Chap 35

Because She is Eomma

2 years later, 

2yrs has passed and the Kim family living in peace and graceful. Yerin now are currently working at the restaurant the place where her mother used to worked before 

After she got her final exam result, she's starts works because she don't want her mother to make an heavy jobs anymore. Making two jobs in a day are not as easy it look, so she just ask her mother to quit from her jobs as a dishwasher at that restaurant and she's replacing her mother but as a waiters since she's young and pretty, that owner took an advantage on that 

It's not like Yerin mind about it. She's in fact are happy that the owner who which also her mother friend willing to took her as a workers. She can leaen about how to run a business 

Since her result for that exam are not really cool for her to continue her study at university or any college she just decide to help her mother in raising her other four sisters who are still in growing up time

It's not like Yerin don't like doing it. Seeing how her other sisters growing up in front of her eyes with her and their mother hardworking is worthy. Now she know why her mother never once sighing whenever she's come home after tired working out all of her energy everyday. It make she felt satisfied by her own effort 

She's admit that the deepest in her heart that she do felt regret and sad because not study more hard to got an excellent result in her exam but what can she do, it's all fate. Maybe God has arranged something else for her in future, something more good. Who know

"Unnie, why did this bicycle didn't move?" Umji who are already 5yrs old asking with her cute way when the bicycle that she ride are not moving 

"Huh? Wait. Yah SinB! Did you hold her bicycle just now? That's why it didnt move" Yuju scold SinB

"What? No I'm not" SinB lied

"Stay away from her bicycle now" Yuju command and SinB just step back with pout

"Ok Umji, now try you step on the pedal"

"Okie!" Umji said excitedly and step on the pedal but again, her bicycle didn't move

"Why Umji?" Yuju ask from behind Umji bicycle 

"It's still didn't mov- Unnie!!" Umji whining when she saw Yuju held her bicycle from back like SinB did just now 

Umji crossing her cute and chubby arms above her chest and pouting in sulking way. Make her two older sisters squealing seeing her cute action

"Yah! Yuju, SinB! I ask you to teach her how to ride that bicycle not to till make she's sulking!" Yerin who just watching her lil sisters from the bench at their small garden

Yuju and SinB are currently teaching Umji how to ride the bicycle that Yerin just bought for Umji. Instead of teaching the youngest, they're keep on teasing her 

After heard their eldest sister shout, both Yuju and SinB hurriedly lead Umji how to ride the bicycle properly

"You're too strict on them Yerin ah" Sowon who joined Yerin watching them said 

"Let it be eomma. They're being so mean toward our baby maknae"

"It's not like you're too kind for Umji. If I'm not mistake, you're telling Umji that there's a ghost under her study table this morning. And because of that, I'm having an hard time to persuade Umji to stop crying whenever she pass by her study table in her room" Sowon give her eldest daughter stern eyes make the latter grinning and grab a biscuit from the plate on the table and eat it slowly

Today is weekend so Yerin and Sowon are not working. They use this time to spend time together with their family members but too bad that Eunha couldn't join them since she has an extra class

"What can we do eomma. Umji is just too cute for us to hold ourselves from teasing her"

"Then don't angry Yuju or SinB for teasing her then. You're just the same as them"

"Ok, ok. Uhm eomma, I think I want to start a small business with Jimin. And my savings are already enough for us to start our own business" Yerin said in serious tone

"What kind of business you're planning to do?"

"We're planning to sell western food, but since our capital are not too big so we decide to just start with small stall at roadside"

"Hurm, nice idea Yerin ah. You and Jimin has been a good friend for long time already and he's a trusted guy. Just do it dear,eomma will always here for supporting you" Yerin nodding her head to her mother words 

Just like her, Jimin result also didn't really great so both of them can't continue their study. But they did a promise to open their own restaurant one day

So they did many kind of jobs to collecting the capital. Working at car wash centre, restaurant, bartender, all of that Jimin did. He still didn't let out his real feeling toward Yerin and he was planning to tell her once he has his own money and can support his life. So everything he did are only for Yerin and their promise

Still watching her three daughters antic in the garden, suddenly Sowon feel someone was massaging her shoulder softly

"You're home Eunha?" Sowon ask without look back

"Yes eomma. And I'm so damn tired" Eunha said with tired voice and yet she still massaging her mother shoulder make all Sowon bone relaxing

"Yah! What about me? I'm also tired working out with my energy" Yerin scold Eunha make the second sister rolled her eyes then walk behind Yerin before starts massaging her shoulder just like the way she did to her mother

"One dollar for one minute" Eunha said 

"What? Yah, why did eomma never pay you before?"

"That because I love eomma"

"You don't love me? I'm your sister"

"So what? You want a massage for free?" 

"Yes, free of charge"

"Ok, if you want the free one" Eunha said then elbowing Yerin nape hardly make Yerin flinch

"Yah! It's hurt stupid!" Yerin punch Eunha leg

"Ouch! Eomma! Look at unnie!" Eunha whining at her mother 

"She did it first eomma. Not me. Yah you! Come here" Yerin was about to pull Eunha arm but Eunha run away for hiding behind her mother first and when Yerin want to follow her, Sowon stop her daughters first by pulling Yerin ears

"You're 20 already and yet still act like a small kid"

"Ouch! Eomma it's hurt eomma.. Ow, ow, ow" Yerin jumps a bit when Sowon twist her ears 

"Yea! Pull her ears eomma! Pull! Ow, ow, ow, eomma. It's hurt" Eunha who are was laughing seeing how her mother pull Yerin ear just now also wince in pain when Sowon did pull her ear too 

"And you also, you guys are the eldest sisters.You should show a nice example for your sisters not bickering like a small kids" Sowon nagging and still didn't pull away her hand from her poor daughters ears

Not long after that, their head turn toward Umji when they heard the youngest sister are crying loudly

"Yuju! SinB! Why Umji crying!" Yerin and Eunha shout in unison and hurriedly heading to Umji who are now sitting on the grass

Sowon just sit and see what will happen next. She don't want to interrupt their daughters bonding. She just watch them while smiling, she knew that Umji are just pretend crying to grab her other sisters attention 

"Yuju unnie did! SinB did!" Yuju and SinB pointing at each other when they saw how angry their sisters look

Without saying a words,Yerin and Eunha are just hitting Yuju and SinB but not too hard, just small patting on their

"Unnie,stop it, it's not our fault. Umji fell by her own" SinB said while try to escape from Yerin strong grip on her arm but fail 

"Ahhh! I don't want to hear any excuses. All we know is you guys make Umji crying" Yerin said and continue hitting SinB

"Catch me if you can unnie... Let see if you can caught me with your short legs" Yuju sticking out her tongue at Eunha while her older sister running after her

"Yah! Stop right now! Or else I'll not teach you how to do Math anymore" Eunha threat make Yuju stop and give her disbelief look

"You can't mix Math problem in here"

"Of course I can. I maybe short but my thinking ability are tall" Eunha took an advantage while Yuju stop running to threw a few slow punch on Yuju arms 

While they're busy with their "wrestling" session suddenly Umji laugh make them stop. All head are focus on Umji who are clapping her hands happily when she saw her Yuju and SinB unnie got hit because of her

"Oh so you're just acting crying just now. So that me and Yuju unnie got hit?" SinB ask while her unsatisfied face 

"Yah SinB! What are we waiting for? Caught that smol monster!" Yuju shout and hearing that cue, Umji immediately get up and run toward her mother but fell on the grass

She gave her want to cry face to her sisters make their anger awhile ago gone. And when she finally jss get up from her position she's sticking out her tongue then shout 

"Unnies are ugly!" Then shes running again and this time she managed till her mother arms

"She said you ugly Eunha unnie" Yuju said while laughing 

"No, she said it to Yerin unnie" Eunha said

"Hey! She's talking about SinB and Yuju, she said unnies. That mean that person must be more than one" Yerin said 

"Gosh unnie! She's talking about us! She said we're ugly!" SinB words hitting their realization 

"Umji!" They're shouting in unison 

"You has make them angry baby" Sowon said while chuckle

"But they'll not be angry for too long rught?" Umji said cutely

"How can you be so sure?"

"Because I'm a baby" Umji said and what she said are true, no matter how angry her sisters toward her is. They never be mad at Umji, who didn't love the maknae. That's what Umji thought

Sowon just smile hearing that. She was thinking to herself, will she be this satisfied in life if Namjoon didn't die? Will she be this happy after getting back all her daughters into her arms if she accept Seokjin propose 2yrs ago? Nobody know the answer and Sowon didn't even wanna know the answer, she just want to fill her old day with her daughters 

 

 

 

 

*Flashback*

Sowon and Seokjin are having lunch together at the cafe across to Seokjin office. Sowon at first declined Seokjin offers but thinking that Seokjin are always help her whenever she's in hardness, she accepted it at the end 

She thought that it just a simple and normal lunch but no. It's all starts getting to nervous and uneasy feeling when Sowon saw Seokjin took out the small red velvet box from his pocket 

She don't have to ask Seokjin what's the fills of that box since she's know that box really well. Her assumption are true when Seokjin open the lid of that red velvet box and it revealed a shining bright diamond ring 

"Seokjin ah-"

"Wait Sowon, before you say something. I want to say it first"

"Ok" Seokjin inhale very deeply before starts talking 

"Sowon ah, I've kept this ring even before you and Namjoon be a lover. Due to my cowardness, I fail giving this to you and Namjoon make a move first before me. And today, I represent this ring to you and I'll telling about all my feeling toward you" Seokjin stop talking and take a very deep breath again

"Sowon ah, I actually has fallen in love with you since our childhood time but you never notice it since all you can saw that time are only Namjoon. I lose with Namjoon in grabbing your attention during our childhood, I lose with Namjoon in making you as my girlfriend and I lose with Namjoon making you as a queen of this heart. I maybe seems like more successful if been compared with our career but when it come about you, I never win. So here I am today to asking you for giving me a winning after being so many time in loses. I love you Sowon ah, I really hope that you can give me a chance to make you feel how grateful I am with that wins" Seokjin said and Sowon just look at Seokjin with small smile 

"I'm sorry Seokjin, but I can't accept you" Sowon said in guilty tone,guilty for rejecting her own best friend who are also used to be her close friend before 

"Because you still love Namjoon right?" Seokjin said while laugh bitterly 

"No Seokjin, my love for him already being buried with his body. I've returned his heart that I held for him on the first day, he raise his hand on me. So if you're thinking that I'm rejecting you because of him, you're wrong"

"Then why did rejected me? Did my propose are too normal and didn't romantic?"

"It's not about your propose Seokjin ah, it's about me who can't and didn't want to accept anyone else in my life. My daughters are my life, my soul and my world. They're my everything since the first day they were born in this world. My previous marriage make me learn something about life. Happiness only come after the hardness and I did felt that happiness now, and I'm not ready to face another hardness to felt that happiness again. I hope you understand. You deserve someone better for you and that person are obviously not me. I've set up in my mind that my life, soul and world are only for my daughters. Not for anyone else. You're kind Seokjin, I'm sure you'll find someone better for you. Thank you for everything you did to help my family Seokjin ah, only God can reply all your kindness. You're a good friend for me Seokjin and always will be in that way" Sowon said and Seokjin just let out sad smile and nodding his head 

"Alright, I get it. It's fine, at least I told you about my feeling already" Sowon just smile and close back that ring box lid then shoved it to Seokjin direction 

"Give this to the right person" and with that Sowon get up and walk away 

*End of Flashback*

"I still can't find that right person Sowon ah, it always has to be you. Forever you" Seokjin said while leaning onto the window while looking at of his room 

He accept it when Sowon rejected him, he accept it when Sowon want to just feel the happiness with her daughters, he accept it when Sowon still dragging him into a friendship zone, but he can't accept it when he still lose to Namjoon even after he has died

"You're still the winner Namjoon ah. And I'm always be in second after you. Second place, that's my place in everything that Sowon got involve" Seokjin said while looking up to the sky, a tears come out from the corner of his eyes without he know it

Chapter 37: WAHHHHHH! You really the best author. I am your fan since you wrote about sinju story *im a sinju squad. And that day i was looking for new story and i saw this story. But, i was like 'ahhhh, just a story about family, not a drama or maybe romance story' and i decided to NOT TO READ this story. I think that, this kind of story would be less liked by a reader like me. Then i just read this foreword of this story and i left to find another story. And last night was so bored and decided to read a new update story *your (i love u, do u love me too) and (3 years without love, with happiness) but i saw this story of yours again since youre not updated your current story. So i read your story last night. I WAS REGRETTED WHEN I DECIDED NOT TO READ THIS STORY OF YOURS WHEN YOU PUBLISHED IT. It was really amazing and now i think youre the best author that i adore a lot. Just give you any genre, you succeed in making the whole story interestingg. Thank you author-nim for making a good story. All of your story, i managed to understand the plots a lot. Your english is understandable for me because i think we are from the same country *im Malaysian. Ang i think others also can understand understand what youre writing. And please make more story and dont forget to update. As a buddy, sinju squad and your loyal fan... I hope you can make more story and take care of yourself well . Annyeong ♥~
