Chapter 9

Took an Oath - I’mma stick it out to the end

For next few days, Jessica had plenty of bed rest apart from attending those important meetings.
Jessica attended the important meetings while the least important things were passed over to Yuri.
Soon enough, Jessica was back to her healthy state again. Or should it be a much more healthy state since she's still asthmatic?

Jessica's POV

Ahhh.
Finally, im out of the bed.
Free from those scary needles!
Shall text Taetae to ask her out.
Its been a long time since we hung out with each other.
Felt so bad, after agreeing to be her girlfriend,
I was sick all along, couldnt spend time with her and even vented my frustration at her.

*End of text*

Hmm..
Gotta leave the house early and grab Taetae a present to apologise to her..
What should I get..
Hmm..
I think i'll ask the driver to drop me off at a mall for me to grab a bouquet of flowers & a present.

End of Jessica's POV

At the mall

Jessica was walking around when a jewellery shop caught her attention.
She walked into the shop, looked around and found something that she thought it would be the perfect gift for Taeyeon.
She walked over to the assistant and asked the assistant to let her take a look at the bracelet.

"Hi there, Miss"
"This is a bracelet is a new arrival"
"It symbolises the utmost sincere apology"
"It will really fit the receiver if you're trying to apologise"
"But if you're looking at something else that represents love or any other thing,"
"I can recommend you some others"

"Err nope its fine. I'll get this" Jessica passed her a credit card and sat down there waiting.

Few minutes later, the sales assistant walked over to Jessica, returned her her credit card together with the bracelet.
Next, Jessica head on to the florist to buy a bouquet of white tulip, representing forgiveness and then went straight to XXX cafe to meet Taeyeon.
When Jessica arrived at the cafe, she found Taeyeon already seated there waiting for her while sipping her drink.
So she walked towards Taeyeon and gave her a hug from the back.
Taeyeon was first shocked, but turned back and gave her a peck on her cheek.

"Taetae! I've got something to give you.."
"Hehe"

Jessica passed the bouquet of white tulip & the box of bracelet to Taeyeon.

"Why Sica?"

"Well, Taetae, i just wanna apologise to you"
"I shouted and vented my frustration on you when i was sick"
"im so sorry for it"

"Well Sica, there's no need to actually apologise you know"
"I understand that you're sick, feeling really unwell thats why"
"But since its a present from you, im just gonna keep it" chuckled Taeyeon

As weeks past by,
Taeyeon's slowly getting the hang of managing Kim's Enterprise,
getting busier and busier, day by day.
Just like Jessica.
While Jessica's much more busier that Taeyeon,
Taeyeon will use her free time to visit Jessica,
Spend time with her.

One day, when Jessica was at home working,
Tiffany skipped into Jessica's room.

[ENGLISH CONVERSATION]

"Jessica!"

"Yup?"

"Im going back to US in tomorrow for my next photo shoot!"

"So fast? Aww.. Tiff, im gonna miss you so much!"
"Will you be returning after that?"

"I dont know, Jessica"
"I dont know will there be any more photo shoots for me"
"But i promise i'll return okay, whenever i get a holiday from my company" Tiffany said while throwing her an eye smile.

"Really? Aww.. So sweet"
"Hahas, since today's your last day in Korea, shall we go out and have some fun?"

"REALLY?! JESSICA'S WILLING TO PUT HER WORK ASIDE AND HAVE FUN WITH ME!"
"WOOHOOOO!"

Jessica smacked Tiffany's on her arms to make her stop her funny shoutings.

"Lets go to the theme park later okay? Let me get ready first"
"Is it okay if we ask Taeyeon, Krystal along?"

"Of course! The more the merrier!"

"Okay then, get going Tiff!"
"Go and prepare, we'll be moving out in an hours time"

[End of ENGLISH CONVERSATION]

*Phone call*

"Yoboseyo"

"Taetae! Wanna go to the theme park with me, Tiffany & Krystal?"
"Its Tiffany's last day in Korea. She's going back to US tomorrow to resume her photo shoots"

"Jinja?! Okay i'll be coming"
"Give me an hour i'll meet you outside your house!"
"Sica! Dont forget your inhaler!"

*End phone call*

*Phone call*

"Yoboseyo"

"Krystal, do you wanna join me, Tiffany & Taeyeon to the theme park?"
"Its Tiffany's last day in Korea. She's returning to US tomorrow"

"Jinja?! So fast?! Okay, i'll be coming. I'll reach home in 30 minutes time!"
"See ya unnie!"

*End of phone call*

1 hour later

The 4 bestie met up at Jessica's house and headed towards the theme park to spend their day.
Seconds past.. Minutes past.. Hours past..
Only laughters were heard, clicking sounds of camera were heard.
The 4 of them were trying hard to take down memories of them being together before Tiffany flies off.
Tiffany's got really irregular schedule. She flies around the world for photoshoots, so its really hard to tell when will she return to Korea.
Soon, the sky turned dark and theme parks were seen closing down.
Then they went for a late night supper at a nearby snack stall.
They chatted & laughed like there's no tomorrow and only returning back home when it was 3am in the morning.

" *Yawns* I guess its time for us to go home" Tiffany announced
"My flight will be at 11am and i have to get home to pack, and get to the airport by 9.30am"

"Okays, think we'll just head home. I think Krystal's tired too" Jessica said while pointing at Krystal who's yawning non-stop.
"Taetae, come on, we'll send you home first"

"Okay Sica"

So they sent Taeyeon home and got back home after that.
While Krystal went straight to bed,
Jessica walked over to Tiffany's room and helped her to pack her luggage.
While packing, Tiffany spoke.

"Jessica.."
"I dont know when i'll be returning to Korea again"
"But i really hope that you'll take care of your health alright?"
"I wont be here to take care of you till im back"
"So take care alright?"

Tiffany said while ending it with a hug.

"Aww. So sweet Tiff"
"Yeah i'll try my best to take care of my health"
"Hahas, sometimes u know, things are not meant to happen but actually happened"

Jessica replied while hugging Tiffany.

The next day, at the airport when Tiffany's entering the departure gate.

"Tiffany unnie, please come back soon!" Krystal shouted and signaled her a big heart.

"Tiffany! Please come back and visit soon! I'll miss you!" Taeyeon shouted

"Tiff, i'll miss you! Hope to see you soon!" Jessica shouted in English

"I will guys!" Tiffany said and threw everyone an eye smile before she headed into the departure hall.

Just like that, weeks went past, without Tiffany.
Everyone missed Tiffany's presence.
The loud and easy-going Tiffany.
But on the other hand, the relationship between Jessica&Taeyeon become so much closer.
Their love for each other increase and increase as the days got by.

One night, when Jessica was sending Taeyeon home after their dinner,
they found a parcel right outside Taeyeon's mansion.
It was said that the parcel's for Taeyeon.
When they opened up the box, there's just this creepy note.

"KIM TAEYEON.."
"WAIT FOR ME.."
"IM COMING TO GET YOU.."
"MUAHAHAHA"

All these words were written in red ink, like blood.
Taeyeon was so shocked after reading the creepy note.
Jessica too was shocked, but she cannot afford Taeyeon be harmed.
So she hired a few private investigator to investigate who's behind all these but to no avail.
Its was weeks later, and nothing happened.
So everyone took it as a hoax.
But neither did anyone realised that it really wasnt a hoax..

IT WAS REAL.
TIME WAS THE ONLY THING..
THE CULPRIT WAS WAITING FOR THE RIGHT TIME TO STRIKE...
