  "I have to go work now Joonie!"

  "You can miss another day. . ."

  "You know I can't! Isabel deserves a nice future and you need to focus on college. I'll do my job and earn money for us."

  "But you're always working. . ."

  "Maybe that's just life."

  "Hyung. . . Isabel has her recital after school. Will you be able to make it this time?"

  "I can't. . . they really won't let me leave Joonie. . . we'll celebrate tonight as a family though!"

  "Oh. . . alright."

  "Joonie. . . I'm sorry. . ."

  "No you're not."

  "You know it's because of work. . ."

  "I know."

  "Then why can't you understand I still love you?"

  "Because it doesn't feel like it."

  "I'll show you then!"

  "Let's go on a date again Joonie!"

  "Okay Jinnie! I'm happy you've changed. . ."

  "Me too. I'm thankful it didn't ruin out relationship."

  "But it did. . ." (whispered quietly)

  "Why are you showing me these father?" Isabel asked as they watched the little tapes.

  "This all happened that year he died. I think it's best if you saw those videos first."

  "Can you explain to me now?"

  "We never got really close because of work. It just piled up that year and took a major impact on our relationship."

  "We did manage to fix the problem, but by then one of us had committed a cruel act that can never be forgotten."

  "What did you do?"

  "I cheated."
