Chapter 13 : One by one

My One True Love

Chaerin  slams on the breaks when she heard the last sentence her wife said, she looks at her and saw Sandara covering her face with both hands

 

“What did you just say?”Chaerin asked her but no respond comes from the girl sitting beside her

 

“I asked you what did you—“Dara cut her off

 

“I don’t know what I said alright!!”she said

 

“Why you used those words, me and your wife huh?!”

 

“Take me home please..”Sandara begs but Chaerin punch the steering wheel again causing Darin to wake-up

 

“Mommy Cee, what’s going on?”the little girl asked

 

“Darin baby, just close your eyes and cover your ears please..”Sandara said to their daughter and look at Chaerin

 

“Please Chaerin, just take us home. Please..”she begs again, Chaerin saw the fear and confusion in her eyes, those emotions she had never seen before, she look out of the window and starts to drive again. When they reach their house, Sandara took Darin out of the car and carry her, Seungri saw her and smiles

 

“So how’s the park?”he asked but when Dara is close to him, he saw that she’s crying

 

“Hey, what’s wrong?”he asked again but Dara continues on walking towards upstairs. Seungri then looks at Chaerin who is just standing outside

 

“Chaerin, what’s going on?”he asked for the third time

 

“I don’t want to talk about it now, Oppa..”she answered and walk-away

 

 

 

 

 

INSIDE DARIN’S ROOM

 

Dara is still crying, she can’t believe that she said those words but she can’t blame herself. She doesn’t know Chaerin too well, she keeps on saying Sandara’s name so she can talk to her but in times like this she can’t even find her

 

“Mommy please stop crying..”Darin said and wipe the tears from her mother’s eyes, Dara look at her and smiles

 

“Mommy Cee didn’t mean anything she said..”Darin added, Dara furrow her eyebrows

 

“Did you hear our conversation?”Dara asked the little girl and she nods at her

 

“I’m so sorry baby, Mommy’s got scared and I don’t know what to do. I don’t know what will I say to your Mommy Chaerin, I don’t even know what’s happening between the two”she explained

 

“I know mom that’s why I’m saying sorry to you..”

 

“You don’t have to baby, it’s not your fault..”Dara answered and hug her, her mind told her that she needed to stop this act before anything else happen, she then hears a knock on the door and saw Seungri standing outside

 

“May I come in?”he asked, Darin nods her head and went towards her bed

 

“I’ll go wash-up for a while, Mommy. You go talk to Uncle Seungri, okay?”Darin said, Seungri gives a small smile to the little girl and they both watch her go inside the bathroom

 

“Tell me what happened?”Seungri asked, Dara can’t stop the tears from falling and looks at him

 

“A guy- A guy named Timothy saw me at the park and kiss me on the lips..”Dara explained, she saw Seungri’s reactions

 

“Chaerin saw us, I mean I didn’t push the guy because I was shock..”she added

 

“Then your sister punched him on the face, I helped him—“Seungri cut her off

 

“You helped him?!”he asked

 

“What am I supposed to do? I don’t even know why the guy kissed me! You forgot to tell me about him!”Dara yelled

 

“Okay, okay please don’t yell..”he said and looks at the bathroom, afraid that Darin might hear them

 

“Timothy – Timothy Simmons is Sandara’s lover. My sister found out when one of her friends told her. At first she didn’t believe it but as days goes by, many people saw Sandara going out with him..”Seungri explains, he looks down and sighs

 

“When she confronted her, all she said was he’s just a friend of hers. Chaerin don’t know who to believe anymore until one day she personally saw them together..”he added

 

“Why would Sandara do that to her?”Dara asked, Seungri shrug his shoulder and look at the bed

 

“I don’t know, I haven’t go the chance to talk to Sandara about this..”Dara went quiet for a while, now it’s a bit clearer to her what happened to the two but she’s still have a problem facing Chaerin and hoping that she won’t see Timothy again

 

“But what I’ll do now huh? I don’t know what will I say or what will I explain to her, Oppa..”Dara said, Seungri looks at her and hold her hand

 

“I’ll be the one talking to her. You stay here with Darin..”Dara nods her head and Seungri stands up and leave Darin’s room. He’s looking for his sister and he knows where to find her, he knocks on the door of their Mini-bar and saw Chaerin sitting on a chair

 

“Don’t you think it’s a bit early for that?”Seungri asked her when he saw a bottle of scotch on the table

 

“Don’t worry, I won’t let myself get drunk..”Chaerin answered and took a sip on her glass, Seungri pulls a chair and sit in front of her

 

“Sandara told me what happened..”he said, Chaerin didn’t look at him, she instead sip some scotch and closes her eyes

 

“Why did you punched Timothy on the face?”Seungri asked again

 

“That guy deserved it! I saw him kissing my wife, Oppa! What do you want me to do?!”Chaerin answered almost yelling at her brother

 

“Relax, let’s talk in a calm way..”

 

“Sandara didn’t pushed him away! She let him kiss her in front of me, can you believe that?!”

 

“Chaerin..”

 

“I love her with all my heart, Oppa. I wanted to fix our marriage not only for Darin’s sake but because I don’t want to lose her..”Chaerin starts to cry, Seungri didn’t interrupt her, it will be best for her sister to cry it all out

 

“She even said that she don’t know what to me and my wife! I mean, what’s she meant by that one?”Chaerin asked her brother hoping for a clearer answer

 

“Chae, don’t you remember what the doctor said?”Seungri answered her

 

“There’s some part of her memory that she can’t remember, that’s why she can’t remember Timothy. It doesn’t mean anything Chaerin. I understand what you felt when you saw the two of them together again but please remember that your wife had an accident with you..”

 

“Oppa..”

 

“Go and talk to her, apologize for what you acted. Sandara doesn’t deserve to be treated like this. If you really love her then you need to be patient with her..”Seungri added, Chaerin looks at the glass she’s holding, she remembers the fear and confusion on her eyes, she sighs and nods her head

 

“She’s in Darin’s room but If she won’t talk to you or still feel scared of you, you need to understand...”Seungri said

 

“Okay Oppa, I’ll go talk to her..”Seungri nods his head once and saw her sister stands up and walk head to the door and went out. After Chaerin closes the door behind her, Seungri lean his back on the chair and thinks

 

‘This is harder  than I thought. I don’t want Dara to experience this but I don’t want my sister to be broken hearted again..’he closes his eyes and sighs

 

‘Sandara if you can hear me, please help us out.’

 

 

 

 

 

Darin’s Room

 

DARA

 

I’m watching my daughter play with her dolls, she told me to play with her but I’m not in the mood for that. Chaerin’s anger keeps on coming back in my mind, the way she hit the wheels, drove fast and I think if only she can.. she can hit me, she will..

 

“Knock, knock..”I heard her voice, I saw Darin look to her door and run towards it

 

“Mommy Cee..”she said, I didn’t move at all nor look at the door

 

“Hey sweetie, what are you doing?”she asked, I can feel her standing beside me

 

“Nothing Mommy Cee, I’m just playing with my dolls. I asked Mom to come play with me but she’s still sad about what happened earlier..”Darin answered, I wish Darin didn’t said that but kids will be kids, they will say anything they want

 

“Oh I see. Uhm baby, can I borrow Mommy for a while?” I heard Chaeri asked, Darin looks at me and I hope I can say No to the little girl

 

“Sure Mommy Cee, I’ll go downstairs to get some milk and cookies..”she answered, I saw her walk towards me and give me a hug. I follow her with my gaze and saw her went out of the door

 

“Sandara..”I heard Chaerin called me but like what I said, I don’t want to talk to her for a while

 

“Can we talk?”she asked me, I know I need enough courage to answer her, she will ask surely about Timothy and I don’t know what will I answer

 

“Not now please..”I answered, almost in a whisper, I heard her sigh then she sits on the bed and look at me

 

“I understand if you are still mad at me. I’m sorry for the way I acted. I forgot to control my temper baby..”she said, she took my hand and gently squeeze it

 

“Please don’t be scared of me. I won’t hurt you, I can’t hurt you. You know how much I love you..”she added, I look at her and saw tears on her eyes

 

Why would you do that to her Sandara? Why would you hurt someone like Chaerin? All she could do is to love you with all of her heart

 

“I don’t want to lose you again. I know we’re just starting to fix our marriage, I’ll do anything to have you back again..”Chaerin added, I felt pity for her, I reach out for her face and wipe the tears from her eyes

 

“Then you need to trust me, you need to trust me that it’s you that I love and not him. I won’t be here with you if I love Timothy, Chaerin..”I answered, I saw her nod her head and then she hug me

 

“Thank you baby, I promise to you that I won’t do that again. I trust you and you know that. I’m so sorry again..” I hug her back and let her feel that I won’t leave her, that I will stay with her and Darin as much as I can, I broke the hug and look deeply into her eyes

 

“I love you Chaerin..”I said, to be honest, I don’t felt weird at all nor have a hard time saying it to her, I feel like that’s what my heart and mind wants to say, I saw her smile at me

 

“I love you more Sandara..”she answered, I let her lay down on my lap, I can see that she’s tired and after a few minutes she fell asleep

 

“Sleep tight baby..”I said, I carefully remove her head on my lap when I saw our daughter with Seungri

 

“Did you punched her?”he asked me, Darin laughs at her Uncle and place her plate of cookies on the floor

 

“What do you think of me like an Amazon girl or something..”I answered, he smiled at me and look at his sister

 

“So everything okay now?”he asked, I nod my head at him

 

“Can you stay with her for a while Oppa? I need to get something in the car..”I said

 

“Sure and oh can you lock the gate before you go inside, Chaerin forgot to lock it..”he answered

 

“Okay Oppa, Darin you stay with your Uncle here okay? I’ll be back in a minute..”I said to my daughter

 

“Yes Mom..”she answered. I went out of her room and head towards downstairs, I grab Chaerin’s key on the table and head out of the door. I saw her car and unlock it, I open the back door and took my bags, I close it but saw someone standing beside me

 

“T-Timothy..”I said, I’m shock to see him here

 

“Sandara please, We need to talk..”he said, I shook my head and starts to walk-away  but if let his hand on me and pulls me

 

“Let go of me!”I said and push him with all my might but he’s too big for me

 

“I thought you’re going to leave her huh? You said that we will be together”

 

“What the hell are you talking about?! I won’t leave my wife and daughter!”I answered, I manage to free myself and run towards the door but this man is way too fast for me, he stood in front of me blocking my way to the door

 

“You’re such a liar! You promised me that and now you’re saying that you won’t leave them!!”he shouted at me, I move a few step back and I saw him follow me

 

“Wait ‘til I’ll tell Chaerin that you are not the real Sandara, Sunhee!”I furrow my eyebrows at him and was about to say something when I saw Sandara standing behind him

 

“If I can’t have you, nobody can!”he push me and hold both of my arms, It hurts so much that I cry

 

“Please stop, you’re hurting me..”I said

 

 

UPSTAIRS

 

Seungri is playing with Darin when Chaerin woke up, she felt that Sandara was not beside her

 

“Where’s Sandara, Oppa?”she asked her brother but before Seungri can answer, they saw one of their maids running towards them

 

“Miss Chae, Sir Seungri..”she said, Mrs. Lee was with them, they went to buy some foods at the grocery

 

“What’s wrong, Yuna?”Chaerin asked her

 

“Come quick, we found Miss Sandara lying on the floor outside..”she said and without a word, Chaerin run towards downstars, she saw her Mom squeezing Sandara’s hand, her head on top of her Mom’s lap

 

“What happened?”she asked and look at her wife

 

“I don’t know honey, we saw her lying on the floor. Better call Dr. Steven quick..”her mother said, Chaerin then saw a blood on her wife’s head

 

“Oh dear god, no..”she said
