Chapter 57
One year of TaeminI pulled up at Jonghyuns house and let myself as I usually would.
‘Jong’ I called as I stepped through the door.
‘In here’ I heard him shout.
I followed his voice into his kitchen and sank down on one of the seats.
‘What’s up?’ He asked giving me a look.
‘Jong, I want to ask her to marry me, but I don’t know where to find a ring.’ I blurted out.
He twisted around to look at me, shock on his face, but excitement too.
‘You were going to ask her at Christmas if I remember.’ He said.
‘I know, but then her sister came, and things got busy, but I’m serious this time.’ I told him.
‘Are you sure?’ he asked sinking into the chair next to me and giving me a serious look.
I looked at him confused.
‘Yes’ I said confidently. ‘Why did you say that like that?’
‘I just know there’s been some issues, and are you sure the time is right, right now? She’s in hospital.’
‘I know but that’s exactly why. I couldn’t live if she didn’t live. I want to be with her forever. I want to be better, I want to show her I do love her. I want this.’ I told him.
He looked at me for a long time, his hand covering his mouth before he nodded.
‘Ok, then I will help you find a ring.’ He smiled.
I grinned. ‘Thank you.’
‘I always knew you’d get married first. Even as the baby, you are born for settling down and being with one girl.’ He laughed.
I laughed back. ‘I know. Jong, do you think she is right?’ I asked him.
‘Yeah I really do, but really it doesn’t matter what I think, it’s what you think that counts.’
‘Do you think she’ll say yes?’ I asked shyly.
‘Yeah I think she might.’ He winked.
I felt lighter than I had in three days sitting discussing were to find a ring with Jonghyun. I had been there maybe 30 minutes when my phone rang.
‘Hello?’ I answered.
‘Mr Lee, this is the hospital. I think you need to come back in, it’s your girlfriend.’ said the voice on the other end.
My heart stopped. My face dropped and Jonghyun could see instantly something was wrong.
‘What happened?’ I asked. ‘Is she ok?’
‘If you come back in we can explain. She is in not immediate danger, but it is necessary you come in as soon as possible.’
‘I’m on my way.’ I said hanging up the phone.
‘What . . .?’ Jonghyun started.
‘It’s the hospital, they said I need to come back in, now.’ I said grabbing my keys from the table.
‘Do you want me to come?’ He said standing up with me.
‘No no, I’ll call you when I know what’s going on.’ I told him. I raced to my car and then raced to the hospital as fast as I could.
It was a long few minutes dr
