giggles in excitement turning towards her brother. "Jimin are you even listening???" He quickly puts his phone inside his pocket and looks up at the girl. "yeah, sure it looks good." he said while pointing at both the dresses, while with the other hand he covers his mouth like he is thinking... "okay, look Rosy, for me... They look the same..." Rosé groans in annoyance. "you really are no help, why couldn't mom come help me pick a dress?" She walks towards the changing room and shuts the door. "look I don't see why you are picking the dress now, the party is in august, and besides there will most likely be just old rich man there." Rosé just opened the door to get out of the changing room, and now she was back in her normal clothes. "Look, you can act like a man all you want, just.not.while.i.am.picking a dress for the party for the love of god!" she shouts annoyed, while Jimin just cover his ears since Rose's high pitch scream are like ear-rape for him. "okay, okay I am sorry, just don't keep raping my ears like that jeez..."

4:00 PM

in some restaurants in New York city.

y/n was doing well living by herself, in an unknown city. She got a job as a waitress in a nearby restaurant. She lives in a small apartment, where the rent is not that bad. Who would've thought that she would be living in the Big Apple city?

Her day at work was going like any other day at her job, until a family came in. a girl that seemed to be around y/n's age and a guy that seemed to be older than her. The family looked happy, and rich too... well if rich means happy, then they were very happy. Who seemed to be the father caught her eye, she could not tell right away, but when she got it, she was feeling so many feelings, not good feelings... Anger, sadness, confused.

"is that... dad?

13 years ago.

Seoul, South Korea.

???: "y/n, love I am sorry, but I have to do this, you'll be fine I promise."

y/n was in tears as her father gave her a last hug before he got in his car and left. She cried and tried to call him, but just like her mother and sister, he left her.

*Back to present*

y/n was in shock, as she saw her father that she though was broken by the loss of his wife and his daughter. But he was here, with a new family, having a fun family dinner. When her mom and sister were still alive, they never really went to a family dinner, but that is because her parents were working most of the time working... or at least that is what she thought. She didn't want to act paranoid, but she could not help it. What if her father came home late at night because he was with this lady? What if he left her because he of them? Did he really care about us? Or was he just with mother because of the money she got?

She snapped out of her thoughts when she noticed that she was staring... 'don't be a weirdo y/n...' She walked back into the kitchen. She didn't want to come face to face with her father, because after all he left.... she just hoped he had a good reason...
