Chapter 29
Ridiculous PromiseFew hours later in the morning...
Hyun wake up in confuse. He feel missing something. Then he sit and just blinking his eyes for a while. He wonder why this house is so quiet. But then he remember that his parents aren't with him anymore. But he sure he's not alone last night, then who's with him last night...?
He see his clothes scattered in mess. Then he see his photos album on the floor. Then he see something suspiscious under his blanket. He unveil his blanket, then he see red stain on his white bed cover. It's red like... blood. He tilt his head in confuse. He scratch his unitchy head. Then suddenly he remember... Sojung!
Meanwhile Sowon is cooking breakfast in the kitchen. She look fresh. She wearing denim hot pants and white loose shirt in roll up sleeves, with hair tied in messy bun. Even without make up she look beautiful.
Hyun rushing down the stairs with just pants on, still shirtless. He scanning at entire house, then he hear clink sound on the kitchen, he quickly run to the kitchen. At the time he see Sowon he sigh in relieve. He walk closer to busy-cooking-Sowon who still not realize his existence behind her. His barefoot make him even more unnoticeable.
Sowon gasp in surprise when Hyun hug her from behind all of sudden.
"Please forgive me..." Hyun said it in cracking voice.
Sowon about to burst in tears once she heard it. But she hold it. She bite her below lips, she close her eyes tight then take a deep breath... she patted Hyun's hand that hugging her waist. Then she turn around to face him. She can see his guilty face clearly. She smile at him.
"How can you just wake up and go to the kitchen like this? You even not properly dress. I can see you haven't wash your face yet, right? Breakfast will ready soon. So wash your face then put a clothes on while I'm finish this, okay?" She command him like a mother.
"Go..." she gently push him. Then Hyun go like she told him to do.
Later on the kitchen...
They having breakfast together. Sowon act like nothing happen. But Hyun sure that she just pretending to be okay.
That whole day they spent just two of them on that house. Just talking, read a book, cook and eat together, talking about anything, untill Hyun can't hold it anymore...
"Sojung-ah... stop pretending! I know you dissapoint to me. You can mad at me, you can punish me anything... but just don't pretending that nothing happened last night. Because it already happened. It really happened and I'm so sorry... you already told me before that you want to save 'it' for your true husband. I'm really.. really sorry... for took your 'precious'... " what Hyun said make Sowon can't hold her emotional anymore. She explode, burst in tears. She hit Hyun's chest repeatedly. Hyun let her let go her heart out. Then he hold her tight. Sowon crying sadly in his embrace.
After a while...
Sowon's wail finally stop, but still sobbing while cuddled in Hyun's embrace. He caress her head gently, soothing.
"I'm sorry. You are right. I am a coward. I love you so much... so much 'till it hurts a lot
