============================

 

 

Although they weren't 'allowed' to show their affection publicly yet, Minho and Sulli would still find time out of their busy schedule to spend time with each other. Most days, Sulli would hang out or stay the night over at Minho's or either have someone send food over or little things to Sulli 

 

It was Wednesday and the restaurant  wasn't that busy so Sulli would occasionally be at the back in her office or even the kitchen checking up on things and also have a small chit chat with Victoria

 

It finally came to place that Victoria has been noticing Sulli occasionally look at her phone and would be smiling like a weirdo, Victoria has actually been seeing this for the past few days but never had the time to ask why is she like that 

 

"What's so interesting on your phone? You're constantly smiling at it. Are you texting someone that I should know about?" Victoria finally asked, startling Sulli a bit. Sulli turns off her phone and looks up at Victoria, smiling embarrassingly 

 

"Nothing unni." Sulli shyly answered, blushing a bit. Victoria looked suspiciously at her, she knew that Sulli was hiding something from her and she needs to know what it is 

 

"Spill it Ssul" Victoria demanded, Sulli looked down a bit, feeling awkward. Sulli contemplated if she should tell her or not, she also thought that she needs Minho approval too. Instead, Sulli stayed quiet and didn't say anything at all making Victoria impatient and anxious 

 

"Are you going to say anything or do I have force it out do you?" Victoria said, Sulli sighed defeatedly. If she won't say anything, Victoria will continue to bug her until she says something 

 

To Sulli, Victoria is technically her second mother. Victoria has always been there for her, giving her advice, comfort, care, basically what a mother gives. Sulli couldn't lie to her even she wanted to, she just can't. Victoria has seen her through her weakness and she's always encouraging Sulli to be strong and just deal with what life throws 

 

"Unni, you know that I love you right?" Sulli started out by saying, Victoria chuckles, she still was impatient and sweet talking to her won't subdue her anxiousness 

 

"Okay so here's the thing. Over the past few weeks, I've been seeing someone that either maybe a bad thing or a good thing. It honestly just depends on how you see and interpret it but anyways, I've come to realize that I've been lying to myself over the past year. I tried to move on, I really did but it just didn't want me to. I've poured all my emotions, tears, everything and I couldn't let go of it even though it brought me so much pain. I tried my best but somehow it wasn't enough" Sulli started out, Victoria listened carefully, already having a clue where this is going but she lets her talk 

 

"To sum it all up, me and Minho are back together and are seeing each other again. I know I'm a fool and all but I couldn't help myself but just do it. I'm sorry if I somehow disappointed you with this" Sulli finally let out. Victoria knew it, she sensed it once she noticed that smile of Sulli's as she was staring at her phone almost every hour of the day, possibly every second too 

 

"There's nothing to be sorry about. If you're really happy with your decision then I can't stop you. It's your love life, you can love and forgive who you want. I have by no means rights of controlling that. If this is what you choose, then be it. But once Minho ever does something like that again, I'm sorry but this time, I'll really do something. Remember that" Victoria said, smiling at the end. Sulli felt really emotional, tears were literally swelling in her eyes. Immediately, Victoria pulled Sulli into a tight embrace 

 

"Thank you, unni. You're seriously the best." Sulli muffled with her runny nose and teary eyed. Victoria giggles, she tightened her hold as she soothed Sulli's back 

 

A mother figure indeed

 

============================

 

Later that night when Sulli and Minho we're together in bed cuddling with one another talking about the most random things, Sulli eventually decided to tell Minho that Victoria knows about their relationship

 

"Jagi, don't get mad at me, okay?" Sulli said in a low voice, Minho said nothing but simply nodded and let her continue 

 

"Earlier today, I was talking with Victoria unni and she happened to notice me smile at my phone for no apparent reason. She asked me who was I texting and all. It eventually lead me to spilling to her that we got back together" Sulli said, Minho looked at her and started to smile 

 

"That's good to hear. It is a bit hard to stay on the low side about us, at least she knows it and that we don't have to necessarily hide anymore. I'm glad that you told her because sooner or later I would tell her firsthand" Minho said, Sulli smiled. Everything is going perfectly well 

 

"And she somehow threatened me. Well more like you" Sulli said, finishing off with a giggle. Minho looks at her confuse, what could it be? 

 

"She said that if you do anything like that again, she'll really do something about it. So please if you value our relationship, I beg you to not do anything that could jeopardize it" Sulli said, almost pleading for it, Minho started chuckling, Minho kissed the top of her head and hugged her tighter 

 

"I've learned my mistakes. I wouldn't dare do that again. If I dare loose you again, it will be the end of me" Minho said, Sulli cringes, oh the sweet words 

 

"I'm counting on those words to be true" Sulli teased, Minho chuckles as he nodded his head 

 

As everything was slowly coming to happy ending, there's always the concern of it being changed. 

 

Will their happiness last long or their happiness now is only temporary?
