Perfect MatchKyungsoo drove into the Joohee's neighbourhood. He hasn't gone far when Jongdae called him, thus he managed to turn around in no time. As he approached Joohee's house, he never stopped praying. Please don't let them meet.
Kyungsoo parked his car right outside Joohee's house. He got out of the car and saw Joohee was still outside. He froze when he saw another person. Jae In.
Has she told her yet? Currently Joohee had a blank expression. So does Jae In. He approached her. "Joohee-"
Pak! Joohee slapped him on his left cheek. It was stinging, but not as much as the pain in his chest. "Joohee, I didn't mean to lie to you. I..."
"How could you? How could you do this to me?" Joohee's tears are welling up. "You want to set me up with somebody? Do I really look that pathetic to you?" Kyungsoo muted. He knew it was his fault because he did not come clean in the first place. He lowered his head. He couldn't open his mouth. Guilt is mounting up.
"Do you want to know why I'm not seeing anybody? It's because of you! I couldn’t forget you!" Finally her tears came out. Jae In and unexpectedly Suho watched the drama unfolds before their eyes. Kyungsoo kept his head down but he could hear her sobbing. She was hurt. He was hurt too.
"Leave. I don't want to see you ever again." With that, Joohee ran into her house and never looked back.
Suho stood in front of Joohee’s room. The door was closed, never been opened since last night. He did not want to bother her, but he was worried. He decided to check up on her, even if she will chase him out.
He took out a bunch of keys from his pocket. Auntie Bongsun has already prepared her meal. Slowly, Suho unlocked the door.
“Joohee?”
Joohee turned her gaze towards Suho. Her eyes were puffy. She must've cried a lot. Her face was blank, as if her soul has left her body. "Are you okay?" He put his hand on her forehead. It was a bit warmer than usual. "Looks like you're coming down with fever. Take some medicine-"
"I'm fine."
"But, you are-"
"Leave me alone
