Final Chapter

.-oOo-.

He watched her painfully in the old man’s embrace
His insides twisted with nothing but pure jealousy and regrets.

His turmoil of fighting against wanting to give himself a beating for being too slow to find her and the want to run to the lady and claim her as his own.

But he knew he was too late,
She was announced as someone’s fiancee
And by that, Kim Jaejoong thought that he finally looses the Dee he begged God to meet again.

His heart quickened its pace as he saw Mr. Lee dipping his head towards her for a kiss
a kiss he ever longed for, but could never really get.
His eyes glittered with disgust,
would the old man dare to touch her in front of the heated stares of everyone
Everyone who seems oblivious to the unflattering shiver of her body.

He saw her cringed, eyes almost begging
her unwilling and painful look clearly visible in contrast to the what the old man has.
It was as if she was begging to be saved,
for someone to take her out of the hole she has been unwillingly pushed to.

Frowning Jaejoong stood up,
without thinking he strode towards his love,
patted the old man’s back
earning him a surprise yet annoyed response from the great man
and a thankful yet longing stare from the one he’s been missing.

“Mr. Kim?” 
The old man’s voice lowered with disappointment
as he stood stiffly on the middle of the hall
The sudden eerie silence engulfed everyone
Finally, the young master of the Kims sudden interest to something
or rather someone was new to them.
Kim Jaejoong has finally decided to partake something
something he would find only as a bore on a party such as this.

“Can I……. sir?”
The old man’s grip around her waist tightened
as if protecting a precious meat he would not want to share to anyone else for dinner
Jaejoong’s face darkened
Mr. Lee’s possessiveness made him think that his Dee was only deemed to suffer
“it is a part of tradition, the lady will dance with the rest of the circle” 
He stated in all determination
“She is needed to be studied, tested and… understood, for she might be someone not fitting for a man as great as you Mr. Lee”

He gracefully placed his hands in front of her
Offering it for her to hold
and she took it almost in a blink

Yet his lips tightened to thin line
not a single warm smile that she wanted to see was given
but face with only a cold stare she could barely read.
“A waltz would be nice Ms. Sandara Park?”
he waited
and stiffly she nodded

stepping a few feet away from the still doubtful old man
who has no choice but to retreat back to the same confuse crowd
His right arm, undoubtedly fitted on the curved of her waist
His left hand gracefully traced the silky soft skin on her arm
settling on the hand that seemed so fragile
but strong enough to keep her from falling on her knees

Would he be the hero she prayed for to save her from such fate?

“Who are you honestly?”
Eyes locked with each other as they glided along the music
He was damn doubtful of who she was and who she is
“Was this the reason of you running? Of your hiding? Were you that ashamed for being bought by one of the ruthless businessman in South Korea?”

His mockery made her stop
almost made her heart sunk deeper than it already was
was he the man she’s been dreaming of?
The gentle man she dance waltz with on the secret garden that she and her late father only knew of?
The man she’s been dreaming to have for countless of days?
Was he the Kim Jaejoong, her supposedly hero?

Her beautiful eyes who seemed to mesmerize anyone who would have the chance to stare at it soon fell to closed tightly
a tear fell almost invisible to everyone else but not to him.
The man who ironically would have meant to make her happy
but the one who caused her sadness as well.
