“Bommie, what do you want from Jiyong at this early ?” TOP asked sleepily while driving his girlfriend to Jiyong’s house... Bom called her early in the morning telling him to pick her up because she needs to meet someone...

     .... “I told you I just want to talk to him...” Bom answered calmly without looking at him

     TOP frowned... “about what? And why at this hour...?"he paused before looking at his watch... " It's still 8:00 in the morning,  I’m sure he’s still sleeping...” he told her hoping they could go back at his house and sleep again...

     Bom slightly turn her head to the side to face her boyfriend... “ I don’t know, I just have a feeling that I need to see him now...” she answered truthfully... she also can't understand herself as to why she wanted to see Jiyong, she just woke up and her heart beats rapidly, feeling that somethings bad gonna happen... and the first person that comes into her mind is Jiyong... may be seeing Jiyong would lessen her worries...

     TOP sighed....“if this is about yesterday can’t you just let it pass? I told you I already talked to him...” he tried to reasoned out...

     Bom rolled her eyes in annoyance... “don’t ask and just drive will you?...”.... She said dismmisively...

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

     Sohee is busy preparing their breakfast until she felt a familiar arms encircling around her waist... "J-Ji..."she gulped nervously feeling Jiyong's chest on her back. Even though they're sleeping together she's still not used with him being sweet towards her...

     "hey y..." Jiyong bent his head and kissed her exposed neck, making her shudder.... he smirked, " are you done cooking our breakfast?"

     "almost..., so can you please let me go so we could eat? you still have work today..." Sohee told him while caressing his arm on her waist...

     "arasso..." Jiyong smiled before letting her go....

     Sohee turn around and met his eyes shyly....... "Y-yah....you-" but she stopped when they heard the sound of his doorbell, indicating that someone is outside...

     The two snapped their heads towards the direction of the door, but Sohee turned her gaze back at Jiyong... "Someone is outside, are you expecting someone?" her voice is full of worries and it didn't escape from Jiyong...

     "None..." Jiyong answered as he stared at her petrified face... "Don't worry, I think that's ahjumma, the one who's cleaning my house..."

     Sohee sighed in relief, she thought it's someone's else... someone they know and it scares her because she's not yet ready reveal their relationship to others... she snapped out of her thoughs when she felt Jiyong's hands holding hers, she lifted her gaze and met his eyes...

     ... "Don't worry, okay?" Jiyong asked

     Sohee heaved a deep breathe before giving him a small nod...

     Jiyong smiled... " I'll just call someone, can you please open the door and tell ahjumma to just comeback tomorrow?"

     Sohee looked at him nervously... “Do you think it’s okay for her to see me here?” she asked

     Jiyong nod at her... “neh, don’t worry okay?...”

     “arasoo...” Sohee said before walking towards the door...... she sighed nervously before opening the door... “good morning ahj-“ but her eyes widen in shock to see the person she doesn't want to see.... she gripped the door handle tighter.... “B...Bom-s..shi...”

     Just like Sohee, Bom and TOP were both surprised  to see the girl in Jiyong's house...

     Bom fumed in anger the moment she saw Sohee's face, but she tried her best not to burst her anger because she know it will just complicate things...she then felt TOP's hand holding hers to calm her... “what the hell are you doing here?” she asked, seething in anger

     ...“Sohee why are you here?” TOP asked having his displeased look on his face. He knew seeing Sohee in Jiyong's house will cause another problem between Bom and Jiyong, and also between him and her...

    Sohee is shaking nervously while looking at the two people in front of her... she wanted to run and hide but she can't move her legs, she wanted to call Jiyong for help but she's afraid to even open ....  

    Bom's eyes squinted as she waited for Sohee to answer. Her look at her is blazing and want to strangle the girl who caused and will cause another misery and pain for her cousin...

     Looking at Sohee's petrified face, TOP knew they can't get an answer from her... "Where is Jiyong?" he tried to ask again... "Damn you Jiyong, I will kill you later. make sure you have a good explanation on this..."

     But instead of answering, another familiar voice was heard, and Bom's anger started to boils after hearing Jiyong's endearment to the girl infront of her...

     “babe, is that ahjuma...” voice of Jiyong was heard before he stood beside Sohee, wrapping his hand on her waist, he frowned as she flinched on his touch, he then followed her gaze and the smile on his face vanished upon seeing their visitor... his eyes widened in shock seeing them...  “N...Noona... B..Bom N...oona, Hyung...” he stuttered while looking at his two friend...

     Bom clenched her fist...“babe?” she questioned hoping that she heard it wrong....

     "Jiyong-"....

     Jiyong's body tensed up upon hearing Bom's angry voice. he feels scared, not for him but for Sohee, he knew Bom very well when she's mad... “Hyung, Noona let me explain-“

     “J..Ji...” Sohee cut him off and shook her head, telling him not to say anything...

     But Jiyong just smiled at her and mouthed ‘it’s okay’ before pulling her behind his back to protect from Bom... “Noona...”

     Bom slowly moved towards them but TOP caught her arm to stop her...  "Bom...." he called out with a warning on his voice...

     ....But Bom is not on the mood to listen to anybody,... she face Jiyong with a serious expression... “why did you call her babe? And why is she wearing your shirt...” she muttered angrily... Of course she's not stupid to not know the answer since the answer and the evidence is obviously in front of her...

     Never in Jiyong's entire life he felt scared to someeone and for someone... But at the moment, he wanted to elope with Sohee because he feels scared for Sohee's safety...  "I need to be strong... if I can't protect Sohee from Bom noona then how can I protect her from the others?..." he thought.... he heaved a deep breathe before meeting Bom's eyes.... “Noona... mianhe...” he deeply apologize... “ but I love Sohee....”

     Hearing Jiyong's answer, Bom felt like she was just stabbed by someone and it hurts... it hurts so much that she wanted cry... if she's already hurting, then how will Dara take the pain...

     Bom's silence made TOP to worry...  he looked at Jiyong like he have completely lost my his mind...  “Yah Jiyong! We already talked about this right!”  He exclaimed trying not believed what he just confessed....

     Jiyong looked at him with so much guilt... “I’m sorry Hyung....” he tried to apologize again... “But I already made a decision, I chose Sohee because I love h-“

    Then,  A resounding slap landed on Jiyong's face...

     "Jiyong...!!!".... Tears started to fall from Sohee's eyes seeing the red mark on Jiyong's cheeks...

     “How dare you!!!” Bom muttered angrily...

     "Bom..."... TOP tried to pull her away but Bom yanked his hand away from her...

     "HOW DARE YOU!!! YOU ING !!!"  Bom shouted before giving him another slap,  placing all her anger to the hit....

     “Ji...” Sohee was already crying so hard... "please stop..."she begged

    Two slaps hurt so much but Jiyong took it fully, not moving on his spot ...  he felt the pain on his
