1. Adoption

원장 선생님

"Lady, come here."

김여주

"Yes, Director."

At the director's call, I headed to the director's office without even knowing what was going on.

When I entered the director's office, I saw four men and one woman inside.

I cautiously looked into the director's eyes, just in case, but he spoke as if nothing had happened.

원장 선생님

"He is the person who will be taking care of you from now on. Please say hello."

김여주

"I... want to adopt..."

원장 선생님

"hurry."

I didn't want to be adopted because I didn't want to be labeled an adopted child, but I had no choice but to introduce myself briefly because of the urging of the director and the people who were going to take me away who were staring at me.

김여주

"Ah...hello. My name is Kim Yeo-ju, 18 years old."

부모님

"Yes. We've decided to take care of you from now on. Since you're from the Seongdo Kim clan, there shouldn't be any major inconveniences. We'll be leaving tomorrow, so pack your bags and say hello to your friends."

My heart sank at the woman's words that she would be leaving tomorrow.

김여주

"...yes."

부모님

“Seokjin, Namjoon, Taehyung, say hello.”

김석진

"I'm Kim Seok-jin, 20 years old."

김남준

"My name is Kim Namjoon, I'm 19 years old."

김태형

"...17-year-old Kim Taehyung."

For some reason, the way all three of them were looking at me didn't look very nice, but I thought it was just my imagination, so I nodded and greeted them again before leaving the director's office.

김여주

"ha..."

I saw my friends from the orphanage far away.

I clutched my heart that felt like it was being torn apart, held back my tears, and approached my friends.

전정국

"Huh? It's Yeoju!"

배주현

"Hey, let's play together."

김여주

"Guys..."

I had to say something, but my lips wouldn't move.

전정국

"What is it? Tell me~"

배주현

"Why are you so gloomy? Are you going to be adopted?"

Joohyun must have said it as a joke, but my heart sank and my expression hardened more and more.

전정국

"Uh.. Yeoju?"

배주현

"Really adoption...?"

Tears welled up in my eyes, and I felt like they would flow out if I said even a word, so I slowly nodded my head in response.

As Jungkook and Joohyun hugged me tightly and cried, my tears eventually burst out as well.

김여주

"Ugh... sigh... ugh..."

Ah... why are you acting like this without any reason?

I tried to swallow my tears by myself, but the more I tried, the more tears came out, and soon the playground was filled with the sound of our cries.
