Yuri looked at her sister with pity, then she asked her sister out of the house to look for food with the remaining coins in the piggy bank.

"What do you want to eat, Byul?"

"Hm, I just want ramen." Byul looked at her sister with a smile.

"Let's go!" Yuri tried to comfort Byul with her jokes, and the little girl laughed.

They walk down the sidewalk to go in search of food. There were several street vendors, and both of them entered a simple but delicious ramen restaurant.

"We ordered one regular Ramen," Yuri said to one of the waiters there.

"Alright, wait a minute."

Yuri nodded and then saw Byul who was looking around the restaurant.

"Byul, I'm not hungry, so I will just eat later," said Yuri smiling.

"Are you sure? Haven't you eaten since this morning?" Byul innocently looked at Yuri.

"Yeah, I'm not hungry. I'll just drink water."

Byul nodded, after which the waitress brought a large bowl of ramen in front of them.

"Excuse me, can we have extra spoons and forks?" Byul asked.

"Byul, what for?" Yuri shook her head at the waiter.

"Please," Byul said.

"Okay wait a minute." then he came back with the thing that Byul asked for.

"Byul,!" Yuri leaned towards her younger sister.

"I want to eat this together with you!" Byul stared at Yuri for a minute.

The woman snorted softly, she finally agreed to Byul's request. Then they both ate their ramen until they finished while joking with each other.

On the other hand, Rang was walking according to his heart. He was hungry so he wanted to find some food.

Usually, Rang is very lazy to travel let alone walk like this. But, for some reason this time he wanted to eat ramen.

In the crowd Rang had to constantly hide his strength, he couldn't walk fast even if he wanted to.

Rang stared at his cellphone screen as he was about to enter a nearby ramen restaurant.

BRUG

"Hey!?" Rang's eyebrows furrowed following the wrinkles on his forehead.

"I'm sorry master," Yuri looked down apologetically at the man who was pushed by the door.

"Sorry, you say?" Rang still didn't realize that it was Yuri who was in front of him.

"Master, forgive my sister" Byul looked up at the tall man in the red tuxedo.

"Hey, you! Tell your sister to walk with her eyes!" Rang squeaked in annoyance.

"Shouldn't walking be on foot?" Yuri muttered.

"I can hear you!"

"Oh, it's you!" Rang continued.

"Mr. Rang?" Yuri frowned.

"You! Does my name sound like a bug to you?"

Yuri was stunned, how did he know that Yuri had cursed and insulted the man's name?

"Of course not, your name is very nice. I admire." Yuri's eyes lit up as if truly amazed at Rang.

Rang snorted at the woman sarcastically.

"Master, do you know my sister?" Byul stared at Rang waiting for his answer.

"Yes, your sister applied for a job at my company. But, don't expect much, I have rejected her." Rang bent down to whisper to Byul.

Yuri who heard that immediately pulled Byul into her arms. "Hey, sir! My Lil sister doesn't need to know and you don't need to explain it to her!"

"So what?"

"She will be sad!" Yuri stared at Rang sharply. Then, Byul's crying voice began to be heard loudly.

Rang who saw her immediately widened his eyes,

"I told you she would be sad! This is all your fault!" Yuri shouted at the man.

"Hey sweetie, don't cry, I'll buy you ice cream, okay? How about it?" Rang tries to persuade Byul, but she shook his head, "I don't want to!"

"Okay, whatever you want I will grant you. But, please don't cry, everyone is looking at me now." Rang felt everyone staring at him without blinking.

"I want you to accept my sister to work at your place!"

Rang then stood up straight and crossed his arms. "Ah, you set me up? You did this on purpose, didn't you?"

Suddenly the sound of Byul's crying grew louder. "Huaaaaaaaaa"

"Heyyyyy! Shut up! Okay fine, I'll have your sister work for me, but don't cry anymore."

"Is that true mister?" Byul's eyes lit up,

Yuri just frowned and looked at the smart Byul.

"Tomorrow! Come to my office!" said Rang as he left the two people and entered the restaurant.

Yuri and Byul walked back to the house. "Byul, are you playing?"

"How is it? Am I great right?" Byul grinned widely.

"Who taught you like that?"

"You!" Byul chuckled.

"Me? But, good job Byul hehe. Finally, I will work for that company." Yuri jumped a little.

"Don't forget, after getting your first paycheck, buy me some ice cream!"

"Of course baby girl!" Yuri ruffled Byul's hair.

The two of them returned home happily, they intended to tell their mother that Yuri had got a job.

"Mom, open the door!"

"Mommy," Yuri frowned, she felt worried because there was no answer.

"Are you asleep, mom?" Byul asked looking at Yuri.

Yuri started to feel bad, she was afraid that her stepmother would do something crazy. But, she hopes all those bad premonitions don't come true.

Yuri tried to force open the door, but the door was unlocked.

What a shock when the two of them saw a leg dangling, with a chair lying beneath. They stared slowly at the woman's face.

"Aaaaaaaaah!" they both screamed.

**

Half an hour passed, and the police and ambulance arrived. Yuri and Byul wore mourning clothes and waited for their mother's body to return from the hospital for cremation.

Byul sobbed in Yuri's arms, how traumatized she was to see her mother hanging herself in their house. Likewise, Yuri, however, loved her stepmother.

Now, she and Byul only live together. As much as possible Yuri must support Byul properly.

After her body was delivered to the funeral home, Yuri waited for several guests and relatives to arrive. Even their late stepmother's family came to the funeral.

"This is all because of your father!" Yuri, who was looking down sadly, was now starting to stare at a woman in her 50s who was in front of her.

"Why did you bring my father into this matter?" Yuri frowned.

"Because of your father, my sister is suffering!" apparently the woman was the sister of Yuri's late stepmother.

"Because of that, I will take and bring Byul to live with me!"

"You can't do it!" Yuri shook her head.

Now Byul is eating a meal at the funeral home with other families.

"I can! Don't you think what would happen if Byul lived with you?"

Yuri could only cry, she understood that she could not promise Byul happiness and a decent life. But, it would be very painful if she had to let her sister live with someone else.
