Hard Truths

Ever Enough

When she was trying to hold onto him, he pushed her out. She would not lie, but there really was some time when she thought their relationship would go somewhere. They did not really possess many options. They did not want to suffer until they die just because of an arrangement. So, it was either they should embrace each other or let go. Then, she saw how he had tried to compromise. Therefore, she was willing to try. However, later did she knew that she was struggling by herself while he never sweated anything for the sake of the relationship.

It actually killed her when they did not talk. It killed her when he ignored her. It killed her when he was busy with his life. But then she was not in the place where she could complain about that, because at the end, he would remind her about what they were.

            “I’m sorry, Han. I really am.” Now he truly was sorry for her, but then he could not do anything. He was just too in love with the idea of his lost love. Seeing her again after two years gave him a painful realization that his current life was not the life he wanted.

            “You know that this isn’t the life I chose. I keep telling you about this...” He said carefully.

Seriously, Kim Jongin?

He made her flew away to Japan (calling it a winter break) and made her spent almost a week in a bloody lonesome house without having proper conversation with anyone besides Hayoung—through phone calls—and he said this was not the life he chose? She swore she fought so hard to numb out a hasty pinch in her chest before a single tear escaped through the corner of her eye; she quickly wiped it off. Too bad Jongin had spotted the little crystal before she managed to clean the track.

With cracking voice, she spoke, “You also told me about this,” Paused, “That you wanted to give it a try, and that we are adults with responsibility, you said we’re not the only reason for a thing happens that’s why you— tried to deal with it, and the last time you told me to get better this time, but what the hell, Kim Jongin?”

He swallowed, “That’s not enough.”

Whoa. That was quite a blow. Hadn’t she done her best? Was it never enough?

              “You’re not giving it a chance!”

             “I did, Huisoo, I did, and this is how we turn out! I tried to work this out, I tried, but it’s never like they say! It’s never like what you think!” His eyes flashed dangerously.

At this point, she turned out to be a highly combustible stick of dynamite while he was a lit match head ready to strike the fuse in a moment if the talk did not stop now. They were going to make some great explosions.

            “You didn’t. I struggled by myself and all you did was shutting me out miserably! You don’t even give a about what I feel!” She never wanted to fight because she knew how scary she might turn, but bad vibe had taken its toll over her. She had lost.

             “Did I tell you to choose to be miserable? You chose it to follow my lead and you never asked how deep or how far I will go. Don’t tell me something else, Han Huisoo.” He spat furiously. Only when she began to cry, he realized what he did wrong.

            “You told me that I’m the one who chose to be miserable like it’s a bad choice. Everything is my fault, isn’t it?” She looked at him in horror, her blood thumping in her ears. Her head had begun to spin.

              “Huisoo, I- ”

             “No,” She almost lost a grip on herself just by hearing him calling her surname, “It's needless to say,” She was choking from trying so hard to swallow her cries, “Even if all this time I know you’re selfish, I’m surprised that you turn out worse. I tore my heart out in front of you, and all you can say is I’m not enough,” She was raging now, standing in front of him, shouting like a mad woman, “You’re an arse, Kim Jongin.”

His voice was caught inside his throat. He closed his eyes and spoke to her in a thousand silent ways because some things were just too hard to say now. He did not want to say something that would possibly hurt anyone either way, but he needed to put an end to this.

               “I- I’m sorry,” H

Chapter 29: Wow thankyou....
Didn't expect to see your updates again really soon.
This is the very first time to see the vulnerable Jong In. Under his hard and tough shell, he's really a soft guy, he has emotions.
Seems like his relationship with Huisoo is getting stronger....

Chapter 29: Chapter 29: I love you so much for updating again. I can't wait for the next chapter to come 🥲

This is the kind of relationship that everyone want. A healthy communication and huisoo and jongin have it. They both are so gentel to each other, very comforting and understanding. I got a bit sad when jongin started sobbing but also happy to see that he's very open in front of huisoo. I remember when their relationship was push and pull it was so frustrating and now here they are communicatiing everythinf 🥲🥲🥲 i feel like a proud mother ☺️

Their small gestures bring smiles to my face. Like him going on a shopping with her while holding hands or when he touches huisoo's face in the car. They're sooo sweet.
I'm a bit surprised they still don't share a room *wink* *wink* haha don't mind my ert mind 🙃

Anyways, thank you for updating. I hope next chapter won't be too far away 😁

Chapter 28: Omg can't believe my eyes with the notification from you...
Thank you for comig back again after such a long long time.....
Such a great story as always, really....
Huisoo, she's the real angel coming down to the earth, having the hardest (joined) responsibility to take care of this special family with all of their dramas....
Having to deal with Jongin himself is sometimes quite draining emotionally, but here she has to take care of the whole family, with sincerity. She treats them like they are her own family.
She really has a big heart....
I hope things will get better for the siblings...

I hope to see your next updates soon....

Chapter 28: OMG YESSSS YOU UPDATED! i saw it last night but it was too late and i needed to sleep and now i just finished reading the last 3 chapters to remind me what happened.

I'm glad jongin was on huisoo's side tho it was his brother insulting his fiance. It's nice to see those two got each other's back considering their relationship didn't start smooth. And huisoo is soooo gentle towards his siblings. I love how she handles each of their problems. She's not a mother yet but this will be like a practice for motherhood 😂
I just love these two. They have like the healthiest relationship ever after he proposed her for the 2nd time.
I just couldn't wait to see more of them and all i can say is i have to be patient. Thanks a lot for updating i love this chapter so much. I hope you'll still continue the story till the end 😊

Chapter 27: Hello author i'm your 'old' reader from 9 years a ago. I saw this story was being updated so i opened and decided to reread every chapter to find out there was no update 😭😭😭😭😭

But honestly i just realized that my opinion for this story has never changed since 9 years ago. I still love it so much. It took me less than 48 hours to wrapped it up and it still gives me the same feelings. The characters are just too realistic. There is not even 1 annoying character. Not even jongin's ex. The conflicts are just exactly like what people experince in real life. I'm sad and happy and frustrated just like how they feel in the story. I'm glad you revealed how she ended up becoming jongin's fiance. But s till would like to read some more of their intimate moments as they only decided to start over again for the last couple of chapters, dont you think we need more of jongin-huisoo's moments? 😁

9 years ago i was just a young girl who was obsessed with exo and i still am an exol in 2024. A lot of things have happened in life and i hope youre life treats you well too. I wish to see the ending of this fanfic as i've been waiting for so long for the update haha 😅
And im sure there are some other readers that agree with me. Please please please it's gonna bother me for life to not know the ending of Never Enough 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
