A/N: This chapter will contain a twist, just a heads up. Nothing detailed and gross.

Angela sat, embarrassed, in her lonely home on her bed, tears streaming steadily down her soft face.

"I-I can't believe that... I just totally freaked out in front of him... and that.... bitch... Had to soil my only day clothes...." She cried. Her friendship with Anissa had instantly disappeared as fast as it had come. Anissa had no right to charge Angela with some 'newcomer's fee'. There was no such thing, and in Angela's opinion, the Mayor should have given her some kind of punishment.

When she decided to stand up, she felt a little light-headed and decided to call it a day early. Even though it was only three in the afternoon, it almost felt like ten at night. She slipped off her day outfit, and put on some nice comfortable flannel pajamas.

"So tired..." She laid down on the soft cotton sheets and her eyes slowly closed shut.

...........

"Angela, where are those crops!!!!"

"I'm getting them father, I am. I'm sick... I need to blow my nose first."

"Blow your sorry little nose later. Just go ship them already!!!"

"I AM!!"

"Did you just yell at me young lady?"

"Sorry father...."

"I ought to send you back to your mother's house."

"I think that would be nice...."

"Well you ain't got 'nuttin' nice here. You better get used to it cause your mother told me to keep you here for the rest of your-"

............

There was a nearly inaudible knock on the door. Angela's eyes fluttered open and she ripped her covers off of her. She was mortified to find out that she had woken up in a cold sweat. She took a quick glimpse at her clock and noticed that it was only eight o'clock. Now she was wishing she hadn't fallen asleep so early.

Angela didn't respond right away to the knock, but she got up. When she opened the door, she saw Jin smiling with his hands behind his back.

"Hi...." Said Angela. Her voice was deep and raspy due to her being in a deep sleep.

"Hey! I got you something." He said. She curiously watched as he pulled his hands out from behind his back. What Angela saw made her mood change instantly.

"Oh...My... gosh... How did you get this???" She demanded. He had brought her a silkworm.

"Well the rocks blocking Brownie Ranch disappeared and I decided to get you a little something... considering you weren't feeling too well earlier today." He blushed and carefully handed the little creature over to her. She was overjoyed.

She held onto it with utmost care. It was the nicest thing that anyone had gotten her. None of her family would have even considered the thought of giving her her very own pet. Or any big ticket item for that matter.

"Jin...I...I-" He put a finger on her lips to keep her quiet. She wanted to thank him with all of her heart, for she was starting to feel a little guilty that he had gone out of his way to spend a couple of thousand gold on her.

"No need to say a thing. It's a gift." He closed his eyes and smiled. "I hope you take good care of it."

Angela nodded. "Of course! But...." She looked down and frowned.

"W-what??" He stammered in disbelief. Had she refused his gift?

"Um.... I don't exactly have any chicken feed for it to eat." She admitted, shrugging.

Jin grinned. "Oh yes you do."

"How... much did you get?" She asked, suddenly wide eyed and awake.

"A few week's worth."

"J-Jin... I really do appreciate this!" While holding onto the little worm, she hugged him tight for a few seconds then let go. "Want some tea? I don't have any more blue herb tea.... but I've got plenty of green ones."

"No problem. And sure, that sounds really nice."

Angela bowed. She quickly placed the worm in the coop and gave it some food before returning. Jin took a seat in a chair at the table as Angela took out some herbs and put them in a pot with water.

"Try not to burn yourself again." He warned jokingly.

"I won't."

Jin played around with his hair during the few minutes of silence. "Oh! If you don't mind me asking, what happened with you and Anissa earlier? It looked really bad."

Angela blinked. She didn't really feel like reliving the experience. "Um... Well... I'm not sure I should say..."

"Keeping secrets is an unhealthy habit."

Angela nervously giggled. "Okay." She took a seat and sat next to him while the pot boiled. "Alright.." She inhaled. "She tried to charge me double for blue herb seeds. Then I got mad and raised my voice. Then she called me a.... bitch... Then I punched her, she kicked me, then last I tried to give her the juice for forgiveness, but she refused and... yeah... I'm kind of scared that she'll try to pull something else if we see each other again..." She trailed off, unsure of what to say next.

Jin shook his head. "Don't worry, I'll make sure that nothing happens." He assured, looking serious.

"It's fine if she does.... I mean, she is your girlfriend after all." Angela assured, trying not to interfere too much with his life.

He shook his head again. "Not any more."

Angela's eyes widened. "Jin-"

"Think nothing of it. I couldn't marry someone that would do such a thing. I mean she's nice and all... but I just can't accept the fact that she hurt you." He said, almost like he was hurting inside.

"Only if you're entirely sure..... Ready for tea?"

Jin nodded, a smile quickly replacing his frown.

Angela got up and poured the tea into the bright pink cups and carefully carried them over to the table. "Is it okay unsweetened? I don't have any sugar still...."

"That's okay. I prefer unsweetened tea anyway." He lied. He thought that unsweetened tea was just a bit too strong, but he would never turn down anything from Angela.

They sipped at the same time and smiled at each other. It was then that Angela walked around to Jin's side of the table and sat next to him again. She started to lean against him, her head in his shoulder. He leaned his head on hers, and they stayed like that for a good few minutes until they finished their tea. They then got off of each other and looked at each other.

Angela had never really had the chance to look into the doctor's beautiful lavender eyes. They seemed to be trapped behind those circular glasses of his, just waiting to be set free. She made a risky advance on him by placing her hands under his ears on the side of his head and slowly took them off, putting them on the table. Jin didn't seem to reject. He then placed his hands around her waist, and they pulled each other closer until their heads were only an inch apart.....

Ding Dong!!!

"SO CLOSE!!" Angela mentally slapped herself. She was so close to kissing the man of her dreams.

The two quickly split apart. Angela caught her breath and answered the door, only finding herself face to face with none other than Gill, the mayor's son. She rolled her eyes. He was like the village snob, always stuck up.

"Can I help you?" She asked, trying best to act and sound polite.

"Yes, in fact." He said, a creepy smile plastered on his face. "My father wanted to talk to him." He pointed at Jin.

"At nine o'clock at night?!" He shouted in disbelief as he joined the situation.

"Yes. At the tree in the square. He wants you there immediately, so don't be late." Said Gill while looking at his nails.

Jin gave a quick hug to Angela before he headed off to the square. He wasn't sure why, but he had a bad feeling in his gut about Gill. Ever since he had come to the island, he hadn't felt anything good about the blond haired boy. He was only a year older than Angela.

Gill looked back over to Angela when he had left Caramel River district on foot. He started walking toward her slowly, trying to back her into her house. "Little Angie, we need to have a chat."

Angela looked up at him. His eyes had an evil tint to them. "Y-yes?"

"And about our chat? You want to know what happens if you tell anyone about it?"

She gulped. "W-what?" She had the worst feeling she had ever felt.

"If you tell anyone what I'm about to do, I'll tell my father that you and Jin are dating..... and he'll get fired and you'll get sent off of the island!!" He shouted and laughed.

"Well I'm s-sure we can have out conversation out in the o-open..." She assured, trying her best to back off the man.

"No Angela." He pointed inside.

____________________

Jin waited by the tree for what felt like hours. He was worried about Angela for some odd reason. It just didn't seem right that Gill had come so late in the night. After about one hour to be exact, he decided to walk to Angela's house and tell her good night before he drove home. When he got to her house, something didn't seem right. He had a sinking feeling in his heart, and he was about to find out why....

He shoved open the door and his eyes widened. He saw a frightened Angela shivering under the covers on her bed.... And it appeared that she wasn't wearing any clothes.

"Angela!!!" He ran over to her. She pulled the covers tighter around her.

"J-just go!!!" She shouted, afraid of what else could have happened to her.

"What happened?!"

"GO!!"

"I will not!!! I fear your safety!!" He examined the situation. His eyes quickly widened even more; they were the size of dinner plates. "A-Angela.. were you-"

"YES!!" She hissed.

"You need to come over to the clinic now." He demanded. She shook her head.

"NO ONE MUST KNOW!!!" She screamed. He grabbed her hand and tried to calm her down.

"Angela... I won't tell anyone. But I need to screen you to make sure you're okay..." He tried giving her a light back rub to help.

Her shaking settled down. "J-Jin.....Gill.... he raped me..." She trailed off.

"Are you serious?!?! That little bastard. We must let the Mayor know!! We must-"

"No!!! If you do, you'll be out a job.... and I'll be sent back home..."

"Where are your clothes?" He asked, desperately wanting to get her to the clinic as soon as possible. He looked and saw them in the corner by her toolbox. "Put these on." Angela quickly pulled on her pj's and allowed Jin to carry her away to his car, where he then took her to Meringue Clinic.

Meringue Clinic....

Jin placed Angela on the examination table.

"Wh-what kind of tests do you have to do?" Angela asked.

"I have to make sure that your heart rate is okay, and things like... say a regular check up. But first I have to ask some personal questions, please don't kill me, this is to help and is for strictly medical research."

Angela nodded. "Okay..."

"First question. Have you ever in your life had sex before?"

She blushed. "No."

"Second question. Have you ever had a history of hereditary diseases?"

"Not that I know of..."

"Last question... I understand that you've had a history of injuring yourself." He said, referring to the numerous times she had hurt herself in the three days.

"Yeah..."

"Did you get any scratches or bruises that you know of?"

Angela shook her head. "He just kind of pushed me in and... yeah..." She closed her eyes tight.

"Don't worry Angela....... do you think you'd feel safer if you slept over at my house? You could have the couch if you'd like." He offered.

Angela thought the idea was a bit awkward. "Uh....only if I feed my silkworm some extra food... but yes... that would be nice..."
