"Ms Jessica.."
"Wake up please?"
"Mr Jung has a call for you" called butler lee politely

"Mmm..?"
"Okay.." said Jessica as she sat up slowly on her bed
"Where's the phone..?"

"Here"

*PHONE CALL*

"Appa..?"

"Sooyeon!"
"What time is it already&you're still sleeping?!"
"I've spent my precious time waiting for you to get up&answer this call!" scolded Mr Jung over the phone

"Chosohamida appa" apologised Jessica over the phone sadly

"Forget it!"
"Your apology is not even sincere!"
"I just want to tell you that there's an event tonight&you have attend it on behalf of me since im not free"
"Its already 9am, everything starts at 5pm&ends at 11pm"
"I want you to prepare&go"

"But appa.."
"I've something really important today.." said Jessica softly over the phone, afraid to earn another scolding from Mr Jung

"What is more important than my business!"
"And im just informing you, not giving you a chance to agree on going or not!"
"If i dont hear the news from my friends that you're not there later, you better watch out" warned Mr Jung sternly
"There'll be a lot of atheletes there, you better open up your eyes&see if there's any potential ones&sign them on!"

"Neh.."

*END OF PHONE CALL*

"Argh.." mumbled Jessica as she massaged her temples while passing the phone back to butler lee

"Kwenchaenayo Ms Jessica?" asked butler lee worriedly

"Neh, kwenchaena"
"Where's Yuri?"

"Ah, Ms Yuri"
"She went for her usual training"
"But she told me to tell you to look at your phone when you wake up" informed butler lee
"By the way, what do you want for breakfast Ms Jessica?"

"Oh.."
"Er, just give me a cup of milk"
"My head is hurting so badly that i dont have any appetite" said Jessica as she went over to grab her phone

"Your head is hurting?"
"Do you want me to call Ms Yuri back to take a look at you?"

"NO NO NO!"
"Yuri will kill me if she knows about it"
"Dont, dont tell her"
"Butler Lee"
"If i ever find out that you told Yuri about it"
"You're dead" warned Jessica with her deathly glare

"Okay then"
"I wont tell"
"I'll go get you a cup of warm milk then" said butler lee before exiting the room.

*END OF TEXT*

Jessica's POV

Sigh..
What am i supposed to do?
Sandwiched in between Yuri&dad..
Guess im left with no choice but to run away from Yuri&apologise to her later..
Getting scolded by Yuri is better than getting scolded by dad..

End of Jessica's POV

*Knock knock*

"Here Ms Jessica"
"A cup of warm milk for you" bowed butler respectfully as he handed the cup of milk over to Jessica

"Thanks butler lee"
"And oh ya, can you prepare a car for me"
"I'll be going to the office in an hours time&leave at around 2pm to come back&prepare for an event"

"Event?"
"Since when did you have it?"
"What about your treatment with Ms Yuri?"

"Since my dad called" replied Jessica with a 'duh' expression
"As for Yuri, dont let her know till im off"
"I'll come back&get scolded by her, thats all" mumbled Jessica as she walked into the bathroom to wash up.

Around 2 hours later, Jessica arrived at SM sports building.
Entering the building, she was greeted by the staff there politely with a 90 degree bow.
Jessica first got into her office, packed up all her work&headed to the pool.
Yup, its been only a few hours since she saw Yuri, but she's already missing her.
So she decided to work in the pool while watching Yuri's training.

At the pool, it was pretty quiet except for the splashing sounds of water&the whistles blown by the coaches.
Jessica found herself a comfortable seat at the audience seat&sat down, admiring Yuri's graceful swimming pose before starting her work.
It was already 11.30am, she was left with 2 hour 30 minutes before she have to leave to prepare for the event.
Hearing from her secretary that the event was held for the rich&famous.
People who are invited are welcome to bring a guest of their own for the event.
But Jessica cant possibly bring Yuri with her.
If she does, everything will be let out of the bag&most probably she wont be able to go because of Yuri

"Hello babe"
"A penny for your thoughts?" asked Yuri who had just completed her earlier half of the training

"Oh you're here" smiled Jessica as she put away her laptop&documents
"How's training?"

"Doing the same old usual stuff"
"Why are you here?"

"To look at you?"
"I missed you" said Jessica with a sweet smile showing off her really pretty white teeth

"Hahas, Sica-ah"
"Its just a few hours since we last saw each other!" exclaimed Yuri who chuckled at Jessica's silliness
"Anyway, you remember our 6pm appointment right?" asked Yuri suspiciously

"Err.."
"Yye..Yeah.." stuttered Jessica awkwardly

"Something sounds wrong here~"

"Ani ani"
"I remember"
"Lets go for lunch okay?" asked Jessica who tried to change the subject

"Okay then" giggled Yuri happily
"But i only an hour for my break"

"Its okay, i've already asked my secretary to order sushi for us"
"Its still your favourite right?"
"Like 4 years ago"
"I didnt forget your sashimi though!"

"ASSA!"
"SASHIMI!" cheered Yuri happily
"KAJA KAJA!"

In Jessica's office

"Woah, Sica-ah"
"Your office's forever so messy with the documents" commented Yuri as she walked around the office before settling down on the couch

"Cant help it" shrugged Jessica
"Here"
"Help yourself, eat as much as you want" smiled Jessica as she placed boxes of sushis&sashimis on the coffee table

"Arent you eating?" asked Yuri with her stuffed mouth

"YAH YURI-AH!"
"Chew before you speak!"
"And nope, its fine i bought it just for you"
"I'll be leaving at 2pm for something else&i would eat later" said Jessica assuringly

"LIAR~" said Yuri as she rolled her eyes at Jessica
"Eat with me!" whined Yuri cutely

"Yuri-ah, you know you cant do cute stuff right.." commented Jessica trying to hold her laughter from Yuri's failed cuteness

"Whatever~"
"Forget it if you dont want"
"You're gonna regret for not eating with the legend of SM sports~" said Yuri sacarstically

"Thats right"
"Im gonna regret it big time" replied Jessica sacarastically, trying to keep with the show

Hours after Yuri left for her training, Jessica packed up her stuff&was leaving the building.
Leaving&entering the building was the same, all the staff bowed respectfully as her as she walked past them.

"Ms Jessica" greeted the chaffeur as he opened the car door for Jessica

"Back home please"

"Okay sure"

20 minutes later, Jessica arrived back at her mansion&was greeted by the maids&butler lee at the main door.

"Welcome back Ms Jessica"

"Thank you butler lee"
"Have you gotten the makeup artiste&hairstylist ready?"
"I'll be done as soon as i've finished bathing" asked Jessica as she walked up to her room

"Yup, i've gotten it all ready"
"They are all waiting for you in the other room"

"Okay thanks i'll be out swiftly"

An hour later, Jessica exited the room wearing a simple yet elegant looking white dress that revealed her perfect S-body line.
Except for the fact that she's a little skinny.
But thats expected of her, since she's been tortured by her health since she was young.

"Ms Jessica"
"You look beautiful" praised butler lee

"Thank you"
"Now where's the hairstylist&makeup artiste?"

"Oh they are here" said butler lee as he led Jessica  into another room

"Anyeonghaeseyo Ms Jessica"
"We're your makeup artiste&hairstylist for today" bowed the two politely

"Oh, anyeonghaeseyo" replied Jessica as she sat down infront of the dressing table
"Please dont give me any heavy makeup or some heavy hairstyle please"
"My head is hurting like crazy, i dont want anything to aggravate it any more"
"Just natural&elegant make up will do"
"Thank you"

"Okay sure" replied the two in unison

Since the request were simple, they were done within an hour.
Jessica came out of the room with a simple wavy hair&a natural princess-like makeup.
Butler Lee who was waiting for Jessica outside were really amazed at how pretty Jessica could get after putting on makeup when she's already a natural beauty without makeup.

"Butler Lee"
"Is the car ready?"
"Its already 4.20pm"
"I dont want to be late"

"Yup it is"
"This way please Ms Jessica"

In the car

"How long will it take to reach the event venue?"

"Err.."
"Around 30minutes i supposed Ms Jessica" replied the chaffeur

"Okay"
"I'll take a short nap, wake me up when we've arrived" instructed Jessica

"Okay sure"

30 minutes later

"Ms Jessica"
"We've have arrived"

"Mmm..?" mumbled Jessica as she rubbed her eyes slowly
".. Okay.."
"Thanks, pick me up at 11pm please"

"Sure"
"Enjoy yourself Ms Jessica" said the chaffeur before driving off

Jessica's POV

How can i possibly enjoy myself..?
Seriously..?

End of Jessica's POV

Entering the venue hall, it was pretty elegant&grand.
But till now, Jessica had no idea what the whole event was for till the emcee stood on the stage&announced it.
The emcee said that this event was for all the rich to bond with each other, promote better ties within each other.

Jessica's POV

Hell, seriously?
This is important..?
Bonding with the rich is important..?
Appa must be kidding me..

End of Jessica's POV

"A penny for your thoughts?" asked two girls who approached Jessica with a cup of champagne on each of their hands.

"Hmm..?"

"Anyeonghaeseyo"
"Kim Taeyeon imida" introduced Taeyeon as she stretched out her arms for a handshake

"Anyeonghaeseyo"
"Tiffany Hwang imida" introduced Tiffany as she too stretched out her arms for a handshake

"Oh, anyeonghaeseyo Taeyeon-sshi&Tiffany-sshi" replied Jessica after responding to their handshakes
"Jessica Jung imida"

"OMONA!"
"Taetae! You heard that?!"
"She's the first person who can actually pronounce it well!" exclaimed Tiffany

"I heard it Tiff"
"Dont make a big fuss out of it"
"You're gonna scare her away" giggled Taeyeon dorkily

"Hahas, sorry dont mind us"
"Taeyeon's my girlfriend"
"And we're from the Kim&Hwang holdings"
"We spotted you from afar looking pretty lonely, so we decided to come&have a chat with you" eye-smiled Tiffany

"Oh,you guys dont really need to do all these"
"Im fine being alone"
"I came here on behalf of my dad"
"Im from SM sports"

"OH.MY.GOD"
"SM sports?"
"That famous sports company in Korea?!"
"I wanted to visit it so much since i were young!"
"SM sports produce pretty&handsome yet potential atheletes!"
"Its amazing!"

"Dont mind her"
"She's a little crazy, she came from America" explained Taeyeon

"Oh, its fine"
"I came from America too when i was younger too" said Jessica

"Oh really?"
"We should in English then"
"So that Taeyeon cant understand what we're talking about"
"It will drive her crazy" giggled Tiffany

"Hahas"
"Dont, she's like glaring at us"
"I dont wanna get bashed up by her" joked Jessica

"YAH TIPPANI!"
"Continue&im leaving you!" pouted Taeyeon as she turned&walked away

"Sorry Jessica"
"We'll see you around soon" smiled Tiffany before going after Taeyeon
"Taetae! BIANEH!"
"Dont leave me alone!" whined Tiffany cutely

Looking at the cute couple reminds Jessica of Yuri&her.
How she wished Yuri was with her, like how Taeyeon&Tiffany are.
Just then, her phone rang.

*PHONE CALL*

"Yoboseyo"

"WHAT YOBOSEYO!"
"YAH JESSICA JUNG, WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?!"
"YOU WANNA DIE?!"
"WHAT TIME IS IT NOW?!"
"YOU KNOW THE SEVERITY OF MISSING YOU TREATMENT DONT YOU!" shouted Yuri over the phone angrily

"Ms Yuri"
"Calm down"

"SHUT UP BUTLER LEE"
"I CANT BELIEVE YOU ARE IN THIS WITH SICA!"
"YOU KNOW HER CONDITION SO WELL, HOW CAN YOU LET HER DO THIS?!"
"JESSICA JUNG! IF YOU DONT COME HOME RIGHT THIS MINUTE"
"YOU'RE DEADMEAT!" threatened Yuri

"Yuri-ah, bianeh"
"Cheongmal bianeh"
"My dad asked me to attend this important event on behalf of him"
"I cant say no.."

"Whats more important than your health Sica?"
"You're always making me so worried for you"
"What do you want me to do?"
"Im now your personal doctor yet you dont wanna listen to me"

"Sorry Yuri.."
"Dont be mad at me.."
"I'll be back later.." apologised Jessica as she quickly hung up the call before Yuri continue to scold her further.

*END OF PHONE CALL*

Jessica's POV

Im dead..
Yuri's gonna kill me for it..
Forget it, i'll just let things flow naturally..
Sigh..

End of Jessica's POV

Hours later, its finally 11pm when they officially announced that the whole event is over.
All the guest started leaving the venue hall, just as Jessica was leaving, she met Taeyeon&Tiffany again.

"Hey there Jessica" called Taeyeon happily

"Hey Taeyeon-sshi" smiled Jessica

"Had fun tonight?" asked Tiffany with smiles on her face

"Nope, not really"
"But i see you girls had fun"

"Hahas, we're always having whenever we have each other's company" giggled Tiffany

"Yup thats right" added Taeyeon

"Hahas, okay"
"Gotta go Taeyeon-sshi&Tiffany-sshi"
"Hope to see you girls around soon"
"And its nice meeting you girls tonight" smiled Jessica politely with a slight bow before leaving the event venue

Since it was pretty late at night, the traffic back home werent as congested as it was in the evening.
So within 15 minutes, Jessica arrived back home instead of 30 minutes.
Thinking that Yuri's already asleep, she quietly crept back into the room not knowing that Yuri was actually waiting for her in her room.
Following her up was butler lee with a strained expression on his face, worrying whats going to happen between Jessica&Yuri in the room.
Opening the room door, Jessica gasped at the sight of the tall, fairly-tanned girl sitting on her bed with an extremely angry expression.
Not knowing what to do, Jessica immediately turned around&closed the room door.

"Butler Lee"
"What am i supposed to do now?" whispered Jessica panickly

"I dont know Ms Jessica"
"Maybe you should just go in&apologise to Ms Yuri?"
"She's really worried for you, she rushed home immediately despite her whole of tough training just to prepare your treatment"
"She even skipped her dinner waiting for you.."

"She skipped her dinner?"
"Did you explain to her why i had to go?"

"I tried.."
"She just doenst want to listen"
"She said nothing is much more important than your health" explained butler lee

"Nevermind"
"I'll go down to the kitchen&cook her favourite ramen for her first" sighed Jessica as she walked down the stairs to the kitchen.

Jessica was really exhausted after the whole 6 hours of the stupid bonding event.
She roughly get the idea of why her dad sent her there because in her fathers POV,
if there's anytime when they needed help on their company, with these good ties between the rich would benefit him well.

After what seems like 15 minutes, Jessica had finished cooking.
While she was pouring the noodles into the bowl for Yuri, she accidentally scalded her hands with the hot soup.

"Ouch!" squeaked Jessica

"You okay Ms Jessica?" asked butler lee worriedly

"Yeah im fine"
"Im going up now"

While walking up to the room, Jessica's heartbeat started beating faster&faster.
Dont know whether is it another warning of her heart attack or just that she's very nervous on how Yuri's gonna react upon seeing her.
Mustering up all her courage, she slowly opened the door&went in.

"Yuri-ah"
"Bianeh" apologised Jessica as she set the noodles down on the table
"I've cooked you your favourite noodles"
"Forgive me..?"
"Please..?" asked Jessica with her puppy eyes

"Forgive you?!"
"HAHA!"
"What a joke!" replied Yuri sacarstically
"You're just one girl who pushes away my love&concern away from me"
"What kind of forgiveness are you expecting from me?!"
"For lying?!"
"For taking your health as a joke?!"
"Or fooling your personal doctor around like a clown?!" exploded Yuri

Tears were streaming down Jessica's face like a river,
partly was because her chest were hurting&the other part was because her heart was hurting to all Yuri's words.
Jessica knew Yuri was concerned about her, worried for her.
Every word from Yuri's mouth felt like daggers piercing through Jessica's heart.
Every tear that fell from Jessica's face felt like arrows shooting through Yuri's worried heart.

"Im sorry Yuri.."
"I didnt mean to make you feel like you're being fooled.."
"I didnt mean to lie.."
"I didnt mean to.."

"You didnt mean to this, you didnt mean to that!"
"But still, you did it Sica"
"You did it, you didnt mean to but you did it!" shouted Yuri as tears finally escaped her watery eyes

"Sorry Yul.." sobbed Jessica as she fell to her knees
"Im really sorry.."

"Dont apologise because its of no use!"
"Dont try to make it up for me 'cause you broke me inside out when you tore my concern for you away!" boomed Yuri as she stormed out of the room.

Butler Lee who overheard everything rushed into room immediately to check on Jessica as Jessica couldnt actually receive such huge emotional pain. The emotional pain would actually bring more physical pain to Jessica's damaged heart.

"Ms Jessica"
"Are you alright?" asked butler lee worried as he tried to help Jessica up

"Pain.. butler lee.."
"No.. air.." said Jessica in between gasps as she clutched her chest so tightly that her knuckles went white

"I'll call for Ms Yuri" said butler lee as he laid Jessica on her bed

"She.. wont.. come.."
"She hates.. me.. now..." said Jessica before letting darkness overtake her

"" cursed butler lee as he ran out of Jessica's room looking for Yuri
"Ms Yuri! Ms Yuri!" shouted butler lee
"Ms Yuri! Please come&look at Ms Jessica, she fainted!!" exclaimed butler lee

"What?!"
".." grumbled Yuri as she rushed into Jessica's room

Looking at the motionless girl with her tears-filled face but her expression wasnt peaceful but was frowning,
like she was in pain.
Yuri quickly set up the oxygen mask&put it over Jessica's face, put on the clip that monitors her heartbeat, blood pressure etc.
Reading from the machine, Jessica's heartbeat were really weak, beating really very slowly with her heavy breathing.
Yuri then inserted the infus into Jessica's right hand gently, hanging up the bags of drip before injecting a heart strengthener into her infus.

"Sica-ah.."
"Look.. this is what i was worried about.."
"It still happened.." whispered Yuri as she was holding on to Jessica's hand but was shocked to see her hand red&swollen.
"Butler Lee, what happened?" asked Yuri as she pointed over to Jessica's red&swollen hand

"Oh, Ms Jessica scalded her hand by the soup while she was cooking the noodles for you after hearing that you've been waiting for her&skipped your dinner" explained butler lee

"Pabo Sica-ah.."
"You're someone so much more important than me.." sighed Yuri as she exited the room

Minutes later, Yuri came back to Jessica's room, with some antiseptic wipe&cream for scalded wounds.
She sat there, wiping Jessica's hands gently before applying the cream on her hands.
Every wipe made her heartache so much for Jessica.

Yuri's POV

Sica actually made dinner for me..
How could i actually treat her that way..
I knew she couldnt take all these blows..
But i still did it..
Bianeh Sica-ah..
Cheongmal bianeh..

End of Yuri's POV

Tears so sorry were falling down Yuri's face.
Anyone who sees it will definitely know the tears were true, full of love.

"Yuri-ah.." called Jessica weakly as she tried to remove the oxygen mask

Jessica wanted to talk to Yuri, but the oxygen mask was getting in her way.

"Dont, Sica"
"Dont remove it.." said Yuri as she took Jessica's hands away

"Bianeh Yuri-ah.."
"Cheongmal bianeh.."

"Araesso araesso"
"Now rest, i've put on the drip for your treatment already.. "
"Together with your medicine.." said Yuri softly&Jessica turned around slowly but cringed at the sight of bags of solution hung over the IV stand.

"Gomawo.." replied Jessica tiredly
"Are you still mad at me..?"
"I really.. really didnt.. want to do.. this.."
"But im afraid.. my dad.." explained Jessica in between breaths

"Sica-ah"
"Really, stop talking now"
"Or else im really going to ignore you" threatened Yuri

Yuri was worried for Jessica, looking at how difficult it was for Jessica to speak.
Yuri knew that till now, there's a slight pain at her chest whenever she breathes in&out so it would actually hurt more if she speaks.
But despite that, Jessica still tried to explain herself.

"Yuri.."
"Listen.. to me.."
"I wanna explain.. everything.. to you.."

"No i dont wanna hear it"
"I believe everything&i understand everything"
"Now, you should listen to me"
"Im your doctor now"
"Sleep now before i inject an anaesthetic jab into your infus"
"Choose to sleep yourself or through my way" threatened Yuri

"Sorry.." said Jessica as she finally closed her eyes&fell back into her deep slumber.

Yuri's POV

Aish..
This girl, she's always so stubborn!

End of Yuri's POV

Hours later, Yuri who fell asleep beside Jessica's bed were awoken by Jessica's cries.

"Omma.."
"No..!"
"Omma dont..!" cried Jessica as she thrashed her head left&right violently
"Cheongsohamida appa.."
"Cheongmal cheongsohamida.."

"Hushhush.."
"Sica-ah, its just a nightmare.."
"Not real not real" cooed Yuri who was brushing off Jessica's fringe, wiping away her cold sweat.

"Yuri-ah.."
"Cheongmal bianeh.."
"I really love you.."
"I really love the carn&concern you've been giving me.."
"Please forgive me.."
"Please.." cried Jessica in her sleep

"Sica"
"Sica!" called Yuri as she shook Jessica violently to wake her up.

Jessica's been going through too much stress which caused her hallucination dreams.
If she's gonna continue dreaming like that, Yuri could actually predict what will actually happen.

"Mmm..?"
"Yuri?"
"Yuri-ah!" cried Jessica as she hugged onto Yuri suddenly
"I dreamt that you left me for good"
"Dont leave me Yuri, i'll listen to you"
"Please dont leave me" sobbed Jessica bitterly

"Pabo Sica-ah"
"I wont leave you, no matter how angry i am"
"I wont, i promise i wont leave you" comforted Yuri as she patted Jessica's back

"Cheongmal?" asked Jessica with her eyes lit up a little

"Of course"
"Its this thing here" said Yuri as she pointed to Jessica's chest
"Is already hurting my Sica so much"
"How could i leave her to hurt her even more than that?" smiled Yuri

"Saranghae Yuri!"

"Now now, sleep now okay?"
"And dont go to work for the next two days" instructed Yuri
"Have plenty bed rest okay, the treatment i've given you is much stronger than the other doctors had given you"
"I dont want you to faint in the streets"

"Dont go to work..?"
"Appa will kill me.."

"Let him kill you then" snapped Yuri, irritated by Jessica's dad

Yuri dont understand why Jessica's father so mean to her one&only daughter.
Her daughter's health is so weak yet the father dont give a damn about it but forces her,
pressurizes her to do things.
