Your POV

"I'll miss you, Jinnie," he said softly.

"Namu, do you really have to?" I asked.

"Mianhae. I'll come back for you,"

"When?"

"As soon as I can,"

"Give me a date. I'll mark it on my calendar,"

"Maybe 4 years. 5 years from now?"

"Exact date!"

"Can't, Jin, it's too hard," he laughed softly. I hugged him. He pulled away and raised my chin up so that I was looking at him. He leaned down and kissed me gently. I put my arms around his neck as his hands were on my waist. It lasted a few long moments then he pulled away. "Saranghaeyo,"

Here I was. Five years later and married to this guy who doesn't even care about me. Why does it have to be him? Of all people, why him? I bit my lip as tears started to roll down my cheeks. I hated him from the moment I found out that we were being forced into this marriage. And it was obvious that he couldn't care less for me so why were we stuck in this? And why did he have to come back?

"Hwang Jinhee, did you cry again last night? About the fact that you're stuck with him?"

"Yes. How did you-"

"Your eyes are red,"

"Oh. Why did he have to come back?"

"For you,"

"He shouldn't. Especially now that I'm stuck with him,"

"You shouldn't hate him so much. Maybe he cares for you but he just doesn't show it,"

"Fat chance,"

"Jinhee,"

"If he cares about me, then he should show it,"

"Maybe he's scared. He knows you hate him,"

"Yeah, yeah,"

"Yah!"

"What?"

"He's your husband! Try to care, even a little,"

"Not so loud, Bomi. Remember. We're hiding it,"

"It's not exactly hiding when you have that ring on every day,"

"I have to wear it. If I didn't have to, I would have thrown it away already,"

"You seriously hate him that much?"

"Yes,"

"Come on, he's a nice guy,"

"To you. Wait, nice?"

"Yeah,"

"Date him. I don't care,"

"No. He's your husband,"

"He acts like he's not,"

"He has to act like that,"

"Even at home,"

"Aish... This girl. You have to like him, eventually!"

"In a million years,"

"Hwang Jinhee!"

"If it was Namu, I wouldn't complain,"

"You still love him, don't you? Even after all these years?"

"N-no, I don't,"

"Tell me the truth! You were crying for nearly a month after he left!"

"I wouldn't love him for so long!"

"Really?"

"Yeah,"

"That hurts a lot,"

"You're hurt?"

"I'm hurt for him. He still loves you, you know,"

"How do you know?"

"It's obvious with the way he looks at you,"

"I never saw him look at him since he came back,"

"He doesn't want you to see him look at him,"

"Why?"

"He's nervous that you like someone else,"

"I don't!"

"You can't change the way he thinks,"

"But I still love him,"

"Tell him,"

"I can't,"

"Why not?"

"I don't know,"

"Is it because he's with his friends?"

"I think so,"

"It's just Gyu and Yeol! You've known them for years!"

"But they don't know me and Namu dated,"

"They should,"

"Should I tell them?"

"No,"

"Why not?"

"They'll tease me,"

"I'm confused,"

"It's hard to explain,"

"Bomi. What are you telling me to do?"

"Tell Nam Woohyun you still love him without letting Kim Sunggyu and Lee Sungyeol know,"
