43 ♥ One Heart
Hearts are Made to be Broken
♥ Eunye ♥
"Now...," Hoya stepped forward and reached out his hand so I could take it, "...can I have my special girl back?"
I swore my face was burning because of him. His smile was too charming and the words he just said to me... It's not a dream, right?
All my fatigue after the long journey disappeared to nowhere because of Hoya. I didn't feel sleepy anymore since my heart was beating out of control right now that I even held my breath.
I didn't expect him to come. On top of all, I didn't expect him to call me as his special girl. At first I just wanted him to go away since I wasn't in a good state to argue with him so I pretended that I didn't know him.
"Eunye," he spoke up, breaking the awkward silence between us. I snapped back to my senses and looked into his sincere eyes. "Will you forgive me?"
I was too embarassed that I unconsciously closed the door without any warning. I didn't know how to react and my face would be a mess right now.
"Aish!" Hoya groaned in pain behind the door. "My head!"
Due to panic, I quickly opened the door to find him squatting down. He was rubbing his head with both of his hands. I approached him and checked his head, "Hoya! I-I'm sorry! Where is it? Which-"
"Just kidding," he stuck out his tongue to me. My eyes widened in shock but, the next moment I know, he cupped my cheek and pressed his lips on mine for seconds.
I wanted to push him away because I was mad that he just lied to me but I didn't have any strength to do it. It's like Hoya absorbed all my power with the kiss.
"Are you going to be mad?" he asked me after parting our lips. He smiled sheepishly, brushing my bottom lip with his thumb. "Because of what I just did?"
I quickly stood up just to end up losing my balance. Hoya caught me, pulling me into a hug. He buried his face on my hair and whispered, "I'm sorry, Eunye."
Words were stuck in my throat and tears rolled down on my cheeks. I sobbed and hit his chest rapidly, "You're a jerk... Lee Howon, you're really a jerk..."
"I know," he retorted, my long hair with his fingers. "But I will be the biggest jerk in the world if I don't love you back."
He pulled away and cupped my face with his hands. As he wiped my tears, he murmured vividly, "Eunye... You are so close to me that I never realized how special you are for me. I should have realized it earlier."
If this was a dream, I thought I wouldn't want to wake up.
"You said I broke your heart," he gave me a warm smile. "Let me give you mine. Is it alright if two of us... If two of us have just one heart together?"
He didn't really wait for my respond. Hoya tilted his head slightly and I closed my eyes, letting our lips to meet again for the second time... or at least I thought so.
"That's our third kiss, you know," he chuckled with a shy smile.
"Eh?" I blinked in confusion. I was pretty sure that I was not that bad in counting. "Third?"
He winked playfully and put his index finger on his lips, "It's a secret."

Eunye remembers everything. She remembers everything perfectly. She remembers Hoya's confession to her after they returned to Seoul. She remembers how Hoya shut her again with another kiss when she was curious about their unknown first kiss.
She is so happy that Hoya returned her feeling even though none of them spoke about being in a relationship. Eunye doesn't really care about it for now.
All she knows is she has found the one who could heal her broken heart for once and forever.
That's why when she opens her eyes, recognizing the hospital ward and people around her with anxiety due to the accident which is just happened to her, she decides to deceive Hoya.
"Eunye," Hoya embraces her hand, smiling to her in relief, "you're awake..."
A tricky idea crosses her mind, remembering that Hoya still doesn't want to tell her about when he kissed her for the first time. Her wound is never really serious since the start; she is so lucky.
"Who are you?" Eunye chooses the question and Hoya's eyes widen in shock. The others gasp in surprise, hoping that they just misheard Eunye's question.
Before Hoya can ask anything to her, the doctor and nurse step inside, asking the visitors to leave so they can check Eunye's condition. As much as he want to stay, Hoya stands up and walks out.
"Foolish...," Eunye murmurs vividly, clear enough for Hoya to hear. He stops his steps right at the door, turning around to look at the girl who is laying down on the hospital bed.
She smiles weakly and gives him a wink, "I'm fine, Lee Howon."
Hoya's heart is jumping up and down inside but the nurse pushes him out of the ward, asking for him to wait outside with the others.
"She remembers...," Bora mumbles with a happy smile. "She remembers you, Howon!"
"Did you hear that too, Bora Noona?" Hoya asks her. He wants to assure himself that his ears didn't deceive him. "She did mention my name, didn't she?"
Sunggyu lets out a laughter first and says, "Eunye tricked you, Hoya. Look at the bright side! At least it means she is alright!"
Hoya smiles wider, knowing that Sunggyu's words are true. Eunye is not suffering serious wound and he is the most grateful person to know that.
Everyone is happy, even Hyomin herself. She apologizes again to them, saying that she would pay for the hospital fee for Eunye. Hoya makes her promise that she will never harm anyone else again.
Each of them is more than just grateful to know that Eunye is all good.
Little do they know about how much Woohyun is hiding his sadness behind a smile in the middle of the crowd.

♥ Woohyun ♥
"I'm sorry," Hyomin bows in ninety degrees. Her eyes are swollen and she has apologized to me for at least twenty times now. "I'm so sorry..."
I smile and tell her that it's alright now. She should stop apologizing because I'm not mad at her at all. Instead I apologize to her because I never realized her feeling for me in the past.
"You should hate me...," she mumbles, clenching her fists with regret. "Why?"
I glance at the ward where Eunye is in. Hoya sits next to her and both of them are smiling to each other with loving eyes. My heart aches when I see them yet I know Eunye will never see me like that.
"Because hate doesn't do any good," I answer, returning my gaze to her. "I'm sure you will find someone who will love you truly, the way you love him, Hyomin."
She thanks me and finally excuses herself, leaving the hospital after helping Eunye with the hospital administration. Sunggyu and Bora also leave after Sunggyu gave his thank you present to Eunye.
"I'll leave first then," Sunggyu pats my shoulder twice. "I must walk Bora back."
I just give him a nod, faking a smile. I tell them to be careful on their way back.
Sunggyu gives me a smile and speaks, "Woohyun, your happiness is just so close to you that you don't realize it yet. I know it."
"Thank you," I laugh softly, thanking him for the simple but meaningful encouragement. I know he just wants to cheer me up. "I'll see you at school, Gyu Hyung."
Not feeling that I should disturb Hoya and Eunye's moment, I choose to wait outside, leaning against the wall and stare at the night sky.
I heave a sigh, thinking about how many events that have happened in my life since Eunye came. Even though she did break my heart into pieces, she made me felt loved and I never regretted anything.
I just hope that she will be happy with Hoya. As long as she is happy, there is nothing more I will ask for.
"Woohyun?"
Hyuna approaches me with a can of green tea in her hand. She hands it to me with a smile, "For you."
"Thank you," I take it as she stands right next to me, resting her back on the wall. "I'm sorry. You should be enjoying cake now."
"It's alright," Hyuna shakes her head and drops her gaze shyly, "It's just a lame excuse anyway..."
"Hmm?" I tilt my head and ask what she is talking about. She doesn't say anything but I notice that her cheeks are blushing.
Is it strange that I think she looks so cute and beautiful when she is blushing?
"Hyuna," I call out her name so she will look at me. "Do you like amusement park?"
She blinks in confusion but she nods slowly, "Yes, I do. Why?"
My lips turn into a curve. I always wanted to go with Eunye before but I think Hyuna will be a good companion for me.
Hyuna is really different from Eunye but there is something about her that can make me smile just by looking at her.
I straighten my body and look at Hyuna. I pat her head, "Let's go to an amusement park tomorrow. It's my treat."
Hyuna's face beams and I think a smile is really suitable for her.
I give a final glance at the couple in the ward. Hoya just plants a kiss on Eunye's forehead and, even though it's hurt, I smile when I see Eunye is smiling so happily.
Be happy, Eunye.
