Chapter 1
//It was a late winter evening when mom came barging in my room //
"Chin-Aara darling get ready baby we are leaving back to Seoul !" My eyes widened as some words escaped my mouth "WHATTTT ! I can finally meet my father chin-sook right ? Yayyyy!" I said in a very excited tone . "How many times do I have to tell you that your father's name is Park Jaeho !" .....//mom has always been reminding me that my so-called actual father's name is Jaeho but I can't believe her as I remember a happy life in Seoul with my dad "Kim Chin-sook" and my beautiful mother , "Kim Chan-hee"whom both were very rich ,happily married and dearly loved me and my brother who lived in Busan but his memories faded from my brain long ago .....coming back to the point , my "current " mother really loves me and has taken really good care of me from the past few months we lived in the US for my treatment so I have no other choice to accept her even though my brain refuses to //

"Aara dear please take your luggage and follow me as we are boarding on the plane now " I slightly nodded with a excited smile lifting my lips as I started following her .
//time skip to Seoul //
<excitement and nervousness was just taking the best of me and my heart skipped beats as we moved forward to the airport exit >
We took a ride in a very luxurious and comfortable limo to the huge Mansion triple to the size we had back in the US.
On our way we passed by a comparatively smaller but yet another huge mansion that I could recall in my memories. This mansion was more like a modern-style castle and it had a big window at the front which was balanced by huge pillars carved by very beautiful Greek-styled intrigue patterns. Seeing this struck my brain hard as a sharp pain in my chest arose making me feel like I had a strong connection with the elegant fort that was in front of me seconds ago even though the car had already flashed pass it . Soon a scene more like a memory clicked my mind.
~FLASHBACK ~
Daddy ! Daddy! Can you wreeeallly catccch meyy ? I said giggling excitedly with uneven breaths as I was running really fast while the cold breezes of air pushed my long hair back. "Aaara listen princess don't run that fast ! U might fall and hurt yourself !" Dad said protectively .Soon a beautiful young lady came into my sight but her face wasn't visible as the rays from the sun directly flashed by her face , coming near us she let out a overwhelmed chuckle as she noticed us happily playing in the backyard , "Princess and her daddy please both of u wash your hands and come in and Aara dear don't forget to call your brother ......" as I got interrupted by my "current " mother nervously stating "here we are ,this is your house ! Are u ready to meet your dad after so long? .....he must be missing you" she said as I noticed her gulping //I had a strong feeling that something was wrong as her hesitant expression reflected //.

We took a step in the huge villa as the limo pulled over inside the gate and stopped at the ridiculously enormous main door .
Mom gave me a smile and I just nodded as we both took a step in . The door of this "fort" opened and there we stood to face a tall
mid-aged man with a black suit and his hair flicked back properly with a small , more like a forced smile on his face .He stood there with his back straight and his neck high up which puffed out sparks of arrogance that I utterly hated . It was not long before he broke the silence between us by saying , " welcome home honey !" ,(he said forcing another smile ) . "Chun-Aara your room is on the 3rd floor next to the library located at the end of the hallway led by the front staircase" , he said firmly yet with a very formal tone. Mom signalled me to move further as I nodded in response. I slowly took steps as my mind was still focused on the man whom most likely has to be my father as he was pretty similar to what mom had already described , "very classy , a business tycoon and a slightly serious person" . As I was walking in to the hallway , I soon turned my head back noticing both my "parents" whispering to one another with mysterious smirks on their faces which somehow gave me goosebumps all over me.

Days passed by and I got aware of many places of the house I was restricted to go to . I found my room as the most relaxing and comfortable place in this dungeon of boredom and silence. I had to agree how it was huge compared to my old room at the US , It had a very cosy and a unique water mattress that was the only thing that made a sound around the whole house .
Days turned into weeks as my life became very luxurious and peaceful then the hospitals wards where I spent some horrible nights at, but the love that once sparked in my mother's eyes months ago slowly seemed to be disappearing. Everyday dad came home late with blood stains all over his clothes and mom usually managed to somehow get drunk at that time every night. Life was becoming less joyful due to to lack of love and time a 19 year old needs. Every night I thought of good days with mom back in the US but whenever I drifted to sleep all I dreamt of was weird images of my dad reflecting his evil personality and his brutal behaviour towards people whom I couldn't properly recall but I could feel a agonising pain in my chest whenever something happened to them. I felt the need to know who those people were , who Mr.kim Jaeho and his wife ( my current parents) actually were as I felt like I was living in a lie and nothing and no one was real , everyone seemed to be strangers and fake dummies with no love and emotion that an actual family would have , moreover sometimes it felt as if they had some grudges layered for me deep inside them that I was totally unaware of .
