When Yuna regained consciousness, she could hear a woman cheering, "it's a girl!" The woman had a surgical mask covering the bottom half of her face. She resembled a ninja, but her clothes were too bright to be considered a ninja. She assumed that maybe it was normal to dress this way in this world. Yuna looked around and noticed a random metal box that kept making odd sounds. She had never heard anything like it. The ninja lady gently passed Yuna over to her mother.
Yuna’s mother cradled her in her arms while gently stroking her hair. She didn’t have much hair, but it felt nice. Yuna gazed into her mother's eyes and felt the warm sensation of a protective mother. She never had a mother figure in her previous life and so this feeling squeezed at her heart. Tears began to fill her bitter eyes. She was thankful to god for letting her experience a new life.
Her father came rushing through the doors with the same outfit as the ninja. As soon as he saw the child in his beloved's arms, he couldn't help but feel extreme joy and content. Her father’s voice disturbed the quiet atmosphere with his obnoxious and lively voice, "I can’t believe it! It’s a girl! Honey, what should we name her? She looks just like you. I'm so glad she doesn't look like me!"
Yuna's mother pondered for a while before making her decision. "How about we name her Yuna? I just feel like that name resonates with her. I don’t know why, but I just feel like she was destined to have Yuna as her name. Don’t you think so? “
Her husband gleamed, "Yuna sounds like a fantastic name! I can't wait to take her home and spoil her!" His wife glared at him, "Don't you dare spoil our daughter! If she becomes a lazy good for nothing, I will have no one else to blame but you!" Her husband put on his best 'don't blame me I'm just being a doting father' smile. His wife couldn't help but shake her head in annoyance. This man is going to spoil her rotten.
Yuna watched the couple bickering at each other and couldn't help but laugh. 'My parents happen to be two idiot lovebirds that don’t know a thing about parenting, but at least I’ll know that they’ll love me unconditionally as their child.' It’s better than what she went through in her previous life. She didn’t get half as much attention as she did with her new parents.

Yuna spent the last 5 years getting used to the modern world. She was amazed by all the high-tech objects that weren't in her previous lifetime. Who would've thought that there were boxes that flew in the sky and boxes that humans could get into and travel from point a to point b? She was determined to figure out how all these things were created.
Yuna was too busy trying to learn new things to realize that she had blown her cover too soon. Her parents were astounded by how fast she was learning everything. They noticed that she learned things much quicker than most children. They couldn’t understand how she was able to memorize anything and everything. She could recall any information that she came across without any effort.
Her parents were planning on spending a long time teaching Yuna basic words and numbers with flashcards, but that only became a one-day thing. As soon as her mother took out the flashcards and flipped through each one, Yuna had already memorized everything within seconds. Her parents soon discovered that she had picture perfect memory.
Her father bought a bunch of storybooks thinking that Yuna would grow up reading them repeatedly till almost all of them were worn out. He didn’t expect to find out that Yuna had memorized all the words after one time. Yuna felt bad after seeing his disappointed expression, so she chose to repeatedly read the same storybooks over and over.

Yuna’s parents made the decision to hire a tutor after learning about their daughter’s ability. She was way too smart to go without a teacher. It became obvious that their daughter would become someone important in the future.
As the years went by, her parents began to worry about their daughter. She wasn’t like most children. Most children would spend their time playing and experiencing childhood, but their daughter usually spent her time isolated in the study. On multiple occasions, they would invite other families in hopes that she would make friends with kids her age. To their dismay, Yuna never got along with anybody. She was such a young and talented girl, but she wasn’t so great at socializing. They were worried that she would grow up to be alone.
Yuna was way ahead of her peers at the age of 7. She was so infatuated with chemistry and mathematics, that she spent her weekends solving equations instead of spending time with friends. Her peers began to shun her because of her loner wolf vibe and some of the kids began to make fun of her. Yuna didn’t think too much of it because she had experienced worse. Little kids that bullied her were nothing compared to what Minho did to her.
***************************************
At 22 years old, Yuna graduated college with a PHD in engineering. Over the years, her thirst for knowledge was never quenched and she felt that her time was too short to obtain all the knowledge in the world. There were still too many things she didn’t know and that kept her motivated to continue learning, even after she got her PHD.
She was lucky to be able to obtain so much information in this world. Back in her past life, women were not given the same rights as men. She only had a limited amount of knowledge as an ancient woman, but now she had all the information through the internet. All the things she was curious about, were at the tip of her fingers.
After obtaining her PHD, Yuna decided to start her own engineering company from the ground up. She spent most of her days slaving away at her company and that paid off. Her company became a success, and she became famous for her innovative ideas and products that were out of this world.
Yuna received so much attention from the public that she grew uncomfortable of the fame. There were always people that recognized her wherever she went. She could’ve used that as an opportunity to create connections with people, but instead she chose to isolate herself from everyone. She would ignore everyone regardless of how kind and understanding they were.
Most of these people only wanted to get to know her because of what she had and not because of who she was. Even after all these years, Yuna couldn’t get herself to trust anybody with all her heart, excluding her parents. While most people were busy trying to start a family, she was busy running a company.
Her parents tried to get her to go out on multiple blind dates in hopes of finding a husband for her, but it never worked out. Those poor men left the table dissatisfied and angry every single time. Yuna vowed to never love again and she made sure of it.
************************************************
Yuna became distraught with grief when her parents passed away of old age. Yuna couldn’t understand how both of them could go together. After her mother died, her father followed soon after. She had read about this peculiar cause of death called the broken heart syndrome; also known as Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy. It’s known to be similar to a heart attack, but it’s caused by the emotional stress of losing someone important. Her father passed away from takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
The passing of her parents was extremely harsh on Yuna, that caused her to isolate herself even more into her work than normal. All those years were spent on knowledge and discoveries, but none of that seemed to matter. She had no one to spend the rest of her life with. Her parents were gone and all she had left was the company she built up.
She was extremely rich and successful, but she had no one to inherit her wealth. The only thing she was left with was regret. She let Minho and Haemi get the best of her even in this life. She could’ve chosen to move on and meet new people, but she failed miserably. All she had left was her success and no one to share it with.
Towards the end of her life, she concluded that she would never live her life thinking about Minho ever again. Just because he ruined her first life, doesn’t mean she should let him ruin all her other lives. Her past lifetime no longer bothered her. Those two evil people will long be specks of dust in the vast universe. She didn't need to seek revenge, nor did she have to waste her energy thinking about them. Life was forever to her and one insignificant lifetime meant nothing to her.
She decided long ago that the past was meant to stay in the past. She only regretted that towards the end of her life, she didn't have a single person to share her happiness and success with. She will have another chance in the next lifetime. She closed her eyes and let out her last breath.
