CHAPTER 12
REMEMBERING MYOUI [MiChaeng]MINA'S POV
I usually wake up early in the morning to run with Ray. She saw Chaeyoung sleeping on her side.
MN : "Good morning Chaeng, I'm going to take Ray chan for a run. Do you want to go with us?"
CY : "Good morning unnie, you can go ahead. I'm not really in the mood to run."
MN : "Arraso then we'll be back soon. I'll cook breakfast when we arrived."
CY : "Thanks unnie."
MN : "Ray chan let's go :)"
*Barks*
Since Chaeyoung came home she's usually not in the mood for anything in the morning but today feels a little different. Her mood somehow felt heavier than usual.
[At the Park]
MN : "Ray don't scare the kids okay?"
*Barks*
KID 1 : "Noona is that your dog?"
MN : "Yes he is, his name is Ray."
KID 2 : "Omo can we play with him?"
MN : "Of course."
KID 1 : "Does he know any tricks?"
MN : "He does :) You see Ray is really old, he knows a lot of things."
KID 1 : "What a good boy." He patted Ray.
KID 2 : " Unnie you're pretty :)"
MN : "Thank you. You're pretty and his handsome."
KID 1 : "Thank you noona, maybe if I grow a little bit I can marry you."
KID 2 : "Yah pabo! I thought you want to marry me?!"
MN : "Hahaha no fighting. Noona is already married to a beautiful girl."
KID 1 : "Ehhhhh? Then I guess it's you again."
KID 2 : "As if I want to marry you anymore."
KID 1 : "I was just joking, you're like the prettiest girl in the universe."
MN : "Hahaha."
KID 1 : "Noona why are you laughing?"
MN : "Well you two remind me of someone I know."
KID 2 : "How unnie?"
MN : "That person was really persistent. No matter how many times the other person rejected her she didn't stop trying."
KID 1 : "Did they end up together noona?"
MN : "They did, they've been married for a while now but it seems that the other girl forgot about her wife."
KID 1 : "Then everything should be okay."
MN : "Ehhhhh?"
KID 2 : "Unnie you said it yourself the other unnie didn't stop until they got married. I'm sure that unnie will remember soon."
MN : "Hahaha maybe your right."
KID 1 : "Noona we're leaving it's almost time for our school."
MN : "Arraso...."
KID 2 : "Unnie can we play with Ray again?"
MN : "Of course, Ray would be happy to see you again. Gaja! Do your best at school!"
KIDS : "Hai!!!!"
Somehow talking to those two made my day better. I'm should go and cooked breakfast Chaeng will be up soon.
--
CY : "Unnie morning."
MN : "Morning Chaeng, you're just in time for breakfast."
CY : "Oh thank you."
MN : "Hmm about last night? You said you wanted to talk about something?"
CY : "Unnie can we do that later? I want to spend some time alone. I'll be in my studio."
MN : "Arraso, I'll cook lunch and just grab it whenever you feel hungry. I'm not going to disturb you."
CY : "Thank you unnie."
Our day went by us like this, she didn't even come out of the studio for lunch and it was already passed dinner. I spent the whole day watching TV and knitting.
*Door opens*
MN : "Chaeng, you didn't eat lunch you must be hungry."
CY : "Aniyo unnie can I ask you something?"
MN : "What is it?"
CY : "Unnie why didn't you told me?"
MN : "Huh?"
CY : "You know everything right? Nayeon unnie told me, you saw us eating outside. You know about me lying to you. Why didn't you say anything?"
MN : "Cause I thought you're just looking for the right time to tell me."
CY : "Unnie how could stay quiet knowing I lied to you? You didn't even say anything when you saw me and Somi."
MN : "Cause I know she's your friend."
CY : "But what if she's not?"
The loud noise coming from the TV disappeared, all I hear was her words and my heart beating fast.
MN : "What are you saying?"
CY : "What if I'm cheating on you? Would you just stay quiet?"
How am I supposed to react to that? Does she want me to punch her? Does she want me to get angry?
MN : "I know you won't."
CY : "What if I did?"
MN : "I'm sure you won't."
CY : "How?"
MN : "Cause I know you."
CY : "You don't know me, the Chaeyoung you know is missing. For now, anything can happen."
MN : "Then be it, if that's the thing that would make you happy but did you really do it?"
CY : "Aniyo."
MN : "Then we're done talking about this."
CY : "Unnie...."
MN : "I'm going outside to walk Ray chan, you can eat dinner without us."
The truth was my heart was hurting so much that I didn't know how to keep up with that conversation. I don't know what to do anymore. I went outside with Ray and we're not even that far from home when my tears started to fall.
I know she's not the Chaeng who used to love me but saying that anything can happen for now broke my heart into pieces. It's like she's saying that I should prepare myself for something.
--
When we arrived back home, Chaeyoung was already in bed under the blanket with just her hand out.
MN : "Hey sorry about earlier." I said as I squeezed her hand three times.
CY : "It's okay unnie, hmm can you stop squeezing my hand. It's getting a little bit annoying."
MN : "Arraso, good night Chaeng."
CY : "Yeah unnie."
I never thought that a day like this will come. A little bit more and I'm going to lose her.
