Ji Hyo couldn’t believe that her relationship with Kang Gary could just end without any valid reasons.

“So he is like any other rich guy. He does what he likes with any girl and after that dump the girl for a new girl.” Ji Hyo couldn’t stop her tears. It was ages since she cried.

Ji Hyo looked out at the window. She lifted her head and stared at the crescent moon in the sky. She thought that her tears would stop as long as she lifts her head high. But it didn’t help. Tears just kept gushing out from her eyes. Her face was wet, so was her neck. Bits of her hair was stuck on her face.

She turned back to her dining table to look for some tissue to blow her nose and to clean her face. 

“No more tissue paper and no more toilet paper. All were soaked with my tears. I need to spend extra this month to replenish these.” Ji Hyo laughed bitterly.

“Jin Yin unnie…can you bring me some tissue and toilet paper?” Ji Hyo texted her best friend who were staying 2 doors away from her.

Gary sat up from his bed. The doctor and nurse had just left.

While having dinner with his parents, grandmother and his 2 younger brothers, he felt a sharp pain on his chest and experienced breathing difficulties. The family doctor was called in to examine him.

“Gary Ssi, Doctor Kim says that your blood pressure is OK and you are not suffering from any flu or fever.  Let’s be on the safe side, I would like to suggest that you get a health check tomorrow at the Kim’s clinic.” Butler Yoo Jae Suk said as he handed a cup of hot milk to Gary.

“Gary son, please take Butler Yoo’s advice. Don’t let omma and appa get worried about you.” Gary’s mother held on to Gary’s hand.

“Yes, mother. I will take half day off in the morning for tomorrow and get my health check done.” Gary promised his mother.

"Tomorrow is a Saturday. Just get some rest." Gary's younger brother, Kwang Soo urged, 

“Jae Suk hyung (this is how Gary usually addresses his butler), do you think I am OK?” Gary asked after his mother and Kwang Soo left his room. He is always a healthy young man though he does occasionally smoke and drink. But ever since he started dating Ji Hyo, he had quit smoking. He even did morning exercises with Ji Hyo every weekend and sleep before 11:00 pm every night as long as he did not need to entertain any clients. 

“Gary Ssi, you will be OK. From my experience, I think you are just love sick.” Butler Jae Suk said.

“Love sick? What do you meant by that.” Gary asked as he made he way to the study table. He still have some documents to read through before Monday's meeting.

“I told you about Song Ji Hyo Ssi before dinner starts. You were quiet for the first 5 minutes of the dinner. You just kept stuffing rice into your mouth. The next thing you got the chest pain.” Jae Suk analysed the situation to Gary.

“Ji Hyo……..” Gary mumbled the girl’s name softly. “Oh….my chest…” Gary moaned as a sharp pain flashed across his chest.  

“Gary Ssi, are you OK? Shall I call Doctor Kim to turn back?” Jae Suk quickly held on to Gary.

“I am OK. Perhaps you are right. Perhaps I am love sick. I really miss Ji Hyo very much.” Gary sighed as he continued to press his hand against his c
