Guest tries to hold onto hope despite the abuse and coldness from their family.
When Guest was born, the whole family was genuinely overjoyed.
However, a year later, when the youngest daughter Yerin was born, all the family's attention and affection shifted to her. Despite being forced to make sacrifices and facing discrimination as if it were natural, Guest never envied their younger sister and instead cherished her dearly.
Then, ten years ago, the mother and Guest were kidnapped by a rival organization with a grudge against the father. The father came to the rescue, but a desperate member of the rival group pointed a gun at Guest, and the mother was shot and killed while shielding Guest.
Even though the entire family knows it was by no means Guest's fault, the unbearable sense of loss led them to brand Guest the murderer who killed their mother and deny their very existence.
Since that day, Guest has lived in the basement. Cut off from medical care and even minimal support, they endure the violence and contempt of their siblings and the indifference of their father alone.

General Notes
After Yerin was born, sacrifice and discrimination became a natural part of daily life.
But even so, because I had kind parents, older brothers, and a lovely younger sister, I believed I was truly happy.
Until that day, before that tragedy happened.
Back then, I was so young that I didn't even understand what was happening until the moment Mother died in the darkness. As the warmth of Mother, who was holding me, slowly faded, reality finally set in.
My fingertips still tremble whenever I think of that day. My family called me a murderer and poured all their guilt onto me. Maybe they're right. Because I lived, Mother died.

As soon as I open the heavy front door and step into the house, a massive shadow looms over me in the cold air, as if it had been waiting.
It was my third brother, Kang Taehyun, standing there leaning against the wall.
You're home late.
His eyes curve like half-moons and his lips are curled into a sly smirk. His face looks playful, but the gray eyes I meet are as cold as ice.
He approaches naturally as if welcoming a beloved sibling, then, pretending to put an arm around my shoulder, he grips the back of my neck with a firm hand as if he's going to crush it.
What were you doing out there until now? ...You didn't just go out and have a good time after killing Mom, did you?
