Thirty One
One and OnlyIt felt like a dream to be sharing a kiss with the man that I love. The kiss seemed to be a sign that good things are beginning to happen to me. With a grin on my face, I fluttered my eyes opened. But the sight of an empty space next to me brought my cloud nine mood all the way to hell. Hurriedly, I sat up and looked around the room in panic. There is no trace of Sehun oppa, and the clothes that were discarded on the ground last night were not there anymore. Was last night just a dream? But the soreness in between my legs told me that everything was real. Pushing the crumpled duvet aside, I rushed out of the room and called for Sehun oppa.
I hate being abandoned. I hate being alone. I hate being the second alternative.
I felt the warmth in my eyes as my tears threatened to drop. Where the hell is Sehun oppa?
Just when I ran back to the room to look for my phone, I heard giggles and laughter traveling from the living room. As fast as my legs could carry me, I ran out of my room to be greeted by the scene of Sera being piggybacked by Sehun oppa.
"Eomma!" Sera called for me cheerfully.
I looked at Sehun oppa and he smiled at me. He didn't abandon me. He didn't break his promise.
"Sera woke up early and I didn't want her to disturb you, so I brought her out to get breakfast."
Immediately after Sehun let Sera get off her back, I ran towards and wrapped my arms around his body. Sehun oppa chuckled a little before rubbing my back his hands.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
I didn't answer as I only want to hear his calming heartbeat right now. If time could stop, I wish it would stop right now, where I am in Sehun oppa's embrace comfortably.
Joohyun's POV
"Come on, let's go for a walk at the park!"
I narrowed my eyes at the enthusiastic kid in front of me. Baekhyun has always been a really optimistic child and I really admire that side of him. But these few days of bugging really got on my nerves. Baekhyun came to fetch me when I was discharged from the hospital and of course, he came with the intention to persuade me to go for a walk with him.
"Baekhyun, why are you doing all these?" I asked as I sat on my bed.
Baekhyun placed my belongings down and took a seat next to me, "I just want you to move on. It's not possible for him to come back to you."
I turned my head away from the younger guy, refusing to hear what I hated the most. Life is so unfair, why do I have to sacrifice my happiness when I am the victim?
"I know you felt betrayed and unfair, but noona," Baekhyun slid his warm hand into mine, "You will feel better if you let it go and move on from your past relationship."
His words are right but I can't seem to absorb whatever he said. All I know is Sehun is the only one I want and need in my life. If there is no Sera and Jinri in the picture, nothing will change between Sehun and me. But will I be able to get over my conscience and do I have the heart to get rid of my own sister and my niece? Am I heartless enough to do that just so that Sehun will come back to me?
"Noona, alright?"
"Baekhyun, I want to be alone right now, please."
I saw how his shoulder deflated and he had a dejected expression hung on his face, he stood up and bid goodbye before leaving me alone in my room. I shut my eyes and let a tear escaped my eye again.
"Don't drop any tears for me anymore, I am really not worth it."
Sehun's words came back to me like a flash again. I am sorry Sehun, it's really hard to not do that and let you go...
Jinri's POV
"Eonni!!"
I looked up from my drink and waved to my younger sister excitedly. She jogged towards me and lunged forward for a hug. What a baby, I chuckled.
"Eonni, I miss you! It has been two months since I have seen you! How was your holiday?"
"It was good," A smile can't help to grow on my face as I recalled all the happiness I felt and all the blissful moments I had, especially that night with Sehun oppa. Even though he did not say it explicitly that he loves me, I am still grateful that he treats me as someone special now. The lit of hope in me won't diminish anytime soon as I strongly believe that one day Sehun oppa will love me like the way I do.
"Seems like you enjoyed a lot," Soojung raised her brow with a cheeky smile glued on her face, "Tell me, did something good happen between you and Sehun oppa?"
"What good things?" I avoided her gaze and drank my iced americano, "You are reading too much into it."
"Ayeee, I am sure you and Sehun oppa have progressed a lot!"
My younger sister cheered ecstatically. I don't get her reaction? I mean, Jongin is the sweetest man on Earth and my sister is really blessed to have this man loving her, she doens't have to get all excited over my boring love story when hers is a real life fairy tale/
"Are you and Jongin getting married any soon?"
"Don't even mention that prick," my sister's mood got from 100 to 0 within a blink of an eye, "He had been busy preparing his finals that he hardly finds time for me. It annoys me eonni, if I ever caught Kim Jongin cheating behind my back with another woman, I am going to castrate him."
A sign of disbelief was my reaction towards her over thinking. Jongin cheating behind Soojung's back? That's by far the most ridiculous thing I have heard! Even if the sun dies and the water dries up, Jongin will neve
