Chapter 18: A day

If I Had a Lover

Sungjae blankly looking at his coffee, Ilhoon looking at him while shaking is head,

“Are you crazy?, you shouldn’t do that, ahhh..” he said.

“She said that it’s the last, she want to make it clear to him to not go near her anymore…she want to make it clear so he won’t cross the line..,” Sungjae explained.

“You said that, but I know that you are worried now…when they’ll meet..?,” he asked.

“Today, she get a day off from her company..so they will spend a day started from an hour ago..,” he said while searching for Sooyoung’s messege, “it’s from her,” he said then give his handphone to Ilhoon, Ilhoon read that..

It’ll start soon, it won’t take long..

I hope you still trust me…let’s meet after this end..

“Does she even love you?,” he suddenly asked that.

“What do you mean?, I understand her..it’s because she doesn’t want to have any lingering feeling toward him, so she want to completely end it.., don’t say those thing to my girlfriend, ” he said then drink his coffee.

“It’s not what I mean, if she really love you, she won’t asked that kind of thing to you, to her boyfriend..because it’ll hurt her boyfriend, am I right?, ” he asked.

“Just stay quiet..I trust her..”

They meet in a café near the stadium, Sooyoung waiting for him it’s already 15 minutes, but he still doesn’t come,

“Sorry for making you wait,” he said, “let’s go..if we are here, someone will notice me,” he wear hat and mask.

“I think if you wear like that it’ll be obvisious that you are a celebrity..” she said.

“I’m not celebrity, I’m an athlete,” he answered.

“Then, why you wear something like that?,” she asked, “and if you that afraid if someone will notice you, why we do this?,” she asked.

“Because I really want to spend a day with you..,” he said while walking to the stadium, “it’s place that I like.., let’s go..” when he want to hold her hand, she protested,

“Wait!!, before that, I want to say to you that there is no skinship..I’ll do what you want but there is no skinship..okay,” she said, Minhyuk smiling to her, “okay?,” she said once again because there is no responsed from Minhyuk.

“Okay.., there is no skinship..” Minhyuk sit down on one of the seat in the stadium, “do you remember that you watching my last match as high school athlete here?, this is mom’s seat, the seat that I sit on right now is hyung’s seat..yours is here,” he said while point out the seat next to his mom’s seat, “sit down..” he said while smiling to her, Sooyoung sit on the seat,

“Why suddenly we came here?,” she asked.

“My mom asked about you, about our relationship…want to meet her today?,” suddenly he asked that, “she come here with my brother…I told her that I’ll meet you today, so she came..”

“Why suddenly your mother?, what am I going to say to her when we meet?, you didn’t say anything to her that we broke up?,” she asked.

“Hmm..I said once, but I guess, she forgot it. When I come home from abroad, she suddenly asked if I’ll meet you after this.., she told me that you never come to our house while I’m not in Korea..”

“Then..just told her once again that we already break up…do you want me to say that to your mother?, why?,” she asked.

“Because she look happy everytime she talking about you..so I couldn’t told her that we broke up..”

“Wah..after said sorry about everything you did in the past, you make another mistake..you make me angry once again, Lee Minhyuk-ssi,” not long after she said that, suddenly a voice,

“Did he make you angry, Sooyoung-ah,” Minhyuk’s mother come, it’s make her in awkward position.

“Just say it here once again, you not me..it’s not a big problem, right?,” she said wit a low voice, “hello, mother..” she greet his mother.

“Come here, I really miss you,” she said, she sit on wheel chair, “why you never come to our house?,” she said while hugging her.

“I’m sorry..,” that’s the only words that can come out from at that time. While Minhyuk look hesitant to tell his mother about their relationship,

“It’s really good to see you again…let’s have talk next time..for today..spend it with my son..,” she said, when she is about to leave them, Sooyoung call her again,

“Mother..actually..we already broke up years ago,” she said, Minhyuk shocked when he heard that, “today..we meet because we want to end it clearly..so I hope..,” before she finished her words, Minhyuk suddenly stop her,

“Mom, you can go first..I’ll tell you everything when I’m home, okay?,” he said while turning her mother wheel chair,

“I remember he told me about it, but because I don’t really want it happen, I keep talking about you to him. Because it was really happy to see him dating you..because you are such a sweet girl, I really want both of you end up as a married couple..can you comeback to him?,” she asked the question that make Sooyoung more shocked,

“What are you saying, mom?,” Minhyuk asked, “it’s imposible, she already has boyfriend that will make her happy. Hyung, ” he give a sign to his hyung.

“Let’s go home, mom,” his hyung said, they leave Sooyoung and Minhyuk,

“Haa..what is this?, it’s make me want to end your wish here…,” she said then about to leave him, but then he grab her hand, “no skinship..,” she said then pull her hand.

“Okay..sorry for this, I don’t know that it would be like this, it’s look like she didn’t remember anything about it..,” he tried to explained everything to her, “okay, we’ll go to the next place,” he said then both of them leave the stadium and go with Minhyuk’s car,

“We’ll go to Han river..I promise, I won’t make you angry again..,” he said then start the car.

They go there, Minhyuk asked his manager to buy something for them for lunch,

“What an uncomfortable lunch…anywhy thank you,” Sooyoung said then eat the lunch box that his manager bought for them.

“Sorry..my manager don’t let me go anywhere in day time with a woman..,” he said then eat his lunch box.

“It’s okay..I understand..you are hot right now..” she said then smiling.

“It’s my first time seeing you smiling since today start…”

“Because I don’t have any reason to smiling,” she replied it.

“It’s make me hesitant to go to the next place..I’m worried that you’ll angry again to me…”

“You promised me that you won’t make me angry again..what is this now?, where are we going to go?.”

“I’ll let you know leter.., finish your food, I’ll tell you something after this..,” he said finish his lunch box quickly, not long after that, Sooyoung’s phone vibrating, her boyfriend calling,

“Hello,” she said happily.

“Are something good happen?, why you sound so happy?,” Sungjae said.

“Because my boyfriend call, I’m happy..what are you doing?,” she asked, “fighting for today, let’s meet leter..bye..” then she end the call, Minhyuk starring at her,

“I wish, you won’t pick up any phone call after this..” he said, “the thing I want to tell you is..the real reason behind our break up..”

“Why suddenly talking about that…I don’t want to hear it..I granted your wish not because I want to hear your reason about that day..I just want to make a clear line between us..”

“I just want to say it..I couldn’t do long distance relationship..I always imagine something negative about you..like, you’ll having another relationship or you’ll forget everything about me..and I’m afraid that I’ll do it too..so I decided to end it before it became true..,” Sooyoung smiling after heard that,

“And you make an innocent person as your reason to break up with me…then I’m really happy now, you made a good decision,” she said, “thank you..you really make it clear now..for me long distance relationship is not that difficult, as long as we trust each other, and not stop communication between both of parties. You are not a bad man, looking for girlfriend who will always next to you, who will always looking at you..”

“It’s not a total lied about I’m being jealous with Sungjae back then…because I were really jealous of him, now I’m more jealous. Another confession, back then I’m spying you through someone, your step sister. She always reported to me about what you do..who you meet..”

“Haa…we already lacked trust back then..eventhough I always mail you almost everyday, you stilll spying me..okay, I understand now..because you really make it clear, now, I can smile when I meet you.., so, should we go..I’m not comfortable in this car too long..just two of us here..,” Minhyuk smiling to her.

“If I’m Sungjae, you’ll became more comfortable, right?,” he , she responsed him with smile, “the next place, there is someone who really want to meet you…your mom,” he said.

“What?, so you said that the thing that make you worried that I’ll angry again to you..if you know it, why we still go there..?, ” she asked.

“Because she really want to meet you…she want to talk to her daughter..”

“She was the one who said to me that she has a new family, so that time was the last time she talk to me..why suddenly she said she want to talk to me?,” she asked.

“Actually she came to your father funeral, just she didn’t want to show up in front of you.., you won’t regret it..I do it because I know that you want to meet her too..right?. And, how can you’ll smile brightly when you meet me if you still hate your mother, who became my aunt?,” they arrived to the place, a mini café near a park, “I’ll wait for you here..she is there,” he is pointing at someone who waiting inside the café, Sooyoung getting out from the car and walking slowly to the café, her mom smile when she saw her daughter after long time,

“What you want to say to me?,” Sooyoung asked, the pain from her words before still there, she couldn’t smile brightly while seeing her mother,

“Sorry for not comforting you when your father leave you..sorry because I didn’t have courage to come to you at that time..I know it’s too late, but I really want to meet you and say this..,” she said.

“Is it the last day we’ll meet like this?,” Sooyoung asked.

“You want to meet mom again after this?,” she asked.

“Then, mom, do you want to meet me again after this?,” Sooyoung asked her back, “since back then, I really want to meet you, although you had a new family, but you were the one who make line..and I couldn’t crossed it, right?. So, now, do you want to remove that line?,” she asked.

“I’m really sorry for said those rude words to you…I know it’s really difficult to forgive me..mom will do it slowly..mom will meet you frequently..if you ask mom to meet, then mom will come to you..hmm??,” after heard that suddenly Sooyoung cry, her mom come near to her then hug her, “you must be really in pain. Mom really sorry..sorry…,” they talked to each other, “he is waiting for you there..someday, come with your boyfriend, I really want to talk to him,” she said, Sooyoung shocked she know that Sooyoung have a boyfriend, “why?, I know so much about my daughter..I know that you and Minhyuk already break up..now, you are dating someone..I know who is he, so bring him to me, I want to ask a lot of thing to him,” Sooyoung smile to her then once again hug her mom, “call me if you want to meet, okay..,” she said, they arrived near Minhyuk’s car, “Minhyuk-ah, I’ll treat you..thank you, go to have dinner..,” she said while open the car door for Sooyoung, “bye,” the car leave the café.

“Thank you,” she said that, “after this, I’ll completely smile without any burden when I meet you..” she said, “I think it’s a good decision to have aa day spend with you..” then she is smiling.

“Now, the last place. I reserved here,” he said after they arrived in a restaurant, not that crowd, just some people there, it’s really quiet with so many trees,

“It’s steak..you still remember that I liked meat..haha,” she said then sit on the chair.

“Finish your food, after this I’ll do something that crosse line..,” he said something that make her scared all of sudden.

“Don’t make that kind of face in front of me…, just eat..,” she said to him, while eating they talking, “after this, I won’t be awkward if I invite you to my wedding party..”

“You’ll marry him?, if you’ll marry him soon, don’t invite me..if you marry him next year or two years again..you can invite me..I don’t want to come to my ex alone..I must come with someone, haha..” after heard that they laugh together. Then suddenly he grab her hand, “I crossed the line..just for once,” he said, begging.

“Yah..,” she tried to pull her hand, but he held her hand tightly.

“Just for a minute, after this I won’t do that..tomorrow I’ll meet your boyfriend, I’ll say sorry to him..”

He held her hand about a minute then let go of her hand, “thank you for letting me spend a day with you..we could resolved our misunderstanding..”

“After this, explain to your mother so I can greet her even after we broke up..okay?,” she give him an okay sign, then he replied it with smile, “thank you, Minhyuk oppa.., I can call you that right?, you are two years older than me..an older brother..hehe..”

“I’ll be happy if you call me that, but what if your boyfriend know?, I think he’ll get angry..”

“I’m happy if he angry or jealous, because he look cute when he did that, haha,” he said then drink her wine.

“Don’t said those kind of words in front of me..”

It’s already late, Sungjae waiting for Sooyoung in park near their apartement, he can’t sit comfortably, when he saw a car, he immediately stand up and walking to the car, the car stop next to him, he can saw her face and Minhyuk’s face,

“Aren’t you getting out?,” he asked while knocking the car’s window, “Minhyuk-ssi, open the door..”

Sooyoung getting out from Minhyuk’s car, Minhyuk waving his hand to her and to Sungjae,

“Thank you for today,” he said.

“Did you said that to me or to my girlfriend?,” Sungjae asked.

“Why?, I said that to both of you..thank you, I’ll settle the other thing with you tomorrow, okay Dr. Yook,” he said then smiling to them, then he leave them.

After he leave them, she suddenly became clinging to him,

“I’m really miss you, oppa..” she said that.

“What happen today?, why suddenly calling me oppa?.”

“Why?, you don’t want me to call you oppa?, but I called him oppa..,” she said while pointing to the direction where Minhyuk leave.

“What?, why?,” he asked, “then call me honey..,” after he said that, she shocked by that word.

“Honey???, what kind of honey?, that sweet honey?, hahaha,” she .

“What were you doing with him this whole day?,” he asked.

“We have done many things, we solved many misunderstanding..hehe, he also held my hand..so sudden, I couldn’t avoid it..” after heard that, suddenly he grabbing her hand,

“I’ll clean his track here, did he touch your cheek?, or rubbing your hair?, I’ll clean all his track on your body..” he said that.

“It’s sound dirty, don’t say those words again..isshh..,” she run away from him.

“Why??, I say that to my girlfriend though,” he .
