“Annyeong, Jjong-ah” she greeted us.

“K… krys?”

“please have a seat.” Her father pleased us to take a sit

We ate our dinner in enjoyable. No. it didn’t feel like that for me. I could see Krystal kept staring at me. What the hell with that sight? I couldn’t understand. But Jongin’s mother seems like she like her. I meant, Krystal. Yeah, who doesn’t like her? A smart-pretty-humble person like her? Not like me. Jongin seems like he didn’t enjoy his dinner too. Well, yeah, how could you enjoy your dinner while you were meeting your ex? Your memorable ex.

“I’ll go to the rest room for awhile” I said to the others. Seriously, the reason why I said like that wasn’t because I wanted to urinate. No. Because I thought I need some fresh air.

I walked out from the restaurant. I didn’t go to the toilet. I went to the platform. I thought CO₂ will fill my lungs if I don’t search for some fresh air. The weather was so fresh. How could there’s a sunny night in fall? Huh. I breathed out.

“Long time no see” someone greeted me in cold tone

“ah, ne. nice to meet you”

“it wasn’t nice to see you again” she smirked. I guess you all has known who is she, right? I didn’t answer her words. I guess she didn’t need my reply

“seems like you didn’t enjoy your, dinner, did you?” she asked. I didn’t answer her words again. How could she ruin my plan to get some fresh air?

“you knew it right. I was so mad at the first time I knew that Jongin will marry you. But he said, he had no choice. Then, you took away him from me” she said

“but then, Kris is just the only one who always there for me. no ways to not like him. Since you knew, he’s more handsome than Jongin. Have you heard someone whom said,”you will get the bad result if you don’t do something with your heart?” I nodded

“so, that was effected for me. I found him was cheating behind me. I realized that there was only Jongin, who always accept the real who I am. So, I asked my father to be his parents’ partner. The chance came to me to get closer to him again”

“prepare your self to lose him, Sul. I will never waste the chance. So, I can take him from your side. Sooner, or later.” Then she left me

How shock I am to find there’s Jongin at the door watching us. Krystal approached to Jongin

“Jjong, it’s nice to see you again” she hugged him in front of me. Jongin closed his eyes for a moment. Yeah, his feelings towards her hasn’t changed anymore I thought

“You’d better go now. Your parents are heading to go now” he pulled off his body from her hug

“ah, I will go now. See you latter, Jjong” she kissed Jongin’s check. God, how could this happen to me? I was frightening at that time when he came to me.

“are you okay?”

“of course I am”

“but it doesn’t seems like you’re okay”

“I’m not lying. Seriously, I’m okay”

“liar”

“who?”

“you”

“no I’m not”

“yes you are”

“whatever”

He grabbed my hand to get closer to him. He hugged me so sudden. I could smell his scent. The scent whenever he was close me

“Don’t be worry” he said

“don’t hear what is she saying, okay? I beg you a favor this time” I just nodded

I came to Jongin parents’ house finally. Such a tiring night. Yep. To see her again. I don’t know why, but I got a bad feeling for this.

“have you looked that?” she kept yelling because of that moment. Yeah, Jongin’s noona kept yelling everything. She doesn’t like Krystal’s eonnie. What’s her name? if I’m not mistaken, her name is Jessica. Yeah, both of them have an international name because they’ve lived in US

“what eonnie?” I asked her. Actually, I knew what she meant

“her style. Uuuh I don’t like it. She showed us like she’s the most beautiful girl in the world”

“Sul, you look at her bag, did you?”

“ne eonnie. Wae?”

“that’s a limited edition in this world. Hermes launched that bag only 10. 10!”

“and she had it. I’ve tried to get it. But I couldn’t. those bags has sold out. Goddamn” she added

“Sul?” she called me

“ne eonnie?”

“you didn’t listen my grievances, did you?”

“anyio eonnie. I listen you”

Actually, I didn’t. why? Because that moment kept rushing my mind

Flashback

“don’t be worry. Don’t hear what is she saying okay? I beg you a favor this time” he hugged me so sudden

“hmmm” I nodded

“but, why?” I asked him

“I don’t know. I knew she will do everything. Whether bad or good. She will do everything to get her desires”

“gezzz, I knew that too. But, why?”

“I don’t want you to be hurt” he said. He extricate his body from mine

“Kajja, Sulli-ya” he grabbed my hand. We met his mom in the corridor when we wanted to meet them

“Jongin-ah, finally you came for so long” his mom said

“mianhae eomma. I didn’t know where should I find Sulli”

“Sulli-ya,  please don’t make the situation tougher than it should be” his mother nag at me

“mianhaeyo, eomma. This is all my fault”

“eomma, please don’t be mad like that to Sulli. That isn’t her fault” he assisted me

“Jongin-ah, you’d better meet them before they leave. Kajja” she grabbed Jongin’s arm and left me alone. Hey, I’m the one who’s his wife. I walked behind them

“I’m really sorry to make this so long. It shouldn’t be like that. I’m really sorry” she bowed to them

“haha don’t be like that. We tolerate that. The hotel is big, to find a person”

“ne, my father was right, eommonie”

“aigoo, you’re so kind, Soojung-ah” Jongin’s mother seems she really likes her

“geurae, we have to go now. It was great to see each other” her father said

“that was great for us too” his father replied

“geurae, annyeong, eommonie, ahbeojie” her sister said goodbye to us

“annyeong haseyo” we replied

“annyeong, Jjong-ah. I hope we will meet each other soon” Krystal smiled to Jongin

End flashback

“Sul, you see that, didn’t you?”

“what, eonnie?”

“Krystal tried to seduce Jongin. How could you bear it? No, I meant, you were blind, or tried to be patience? To see another girl tried to seduce your husband, and you didn’t seems it’s really matter?”

No eonnie. I saw that. I realized. But I knew if I mad to her, it would be harder than before. And realized that Jongin still have a feeling towards her.

“ah eonnie. I think that’s too much. We’re friends since we were in high school. I thought it was a normal thing. Since we haven’t met each other for so long”

“gezz, you’re fool. You have to see that clearly. I worry if someday she will take him away from you”

“haha, that won’t”

Yes, that will. Whenever, whatever, the reason is.. but he will leave me. sooner or later
