Complexities of Yeun

Chapter 25

Siwon and Hannah cleaned up everything after the SUJU members left.

“They were really funny.” Said Hannah

“Yeah…they can be funny when they put their heart into it.” Said Siwon as he washes the dishes with Hannah

Hannah laughed.

“No, they are natural.” Said Hannah

“So….who do you like the best among them?” asked Siwon

“Hmm…They are all nice guys…but I told you already that my favourite in SuJu is you right?” asked Hannah

“Really?” asked Siwon

“I think I already mentioned that before. You didn’t just want me to repeat, right?” asked Hannah

“I did want to hear it again.” Said Siwon making Hannah giggle

“But I am not convinced…I maybe your favourite Suju member…but I am not your favourite Idol, am I?” asked Siwon

“HuH?” asked Hannah “Who else?”

“You have a favourite Big bang member.” Said Siwon

Oh….TOP…

Hannah took a moment to look at Siwon.

“Is it true then that you are jealous of TOP?” asked Hannah

“HuH?” asked Siwon “Well…I…I think your first meeting with him is very unusual…” said Siwon

“I explained that it wasn’t what people thought it was right?” asked Hannah

“Yeah…but still…you’ll have days with him for the shooting of the drama…that might even be more frequent than WGM.” Said Siwon

Really? Is Siwon really saying these things?! Is he...really jealous?

“I mean…” Siwon grunted in frustration “ All right I admit…I’m a bit bothered by it.”

“Oh…” Hannah can’t contain the joy that suddenly surged up her chest.

“I am not even his love team…I only have a very small part in the drama.” Said Hannah

“So you mean you’ll only spend a few days with him?” asked Siwon

“With them…not just with him. And yes, in the schedule…it seems they only need me for 3 days.” Said Hannah

Ahh….so it is not a very big part then.

After finishing everything Siwon looked at the clock…it’s 2:30PM…and their WGM schedule today ends at 3PM…Siwon suddenly felt that deep longing inside him…

Hannah…is going to transform back to being aloof…cold…after this right? It is only during WGM that she will talk to him like this…treat him like her husband…But once WGM taping is done…they will be back to being strangers…

Siwon reached for his chest massaging it hoping the pain will be gone…but it stayed… and it gets stronger as he watched Hannah watering the plants by the garden.

Siwon walked towards Hannah and reached his arms around her waist from behind her.

Hannah dropped the water hose. Siwon…just hugged her from behind.

And then she heard his words.

“I wish that I…can stop time right now.” Said Siwon “So that we don’t have to go back to reality yet.”

“Op…pa.” Hannah felt something stuck in …weird how her tears would suddenly want to flow…

In Hannah’s heart…she also wants to freeze time…right here right now…in this pretend world…where Siwon cares for her…where he might like her…where he gets jealous because of her relations with other men…where he might…fall for her…

But this moment…these precious moments don’t last…and until it does…She’s going to hold on to it.

Hannah touched Siwon’s hands on her stomach. She pulled them lose and then she faced Siwon reaching her arms to his back, leaning her face on his shoulder…returning the embrace.

And then Siwon tightened his hold on Hannah. They were just silent for a while…just standing there in each other’s arms.

But time goes on…and it can’t be stopped. When Hannah loosened her hold on Siwon, Siwon did the same…and then Hannah picked up her things and left on her car.

Siwon felt that painful burning in his chest… The next WGM taping is in 2 weeks…

2weeks…has never felt this long…

----------------------------

Hannah dropped her bag in the car…it’s time to go back to reality…the acting is done…she is not Siwon’s wife anymore…she’s Hannah the idol again…The  shift in her persona should be automatic…

But it isn’t...

Until this moment, Hannah still feels Siwon’s hug…and her heart still longs to be with her pretend husband…

“But I need to wake up…I can’t dream on my own like this.” Said Hannah

Hannah took  a deep breath.

“What’s next Oppa?” asked Hannah

“You will go straight to your dorm for now, Hannah. Tomorrow’s call time for the drama shooting is early.” Said the driver

“Umm…all right.” Said Hannah

Hannah heard her phone ringing and checked it… It’s Siwon…

Why is he calling? Did he forget to say something?

No…whatever it is…it’s no longer within WGM…they should not talk outside WGM…

Hannah let the phone ring until the ringing stopped.

Yeah…that’s right…they won’t need to talk about anything now.

And then the ringing started again. When Hannah saw Siwon’s name, she still did not pick it up.

“Hannah, you’re phone is ringing.” Said the driver

“I can hear it Oppa, it’s beside me.” Said Hannah

“Why aren’t you picking it up? What if it’s urgent?” asked the driver

“It’s somebody I don’t know.” Said Hannah

And then Hannah turned her phone off.

---------------------------

Siwon is restless that night…he can no longer count how many times he tried calling Hannah…but it’s either she doesn’t pick up…or her phone is off…this confirms that Hannah will never talk to him again…outside WGM…

Siwon went to the fridge to get some beer, but opening it made matters worse. When he saw all the things Hannah bought him…he just felt weak all of a sudden. He took the bottle of wine…she said it’s healthier than beer…

Siwon took the entire bottle and went to the sofa…until when will Hannah ignore him?

Siwon took his phone.

“Hyung…Siwon here.” Said Siwon

“Yeah I know…what do you need?” asked his manager

“I need Madame’s manager’s phone number.” Said Siwon

“Hmm…what do you need it for?” asked his manager

“I…want to do something for my wife.” Said Siwon

“You have Hannah’s number…why don’t you just call her?” asked his manager

“It’s meant to be a surprise.” Said Siwon

“There is no event.” Said the manager

“You don’t need an event to see your wife, right?” asked Siwon

“You have WGM tapings to see your wife.” Said the manager

“I want to see her…sooner than that.” Said Siwon

Siwon’s manager stopped talking.

“Hyung?” asked Siwon “Are you still there?”

“Yeah…I’m h
