I figured either my family or Brandon had asked one of my classmates to leave them there for me. But I never took any of it.
Instead, I gave everything away to the other residents in my building
During my final year, a huge scandal erupted in the overseas student community.
It was only when I learned the full story from a friend that I realized the main character was none other than my long–estranged
younger sister, Nina.
It turned out that after studying abroad, Nina had quickly abandoned her piano training. All those times she had boasted about
joining the orchestra and earning the admiration of her professors, she’d been doing nothing but lying.
She hadn’t learned anything useful, but she had certainly embraced the “openness” of foreign culture. Her personal life was a
complete mess, and she had even contracted an STD.
Not only that, she even got involved with drugs at a party. She lied to our family that she was seriously ill just so that they would send her money.
But when our worried family personally went to check on her, they caught her red–handed.
Nina must have been high because she had the audacity to lash out. “Don’t you all love me the most? So why did you send money

to that bitch again? If you had just given me the money, I wouldn’t have had to lie!”

During the argument, in a state of delirium, she had picked up a knife and stabbed Adrian. Although he had survived, he had been
left with permanent health complications.
Devastated by the disgrace Nina had brought upon the family, Mom and Dad stopped supporting her financially.
Without money, Nina spiraled even further down the wrong path, eventually infecting several people before returning home,
where she hoped to find someone who would take responsibility for her.
And as fate would have it, the poor fool she set her sights on was none other than Brandon.
Despite all his declarations of love for me, Brandon didn’t resist when his first love practically threw herself at him.
In the end, his first love turned out to be the death of him–he ended up infected with the STD as well.
Brandon couldn’t accept that his life was ruined just like that. In a fit of rage, he hacked Nina to death.
The story concluded with Nina stabbing Adrian and Brandon killing Nina. One was dead, one was wounded, and one was sent to
prison.
Seeing the familiar names, I lamented at their fates, but I felt nothing else.
After I graduated, I returned to my home country and became a key figure in a pharmaceutical company.
My family heard about it and tried to reach out to me. But before they could even see me, security turned them away.
For the rest of their lives, they would live in regret.
They would regret never cherishing the young girl who had been brought back home, and they would regret losing the daughter
and sister who once looked at them with nothing but love.
