Chapter Two

Rules of Engagement

While the hug lasted Jinri kept on thinking in how would she ever look at another man like she looked at her ex-boyfriend. Well, she couldn't exactly call him ex-boyfriend because the break up was never official but she thought she was pretty clear when she threw the cake at them and even ignored every single try from Jongin's to reach out to her. Soojung finally broke up the hug tugging her older sister towards the bar once again. " I gotta have a few drinks from this side before I jump to the other. " and Jinri laughed " I would cheer to that! " making Soojung order two martinis for them " Such a young lady drinking such powerful drink? " a deep yet subtle voice merged behind the counter leaving Soojung speechless. There was this handsome male with chocolate brown hair, deep dark eyes and dark skin with both of his' strong arms resting against it. His head was slightly tilted to the side wearing a gentle smile across his lips. Soojung got mesmerized by the sight making Jinri somehow confused, her sister was usually very flirty how come she wouldn't say even a word? " It's okay. I know how to control her. " Jinri spoke gently nudging her sister making shake her head slightly " Uh? What? Oh yeah! She.. uhm.. She's watching over me" Soojung was very nervous and she wasn't like that at all but the first sight of that man made her heart shake and her mind go blank " Well, two martini's it is then. " the male smiled as he turned around to prepare the drinks. Soojung looked over to Jinri with her lips pursed making her sister whisper a chuckle " He's handsome, uh? " Jinri spoke making Soojung's cheek gain a deep colour of red at the same time as she covers her face with her hands. " The drinks are.. something wrong, Miss? " the bartender spoke making Soojung freeze in that position leaning her head against Jinri's shoulder " Oh it's just an headache! She isn't used at being in the middle of the sea ! " Jinri spoke while caressing her blushing sister's head. The bartender couldn't help but smile "  I hope you enjoy your drinks, ladies! " he bowed his head before turning his focus on the other clients. Soojung rised her head slightly to make sure that the coast is clear and Jinri couldn't help but smile at her sister's cuteness " Aigoo, Soo. You're so cute when you're shy! " Jinri said while squishing her baby sister's cheeks " I.. I'm not shy! " Soojung finally said while holding her sister's hands " He's very handsome, uh? " she once again asks making Soojung take a quick peak at the man before nodding slightly " Very actually. But the drinks are here so let's toast! " she chuckled while giving one glass to Jinri while holding the other herself " Hm.. Let's give a toast in honor of Grandma's memory and hm... " Jinri said while thinking of what to word out next " And to a new life! " Soojung completed while raising her arm making Jinri smile while raising her hand as well.

They both drank the martini and paid for it before heading towards their bedroom. They were both placed in different bedrooms but they were exactly next to one another. Jinri was about to enter her bedroom when she noticed that the door was already open so she just froze. " Sulli, is everything okay? " Soojung asked when she noticed her big sister not stepping inside her bedroom " The door is open. I clearly remember of locking it. " Jinri whispered while stepping inside of her bedroom noticing a tall male placing clothes inside the closet " Jongin? " Jinri called out horrified at the scene " Hey, babe. You were going to start the trip without me? " Jongin said while walking towards his girlfriend, or not, making Jinri take a step back " I'm not going anywhere with you. What do you think you are doing? " She raged out looking at him in disbelief " Oh c'mon, hon. Why are you being like that? Come and give your future husband a kiss! " Jongin stepped even closer towards Jinri making her completely leave her bedroom. Soojung imediatelly stepped in after recognizing his voice " Future husband, my a ss. No way she's going to marry you. " Soo spoke while standing next to her sister " Shut up, kid. What do you know about relationships? You have never been in one for over a week. " Jongin raged while clunching his fists " I know that no matter what loyalty is key for a relationship and you broke the second you decided to cheat on her! " Soojung yelled while dragging her sister to towards the pool once again making the bartender look at them trying to figure out the situation " Jinri, babe! It was a night thing. I'm sorry. You don't have to be a baby about it? " Jongin said while trying to reach towards her arm before feeling a slap on his hand given by Jinri " Don't touch me. A baby about it? You left me hanging on our aniversary to get laid with another girl! " Jinri yelled at him making Jongin get even more furious " I get it, you're mad. But we'll get over it! I'll give you some time and then we'll talk. " he said after taking a deep breath " Talk? There's nothing to talk! What are you? Stupid? Who gave the idea that I would forgive you? Why did you come? I don't want to see you ever again in my life! " Jinri said trying to contain her tears " C'mon honey! I love you. Do you think anyone else will be able to love you like I do? You can never found a man like me. I'm perfect for you! " Jongin smirked trying to get closer to her " I! Don't! Want! To! See! You! Ever! Again! " Jinri yelled reaching out to Jongin in rage pushing him into the pool. The second he fell on the water everyone was in ow even Jinri herself and it didn't take long for everyone witnissing the situation bursting off into laughter. Jongin came out of the pool with his clothes soaking wet using the expression of a mad man, with his index finger pointed towards Jinri he says " I'll go to another room but you better write this down, Choi Jinri. You're mine. " he says before storming into the dormitory making Jinri almost faint from all the adreneline given by the moment of pure anger, the bartender quickly rushed out of the bar holding Jinri in his arms helping her sit on the chair " That bastard. " Soojung whispered while holding her sister's hand " Don't worry. I won't let him get you. " she completed while sighing. Jinri's eyes were closed and soon enough tears began to fall, the warm sun was laying against her skin but it was quickly shadowed by a male figure kneeling next to the chair. He had light skin, plump lips and a tender gaze on her. Jinri slowly opened her teary and sensitive eyes looking over to the male holding a glass of water " Here, m'lady. It has sugar on it. You look like you need it. " Soojung turned to male but didn't speak out a word at noticing Jinri's weak smile " Thank you for you kindness, sir. " Jinri said holding the glass before drinking the sweet water " I apologize for this scene. " She completed making the male shake his head gently holding her hand leaving a gentle peck on the back of it " Don't mention it, m'lady. If there's anything I could do to help you more I would gladly do it. " His deep voice cut through Jinri is such a subtle way. His warm lips against her pale skin made her feel chills up her spine and without noticing it her cheeks gained a gentle color of pink " I'm Taemin, Lee Taemin. I'm in room 204. I hope to see you again. " He said getting up before surprisingly being stopped by Jinri's shy yet tender voice " I'm Jinri. I'm in room 201. Please, let me see you again. " and with a sweet smile across his lips he exited to the dormitory leaving Jinri with her sister and the bartender.

" What a low move from that man. " the bartender said after Soojung lightly told him the story of what her sister has been through " I'm so sorry. " he said while respectfully caressing Jinri's leg " Ah, do not worry, sir. I'll be alright. " she said while sitting straight hugging her baby sister " Oh. By the way, now that we're here. Soojung, he seems like he'll be your co-worker. Why don't you present yourself? " Jinri suddenly spoke making Soojung gasps at her sister's wild move " M.. Me?! Hum.. J.. Jinri! " Soojung said while looking down shyly. The bartender smiled at his future co-worker cuteness " I'm Minho, Choi Minho. It's a pleasure! " his bubbly smile and he sudden approach for an handshake made Soojung heart skip a thousand beats " I.. I'm Soojung, Choi Soojung and it's also a pleasure... " she spooke shyly while shaking Minho's hand gently making her fall in love just by the simple touch of the skin.

Jinri and Soojung got up as soon as Minho left the spot to finish his work. They both went towards the dormitory. As soon as Jinri arrived to her door she could see the golden number spelling out 2 0 4 and her heart stopped as she remember the gentle man whom offered her the glass of water before shaking her head off from those thoughts after listening to her sister " Want to sleep in my bedroom tonight? " Soojung asked while rubbing her sister's back " Yeah. I think it's for the best. Let me just grab my pajama, alright? I'll get to you! " Jinri said making Soojung nod " I'll wait here, just in case. ". The moment Jinri stepped inside her bedroom she couldn't believe what her eyes where seeing making her gasp in horror " What? What happened? Jinri? " Soojung kept on calling before stepping herself inside the bedroom looking at the all messed up place. Shoes everywhere. Clothes torned apart. Jewelry broken in pieces. And even the frame of Jinri's grandma's picture was broken. Jinri fell to her knees in tears at scene of her belongings completly vandalized " This was Jongin. For sure. " Soojung said while clenching her fists " I hate you, Jongin. I hate you so much. " Jinri mumbled in between her sobbings while holding onto the broken frame of her grandma's photo.
