DAY 9

[JUNG JIYEON]

These few days have been really busy for me, I had to finish all the work I have in hand as I’ll be going to Bali with Jiyong tomorrow. I remembered when I told Junhyung I’ll be taking leave for Bali with Jiyong, he seemed really upset and couldn’t focus on his work.

“Junhyung, will you be okay if I’m not around? Can you cope? Call me if you need anything, I’ll assist to you” I asked him as I went to his office to pass him his schedule for the next few days

“Don’t worry, I’ll be okay. Have fun, you haven’t been taking a proper rest ever since you started working for me” I still can see that he is upset

“Erm okay, if that’s the case, I’ll go out for now” I was about to walk out when he suddenly hugged me from behind

“Don’t do this Junhyung, we are in the office”

“I missed your touch, I missed hugging you” I removed his hand and turned around to face him

“Junhyung please? I really wished that our relationship didn’t have to turn out this way. You have been telling me you will figure out about Hara but you haven’t gave me an answer yet. You know about my past relationship, you know I can’t handle this kind of things. I need answers” I think I said it abit too harsh, he was tongue-tied

“I have been busy to ask her about it and you know that. And Hara won’t tell me anything, I asked her about it the day it happened. She just refuses to say anything so even if I were to ask her again, she will not say anything” why did he sound so angry and agitated? It’s not even my fault so why is he showing those temper towards me?

“This is the problem, you don’t try. You asked her one time and you gave up just like that. Yong Junhyung, do you really like me or do you just want to play with me?” now I’m starting to question myself, did he really liked me? Were his feelings for me even real? He can’t even reply me

“What? You can’t reply because I was right? You and Hara had something? You know what, you can find yourself a new manager. I have done all my remaining work and your schedules for the week is done. Thank you for all you have done these 8 years” I walked out, somehow hoping that he will chase me still. But he didn’t, I guess he wasn’t serious at all.

I went to my desk and packed all my belongings into a box, luckily most of them are out for lunch so no one will question me about why I’m leaving. I took my box and walked out and almost bumped into someone, it was Kikwang.

“Jiyeon? Where are you going?” he asked as he took the box from my hands, he looked really confuse

“I quit. I have enough of this Kikwang, he doesn’t care”

“I’ll send you home, don’t reject. Just get into the car” he said as I just get in the car. It was a quiet ride, he probably didn’t want to disturb me as I was resting my eyes. It was not long till we arrived at my apartment

“Thank you Kikwang, do you want to come up for coffee?” I thanked him and invited him for coffee out of gratitude

“Sure, come I’ll take the box. It’s quite heavy” he said as I just smiled at him

“You can leave it on the coffe table and make yourself comfortable” I said as I went to make the coffee

“Here you go” I said and placed in on the table

“Smells good, thank you. Anyway, are you going to tell me what happen?” he asked as I was reluctant to tell him

“C’mon Jung Jiyeon, are we not friends?” I guess I could tell him

“So, you know about the Hara issue right. He didn’t even bother to give me a proper answer about it, he claims that he is too busy to ask. Is he that busy to the extend that he can’t even ask her through text? So I got really angry, I asked if he was just playing with my feelings and he couldn’t even reply me. Then I told him to find a new manager, and I walked out. I thought he would chase me, but he didn’t” I told him everything as I try to control my tears

“Jiyeon ah, Junhyung is not like that. He have been really upset ever since that happened, he really likes you” he tried to explain for Junhyung but I not going to take that

“If he really like me, then why didn’t he said so just now when I asked him if he really liked me?” I asked him but he couldn’t say anything, cant blame him for that. He was just trying to help Junhyung

“I will respect your decision, but call me if you need to know anything or if you don’t have anyone to talk to. I’ll always be your friend even if you stop working for us and don’t ever ignore me if you ever see me outside” Kikwang is really a nice friend, I really appreciate it

“Thank you Kikwang for everything. Throughout these 8 years, you are the second closest to me. You are just like the older brother I need” I said and gave him a friendly hug

“I should be the one thanking you, I think you took care of all us more than we took care of you” he said as we both laughed

“Oh right, can you stay for a while more? I need to pass you something. Just give me a while and I’ll prepare it now”

“Sure, can I watch the TV?” he asked as he pointed to the television

“Yeah sure, go ahead” I said and went to my room and decided to write some small letter for the boys and the other manager oppas. I took out the paper and envelope and started writing. I didn’t want to leave without a word and I have already treated them as my family. They were all really really nice to me.

After the letter-writing and placing it nicely into the envelopes with their names indicated, I opened up my laptop and printed some things out.

“Kikwang ah, sorry for taking so long. Anyway, this letter is for you and please pass the rest of the letters to the boys and manager oppas. And this folder has everything Junhyung needs to know since he can’t find a new manager immediately, please call me if he is unsure of anything” I told him all that I needed to say and passed him everything

“Jiyeon are you sure about this? Can you even bear to leave us?” of course I can’t, I will this bunch so much

“I’ll miss you guys, I promise to visit when I can okay?” I assured him as he just nodded, he needed to leave already so I sent him out.

[YONG JUNHYUNG]

What have I done? Why didn’t I reply her when she asked me? I guessed I really screwed up this time round, but the thing is I really have no time to find out the truth and Hara wouldn’t have told me anything. I went out of my room and everyone was asking where is she.

“Junhyung ah, did Jiyeon went home?” Minhyun asked when Kikwang suddenly walked in

“She quitted. She asked me to pass you guys this” he said as he passed some envelope to all the managers

“Hyung, she told me to pass you this. She printed out some stuffs and inside is everything you need to know when she is gone”

“You met her?” I asked him, and why was Kikwang together with her?

“Yeah, I sent her home. She was carrying a box and it was quite heavy, that’s all” he explained an I just nodded

I just kept draining myself with work, I didn’t know what to do anymore. I didn’t realise it was 10pm already, I guess I could go for drink. I went to the carpark and drove to the nearest pub.

“Scotch whiskey please”

“There you go sir” the waiter said as he placed my drink on the bar

I just kept drinking and drinking, I don’t even know how many cups of whiskey I had already. Why did she have to leave, why cant she believe me? I didn’t do anything wrong…

[KWON JIYONG X GD]

“Jiyong ah, have you packed?” she asked me as she walked into my room while I just gave her my silly smile

“Yah, why is your luggage so messy?” she complaint

“Because I want you to help me pack” I said as she rolled her eyes

“Are you a baby? You are 30 already you know, stil acting like a 18” why do I suddenly feel so old, nevermind as long as I look young

“Am I not your baby?” I asked even though I can predict her answer already, I just wanted to

“Kwon Jiyong, just start packing already”

“You know I’m older than you right, you should call me oppa”

“Jiyong ah, make me call you that and we will call off the one month deal” is she threatening me now? Aish this girl.

“Okay fine I won’t, did Junhyung say anything when you asked for leave?” she is his manager and she took a few days leave so I wonder if he could cope without her around

“I quitted” SHE QUITTED? She said as if like it’s nothing

“Why? Did something happen?” I asked her and make her stop packing

“I just didn’t feel like wasting my time anymore, I don’t even think he likes me in the first place. Maybe he was just playing around” she sounds so cold and heartless while saying that

“Since it’s like that, what’s there to consider? I will be the perfect boyfriend” I said and lie down on her shoulder when she suddenly took a shirt and covered my head

“YAH JUNG JIYEON, YOU MESSED MY HAIR” I took the shirt out and started tickling her when I realised I was on top of her ON THE BED

“L-let’s continue packing” she said and pushed me away

“Are you blushing?” I continue teasing her

“Nope, that’s my make up” as if like I would believe her

We were finally done packing and our flight is the next day at 12pm. I wonder what exactly happened between her and Junhyung, why did she suddenly quit? She is not the type to leave her work behind just like that. I didn’t want to continue asking her as I was afraid that I might ruin her mood. I looked over at her and she was texting someone. If it isn’t me and it’s not Junhyung then who could it be?

“Who are you texting, are you cheating on me?” I joked around

“Nope I’m not, wait I mean we are not even together so how is it consider cheating? And it’s just Mino” so cute how she just blurted out like that and that guy again, why is he always bothering her

“Yah, stop texting him. Talk to me” I said and hugged her waist hoping to get some attention

“He’s just asking me some things, it’s not like I’m going to meet him or anything” she said and finally put her phone away

“Can we go out? It’s only 10pm and I’m bored at home”

“Go where? It would be really troublesome if people recognise you” she said and removed my hand away and made me sit up

“Okay fine, let’s just relax at home then”

Seems like Mino and her are getting really well together, since when do they even text? Now that she have quitted her job, what is she going to do? I really have the urge to ask her what happened between Junhyung and her, they barely lasted 2 months. Even Mino and her lasted for a good 2 years.

“Baby, did Junhyung do anything to you? Why did you suddenly quit?”

“I just feel like he didn’t love me. I asked him just now if he really did like me but he just kept quiet” she sounds really sad but is Junhyung really the kind to play someone’s feeling?

“Do you… still like him?”

“I have been working for him for 8 years, just feel kind of weird now that I quit. Even though we have only been together for a short 2 months but it meant something to me, do you think I’m the kind who doesn’t take my relationship seriously? I wonder if he can cope or manager without me since he can’t find a new manager so fast and also what if the new manager doesn’t know what he like to eat or what he hate to eat or what if he messes up the schedule?” she doesn’t seem to move on yet and she is really worried that he can’t cope and will mess up

“Stop, stop worrying over someone who doesn’t care” I said but she just kept quiet

“Sleep in my room tonight okay? I don’t want you to feel lonely when you are sad. I told you I’ll always be here so now don’t think so much and let’s go and sleep. We have to leave house at 10am tomorrow”

She was asleep already when I went back into my room after showering. Why would someone hurt her? I caressed her face, wishing she would accept me when she can.

Bali with GD?

Junhyung drinking and…

Stay tune xx
