Love Is...I stared at the ceiling while lying down on my bed. It is already 2:30 am nut I am still wide awake. I could hear Chloe's slow breathing indicating that she is in a deep sleep. It has been a long day and honestly, I feel so drained. I kept on thinking about what Jiyong said earlier and I don't know what to say. I am so confused right now.
I jumped a little when I heard the front door slam. It must be Oppa and he just got home. I got out of bed and wore my robe. I slowly opened the bedroom door so as not wake Chloe up.
I went to the kitchen and saw my brother drinking water. "Oppa." I softly called him. he jumped in surprise. "Hyun Ae! You scared me. Why aren't you asleep yet?" he asked me.
"Oppa, you think that afetr everything that happened today, I would still be able to sleep.? Oppa, I seriously am thinking of leaving right now." I told him honestly. "Leaving? Why? Because of what happened today?" He asked, looking at me. I could see that he is as confused as I am right now.
I nodded at him. "Neh, Oppa. I thought that by coming back to Seoul, Chloe and I would get to start a new life but I was wrong. I felt that I have just brought my daughter closer to danger by coming here. I felt like a monster for putting my daughter in this situation."
"Hyun Ae, look at me. I was the one who made a huge mistake. If only I had not been so reckless the other night, this would not have happened." he told me, regret lacing his voice.
'Aniyo, Oppa. We both know that sooner or later, we would all be in this situation. It just so happens that it was much sooner than what I was expecting." I told him.
"Ani. If only I hadn't been so angry, I would have thought about this rationally." he said sadly. "Oppa, it's okay. We can get through this right?" I asked him, patting his hand.
"Of course and now, not it not only Jiyong
