♛ Another Cinderella Story ♛
“I had no idea what were you talking about.”
“You tell me, Oppa.”
“What should I tell you?”
“Where is she?”
“You should rest. It is late.”
“But, Oppa..”
“Rest, baby. Good night.”
And, that night, Hyun Joong was able to avoid answering So Min’s question. But, due to his bad luck, she was far from giving up. She haunted him with constant questions.
“Morning, So Min.”
“Morning, Oppa.”
“Did you sleep well?”
“Yes, I did.”
“How is your wound? Is it hurt?”
“No. Not at all. I am good. So, you are getting ready for office?”
“Yes.”
“Uhm.. Oppa, I have been thinking.. I think I should move from this room.”
“Why?”
“Why? What do you mean with why? That question should go back to you actually. I am all good. I am opening my eyes, I am responding to you.. And, see, no needles, no bandages, nothing.. And- And-“
“And?”
“The point is.. we are not married. We shouldn’t stay in the same room. People would-“
“They should mind their own businesses.”
“Oppa~”
“Beside.. We are not sleeping together, together. You are at your treatment bed and I-“
“Exactly! So-“
“You are staying here.”
“Oppa~”
“This room is your safe place. Please.. listen to me. Stay!”
“Just for few more days. I am not comfortable with this treatment bed.”
“Fine, I’ll ask someone to change it.”
“Change it?”
“I am going to put another bed next to mine. For you to sleep over. You are not leaving this room.”
The next two hours, So Min’s treatment bed was changed to comfortable king size bed and it was placed next to Hyun Joong’s massive bed.
“So Min? Why did you leave the room?”
“Oppa.. Suzy is here. She wants me to accompany her walking around. And, I agree. Beside.. staying inside the room all day long bores me. I need fresh air.”
“Where is Seung Hyun?”
“Right behind me.”
“I’ll make sure-“
“Leave him, Oppa. I’ll take all the consequences.”
“Jung So Min~”
“Kim Hyun Joong Oppa.. I am ok. This is your house. Your own house. I am all safe here. Don’t you trust those Men In Black?”
“No, I don’t.”
“Why do you hire them to protect the house, to protect me then?”
“Do not question me, So Min.”
“Well.. hear this, Hyun Joong Oppa. I’ll keep on doing this until you give me the answer.”
“Don’t be stubborn.”
“The same to you.”
She dared herself to stand in front of him. Jung So Min needed the answer, and she was willing to wait. She learned fast about Hyun Joong’s hot button. She also knew that she shouldn’t play with it. But again.. She needed the answer. She couldn't wait any longer.
“What were you doing?”
“What?”
“You questi
