A TIMED CONFESSION

Description

Timing is very important. "Great things come to those who wait." Waiting for the one you love or asking the one you love to wait for you so that you will be able to protect her in the future. This one shot is inspired by Running Man EP 206. 

Foreword

Ji Hyo finally ends her contract – not renewing it. She and Baek Chang Joo are in good terms with each other.

They are in the meeting room and both of them signed off the contract.

Chang Joo offered his hand to Ji Hyo for a friendly handshake. She shook it and smiled to him.

Both of them are really in loss of words.

“Too many things had happened in the last few years. Thank you for loving me. I am sorry that I am not able to love you. Thank you for forgiving me and helping me when I am wrong and in need. Live well and be happy.” she said to him breaking the silence and handshake.

She walked to the door and Chang Joo look at her walking away and the door closing behind her.

When she was walking out the door. “Be happy and really happy. That is the last thing that I can do for you. Thank you for making me believe in love again. Now go to that person – Kang Gary.” She turns back and gave her last smile to him and the door closes.

Ji Hyo is now independent – not under any agency. Even though she is still in consideration to enter Leessang Company but in the meantime she is wants to enjoy this freedom.

There are a few reasons that she wants to join that company. Well the main one is Kang Gary of course. She has been hiding her feelings for so long and ignoring it by pretending that she is just playing but she is not. Now she doesn’t have to hide it anymore. The second reason is, Leessang Company is a company that helps people with passion and able to make living with that passion – not idol and money making based. Ji Hyo always had a passion for acting and she is glad that she is able to put food on the plate and pay bills with it – not aiming for fame and money. Third reason is that she had a bad experience with her old agency before she joined C-Jes, where she is forced to take a movie role (Frozen Flower) because the company knows that this type of movie will make millions.

The first person that she announced the good news to is Yoo Jae Suk.

“Oppa, my contract finally ends. I can openly express my feeling to Kang Gary already!”

“Good for you Ji Hyo-ya~ Now the only thing that both of you need to do is get married.”

“Oppa, stop joking around.” She said blushing and feeling embarrassed.

“I am not. I want to officiate the wedding.”

“Oppa~. Hajimaseyo.”

“Ji Hyo-ya, I am busy now. See you on Monday.”

“Okay. See ya”

Gary, Haha and Jong Kook is having a drink together.

“Congratulations, my brother!” Haha said to Gary shaking his hand and patting his shoulder.

“What for? What is the meaning of this?” looking loss and confused causing Jong Kook to chuckle.

“He didn’t know yet?” Haha asked Jong Kook.

“I was about to tell him but you decide to congratulate him first.” Jong Kook replied.

“Sorry, I was too excited.” Haha said grinning away.

“Tell me what?” Gary asked both of them.

“That Ji Hyo ended her contract with C-Jes Entertainment officially and has no plans to renew it.” Jong Kook answered.

“Do I need to explain what this means or you already connected the dots?” Haha asked the blurred-looking Gary.

“She gave up lots things of this because of me – because she loves me. But am I worth it? How can an angel love someone as lowly as me? I have always tried to keep a distance between me and her.” Gary murmured while connecting the dots.

“Love has no distance and can’t be measured.” Jong Kook replied.

“If I was given a chance like you. I would have make this right and love her dearly with all my heart.” He finishes his sentence and gulp down a shot of soju.

He was not talking about Ji Hyo. He is talking about Eun Hye. When both of them were in the variety show called X-Men he thought it was just for fun and show but he fell in love and it got serious. They were known as the Sunday Couple and got into a scandal, up till now he and Eun Hye cannot be together for various reasons.

“I’m sorry hyung.” Gary sincerely apologies to him.

“It’s okay. It’s all in the past – a past that can never be corrected, forgotten and a past that cannot be continued to the future.” He replied before gulping down another shot of soju.

Gary knows very well that Ji Hyo and he might be in the same situation as Jong Kook and Eun Hye if both of them were reckless. That’s why Gary hides his feelings for her and loves her secretly because the press and tabloids can be pretty mean. Now is the right time. It’s now or never. Gary can be her protector and shield now. He always had to answer carefully to interviews and be careful of anything he said so that her image as an actress will not be negatively affected. Ji Hyo was also careful when it comes to this matter. Gary can take care of her now.

“Are you going to confess to her?” Haha asked curiously.

“Yes. Definitely. But I don’t know when, where or how. Maybe when the time comes and when my heart says so and when I decide to follow it.” He replied with determination.

“Good for you, Gary-ah~. I wish you happy ever after with her.” Jong Kook sincerely wish happiness for his brother.

“Hyung, you are getting drunk. Let’s go home.” Gary said while supporting Jong Kook with his shoulders and Haha on the other side.

Finally it’s Monday and they are filming Running Man EP (206).

Both of them are teamed up together again but also with Ji Suk Jin A.K.A father-in-law to Gary and father to Ji Hyo. Suk Jin heard everything from Jae Suk so he gave them privacy when he can and he did.

It’s was really awkward and they don’t know how to open up to each other after hiding their feelings for so long.

The Monday Couple held hands and strolling hand in hand. Both of their hearts are racing and they are pondering in their heads on what to say.

Gary went straight to the point and asked her. “Was there a time that you liked me at least even for a moment?”

“There is. There was a time that I thought that you were really cool.” She replied.

“Then, Oppa was there a time that you looked at me as a woman?” she asked him back.

“There was a time that you looked like a woman to me.” He admitted.

“If I confess during the time when I looked like a woman to you. Would you have accepted it?” she asked curiously.

That question took him off guard and he got confused for a moment but he got back to his senses and replied. “I think we would have met like the wind.”

Feeling a bit disappointed she asked him another question. “During the time when BIGBANG came to the show, did you really want to kiss me?

Gary had to tell the truth and replied. “I really wanted to kiss you that day since morning. From the moment I opened my eyes, I wanted to kiss you. The timing was good. It was not something that I did; it was something that my heart did.” He admitted to her.

“Can your heart do something again?” she asked

“Yes.” He replied

“What will it do this time?” she asked again.

“It will love Cheon Song Im forever.” He confessed looking at her eyes and pulling her slowly to a hug.
