Coincidence or Destiny ?

          I woke up in an empty bed. I took some time to analyze the bedroom where I was. It felt different from mine. Honestly, I was in love with my comfortable bed and whenever I left it, I didn't sleep as easily as I did in my own room. I knew it was weird but that was me. I got up and wrapped a robe around my body. As soon as I stepped out of the bedroom, a nice odor reached my nose. It smelled like pancakes. Still wearing my anti-y clothes, I went to the kitchen and found Zico cooking. From afar I knew it was him. He wasn't as tall as his brother and between a thousand men I would be able to recognize Zico even when I only saw his back. He turned around, asked me to take a seat and I listened to him. While cooking, he explained to me that everyone went to the company. He brought the breakfast to the table.

 

You : woow this is so much~

Zico : only for you

You : you didn't have to

Zico : naah I like cooking

You : really ?

Zico : yeah..

You : wow you'll be a perfect husband then

Zico : if I ever get married

You : have you forgotten what you told me ? You're waiting for the right one while flirting around. I'm sure you'll find this woman one day and you'll happily be a good husband

Zico : I think it's too late already

You : it's never too late

Zico : Eomma showed me the photos..

You : which photos ?

Zico : of the wedding. It's really nice ones. You looked gorgeous

You : ah gomawo

Zico : I'm sorry I couldn't come

You : were you busy ?

Zico : mm.. I was busy getting drunk

You : Oppa... don't be like this

Zico : I'm sorry ~~~~ but. I'm just realizing how hard it is to accept this marriage

You : you should have told me that the other day, when we were together. It's too late now

Zico : I know right... I'm so stupid

You : it'll be alright. You'll meet someone else

Zico : you already got over me nae ?

You : Tae Woon is a good man

 

My comment made him sigh. He picked one chocolate pancake and slowly ate it. We didn't talk for long minutes.

 

Zico : I'm going to leave

You : the house ??

Zico : the country

You : mwo ?? wae ?

Zico : I have to do something with my life. I can't stay here waiting for something to happen

You : are you forced to leave ?

Zico : it's the only way to get away from you

You : Oppa don't leave please

Zico : I already booked my plane ticket

 

I grabbed his hand on the table and held it tight. Although I suffered because of him, I had known since the beginning that he was a playboy. When we met on this boat, he didn't hide it from me. I saw how he treated Ye Jin. A thing I couldn't doubt of was the fact that he treated me better. He was mean to other girls, talked to them as if they were his slaves. With me it wasn't like this, he was sweet and cute. I liked the way he looked at me, the way his hand fit mine perfectly, the feeling of his lips against mine. How could I forget about it ? However that was life, human beings made mistakes, awful ones. I felt like crap. After refusing Zico to marry his brother, I wanted to run away with my real love. I had often made fun of people who changed partners as if they changed shirt and I was now doing the same. I was sure that with efforts, I wouldn't be able to fall for Tae Woon. Zico was the one who caught my eyes, my heart. But Tae Woon tried his best with me and I had promised to make him happy. Zico was someone I couldn't trust because of his attraction to girls yet I thought I had the capacity of changing him. I didn't know what to do, who was the best for me : Tae Woon or Zico ?

 

You : can't you just stay a little more ? I need time to think

Zico : think about what ?

You : about us.. about Tae Woon.. everything..

 

He stood up and leaned against the table to get his face closer to mine. With an hand on my neck, he softly kissed my lips. I closed my eyes to enjoy the full sensation.

 

          After this encounter, Zico had to leave. I went to my room in order to take a shower. My heart skipped a beat when I saw Tae Woon sitting on the bed. I wasn't expecting it. My surprise grew when he wiped a tear on his cheek before lifting his head. I rushed towards him and cupped his face.

 

You : what's wrong Oppa ?

Tae Woon : nothing...

You : tell me please

Tae Woon : ani

You : Woo Tae Woon ! As a friend I should comfort you, what's wrong ?!

Tae Woon : go with him

You : what ??

Tae Woon : you can go with Zico. I'll handle the situation here. You have to go soon or it'll be harder for me to manage my parents

You : you... ho-w did yo-u know ??

Tae Woon : I heard the two of you. Go ~~~~. Be happy

 

He removed my hands from his face and stood up. Once again, he wiped his cheek. Had he been crying alone here because of me ??

 

You : I can't leave Tae Woon. I promised to take care of you

Tae Woon : I know you love him. Don't ruin your life for me

 

I was at loss of words. How to comfort him ? He was so weak. We knew each other since a few days and he was crying because of the idea of me leaving him. I pushed myself against him and hugged him tight. Tae Woon wrapped his arms around my body and rested his chin on my head.

 

Tae Woon : she left me for him..

You : nugu ?

Tae Woon : the girl who plays with us in the MV I showed you.. She was my girlfriend at the time. But Zico charmed her, when I brought her home he kept on flirting with her. And you saw him.. He's so much better than me.. She ended up dumping me for him in front of the audience when SPEED gave its first small concert. I had spent my spare money to buy her a ring and propose to her. She rejected me.

You : I'm so sorry Tae Woon

Tae Woon : you don't have to be. Just, be aware that you have to be leery of Zico. He's good at manipulating women

 

He was still speaking when my phone vibrated on the bedside table. I went to it and found that it was Zico.

 

" From : Ji Ho brat

Jagi I can't come back home for today. Will you go to the US with me ? Give me an answer before tonight so I can book the plane ticket ^^ Love you~ "

 

Tae Woon : do you want to go with him ?

You : I don't know... after what you've said

Tae Woon : I'm just trying to keep you out of trouble but I know that love can be stronger. It makes us blind

You : I'll think about it

 

I hurried to the bathroom and stayed there for a long time. I laid in the bathtub, closed my eyes and enjoy the music I put on. I was listening to my favorite pianist, Yiruma. Each time I had to make a decision or seriously think about something, I liked to have some piane as a background of the atmosphere. It was my secret not to stress and to relax. After refreshing myself, I went back to the room. A note was waiting for me on the bedside table.

 

Going to see Zico - Tae Woon

 

A sigh left my parted lips. I had never been so confused in the past. What was I going to do ? My heart wanted to run away with Zico but my reason told me to trust Tae Woon... Which option was the best ?
