Chapter 13 - The peace before the storm

The heiress's love

After a long hiking day, Ji Hyo and Dong Wook decide to rests their tired body in the warm Jacuzzi in front of their suit.

  • My feet are sore from the hiking to day – Ji Hyo coddles
  • Should I massage your feet? – Dong Wooks say while reaching for Ji Hyo feet.
  • Really? – Ji Hyo excitedly says
  • Even your feet are pretty – Dong Wooks says while massaging Ji Hyo legs.
  • You are such a gentleman. Did you always take care for your exes like this?
  • No, just you. You may not believe me but you are my second girlfriend and with my first girlfriend we didn’t spend that much time together.
  • Jjinja? Is she an actress too? – Ji Hyo curious
  • Yes she is.
  • Why did you two break up?
  • Because my parents don’t want to accept her and I promises them to follow their wish about marriage. From that on, I tried to hold myself back from getting in relationship since I don’t want to get anyone heartbroken again. She was devastated when we broke up – Dong Wook softly say
  • So why you stop holding yourself back to me then? What if your parents don’t accept me?
  • How can my parents don’t accept you? They had their eyes on you in the first place. Plus it won’t be a matter if they allow it or not any more. You just like a magnet that keeps pulling me to your direction. I keep thinking about you and it drove me crazy. I even made a slideshow of you and show it in my dark room whenever I’m lonely. I rather lose everything to be with you than going crazy for not be able to be with you. – Dong Wook says while looking at Ji Hyo lovingly
  • Am I really worth it Dong Wook ah? – Ji Hyo softly says
  • You worth a thousand time more than that. Don’t you ever doubt yourself ok? – Dong Wook says while keeping on massaging Ji Hyo feet

Ji Hyo suddenly land a kiss on Dong Wook lips – Thank you Dong Wook ah – she says

Dong Wook looks at her and smile brightly – I wish we can stay here forever – He says

Their loving moment is interrupted by Ji Hyo’s cell phone

  •  I have to take it. It’s Jong Kook oppa, he is probably worry since I disappeared so suddenly and didn’t contact him for the last 2 days. – Ji Hyo explains to Dong Wook
  • Sure, go ahead, don’t mind me – Dong Wook smiles and says
  • Annyeonghaseyo oppa – Ji Hyo answers her phone.
  • Are you okay? Why did you disappear so suddenly? – Jong Kook asks
  • I’m ok oppa, don’t worry. – Ji Hyo says
  • You are in Jejudo with Dong Wook, aren’t you? – Jong Kook asks
  • How do you know oppa? – Ji Hyo is surprised
  • You should read the news. There are pictures of you and Dong Wook walking around the mall everywhere. What happened Ji Hyo ah? I thought you are dating Ju Ji Hoon – Jong Wook asks.
  • It’s long story oppa. I will tell you when I’m back in Seoul.
  • You better come back early Ji Hyo ah. Ji-hoon is going cray looking for you. He even came to my company to look for you. He said he couldn’t contact you. Are you guys having problems?
  • I will tell you about that later oppa. Do you want to say hi with Dong Wook, he is in the Jacuzzi with me now?

Jong Wook feels like frozen when he hears Ji Hyo and Dong Wook are in the Jacuzzi together. It was depressed enough to see their dating pictures on the news but now hearing them enjoying the Jacuzzi together, he really doesn’t know how to react any more.

  • Oppa, are you still there? – Ji Hyo asks after Jong Kook keeping quiet for too long.
  • N-ne I’m still here. Well I gotta go, I have a schedule coming up, please say hi to Dong Wook for me and please come back to Seoul soon, we need to do damage control asap. – Jong Kook lies to get off the phone since he knows he can’t hide his disappointment if he is on the phone with her even just a second more.
  • Ok oppa – Ji Hyo hangs up
  • Jong Kook oppa said hi to you – Ji Hyo says to Dong Wook
  • You two seem really close. – Dong Wook asks
  • Yeah, we are good childhood friend, he and Gary oppa always overprotected me. – Ji Hyo says
  • I feel like there is more than just a oppa- dongseang relationship between you two
  • Are you jealous with Jong Kook oppa ? – Ji Hyo teases.
  • Kinda. I can see he gave you really special attention on the MV filming and even on Running Man too. – Dong Wook says.
  • Don’t be silly, I am just a really close dongseang to Jong Kook oppa. I ensure you there is nothing between us. – Ji Hyo tries to convinces Don Wook

Their conversation is disrupted again but this time is because of Dong Wook’s cell phone

  • Dong Wook, where are you? – His manager yells on the phone.
  • Calm down hyung. I’m in Jejudo. Why? – Dong Wook says why putting his cellphone far away from his ear to avoid his manager high volume voice.
  • Have you even read the news? What with you and Ji Hyo? Are you guys dating now? – His manager keeps screaming.
  • Yes, we are dating, so what? – Dong Wook says while smiling at Ji Hyo
  • What you mean so what? Even if you are dating, you should keep it in secret; you should know this business already. Your parents are all freaking out after reading the news you dating an actress. They keep calling me about that since you didn’t answer your phone. You better get your back right now and handle this mess.
  • Arrasso hyung. We will come back soon. – Dong Wook hangs up with his manager.
  • Seems like the whole world is freaking out about our relationship. We have to come back to Seoul to take care of the mess we created. What do you want to do about our relationship? Should we come clean? – Dong Wook asks Ji Hyo
  • I don’t see why not but I think I will have more anti fan since I just stole the most desirable man in Korea – Ji Hyo laughs.
  • Are you sure, it may affect your career as an actress you know? – Dong Wook concerns
  • Well, even though it was fun being an actress has never been priority to me. I wanted to be an actress to get close to my star but turn out my star is just a piece of dirt so I don’t really care about being an actress any more. Plus, I have to take over my father’s company eventually since I’m his only child so I have to leave showbiz sooner or later. I’m more worried about you Dong Wook ah. I know how much you love acting. I don’t want your career is affected because of me. – Ji Hyo concerns
  • Don’t worry about me. I’m almost 35, it’s time for me to complete the promise that I made to my parents. I have to follow our family business too. Oh well, just enjoy last night and worry about those things tomorrow. – Dong Wook says why carrying JI Hyo in bridal style to her bed. He uses towel to clean her wet legs and cover her with the bathrobe.
  • Good night princess – Dong Wook says while landing a kiss on Ji Hyo’s forehead.
  • Don’t leave – Ji Hyo says while pulling Dong Wook down to the bed with her. – Let’s enjoy our last night here – Ji Hyo says softly.
  • Sure, princess – he says softly and holds her body tightly in his arms. Once again, they both dream about a beautiful green hill where the two kids, one boy and one girl are happily chasing each other.

Chapter 31: Well that was quite a fun story to read, and thank you for writing this! It mustn't have been easy to make a long and complete work and it was like straight up reading a drama, there was an overarching thing needed fixing (I almost forgot about her memory being gone and not having a mother?) and smaller archs where one finished and another one began but it's steadily moving forward towards a good ending. And yes I think it was a good ending, although it was a little strange to find it so soon after they just solved another problem but I'm glad things got happily resolved.
It was esp. nice considering that these two got development from being strangers to lovers, and they have that basis of teasing and friendship even more than just romantic gestures all the time (although it is appreciated and really sweet)!
It seems almost sad that everything is all tied up, it's good to see a happy ending but I think I've been spoiled by dramas to just cut to the "5 years later" gimmick when everything is all roses and sunshine, but this seems to be satisfying keke
Thank you for writing! ^^

Chapter 28: Wow, I can tell you put a lot of research into planning it out, the pictures were really lovely and it's nice that the couple has trust in each other instead of all this drama due to misunderstanding.
