Chapter 69

3 Years Without Love, With Happiness

Standing in front of the big mirror in his room, Jackson checking his outfit for his date with SinB tonight. Or it just him who think that as a date 

He eyed his red and black short sleeve Polo T-shirt and fixing it collar almost tenth times already. He suit the shirt with simple black jean trousers, he want to wear a black suit but his cousin, Hannah told him to just wear something simple 

Including this, Jackson already lost his count on how many he has being inhale and exhale his loud breath. He was too nervous and afraid if tonight didn't turn out to be like what he imagine 

"Has done checking out yourself body?" Jackson got startled with Hannah sudden voice that come from his behind 

He turn around and found his cousin was leaning at his door room with an amusement smile, there's a glass of water in her hand 

"I couldn't help it? I must look great in front of her" Jackson said and it's only make Hannah laugh since she heard a bit shivers in Jackson voice 

"You're always great Jackson. Except for once, when you saw SinB smiling at you with her cute smile. You're nervous like hell that time" Jackson just chuckle shyly 

"What do you think?" Jackson ask as he's turning completely toward his cousin for her to judging his outfit 

"Perfect, SinB will be say yes" Hannah words just making Jackson cheeks got blush 

"Come on Hann, I'm serious"

"So do I. You looks great, trust me" Hannah said sincerely,  it has been a long time she didn't saw this sight of Jackson. The last time was when that guy was get ready for his date with his late lover 

"I trust you. I'll take my leave now" Jackson said and flashing his warm smile toward his cousin 

"Ok, good luck ok? Make sure that I got a good news once you're home" 

"I wish for that too. Pray for me" Hannah just nodding before patting Jackson shoulder softly. She's sending him a soft smile, hoping that guy will reach his happiness after it has gone from his life for a few years ago 

"Careful on your way, say Hi to SinB" Hannah sending him her wink making that guy chuckle 

"Alright, bye"

"Bye" Hannah just silently watch her cousin sight disappear behind the wooden door of their family mansion with the hope that her cousin will be happy again 

There's a lot of things and sadness that has Jackson shared with her since the death of his lover. Hannah knew it so well about what Jackson felt after his lost, now that SinB has came and she hope that girl is coming with her cousin happiness 

Both of them are a cousin actually but they found it unnecessary for people to know about that, so they decided to just hide it 

 

 

At SinB and Jieqiong hostel, 

Jieqiong is whistling while eyed SinB top to toe when she caught that girl was come out from her room then sitting on the couch across her with her focus on her phone 

"What?" SinB ask as she lift her face up from her phone 

"Nothing, you look gorgouse. Can't wait for go out a date I see" Jieqiong said teasingly make SinB glaring at her 

"It's not funny Jieqiong. We both know that it's not a date" SinB said firmly as her fingers continue typing on the phone 

"Yeah, right. I'm just kidding" Jieqiong rolling her eyes before continue "Who are you texting? Your wife?" Jieqiong ask when she saw SinB sometimes clicking her tongue and frowning while typing her text

"No, my best friend. It has been a few weeks she didn't call or texting me. I've tried call her but she didn't pick up the phone. And now, I've been sending her almost a thousands of messages. Still there's no respond from her. I'm worried about her" SinB said referring to Umji 

"Maybe she's busy?"

"I'm busy too but here I am, still having some free time for texting her and asking for her conditions" SinB said and a little bit of annoy can be sense in her tone 

"Don't you have her family member numbers? Like, her parents of siblings?" Just then SinB remember about Eunha 

"Yea, why did I didn't think about that since earlier? I think I have her older sister number" Jieqiong just shaking her head at her friend antic, just when she was about to returning her attention back on the television, they heard a soft knock sounds come from the door 

"I assume that was Doctor Wang" Jieqiong said

"Yea, I'll be going now" SinB get out from the couch and then putting her phone into her handbag before make her way toward the door 

"Want me to wait for you to go home and tell me about how your date going?" Jieqiong earn a smack at her back head from SinB, she just giggling at her tease 

 

SinB inhaling very deeply for seeking some calm. She twisting the doorknob and once the door is open, Jackson warm and comforting smile was greeting her sight 

"Uhm, hi" Jackson said awkwardly 

"Hi, doctor" SinB also as awkward as him. This is the very first time they'll going out together and of course awkwardness will be appear 

"Uhm, shall we?"

"Ouh, yea" SinB close the door behind her then starts walking with Jackson toward his car 

"Errm, SinB ah"

"Yes?"

"Y-you looks so pretty. I-i mean, you're a-always pretty but tonight is prettier" SinB couldn't help but blush with that simple compliment from Jackson

"Well, thanks and you looks good too doctor" SinB said shyly 

"You don't have to tell me that. I've aware about it tho" Jackson try to lightening the awkward atmosphere with his joke 

"Oh really? Should I take that words back? Seems like you've getting bored hearing it" SinB also joining him in joking way 

"Uhm, I suggest for you to don't. Since it does sounds really different from you, it sounds. Good" SinB just let out her awkward smile, she knew where this night will lead to 

They didn't go to somewhere, just having a dinner at the restaurant that can be classified as a fancy one. SinB didn't deny that she's quite impressed with the restaurant

The dim light was brightening the restaurant, soft and low piano sounds was played in the restaurant. The chairs and table was being arranged for a couple. With two chairs are sitting across to each other. Just like one that she and Jackson has sat

"Do you like the restaurant?" Jackson ask after has been just in silent while eating 

"Yea, you shouldn't bring me to here doctor. It's quite fancy and looks expensive" 

"It's ok, I don't mind spending my money"....."on the person I love" Jackson say and continue in a very low tone, not wanting SinB to hear but he fail. SinB hear it. Very clear 

"Erm, by the way. I think that you want to say something to me right?" SinB clearing while trying to change that topic 

"Ouh, that? Uhm, I'll tell you later. After the dinner" Jackson said and just watching on how SinB nodding her head then continue her eat

Everything that SinB did was seems like so mesmerizing to Jackson. Everything that she did was seems perfect, he like it every move that SinB did. This kind of mesmerizing feelings was finally coming back into his life after his late lover death 

Feeling the stare on her, SinB look out and realm found there's a stares on her. She's calling out for Jackson name but seems like that guy was to into her beauty till he couldn't hear it 

"Doctor Wang!" SinB shout has awaken Jackson from his daze

"Huh? What?" He ask bluntly 

"I've been calling you for a several times already but you didn't hear it. Are you alright doctor? Are you not feeling well? We can go home if you want" 

"Really? Ouh, sorry. I was got distract by your beauty just now. I'm ok now" Jackson said and then notice there's a stain of blush on SinB cheeks

Then he realize that what just he said. He couldn't help but also blush in action. He's scratching his back head in embarrassment 

"Uhm, I mean... Uhm, errm" nothing come out from Jackson mouth 

"It's ok, let's eat again" SinB said and only God know how she wish for this night to be end immediately 

"Wait, there's something on your" Jackson said while motioning on his own corner lip with his finger

"My? What? Lip? Where?" SinB try to wipe her lip with Jackson lead on his lip but it doesn't wipe that sauce stain at all 

"It's the- ouh, it's fine. Come, I'll help you" Jackson lean in closer to SinB face with napkin in his hand 

SinB who got startled with Jackson lean in closer to her, she's move her face a bit backward. Want to creating some distance between them. Her left hand is reaching out for her phone on the table then block Jackson way from comes more closer with her phone 

"Ouh, at there. Ok, done. It's clean now" SinB said quickly as she's mirroring her phone screen for the a look at the stain on her lip 

Jackson can just letting out his sad smile. SinB clearly was avoiding him from wiping that stain from her lip. He's starts feeling uneasy, SinB seems like was giving him an uninterested treatment 

Although he can see how hard SinB try to pretends treating him nicely but he however can sense that SinB wasn't really interesting on him. It's hurt him already even though the thing between them isn't even start yet 

"So, what are you gonna do next? After this practical due has ended?" Jackson starts the conversation 

"Uhm, going back to Korea. Starts working there, treating my wife and daughter nicely. Maybe increasing the number of our child's since my wife said that our daughter is got bored stay at home alone till she has to come with her to office everyday" SinB said with shrug, she's telling the truth but just in nonchalant tone 

"Ok, nice plans" Jackson said before bursting into laughter, thinking that what just SinB said was a silly joke 

"Hey, don't laugh. I'm serious" SinB said in serious tone 

"Oh really? Then let me tell you something. I have a boyfriend and he's currently was carrying our very first child in his stomach" Jackson still didn't buy it what SinB said just now and keeps on laughing 

SinB just look at Jackson who was in his laughter with serious look. She couldn't find the way about how to spill out about her married status and now that when she has found one, Jackson didn't buy it

She's admit that her way was seems like isn't serious but she's also don't know what should she say or starts for telling Jackson about her marriage. She can't just all of sudden saying to Jackson that she's married, that guy will thinking she's as a weird

"Ok, ok. I'm sorry, it just that your joke is so funny" Jackson laughter getting decrease a bit 

"It's not a joke. It's the fact, I can show you my wife and daughter pictures if you want to see it" SinB was about to reaching out for her phone but got stop when Jackson hold both of her hands 

"Hey, it's fine. I'm sorry because of my laughs" Jackson said with soft smile and voice 

His thumbs was caressing SinB back hands softly. Jackson gaze is really soft till nearly make SinB melt just like before but fortunately she's quickly gathering herself a sense 

She's quickly retreat her hands back then put it on her lap then fidgeting it. Jackson is clearing his throat to avoid an awkwardness between them

"Uhm, doctor? Can we go home now? I have something to do at hostel, Jieqiong told me to go home early because she, uhm need me at home" SinB said quickly and reasoning the things out 

"Ouh, really? Ok. Let's go" Jackson said and still maintaining his smile but SinB saw there's a bit of disappointment in those eyes of that guy 

But there's nothing that could she do, she's already had Yuju and even if she want Jackson as her lover. Yuju will still be her first choice. That woman was already sticking at the spot in her heart and she doesn't has a plan on removing her from that spot either 

Silence was filling Jackson car. This night is surely isn't what Jackson want it to be happen. This night was suppose to be the night where he will make SinB as him 

Right after Jackson black Audi stop at the basement of SinB hostel, that girl quickly hold the car door for open it but got stop with Jackson firm grip around her wrist. He doesn't want to come home without any move on that girl 

"D-doc?" SinB starts feeling uneasy with Jackson act

"Uhm, sorry" Jackson realize that he just hurting SinB wrist, so he let it go "Erm, c-can you p-please wait for a minute? I-ive something to tell uhm no. I have something to confess actually" Jackson heart was pounding like hell 

SinB heart is also feeling the same. Her breath becomes as uncontrollable as Jackson, she's already afraid and scare at the moment Jackson said that he has something to confess. How she wish that Yuju was here to pull her away from this situation 

"Uhm, c-cant it wait t-tomorrow?"

"No, it can't be wait" Jackson said in his serious tone 

"D-doctor I think maybe we can talk about it later becau-"

"SinB I like you" Jackson said without waiting for SinB excuses 

SinB eyes was blinking in several times. She can guess it that Jackson will tell her about his feeling toward her but she didn't knew that she'll still get the shock 

"D-doctor. I'm sorr-"

"SinB, please dont try to avoid or giving me an excuse. I like you and this feeling might be also a love. You make me feel it again SinB, you did it. You gave me the same feelings like she gave me before" Jackson and SinB knew that he was referring to his late lover 

All of sudden, Jackson taking SinB hands into him. He hold those hands softly, his thumbs starts caressing SinB soft back hand. His act making that girl slightly melt, this time she didn't try to pull her hands away

Her mind starts drifting to somewhere or you can say imagination. Jackson caressing her back hands really gently and it felt so different from what Yuju did. Jackson caress feel like more comforting 

SinB has starts drown deeply into Jackson eyes who has already drown in her own eyes. If Jackson didn't continue his words, SinB maybe still didn't get out from her drifting mind 

"SinB, I know that I shouldn't say this because it's like I'm breaking the rules. You're practically my student and by telling you I love you so much and want to make you as mine are completely wrong and fault but I don't care about it. All the things that I care right now is you and me" Jackson boldness has starts building when he feel that SinB didn't push or did something that will lead to turning his confess down 

"I love you SinB, since the first time I saw you. I thought that it just an admiring your cute face but I found out that I was wrong. My closed heart has open back and it's welcoming you to be in it SinB, it's open back because of you" Jackson said and SinB can see how hard he's saying those words due to his almost shaking voice but she still keep silent

She just don't know what should she said. Hearing to what Jackson said make she's feeling warm and happy inside. Her ears has been longing for hearing those kind of sweet words since a few months ago. After she has been a part from Yuju, no one telling her sweet things and words

"SinB, I love you so much. Really much till the stars on the sky are lose to it. So can you please give me a chance to show you how much my love? Will you be my girlfriend?" Jackson finally asking that girl 

SinB didn't deny that she's got a bit shockness with that sudden questions from Jackson. She thought that Jackson maybe will only confess about his feeling but asking her to be his girlfriend was very far from her thought 

She pull away her hands from Jackson soft grip then fidgeting it on her lap. At this time she has two choice only. One is for her to just get out from the car then run to her hostel for sleeping and avoiding Jackson on the next day 

And the other one is she can stay in the car, agreeing to be Jackson lover. Her feet want to run away but her mind told her to stay. Her mind is screaming so loudly as if was asking her to just say yes

But her heart saying the otherwise. Her heart want her to run and leave Jackson in his car alone, her heart seems like was forcing her mind to refreshing and flashing back Yuju face in her head 

Just the right after she saw Yuju face in her head, she has found her decision. She only just want one person in her life, not two or more. Just one and that person is only Yuju 

She's kicking away all the scream that echoing in her head about telling her to say yes to Jackson. She turn around to meeting Jackson face and want to tell him that she can't betraying her wife love and trust toward her 

But her face is indeed meeting her superior face and their lips are almost touching. Jackson was leaning closer to her when he can't see any reaction from that girl 

Both of their eyes are catching each other gaze. Noses are touching and they can feel each other breath on their mouth. The time as if was stop and freezing everything surround them 

SinB head once again was screaming about telling her to let her feel how does it feel when her lips touching a guy lips. Since her lips never touch anyone else lips other than Yuju 

Yuju. That name once again shaking her up from her temporary sleep in Jackson gaze. She was about to pull away her head and distancing her whole face from Jackson face but she can't move 

Why? Because one of Jackson hand is behind SinB head and it's pushing SinB head more closer to him for closing the gap between them. Ignoring SinB whimpering in uncomfortable 

The gap between them has completely close and their lips has completely connecting to each other. With Jackson strong and firm palm pushing SinB lips pressing him 

SinB hands are on his chest, she want to push him away from her. She feel like she's betraying Yuju love for her, Jackson was too strong for her to push him away 

After pushing didn't works, SinB punch his chest this time. Telling him how much she hate the kiss but that guy seems like don't get it, he even pulling her small body toward him more closer. Ignoring all the hit that he got from SinB

Unconsciously SinB tears was come out, she don't want this. She don't like this. She hate this kiss. Her lips only want Yuju lips on it. Not anyone else lips, not even Jackson's. The person that she thought she love when the real fact is not at all 

With her eyes crying non stop, her head that was screaming telling her to chest on Yuju earlier is now screaming out her sorry to Yuju for letting Jackson to kiss her lips that supposed belong to Yuju only

SinB is whimpering in that kiss but Jackson choose to ignore it. SinB couldn't it anymore, with her full power that has she collected earlier. She push Jackson away hardly till that guy back is hitting his own car door 

Seeing SinB tears make Jackson feel guilty for making someone that he love crying. He saw SinB was about to reaching out for his car door and want to open it, he's quickly hold SinB arm but his hand got yank away from the younger one 

"S-sinB I"

"Don't touch me!" SinB yell and land a hard slap on Jackson cheek for being so dare kissing her lips

With that slap, SinB quickly get out from the car and run away to her hostel. Leaving Jackson dumbfounded with the slap that just he got. He then realize that his uncontrollable feeling has put him in trouble mess 

Unconsciously he's crying. Crying out his own mistake and fault. If only he can hold himself from kissing SinB just now. That's what he thought 

 

 

A loud bang from the door was shocking Jieqiong who was happily talking to her girlfriend on the phone. She turn around and saw SinB just pass by her and storming into her room. She's swear that she heard a sob and sniffing from her friend just now

"Hey Chae, can we stop right here? SinB just come home and I think she's not in right condition. I need to watch over her" Jieqiong said and thankfully that her girlfriend is such an understanding person 

SinB close the door loudly, ignoring her friend that was giving her a weird look from the couch. She then make her way toward her room before slumping herself on the bed. She's burying her face on the pillow, crying in there 

"I'm sorry Yuju, I'm really sorry. I betrayed our love and your trust. I'm sorry" SinB said between her tears on her pillow

"SinB ah? What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Jieqiong rushingly sitting on SinB bed before that girl immediately throwing herself into her arms

"Jieqiong, I've committed sin" SinB cry in Jieqiong arms and there's nothing that could Jieqiong do other than patting her back softly for calming that crying girl 

"Yuju, I'm sorry. I swear, I tried to push him" Jieqiong couldn't catch it what SinB was saying but she know, SinB will tell her later about everything that has been happen 

SinB keeps on mumbling her sorry words toward Yuju as if that woman was in front her and listening to it. She didn't know how will she face Yuju. That woman will surely would be hate her if she know about that unwanted kiss between her and Jackson

Chapter 76: KAYATA BRUH. What a ing rollercoaster. HAHAHAHAHA There’s been more happening in the past 10 chapters than the entire story lmfao I thank author-nim for making this as Sinju friendly as possible so I did not have to sacrifice my phone’s life. I’m sad that this isn’t complete and is in such a precarious situation. It’s not quite a cliff-hanger but its in a position where there’s very clearly many things being set up and Sinju is in even more danger.

Deadass this story has gone from a simple fluffy plot to an actual Korean Drama. Everything is there from the vengeful mother-in-law who hates the main love interest+mom has a huge debilitating illness cliche, the main lead is a rich chaebol heir+looks good in everything+has the height for soft cuddles/spooning love interest+gives piggyback rides, the main love interest who’s poor+super cute & lovable, the other love interest who comes in out of nowhere but falls in love with the other side-lead (Yerin). God this is literally a K-drama.

I’m living for this let me just say. If ya ever come back to this author-nim I would be hella hyped and Ik I’m not alone when I say this.

Chapter 68: I just want to say that I will actually throw my phone away if SinB accepts Jackson’s advances in the next chapter. An advanced warning because if I don’t leave another comment that probably means that my phone has been obliterated. I have faith in Hwang Eunbi as a person and as Yuju’s lover. I have faith in their marriage however it may be contested. If Yuju can say no to her past feelings for Eunha, SinB can say no to Jackson Wang’s face. I swear to God Hwang Eunbi. Remember who you’ve left behind in Korea. Remember Yuju’s love and Arin’s affection for you. Remember your god damned family. Don’t throw away the 3 years you’ve spent together. So help me God.

Sinju is crushing my heart lately. This Apple comeback has been amazing. I came across this story like a dream and its been amazing so far. Ngl. I enjoyed every single second I’ve spent reading this. I’m putting this all out so I won’t have to write whilst in rage that I will probably feel should some things happen. Just remember that the past 68 chapters have been amazing and I loved them all. Wish me luck for the next few chapters.
