Author's note:   Hello again. I know the story bores you since there isn't a lot of romance but I am building there relationship first because I don't feel like rushing into things you know. Because, let's face it, in reality love is complicated right hehehe.... Anyway just stay with me till the end. I am not really a romantic person so maybe it's also a reason why it took a while for me to get there. Anyway here's another boring update for you guys. Thank you and enjoy reading.   ---------------------------------------------   CHAPTER 16  
"Hey, gwaenchana? You've been really quiet. Don't worry too much, we should be happy that Kwang Soo is finally awake." Joong Ki told Ji Hyo who was sitting quietly on the car.    He knew that she didn't want to leave the hospital yet but his cousin is right. She looks pale and thinner from all the worries. He was concerned for her well being too. It hurts him still because he likes her too much but she loves him. He knew even before she knew herself.   "I'm okay, and thank you Joong Ki for helping me through this despite the awkwardness of it all. I am beyond relieve to see Kwang Soo awake but I'm too guilty to even talk to him."    As much as she wants to embrace and kiss him when she saw him wake up, the memory of what happened still linger in her mind. Kwang Soo doesn't act like it but what if he is angry with her. All she wants is for their closeness to be as they were before. Her love for him will always be but she won't let it ruin the friendship they have. She can't afford to lose him.   "I won't lie to you, it hurts me still. Feelings can't be erase just like that but that's life and I... I need to move on."   "I'm sorry Joong Ki. If I knew how I felt from the start, none of this would have happened. Kwang Soo won't be in the hospital and I wouldn't have hurt you." Ji Hyo could feel the guilt eating up on her. She hurt both of them, the two persons closest to her heart.   "Let's not talk about that anymore. Anyway, what are your plans? Do you intend Kwang Soo to, you know..."    "I'm not sure yet. This is too sudden. The moment I realize my feelings, Kwang Soo had an accident. I'm still processing but it may sound selfish but I hope you will still be there as a friend."    It's true, she's still contemplating on what to do. Everything seems to be in a fast forward. Now that Kwang Soo is okay, she could have time now to think deeply of the situation. Of course after what she did, it is unlikely that she will confess her feelings to him.    "I think it is best for now to make Kwang Soo comfortable with our friendship again. I can't rewind what happened and take all what I did that hurt him. But I want to just be there for him." She looks sadly at Joong Ki who had a faraway look on his face while driving. She could see that he was hurt and she hates herself for that.    Joong Ki glance at her and smile. He really is a good guy and lucky is the girl he'll eventually end up with.   "Hey, I know what you are thinking by the looks on your face. Don't okay, just don't blame yourself. I'm okay and thank God, Kwang Soo is too so let's not dwell on the negative here okay. We are all given a chance to make things right. It's your decision not to tell him yet, although I don't understand why..."   She tried to cut him off to make him understand but he held his finger on her lips to silence her.   "Sshhh... I didn't say your decision is wrong but I am not the type to conceal my emotions. And after what indeed happened, don't you think life is too short to waste our time hiding what we feel?"    She had no time to react to what he said because they arrived at her house. She thank him and left her thinking of h
