THE SUN

He is in front of his father now, waiting for his answer,

“Why do you think that I’ll grant it?,” his father asked.

“Because you are not a bad dad, right?. Although you ever have a thought to throw him away from our family’s boat,” he answered.

“People don’t change easily, me too. You never know that your father still have that kind of thought until now, throw your hyung away. But why you asked me to announce to the public that me having an illness son,” he said without even looking at him.

“And you make that illness son became more in pain by that behavior, dad. He is getting better now, just say to the world that you have a strong willed son, he has strong will to live because he really want to see your smily face one day and I’m helping him to get that. Now, if you don’t want to grant that wish…I’ll make a U-turn, I’ll leave my current position in the hospital right now to work somewhere nice, I get so many offer from a big company dad, you know that?. And I know you won’t give up on me easily, because if the heir of your foundation not your own son, maybe you’ll lost so many investment.., I know about the truth..that much, dad,” he said, “do you think you are the one who can do that kind of thing?, after working in your hospital…I became really good at dealing,” he said, then he decided to leave him, but before that,

“Could you give me some time?, your dad need sometime to comeout with the best reason too, right?. Why I hide him all the time…why he couldn’t do anything in public all the time…, I need to give them the best reason too when I decided to do it, right?,” he said, then Jonghyun smiling,

“Then, good luck for that, dad…I hope you’ll get the best reason that doesn’t hurt our whole family. Do you want to do it in your birthday party next week?,” Jonghyun said, his dad just smile and Jonghyun finaly leave his father’s room. In front of the building, Ahyoung waiting for someone and wanting a good news from that someone,

“Did I make you wait too long?,” he asked, Ahyoung shaking her head, “let’s go somewhere, ” he said then grab her hand, “I think I’ll get that gift for hyung, ” he said then both of them smile to each other. That day, after getting a gift from his dad, they goes to meet Ahyoung parent in florist, Ahyoung mom look doesn’t believe who is the one who stand next to her daughter,

“You said that you want to introduce someone, is he the someone?,” she asked, “isn’t he Mirae Foundation’s heir, I saw him in newspaper, and isn’t he the one who come to court that day as a witness?,” she asked to confirm.

“Hmm..he is the one. Your daughter is so capable mom, someone like him..want to date your daughter,” she said then smile, but then she earn hit from her mom, “ah..why??,” she asked.

“I heard he was preparing his engagement, but then it was cancelled, it was because of you?,” she asked, Ahyoung eyes became wide after heard that, “why you did this?, when you know that he was preparing for his engagement…”

“Mom it’s not like that…, let me explain it..hmm?.” But then Jonghyun bow to her while saying he’s so sorry,

“You did leave the woman you going to marry because of her?,” she asked,

“It’s not like that. The one who prepare for the engagement wasn’t me but my mom and her mom, I disagreed on their decision that I must marry someone not because of love, but because that someone is my parent’s friend’s daughter. Then they suddenly preparing for our engagmnet without my agreement. It’s not Ahyoung’s fault to make decision to accepted me, it’s not my fault too to make the decision to not marry someone who I don’t love, it’s not that woman fault too, because she want to marry someone who she want to became her husband. The three of us just want to be happy with someone, I choosed Ahyoung to be that someone, Ahyoung choosed me to be that someone, and that woman although she still doesn’t find that someone, but she said she will find it soon or later,” he explained so her mother won’t be misunderstanding the situation.

“Why are you being like this, suddenly?,”her dad who silent all this time join their conversation, “they love each other, there is nothing wrong withthat, right?. Both of them, the woman and him already decided to cancel the engagement, no need to get angry like that. Want o have drink?your name is..?,” he asked.

“Jonghyun, Hong Jonghyun,” Jonghyun said while bowing, Ahyoung pushing him from behind and sit next to each other, her mom going to get some drink for them, Ahyoung following her from behind,

“I won’t make you disappointed, I promise,” Ahyoung said while give her mom a hug.

“Just let me go, give it to them..,” she said then giving the beverages to Ahyoung, Ahyoung take it then smile to her mother,

“Thank you mom…”

In the night, Ahyoung who just come in broadcast room, suddenly get drag by the PD,

“It’s you, right?. I heard that their engagement get canceled, is it really because of you, Ahyoung-ah?,” she asked about it all of sudden, the news about it already out a week ago, but she just making fuss about it right now, “I just remember about that day when Hyeri-ssi come as guest to our radio. She talking about him right, Hong Jonghyun…”

“Mom and you have the same thought. Then..doyou think it start from long time ago that I became their third wheel?. Maybe yes..maybe no that I became their third wheel since long time ago,” she answered simply and leave her,

“Yah..I just don’t want your image became bad because of that. You are being loved as a lovely and nice DJ, but then if a news broke out..you became their third wheel, what are you going to do then?, you will lose this job…”

“You sure have so many worries. For now…I won’t thinking that far.., okay..let’s start now, PD-nim..,” she said then back to the broadcasting room. To tell you the truth, I was afraid when I decided to hold his hand, because there are so many things that won’t allow us to be happily ever after, but then…I still want to hold his hand, his warm hand…his trustfull hand…

“For the last song…song that can comfort our listeners who have work hard today…Davichi-Love is to give. Have a nice sleep, and..for today you have work hard,” she said then put down the headphone, the PD looking at her and give her sign that she want to talk again, Ahyoung leave broadcast room and the PD following her from behind,

“Let’s talk about it tomorrow, okay?. It’s already this late, you want to drive me home?,” she asked, the PD shaking her head, “then let’s talk about it tomorrow,” she said then leave her. On her way home, someone call her and asking about something,

“Yah..why you don’t tell me about it?,” it’s Soojin who called her, “you said that I’m your sister, but why you don’t let me know that you having a new boyfriend, on top of that it’s Jonghyun…,” she said it loudly.

“No need to speak like that, unnie. Where are you now?,” she asked.

“Just comeback from work, both of you should treat me..you know that I played the big role in your relationship…,” she said.

“Big role?, what kind of role?,” she aksed her back.

“Ha..hey, if I didn’t insist to re-open your brother case, you won’t meet him, never meet him. And I know it from the start that he like you when you still don’t know about it, I encouraged him to say that he like you so many time,” she said so proundly,

“Ha..and you really pround about that?, okay, let’s eat together someday, with Mingook too,” she said then end the call. When she is about to reached her apartement someone grab her hand from behind, make her reflect to slap that person,

“It’s me,” he said after get slapped by her, it’s Jonghyun. He is touching his cheeck, “it’s hurt, you know?,” he said.

“I’m sorry, why you didn’t call my name and make me startled like that. is it really hurt?,” she asked while touching his cheeck, and suddenly he’s making cute face,

“What are you doing?, it’s not like you,” she said, “ahh..just now, Soojin unnie called me, she want us to treat her because she played a big role in our relationship, she said like that…”

“Okay, let’s hang out someday,” he said then grab her hand, “tomorrow is d-day, dad decided to give my brother his gift tomorrow,” he said then smile to her, then she hug him,

“You’ve work hard, congratulation..,” then she rubbing his back, “he must be happy,” she said.

“You should come too…and I’ll announce our relationship too.”

“I can’t…your family just announce the cancelation of your engagement, it’ll be strange if I came there as your girlfriend. My image will be bad then, let’s do it secretly first, if the best time come..we’ll let everyone know about it, okay?,” she said.

“Is it okay for you if we do it secretly?.”

“It’s okay for now, I just don’t want to be someone who thinking about her happiness. Your family won’t be happy if they see me too, right?. So someday...”

“Until that day, you’ll stay the same, right?,” he asked.

“The same, I think not,” she said, then he pushing her body after heard that, “I think it’ll be more and more closer than now, I think I’ll more and more love you than now,” she said, then he smile to her while punching her cheeck, “it hurt”

“You can say those things too?, hmm, I guess you already have some experience, right?.”

“How can I have it if my first boyfriend suddenly leave me like that without explanation. Since then, I don’t have boyfriend. I learn it from drama,” she said.

“Why suddenly bring up about your first boyfriend here?,” he asked.

“Are you jealous now?, my first boyfriend is your hyung, don’t be jealous…,” she said, then he’s smiling,

“You know..after knowing that he get invited to dad’s birthday party..he is busy to choose the best clothes. He is really happy now,” he said.

She smile to him and rubbing her head, he suddenly became like a kid,

“Ahyoung texted me, she said fighting to me. She must know about it, right?.”

“Hmm..she know it, she is happy after knowing that you’ll get your freedom,” he smile to him, then a bodyguard come in to the room and said that it’s their time to come out, “okay, hyung. Let’s go,” he said then push his wheel chair to come out to the public,

As you see now, his body is really thin, it’s because of his illness,, but now he is getting better. I’m really sorry for him because it’s really late to him to say hello to the world, but I think it’s better than never. So, my son Hong Jonghoon, say hello to the world, to the people that you see for the first time,” he said then Jonghoon waving his hand,

“Hello, I’m Hong Jonghoon, it’s really nice to meet all of you.” Hyeri who come to the party look surprised with the sudden announcement,

While Ahyoung already in broadcast station, she is watching the live news from the birthday party with the PD, the PD looking at her,

“Yah..do you know about this?, you don’t look surprised at all..,” she asked.

“Hmm..maybe. I think I’m the first person outside their family who know about the secret, let’s go..prepare for our broadcast,” she said then leave her like that.

“Are you that special for them?, why?, why are you so lucky with man?,” she asked loudly, make her turn her face and run back to her to close ,

“What are you talking abou now?, I’ll tell you everything after broadcast, okay?. So, for now shut up your mouth, PD-nim,” she said while dragging her to broadcasting room, but then her phone rang, this time the one who always busy with his work suddenly calling her,

“Why?,” she asked, it’s Mingook who call her.

“I attended the party, and heard their shocking announcement about their family. Do you know it from the first?,” he asked.

“Hmm..I know it, but not from the first. When I meet him after years, I recognized him as Jonghyun who was my boyfriend, but he isn’t that Jonghyun. ”

“So, the one who was your boyfriend is Jonghyun’s twin, not Jonghyun?. Wah..daebak. But why you know him as Jonghyun not Jonghoon?,” he asked.

“Why you have so many question?, let’s meet later, okay. It’s not that comfortable to talk like this,” she say, then he end his call and come in to the broadcasting room, all the eyes looking at her, “ah..why?. did you said something to them?,” she asked to the PD-nim.

“What should I say to them?, you became the third wheel or you became someone special for the twin?. Which one?,” she asked, make Ahyoung more confused, why they suddenly mad at her,

“So you told them about both of it?, okay, then why all of you look so mad at me?, did it effect to your life?, our radio still did well until today…even after the cancelation, but why all of you behave like this to me. The way you look at me like I’m a bad girl,” she said then sit down on her cahir and put in her head phone, “let’s start now, before my mod gone worst,” she said, the PD sit next to her and give her explanation for tonight broadcast. After radio broadcast, all of staff of Starlight radio say sorry to Ahyoung and said that they won’t do it again later, “okay, then let’s meet again tomorrow, with smile..,” she said then waving her hand to them while leaving the broadcast room. When she is coming out from building, she meet Hyeri there, not exactly concidience because Hyeri said that she came to meet her,

“Because I want to know something,” she said, “so, the one who you dated in the past not Jonghyun but Jonghoon?,” she asked after asked Sooyoung to sit in the lobby,

“Hmm..I dated Jonghoon but I didn’t know it that the one who I dated is him because he introduced his name to me as Jonghyun not Jonghoon. I know it months ago?,” she explained to her.

“Wah..it’s really big secret, why he just do it now?. ”

“It’s a gift from Jonghyun…, freedom gift…maybe it’s because today is the best time out of those days?. I leave first,” she said then leave Hyeri, “ah...did you find your happiness?,” she asked.

“Why you asked me about it?, you want to find it for me?,” she asked her back.

“You want me to do it for you?. Okay, I’ll help you to find it, because you help me too,” she said then they smile to each other.

“Why I must call you when you need most of your time for your family last night. I just want to call you, but you called me first,” she said then a car stop in front of her, the owner of the car say hello to her, “ohh..wait,” she said.

“Who is he?, the one who said hello just now?,” Jonghyun asked.

“My stalker?, hehe. I’ll go somewhere, let’s meet after that, okay,” then she end his call,

“Wahh..who?, stalker?. Ah, that boy, Mingook,” he said after throw his phone, but then he take it back and call someone, “nonaa, give me Mingook’s phone number..,” he said.

“Yah..you call the wrong person, how could I know his number, ask your girlfriend, I’m really busy right now. You know?,” it’s Soojin, they became closer as time passed, “I’ll meet someone today, so I want to prepare it carefully, don’t disturb me..,” she said then end the call.

Ahyoung smiling while reading Soojin messege “I know it, he told me last night,” she said and take a deep breath then looking at the one who drive the car, the man who drive the car looking at her too,

“Why?,” he asked, “if your boyfriend know that you looking at me like that, he’l beat me up,” he said.

“Should I help you to find your happiness?, I’m a good cupid, one of my customer satisfied with my job,” she said while pointing at Soojin messege.

“Why so sudden..yah I’m still shocked right now..because of last night news, what was that?,” he said, then the car stop in front of prison, “we are here..to meet my happiness. Let’s go,” he said then come out from the car, they meet his brother today,

“Of course, a happiness not always love for opposite . Family is the true happiness,” she said, Mingook smile after heard that. Here he is, someone who get double shocked because of Hong family news, he keep questioning Ahyoung,

“So, the one who got hit that day is not Jonghyun but Jonghoon,” he said it once again the same words, “wah..I still couldn’t believe what I read this morning..,” he said, “you know it from the beginning?.”

“No, I know it in the process of my brokther’s case investigation, ” she said then taking out something from her bag, “it’s the new novel from editor, he said that it’ll published next month, before that he let you to read it first,” Ahyoung said while letting him know about the book, “excusme, could you pass this to him,” she said to the one of the security guard there, but then he said that it’s not allowed, “you can check it first before give it to him, there is nothing wrong with this book,” she said, then the security standing to take the book from her, not long after sitting, someone call her, “ah..spend your time together, I’ll leave first,” she said then leave them, “why?,” Jonghyun is the one who calling her.

“Where are you right now?,” he asked, “it’s dangerous if you go around with a stalker.”

“What are you talking about?, don’t be so childish,” she said “my bussnis here finished, so let’s meet,” she said while walking toward the main gate, “let’s have lunch together,” she just come out but then a car stop in front of her, “H..WHT IS THIS?,” she screamed because of shock, she saw the one who drive the car and it make her double shock, she didn’t ask anything just sit next to him and keep looking at him,

“Why?, is there something on my face?. Just ask what you want to know, don’t look at me with that kind of face again,” he said while driving the car, “ah..okay okay. Soojin tell me about it that if you meet Mingook then it’s all about his brother, so if both of you going to somewhere..then the first destination that pop out from her head was this prison,” he explained to her, and she just smile while walking passing him, he looking at her strangely, “I’m here..!,” he said.

“So what?, aren’t we going to go?, why are you still standing there?,” Ahyoung asked, Jonghyun run to her and grab her hand, not long after she sit in his car, she get messege from Mingook. After read that, she is looking at Jonghyun,

“Do something to make me feel better,” he said because it’s suddenly became so quiet, Ahyoung shaking her head, “why you became this close to someone who was your stalker,” he asked.

“Haa…why talking about that now?, are you that jealous?,” Ahyoung asked.

“Of course, there is a high chance that he still love you because he followed you for this passed years. As your boyfriend, isn’t it natural that I’m jealous over it?,” he asked make her taking a deep breath.

“What a kid!, Hong Jonghyun-ssi…even if he still love me, he never confess to me or talking about love while he is with me because he know that I have a boyfriend, a very protective boyfriend who get mad easily. Even if you doubt him, how can you doubt me too?,” he suddenly looking at her and stop the car, “why?, want to start fighting now?, our first fight?,” she suddenly asked that make him shocked.

“I don’t want to fight, don’t ever talk about fight, we just start it. Soojin-nuna already waiting for us there, so I hope we are in good mood when we reached the restaurant,” he said, but she doesn’t pay attention at him, “Kim Ahyoung,” he said, then she turn her head to face him, and suddenly he kiss her ,

“What was that?,” she asked.

“To make you feel better, don’t get mad again..,” then give her his sweetest smile,

“That’s not cool,” she said then give him a deep kiss, then keep her face close to him, “it’s nice right,” she said then back to her seat again.

“You are good at it, let’s have it again…after meeting Soojin nuna,” he said then grinning.

After meeting Soojin, he parked his car near a beach. They still lying in car while listening to the sound of wave. Then Jonghyun start the conversation,

“I’m sorry..for didn’t letting everyone know that we are dating,” he said.

“It’s okay, I know that’ll make a good mood became bad. I can wait, don’t worry,” she said then looking at his face, “I was liking a guy with the same face as you, is it because there is secret between us making our relationship really awkward back then?,” she asked.

“Was your relationship with my brother awkward?, then it must be true that because of that secret your relationship really awkward, then that accident make it worst,” he suddenly talking about her brother accident, “you must be happy then, there are more than three man who considered you as their sun.” she look confused with what he said,

“What do you mean by more than three men?, who are they?. Mingook…” she asked.

“That name come out first,” he said little bit mad, “your brother and my brother,” then he said.

“You said more than three men…”

“And this person,” he said while putting his hand on his chest, “now, her light is just for me..there won’t be any other than me,” he said, then putting his hand on her cheecks, “why my sun is so pretty, ”

“You sound like drunk, Jonghyun-ssi..,” she said then grab his hand, “if I’m the sun, I’ll be the one who make you warm, right?. But now, you are the one who make me warm, your hand is so warm,” she said the close her eyes, “I ever watch a drama, they said if there is a woman who close her eyes in front of a man that mean she is ready for…,” even before Ahyoung finish her words, Jonghyun kiss on her lips, deeply…slowly.

We are sun for each other, because you make me warm when I’m chilling, and I make you warm when you are chilling. Because we always became each other light that lead our legs from darkness to the better place, thank you for coming to me, my sun.

“Maybe it’ll little bit late,” Jonghyun said, they are holding hands,

“What?,” she asked him while playing with his hair.

“Propose..I’ll do it, sweetly someday..,” then she is smiling, then put her hand on the air,
