Chapter 21

You And I [COMPLETED]
Time- 7:56PM

It's been three days since the scandal. It turned out to be bigger than I thought. They seriously just cooked things up, with their eyes closed, not even bothering to get things right. Fans said that they withnessed me and Seung Hyun drinking together with friends. When did I even lift the glass near my lips? Of course, I suffer more from the rumors. I'm so troubled by this issue. Then something more absurd surfaced on the net. The route we took to get back, they claimed that it looked like one of the path that leads to a hotel. What the hell?! Seriously, even the fans of Seung Hyun have no trust in their idol. How can they say that? As they said, it only looked like. And so what if there's really a hotel located there? We just passed by. There's no hotels, motels or what so ever there. I even gave the address to my president and even checked. We even go further to check the hotels, motels nearby to confirm if there's anyone by the name of 'Choi Seung Hyun' or 'Yi Jung' ever booked a room. This greatly insulted me. No matter how much the public dislike me, they do not have the right to say such things. This is just so stressful. Something that not only involves me, it involves both parties and worse still, it might affects the drama that is ongoing. I have been so depressed that I cried to sleep this few days. Anti-fans sent threatening letters, spammed the chatbox on our agent website, my webpage, super negative comments were written and there is one that really made me jumped. A letter that is written with blood, warning me to get away from Seung Hyun and calling me a . The fan actually sent it to the set but I was not allowed to leave the set so my manager went to get it for me. I jerked and dropped the letter, stunned. Then quickly picked it up and threw it away before the others found out the content of the letter. I can't even go to school. I have to stay indoors at all times. And my manager is 24/7 beside me.

I sat at the chair, waiting for the part of the filming to start. Today is the last day of the filming. Good thing but there's still promotional activities. Just imagining facing those anti-fans made me so afraid. To be honest, my condition now was not suitable for filming. My eyes were so puffy and swollen, I looked pale as well. My make-up was a litter thicker than usual to cover the unwelcoming features I had. I had insomnia and I think I had cried all my tears that I can't even shed a tear yesterday and just stared at nothing till I got tired and fell asleep. In the end, I woke up and can't get back to sleep again. I only had 30 minutes of sleep. I lost my appetite. My mind was blank now. I closed my eyes, praying that I would be tired enough to nap for just 5 minutes. But my mind was all occupied by the scandal. I opened my eyes slowly, feeling so tired of everything. My eyes were moist by tears. I don't know what the tears were for. Was it that I'm tired or feeling sad? I gently rubbed my eyes. I hugged the cushion and stared at I-don't-know-what. Seung Hyun and I had talked less since then, since he knows that I'm tired and we became quite awkward. I heard that Seung Hyun was nearly killed by his manager. But as he is the kind of person that doesn't mind such things, he does not put it to heart while I'm here so bothered by it. Soon, it was my part.

"ACTION!"

I climbed up the stairs. Seung Hyun was just a few steps behind me. When he finally caught up with me, he stopped me by holding onto my wrist and stood infront of me.

"Why are you so angry? I did not argee to it. I'm a victim too." He said, as he bent down. I turned away, not wanting to face him.

"I know you are not in a good mood. But why are you venting your frustrations on me?" His tone was a bit pissed.

"I'm not venting my frustrarions on you. Did I do anything?" I slowly pushed his hand away from my wrist, still looking away.

"Then why are you ignoring me?" He raised his voice.

"I just want to be alone. I'm sorry." I walked away.

"Fine! You are always like this. Not concern about us. I'm always the one caring when you don't even give a . I'm not going to care anymore! I'm tired of coaxing you!" He said, not turning back. I looked down, a tear dropped from my eye. I entered my room, closed the door and leaned on it, crying. I walked towards my bed. I was crying so hard then that before reaching my bed, I fell to the wooden floor, hugging my chest with my arm while another covering my mouth, suppressing my loud cries. I think Seung Hyun heard me crying, his anger seemed to have disappeared as he slowly opened the door and walked slowly towards me, squatted down and held my hands with both of his hands.

"I will not agree to that marriage. I promise." He said gently. Upon hearing his reply, I cried more. My heart hurt so much for I can't love him anymore, that the both of us have to forget each other, and that it's the end of our love. Seung Hyun pulled in for a hug but I pushed him a little, stood up and walked to the window.

"It's not as simple as you thought. You are the heir of Choi's Enterprise. What made you think that you can do whatever you want? It's different this time." I calmed down and spoke. I knew how life is to be in a wealthy family. Human can't have everything. One has to be give up on certain things when they already has something. For us, people who's in a rich family, arranged marriages are so common that they are like a so-called tradition for the wealthy. Not that we chose wealth over love, we are just born with it. But who cares? Other people don't understand as we need not worry about things that other people worry for everyday. Food, clothes, luxuries. We name something and with a click of our fingers, that something becomes our's.

"Because I'm Choi Seung Hyun and I always do whatever I want." He still doesn't get what I meant!

"As I said, it's different this time!" I shouted, with my back facing him. "You think your parents are going to just let you be this time? Just because you are their precious son? You are so naive." I spat at him.

"I don't care. Just trust me. I will do something about it."

"What are you going to do about it?!" I yelled in distress, turning to face him. "There's nothing you could do. Now, you are not their son. You are the heir of Choi's Enterprise! Personal feelings won't win over money. You lived this kind of life for 18 years! You should know!" I continued. I closed my eyes and breathed in. "It's the end." The urge in me to cry built up. I turned my back to face Seung Hyun and tears flowed. I wiped them as they trickled down.

"What...?"

"I said it's the end! We are over!" My heart ached so much when I heard myself. I lifted my left hand to cover my face. I felt like I'm suffocating. I sensed Seung Hyun walking closer and stopped behind me.

"Why are you saying such things? When you doesn't mean it?" I couldn't suppressed my cries anymore. I need to let it out. I turned back to leave the room.

"I'm sorry. Leave me alone for now." I said as I made my way to the door. Before I could take the forth step, Seung Hyun pulled me into his embrace.

"I don't want to." He wrapped me and placed his head on mine.

"What are you doing? Let go." I managed to say coldly. I don't want to be indepedent on him when I know he will soon no longer be mine. This only earned me a tighter hug. He pushed me so hard towards him that I could feel his heartbeat.

"I'm not letting you go." He held my head to his chest, his head still on mine. "Never..." He whispered. There, a tear appeared on the corners of my eyes. I tried pulling away as I'm afraid that I might want more of his warmth.

"Don't push me away. No way I'm letting you go." He caressed my head. I became weak. I hugged him and cried in his chest, wetting his shirt. There's nothing I could do. There's nothing I could do for us, for our relationship. I can only cry like this. My body shook as I cried. When I finally calmed down, Seung Hyun pulled away.

"Don't cry..." He said as he lifted my face and wiped my tears. "It hurts me." He looked into my eyes. Tears overspilled again. He wouldn't understand. How much pain I'm feeling right now. When we love each other so deeply, but have to give an end to everything. He wouldn't know how hard it was. I turned down, not wanting him to watch me as I teared. He once again lifted my face a little, bent down and kissed my tears.

"No matter how hard things get, I will always be there and kiss your tears away." He then moved down to kiss the edge of my lips, where there was a tear that just entered my mouth. He kissed me at my lips and the kiss grew into a romantic one. He then pulled away and hugged me, with my head against his chest. I closed my eyes and smiled faintly.

"Cut! Good!" Director Cha said. "Seung Hyun ah. Good improvising. It's great." We then went over to the monitor and watched. Seung Hyun added the "and kiss your tears away" to the script. Even the kissing of tears and the edge of the lips, he improvised it. And I have to admit that it really does came out well. But I don't really have to mood to enjoy so I just had my make-up patched up and got ready for the next scene.

"Are you okay?" My manager came went I was reading the script. "Are you still worried?"

"I'm fine. Don't worry." I lied. I'm able to do the crying and yelling scenes so well because I brought my personal feelings in. Through out the filming, my mind can't forget the scandal. I vented everything in me into the scenes and I guessed these are the best scenes for the drama. We then proceed to the other scenes and as planned, the filming ended today. Tomorrow we would have a dinner with the entire of production to celebrate and soon the promotional activities would start. What variety shows we would be going were already confirmed. I just have to get prepared to answer those questions that are not written on the script. The MCs would surely ask, since I had a scandal.
