Happy Reading ^^
Kim Hye Jin - pov
I think the last two weeks have made my life tired,
Ever since I had dinner with my parents, some foreign women came up to me and asked me my name, and then they slapped me or splashed me with water to my unscathed coffee
After I asked them why they did that to me, they said that they were an ex-boyfriend or an ex-sleeping companion Hajung had promised to be his life companion
Haaah....
Is this what it's like to be in a relationship with a former member of the playboy label?
When I complained to Hajung about an unpleasant incident it happened the first time for me,
Hajung was surprised because it turned out that the target was not only himself who became an outlet for the anger of his ex line, but I was also dragged because of Hajung's past actions
Hajung was used to getting such treatment from the girls he had thrown away and for him it was worth it given his evil attitude towards those women
But...
I am not a hajung who is used to getting tantrums than the girl who was dumped
This is so unfair to me
I didn't do anything wrong, but why should I get this treatment
Out of nowhere they know that my relationship and hajung already like a relationship like adult women and adult men in general
It was as if someone had deliberately spread this news so quickly that it reached the ears of people who knew hajung
Hajung once offered me to hire a bodyguard to stay by my side, but I of course rejected him because I did not want any more fuss or gossip in the seconds I graduated from college
Until a woman with a distended stomach approached me at a bus stop around my campus area and surprised me when she asked me my name
"Are you kim hye jin?" Asked an Asian woman with her jet black hair and long unravels
I watched the pregnant woman in front of me carefully.
Oh, my god
What else now?
"Yes, I am" I answered
"Can I help you?" I asked the woman in front of me
"If you're not busy, can we talk for a minute?" Ask the woman
I nodded my head, a sign of agreeing to talk to him
Arriving at the cafe where I was subscribed, I ordered directly to the barista table and allowed the pregnant woman to wait for me at the table by the window facing the highway
While waiting for the order to be completed, from afar I looked at the pregnant woman sitting restlessly, I could see her in the way she was constantly grasping both her hands and often sighing
"Hei kim hye jin" said a barista cafe who already knew me
I immediately looked at the man with his blonde hair and his posture, which was mostly muscle because he often worked out at the gym
It's chris, one of the baristas at my cafe
"Are you going to get an attack from that pregnant woman?"
"It looks like he was one of the victims of your new ex-playboy girlfriend" he said
"Aissh...holy ****! Shut up!" I said sewot to chris
"Even I don't know who he is" I said
"Relax kim hye jin, today me and hedric will protect you from the attacks of creepy women who will attack you since the last 2 weeks" he said confidently
"they will be afraid to look at my muscles and will not take a step forward to get close to you, as long as they do not know that actually in my heart, I have a feminine nature" Chris explained to me
Yeph...
Chris does not like women, rather he just likes the same sex and of course befriending men like chris is easier than befriending a gang of women who are very slang
"Thanks.but I think, I can handle it, chris" I said while hitting his left arm very hard because his muscles then took my asian dolce latte coffee and warm green tea for the pregnant woman
I smiled as I approached the woman when she realized I was coming with two drinks
"This take, I hope to warm you and also the child in your womb" I said
"So what do you need with me?"
"Is this related to hajung?" I asked the woman who got straight to the point
"I'm sorry to surprise you because of my presence, I'm naomi..."
"I'm here to ask for your help to bring me to Hajung"
"I want to hold him accountable"
"I hear you are in a relationship with him"
"It's very difficult to go to see him, I've gone to his office but the results are still nil" said the woman named naomi to me
I nodded my head while drinking my warm coffee, a sign of understanding what he was trying to say
"Then..where did you know that you had to meet me just to meet Hajung? I'm not her secretary who knows where she goes" I asked casually to naomi
"I-I know you from my relatives who said that you were in a relationship with Hajung"
"After hearing about a woman's close relationship and wanting to get into a more serious relationship, I immediately wanted to meet with Hajung and tell him that Hajung had to take responsibility for his actions" naomi said, which looks weird in my eyes
"So you mean...."
"The child you bear is the result of hajung's actions?" Ask to make sure
The woman was silent for a moment and then at last she nodded her head in a sign of confirming my answer
"That's weird*(strange) why the women who claimed to be victims of hajung's breng*ek act in the past appeared suddenly after I had dinner with her parents"
"It was as if they came in droves and turns just to keep me away from hajung" I grumbled intentionally to be heard by the pregnant woman in front of me
"Miss hye jin...W-what did you mean?" Naomi asked who stammered when she heard me grumble
"Nothing" I said smiling
"Unfortunately hajung is in a meeting outside the city to discuss his new project for the next 3 days"
"Maybe the day after tomorrow, I can bring you together with hajung" I decided
"N-no miss hye jin, I just want to ask you to convey my message to Hajung that he must take responsibility for his actions"
"I didn't want to see her, for fear of not being able to manage my emotions when I met her" said Naomi, who suddenly changed her mind after hearing me mutter to herself
"Miss naomi, you're so weird. Didn't you just tell me that you were trying to meet Hajung but it was very difficult because of the busy hajung"
Naomi was speechless and broke out in a cold sweat when I asked her that
"Did you suddenly forget your dialogue when you met me?" My words insinuate
"W-what did you say miss hye jin?" Ask what looks so clumsy
"No. I'm just saying if you suddenly forget that you have an appointment with someone else so you can't say it directly to the day after tomorrow" I said
"Of course not, I'll meet him the day after tomorrow and will hold him accountable" said Naomi, who eventually changed her mind again and decided to meet Hajung
"Well then if you please, I'll drive you home" I said kindly
"Why do you have to take me?" Naomi asked
"You don't see that your stomach has grown like this and it would be very uncomfortable to travel for your rights" I said
"It's okay, I'm also going home, so there's no harm if the taxi I ordered stopped by your house" I told naomi
He was silent when he heard my words
Quickly, I went outside the cafe and looked for a passing taxi
After getting a taxi, I helped naomi to get into the car carefully
"Where's your house?" I asked a woman with beautiful black hair
"I live in an apartment on jacqueline du pre street" replied naomi
For a moment I thought, is not it a slum that is famous for its high crime rate and most of them are illegal immigrants
"Hem..lt's fine"
"Sir please take us to jacqueline" I said casually
The taxi driver just nodded and went towards the road that Naomi was referring to
Along the way, Naomi seemed silent and just stared outside the car glass
"Where do you know hajung?" I asked naomi
At first glance I saw Naomi gulping her saliva before answering my question
"I met Hajung while working part-time at a karaoke place"
"At that time they held an office party and hajung drank alcohol until drunk, then..."
"Then??" I'm waiting for the story to go on naomi
"Then me and Hajung did a one night stand at a hotel around the area"
"I did not expect that my one night stand relationship with Hajung ended up having a child in my womb"
"I have to hold him accountable, however, to make my future fall apart"
"And I can't just choose a random person to live in place of hajung's responsibility"
"I must ask him to live with me forever"
"No male parent will allow me to marry his son if I know that I have had a relationship with another man" said Naomi, who sounded familiar in my ear
This is like a template from someone who looks familiar to me especially the events told by naomi are almost similar to me
Only difference, he was pregnant with the child of a man who did his one night stand hajung
Not felt when naomi spoke, the taxi driver asked us to go down on the corner of which road, considering we had arrived at jacquelin road
"That's my apartment, I'm going down here" said naomi
"What unit of number do you live in?" I asked naomi
"I don't think you need to know until such a detail as Miss Kim, we're not relatives who should know each other's place to live" Naomi told me
"Forgive me for exceeding your privacy limits" I said.
"See you the day after naomi, at the cafe that was exactly at 4 pm" I said while closing the glass of the taxi car
I saw Naomi walking slowly until she entered the apartment building that looked old and it seemed that the periodic maintenance of the apartment building was not done routinely
I decided to leave the area and wanted to rest in the apartment I was staying in immediately
******
I walked quickly through the campus garden to the hall because there was a morning class
But suddenly something happened to make other students and students gather to see the incident
At first glance I heard a screaming sound from one of the students who was surprised to experience the incident right beside him
"Hurry and get him to the infirmary!" Said one of the students who called his friends to help him immediately
"It's not best to take him to the nearest hospital's IGD"
"He complained of stomach cramps before falling unconscious" said one of the students who shouted earlier
"Haa..how is this?!"
"What if something happens to Jenifer?"
" i haven't seen him rest in days"
I heard some people were having a discussion and saw Jenifer fall unconscious in the campus garden
"Did he push himself again?" Excited one of the men with glasses to the girl who looks close to Jenifer
"I told you to remind the army chief to rest"
"You know for yourself, he's like a wild horse if his job isn't done" said the man with his pretty thick glasses
"Why are you scolding me, I'm not the bodyguard who keeps an eye on him continuously." said the gray-haired girl while tidying up her overdress that looked small.
Haaah....
Why they fight and not call an ambulance
I took the initiative to call an ambulance so that Jenifer could get help soon
"Can you lay it down on the park bench? Ambulance will be here soon so don't let him get cold" I said, who eventually interfered because they couldn't stand the fact they were fighting each other
Somehow I became guilty of Jenifer who one day refused her request to help her submit a request for funds from the campus event to the new foundation chairman
How would I like to help him if the new foundation chairman of my campus is park seo jin
I couldn't possibly see him anymore because I was tied to what I said on Hangan Island when he and the driver oh picked me up to come back here once again
Just as some people were about to move the jenifer, it suddenly dawned on him from his stupor
While holding the upper part of her heart, Jenifer grimaced in pain and tried to get up from his sleeping position
"No..."
"I can't be sick." jenifer said.
"Akkhh" said jenifer lirih while holding his stomach.
"Jenifer.endure, the ambulance is on its way here" said I who immediately approached jenifer.
"Kim.hye jin" called jenifer when he saw me.
"What's? An ambulance?" Ask jenifer back
"No. I don't need an ambulance"
" i..must go to the office of the chairman of the foundation today"
"They told me..."
"It will bring me together with the chairman of the foundation today after he finishes his meeting" jenifer said stammeringly
"Oh my goodness, Jenifer, you can ask other members of the organization to go there" I said
"Hell no!" Jennifer
"I have to hand it over directly to the chairman of the foundation, I don't want to do anything wrong in front of him"
"I'm afraid my members can't explain the need for funds in detail"
"Only I can do it" jenifer said stubbornly.
"No way!" Exclamation
"I'm sure he will definitely approve the proposal for funding for this campus"
"Now stop thinking about organizations and think about your own health" I said
"Do you have stomach ulcers?" Much
"Did you put your ulcer medicine in a bag?" I'm hunting
I think he had a stomach ulcer because he kept holding his upper abdominal area
"Kim hye jin, are you willing to replace me to meet the new chairman of the foundation?" Ask jenifer who ignored my question
"Only you can trust" continued Jenifer.
"Sorry, excuse me? What do you say, jenifer?"I cried until the people around the park who were crowding were a little surprised to hear my voice that was like shouting
"No! I can't jenifer, sorry" I said, throwing my face away
"How dare you to me, hye jin." said jenifer while crying.
"Are you going to ignore the dying man's request before your eyes?" Jennifer said in tears
Now I don't know if he was crying because of pain in his upper abdomen or because I refused his request
Yet...
I couldn't bear to see Jenifer pleading with me like this
I think he has tried his best to meet seo jin but he failed to do so because of the busy schedule of a CEO
"Alright." said I who gave up in the end.
"I just need to submit this proposal to his office and ask him to provide funds so that the college student farewell event runs smoothly, right?" I said while closing both my eyes
"Yes.you right hye jin, but you must know what the content of the proposal is, at least in outline" said jenifer who stopped crying
"You.still remember what my purpose is to make this campus farewell event when we talk in the tempo park ha.ri" said jenifer took pains.
"Kim hye jin, I really believe you can do it...."
" because I can't be misinformed about you and also the chairman of our new campus foundation" Jenifer told me
"Rest.I hope you will recover soon and be able to continue this very troublesome activity" I told jenifer.
"Thank you very much hye jin, you can take a request for funding proposal inside..."
"Ughhh.tasku" said jenifer trying.
"I always take her wherever I am.."
"So forgive me if the proposal is a little untidy" said jenifer regretfully.
I exhaled trying to hold my emotions
"If.you want a soft copy of the proposal, you can take it at..."
"No need, I'll bring you this as you ask" I said cutting jenifer's sentence
Before long, the ambulance immediately came and brought a portable bed and brought jenifer into the ambulance
"I beg your help, hye jin" said the girl with gray hair as she touched my shoulder
I just scratched my eyebrows using my index finger nails
As jenifer's request
After finishing the morning class, I immediately went to the edelweis office to meet seo jin using a taxi
Along the way, I only thought about how I greeted seo jin when I met later after the incident that happened on Hangan island
I kept breathing out and tried to calm myself down and had prepared a scenario
"Miss..your destination has arrived" said the taxi driver stopping my daydream.
I was surprised to find myself in the office of an edelweiss company
This 30-story building reminds me of carrying a suitcase containing hundreds of sheets of money to return all the money to seo jin
Surely some memories were present in my head while visiting this company with seo jin
I kept breathing and exhaled immediately before entering the building
I found a receptionist and was about to say I wanted to find park seo jin as promised to replace jenifer
But the receptionist was surprised to see me and bowed his body 90⁰ sign of saluting me
"Mrs sung deok mi, what do you need to do here?" Ask the recipe
"Are you here to meet master seo jin?" Ask the receptionist again
"Ehemm.." I cleared my throat because they still mistook me for deok mi
"I'm not deok mi, you can pay attention to me more clearly" I told the woman in a formal dress suit
He began to look at me from the bottom up
"I'm sorry miss, I guess you're the mistress of deok mi" said a surprised receptionist after realizing that I'm not a deok mi but just a person with a similar face
I smiled at the woman in front of me
"Is there anything I can help you with, miss?" Ask a recipe
"Today is the schedule my friend met with an appointment with mr. park seo jin to discuss the proposal for funding for the foundation campus in his office"
"Because my friend is sick and just lying in the hospital right now, I'm here to replace him" he said.
"Promise? Today?"
"I guess...you can't meet with mr. park seo jin today because he is still out of town to attend important meetings with shareholders and other company officials to discuss new projects" the recipeist explains again
Is this related to the big project that Hajung is talking about?
Hajung was also in a meeting a few days outside the city
Moreover, edelweis and rose estate companies still have a cooperative bond because of a marriage
Instantly I remember emma saying that deok mi and seo jin are divorced but the reality is that gossip is just a figment
I told emma repeatedly not to believe the rumors
Just now I was thinking of emma, it wasn't long before someone called my name out loud
"Kim hye jin!!" The voice of the woman filled the company's lobby
Of course nothing else and nothing, it is the voice of emma
The girl ran so fast that she grabbed my shoulder so hard that I almost lost my balance to stand up
"Stop running and yelling like that, you're not a kid anymore" I warned emma
"Hahaha.sorry, I'm too happy to see you in my office environment" said emma.
"Are you here to meet my boss?" Ask emma
"And.... changed that stupid mind of yours?" Emma's speech insinuating
"I was forced to meet your boss because I had to help someone" I said
"Hemms?? Somebody? Who?" Emma asked as she scrunched her forehead
I finally decided to tell emma about my current situation
"Hahaha...this may sound evil, but I am grateful that the army chief fell ill and his personal driver happened to be taking a long leave of absence"
" if not, how could you possibly want to come here" emma said
I hit Emma's shoulder hard to stop talking
"Aww.stop hitting me hye jin. Your punch is so hot tau!" Emma sewot
"Shut your mouth if I don't want to hit" I said
"But I think this is a good opportunity for you" said Emma.
"Whatchu mean? Good from where?" Ask me for wonder
"You can take the first step to reassure your feelings for my boss, whether you still have feelings or not before you allow Hajung to touch your body like the stuff of ancient civilizations" said emma and made me instantly remember my incident on the balcony of the apartment with hajung
I ruffled my hair when I remembered the incident
"Aishh.." grumbled.
"Why are you hye jin?" Asked Emma who saw my attitude become strange
"This is all because of your unreasonable words" I grumbled again
"Kim hye jin don't tell me you and hajung are already.." said emma disconnected while looking at me in surprise.
I looked back at Emma but her gaze turned strange and now she was smiling like someone who was about to pervert
"Wahh...remarkable kim hye jin your progress has grown rapidly" said emma as she looked at me with a perverted look that made me want to pull her hair
"Then how? Is it in accordance with the rumors that are circulating out there that the handsome young master is really great over the place tid..."
"I didn't do it with hajung!" I cut emma's speech
"Ohh..kim hye jin, are you lying to me now?"
"No problem, there's nothing to hide from me"
"How long did the young master hold him back while doing it with you?"
"15 minutes? 30 minutes?"
"Or don't-don't..."
"An hour?"
"EMMA DAWSON!!" my scream that made my voice filled the entire lobby
"Can you not talk about such perverted things?" Much
"You're emma's outrageous, especially in the office" I said, starting to lower my voice
"I...."
"Don't do anything dirty like you think as long as I'm near Hajung" I said
"Trust me emma"
"Hajung and I just kissed each other and then when they were in bed..."
"I was too afraid to do that with Hajung because of the shadow of the past about the events of the night in the parkhyatt hotel..."
"It's still recorded clearly in my memory as if it just happened yesterday"
"How can I still imagine his face while still together with Hajung?" I said in frustration while covering my face with both hands
"I'm sorry hye jin, I didn't know that you were reckless to allow Hajung to touch you." said the regretful emma saying inappropriate words to me.
"Haah.this is all because of your absurd stupid words that affect my mind" I said blaming emma.
"Me??" Ask emma back
I nodded my head at the omens of all this because of emma's words when she visited my place
"I'm just saying the idea that came to my mind, I don't think you're going to hear it much less do it" she said
"You know you're a rock-head girl?" Emma insinuated to me again
I narrowed my eyes at the sign emma was upset with him who kept insinuating me
"Well, I'm wrong with you, hye jin, I'm sorry" said emma, who was initially silent for a few minutes trying to understand the meaning of my gaze towards her.
"But I think with that incident, you can take the silver lining" said emma who still makes me not understand what the silver lining of what I experienced on the balcony.
"That means you still have feelings for my boss, it's just...."
"You're still dodging that feeling and trying to bury it with your rock-hard mind" said emma, who made me lose interest in talking to her at this time
"Emma. I think you should fulfill my request given that you feel guilty to me for accusing me of doing nothing with hajung" I said, switching the conversation
Emma's waiting for me to talk about her next move
"Give this proposal directly to your boss so that I can go home with a sense of relief" I said as I handed the file to emma
"Nope.." said emma casually as she shifted the file casually
"Why should I submit this proposal to master seo jin in your place?"
"The chairman of the force asked you to give it directly to my boss"
"If he asks about the content of the proposal, I can't answer it, because it's not me who made it" Emma denied
"You think I know the contents of this proposal in detail? after all, you already know in general that my college will be holding a concert on graduation day"
"You.as an alumna from the same campus as me, it's better to help me, right?" I replied emma
"But unfortunately as an alumni, I can't help you hye Jin, even if I help you submit this proposal to mr. seo jin, not necessarily he will agree and sign this funding proposal"
"It could be that my boss would say to do a graduation party without inviting guest stars and go through the graduation day process wisely"
"You know how dirty my boss is? You must have known longer than me considering you've lived with him for a few months" she said
"No will! He will definitely agree and sign this, trust me..."
"You just have to hand this over, the rest you can leave the room" I told emma
"That sentence you say applies only to you, miss"
"In addition to you, he will reject it" said emma.
"Why are you so pretentious to know emma when you haven't tried" said I who was getting upset with her who always had a tongue-lick with me
"Because he still has feelings for you, hye jin"
"For sure easily, he will grant all the wishes of the person he likes"
"I'm sure if you went to see him, without seeing the proposal, he would have signed it without asking you first" said emma
I was silent for a while while staring at emma
"Cihh, you're such a bitch to emma" I said annoyedly.
"Well, if you're reluctant to help your best friend, I'll do it myself"
"I'll prove to you that he will read it first even if it's anyone who meets him, me or me" I said
"Let's say he's the CEO, it's impossible to do such a reckless thing" I said
"But I'm upset that I couldn't submit a funding request proposal today" I said
"It was very difficult to meet him and I had to rearrange the schedule and re-create the appointment to the receptionist in order to submit this proposal" I said again
"Can't I just leave this proposal to the receptionist and hope your boss will sign it?" I asked emma
"Have you forgotten to tell me? just about 10 minutes ago you said that the chairman of your force had tried that but there was no answer whatsoever that he got for days" he reminded me
"If you have the heart to do that to your army chief, just do it" emma said
"Arrgghhh...This situation makes me confused, why is there such a significant difference in free time between hajung and seo jin?" I grumbled
"Even hajung CEO, I think he could easily meet me just for lunch" I said again
"Pfftt.you are plain or stupid anyway" said emma quipped.
"Stop booing me if you don't want to help me!" I sewot
"Hey kim hye jin, if you're having trouble putting him in the office, for fear of being stacked with other documents, why don't you just go to his house and leave it to the butler of master seo jin's house" emma
"You're going to be very upset about my boss's house, if I were you, I'd go to his house and do what I said" she said
"If you leave the proposal documents to his house, the possibility to be mixed with other documents is very little considering that the house of the seo jin is not an office that is always a lot of in and out of the company related documents" emma said, which makes sense to me
"Emma.." I said while hitting her shoulder.
"Thank you for giving me that brilliant idea"
"This afternoon after the end of the afternoon class, I will go to the house of seo jin to leave this proposal to aunt min, I will leave it to you, that way I also do not need to meet seo jin anymore considering he was meeting outside the city"
"I will contact aunt min about the progress of this funding request proposal" I said
"I just need his signature, I hope seo jin reads this proposal without having to ask for any explanation from me"
"Aahh..I know!!"
"While seo jin has questions related to this proposal, I just say to contact the head of the public, anyway as time goes by.."
" i think jenifer has recovered from her stomach ache" I said, unknowingly blabbing like a crazy girl with a face
"Haah, this girl starts to lose her identity as soon as she gets an idea to avoid the person she least wants to meet in this world" said emma, with a frown
********
As planned, this afternoon I went to the seo jin residence by taxi
When I arrived in front of the fence of the house seo jin, I swallowed my saliva before pressing the bell and talking to one of the house employees through a micropohone that was in front of the big fence of the house seo jin
'Ting.tong'
"Yes..good evening, can I help you?" Greet the voice of a young woman from inside through the bell
I brought my face close to the doorbell camera as I spoke to the woman who greeted me at the bell
Bel seo jin house can not only talk to each other, but can show the face of guests who want to visit his home
"Good evening, I am kim hye jin from chicago university, can I meet mr. Park seo jin?" I asked the woman behind this bell
"I am sorry but mr. Seo Jin is not avaliable now.."
"I know.i just.." I said cut.
"I just wanna give something for him, because I can't meet to him when I visited the office.."
"So...I decided to come his house" I said
"Please...I must give this document for him" I pleaded
But there was no answer from the woman who was opposite the bell of the seo jin house
I waited for a few seconds but there was no sound
"Hello???" My speech
"Are you still there?" Much
"Hello~~"
"Hell...."
"Ahh.nona kim" said the woman whose voice sounded familiar to my ears
"I'm sorry for your discomfort with waiting" said the woman again, I think this is aunt min's voice
"Please enter miss kim" he said again and immediately the gate of the big seo jin house was opened wide automatically
I entered through the gate of the seo jin house and walked through the grounds of the seo jin house that looked spacious
As I passed through the front fountain of the seo jin house, I saw some servants standing as if to greet me
Seen aunt min smiling towards me as if I was a guest of honor who was eagerly awaited her arrival
"Miss kim, I miss you so much" said aunt min suddenly hugging me as I arrived at the door of rumag seo jin
A few house servants lowered their heads towards me a sign of greeting and respecting me
This euphoria reminds me of when I was pretending to be sung deok mi
"Auntie min. I don't think you need to tell the waiter to do this to me" I told aunt min.
"You mean, miss?" Ask aunt min who still doesn't understand
"I'm kim hye jin not your great mistress named sung deok mi, so I don't think you need to welcome me like this" I reminded aunt min
But he just smiled at me
"Let however you ever be the great good-natured mistress who once lived here"
"It's only natural that we welcome you well, miss"
"This is not only my wish, but the desire of the servants who work here"
"They want to welcome you properly, miss" said aunt min who made me awkward
"Ahh.so" I said.
"Please go inside and sit down, miss" said aunt min
"I won't be here long I just want to ask you to hand over this document to master seo jin"
"This is a request for funding for my college graduation, considering that currently Mr. seo jin is the chairman of my new campus foundation and the chairman of my campus force is sick, only I can trust"
I told aunt min to hand over this file to seo jin after she came home later from out of town.then if she has any questions about this proposal, then, he could contact my army chief, Jenifer, and I slipped Jenifer's phone number into the map containing the proposal
"I've given contact phone number of people who are related to this proposal, please contact if mr. seo jin has any questions related to this"
"forgive me aunt min should trouble you like this..."
"MY DAUGHTER!!" exclaimed a woman who suddenly shouted when I was about to leave a request for funds to aunt min
The woman is song ji hye, who is the biological mother of deok mi
He ran over and hugged me tightly
I looked towards aunt min intending to ask what the call meant from song ji hye
"Madam, don't run like that. Later you can fall and get hurt" said aunt min to deok mi's mother
"How can I not run immediately when I see my beautiful and kind daughter" said deok mi's mother who still considers me as her biological daughter
"Sorry ma'am but I'm not deok mi your daughter" I said as I tried to take off her embrace
Song ji Hye took off her embrace and then looked at me sharply
"Basin' bad boy! Durhaka!" Shouted her mother deok mi while hitting my shoulder and then my back hard
"A long time no return home, then after coming back here you forget your mother!"
"Do you need me to hit harder, huh??!" Said ji hye who kept hitting me
Aunt Min was seen trying to flick her mother deok mi to stop hitting me
"Actually...what happened to lady ji hye?" I asked aunt min
"Since her husband was found guilty and had to be in prison for life, her health dropped dramatically continuously and often experienced memory loss"
"After regular checkups, madam ji hye turned out to have mild dementia but.." said aunt min disconnected.
"But what?" I asked aunt Min curious
"He just forgot his core family"
"She did not even consider the real mistress deok mi as her biological daughter but rather as a foreign woman living in this house"
"MWO??!*(what?!)" Exclamation
"It's the first time he's called his own daughter after seeing you, miss" said aunt Min
I was surprised to hear aunt min's remark telling me the condition of her mother deok mi that made me concerned
The entry of dong il into the prison made his beloved wife experience this condition, as well as deok mi which is not considered as his daughter by his own biological mother
Not only did I experience mental changes, my mother deok mi was also hit by a bad event that happened 2 years ago
"Araseo eomma!*(i understand mom!)" I cried to deok mi's mother
"I'm sorry I didn't recognize you, stop hitting me!"
"I will obey my mother's words and not do any more naughty things" I said again
Fortunately this method worked, song ji hye stopped hitting me and looked at me
"Aigoo..eomma ttal*(jeez.daughter mother) you finally turned into a good child" said deok mi's mother.
"now will you promise me not to leave this house again and to stay by your mother's side?" ask song ji hye
"N-ne eomma* (yes mother) I promise" said I who was forced to say so that he could calm down
"good son, you have now turned into a very good child, mother loves you very much" he said, stroking my hair gently
"now, will you accompany me to do ikebana?"
(ikebana a kind of craft in flower arranging)
"mom see in this park some flowers that bloom in early winter have begun to bloom, we should not miss it just like that" said deok mi's mother while leading me to the garden behind the seo jin house
for the time being I just obeyed his mother deok mi's will because I thought, I won't meet seo jin this afternoon because he is out of town now
during the ikebana, I whispered to aunt min asking when deok mi returned home. Because I had to get out of here before I met the woman
aunt Min told me that deok mi also will not be coming home today because some days working overtime replaced hajung as CEO in the company as long as hajung is not in place
thank goodness I still have a lot of time to accompany my mother until dinner time arrives
"deok mi dear, look" said deok mi's mother who made me focus back on her
"what do you think? is this camellia suitable if juxtaposed with this white chrysanthemum flower?" ask deok mi's mother
...
...
"nne eomma, noemu kyeopta*(yes ma'am, that's very pretty)" I was amazed by the ikebana handcrafts from lady song ji hye
although he has mild dementia and forgets his core family for being too strenuous to live a life, he still has good hand creativity
"cheogiyo ahjumma* (excuse me aunt)" said deok mi's mother suddenly called aunt min
"yes ma'am" said aunt min
"are you a waiter here?" asked deok mi's mother who suddenly made me stop praising the results of flower arrangement by mistress ji hye
"what lady, how can I help you?" ask aunt min who remains friendly
"i'm thirsty, please get me a cold drink" he said, laying down on the sofa
soon my mother looked at me carefully and then looked at ikebana again
" aigoo..agashi* (jeez...young lady) did this flower arrangement you made?" suddenly, deok mi's mother asked me more and more to realize that she had dementia
obviously a few seconds ago he finished creating a great masterpiece, but he easily forgot it and accused me of making a rich creation of this ikebana art
"anio eomonim* (not mother) it was not me who made this beautiful masterpiece, but you.you have a talent in art" I smiled
"Jinjaragoeyo huh?*(really?)" deok mi's mother was amazed
"hihihi.turned out this hand is still useful as well" said deok mi happy mother.
"by the way agashi*(young lady) you look familiar in my eyes"
" you look like my daughter"
"aigoo..what did I say?" said song ji hye while hitting her head several times with both hands
"you're my daughter, you deserve to look so beautiful when you smile..."
"eomma ttal, neo.. noemu ippuda, coengmal mianhae*(mother's daughter, you. very beautiful, I'm really sorry) for forgetting you in my memory"
"i don't want to forget you, I want to remember you for the rest of my life.."
"stop leaving your mother for even a second" said deok mi's mother who almost made me shed tears and chose to hug her body tightly
" get quiet mom, I'm not going anywhere and will keep trying to be next to you" I told song ji hye
" sorry for interrupting your time, it's time for you to take your medicine" said aunt Min who had arrived back after she went to the kitchen to fetch water for her mother deok mi
'tring'
in the group message it is written to add the source of the book as a bibliography so that our group assignments can get good grades and the results of the revision of my group assignment paper will be collected tomorrow afternoon
ohh damn's...
how could I go back to college to go to the library to get books as an additional source of bibliography
the time will not be enough if done tomorrow morning, at least tonight I must stay up late to complete the task of this group if I get a book on economic philosophy, but where should I get that book if there's no library around?
ehh...chakamanyo*(wait a minute) library said you? of course around here there.you forgot if the seo jin reading room is a paradise for book lovers?
I think seo jin has a wide variety of books on economic philosophy to complete my group tasks
I reckon...
I can borrow a book from seo jin for about a day or two, then come back here to return it while he is at work
I don't think he'll realize that he lost a book or two from his reading room
"Aahh..shireo!*(want to!) Why should I drink something like that? I'm sick of drinking it" exclaimed deok mi's mother who was sulking because she didn't want to take medicine
He even threw the medicine along with the vitamins that were in the packaging onto the floor
Some of the servants were a little troubled at the attitude of song ji hye
"Eomma..why throw away your medicine? Don't you want to get well soon and go clothes shopping with me?" My words tried to persuade song ji hye not to sulk
"I wonder why they always force me to drink that thing called medicine? I'm not sick"
"I felt sleepy after drinking one of those things"
"After I wake up, sometimes I will forget something that happened to me, I hate it" said deok mi's mother
"Eomma.just if you don't drink it, you'll forget everything even you'll forget how to make a masterpiece like this"
"The worse you'll forget me"
"Do you want to forget me, mom?" Much
"Maldo andwe*(ga possible) even though I forgot, after seeing your smile, I will instantly remember you that you are my daughter" replied deok mi's mother
"Also your mother will forget me, so I beg you to take medicine regularly even though you are fed up"
"Ok ma'am?" Much
"Hemm...good for the sake of my beloved mother's daughter will struggle to take this medicine, as long as you promise to always be beside me ok?" Song ji hye to me
Some servants took a new medicine and gave it to my deok mother
That's when I had the chance to talk to aunt min
"Auntie min, sorry to trouble you again" I said
"What is miss? Just tell me, do not hesitate because you have also helped me persuade mistress ji hye" replied aunt min
"Mmm...can I borrow some books from master seo jin's reading room?" Much
"I need a book to reference my college assignment, I have to do it tonight, I won't have time to go to college right now" I told my aunt
"Ahh.it" said aunt min doubtful.
"I only borrowed it two days, ani*(no) even I think it's only one day"
"So before he came back from out of town, the book I borrowed was back in place" I said
"Well lady if you're sure lord seo jin won't realize that his belongings are not missing" said aunt min giving me permission
"Gomawo* (thank you) aunt min" I said sumringah as I went up the stairs so I could get to the second floor immediately
"Deok mi-aa where are you going?" Asked deok mi's mother who realized that I wasn't sitting next to her anymore
"I'm..."
"I want to go to the toilet, wait a minute, I'll be back" I said with a smile
Deok mi's mother seemed calm as I said I was going to the toilet
"Hurry back, I don't want you to disappear in front of me for too long"
"Nne eomma*(yes ma'am)" I said as I ran up the stairs
"Ahh miss, wait a minute!" call aunt min who made my step stop
"You can put the documents you brought earlier to the desk at the reading room of Mr. seo jin"
"I'm sure he'll find her and ask me" said aunt min
"All right.." I said agree and received the document proposal.
I have reached the 2nd floor and was in front of the door of the seo jin room
As soon as I opened it, it looked like a brown sofa right in front of the bed.
Instantly I recalled that it was my favorite sofa when I spent my free time as a deok mi while watching television if seo jin was in the office or was busy with his work in the reading room
For a moment, I did not go straight to the seo jin reading room, but rather to some point that I had stopped by during my stay here
I headed to the bathroom which was a safe place when me and seo jin were about to discuss something secret so that my identity would not be discovered
Even I remember sleeping in the bathroom bathtub and pulling out the curtains to escape from the seo jin room through the bathroom window while trying to save hajung trapped in an empty warehouse
I woke up from my nonstalgia and started to focus on my purpose here
I immediately went to the seo jin reading room and started looking for books on economic philosophy
I began to sort through books related to my duties
If only I still lived here, maybe I wouldn't have to bother doing work on campus until the library closed
After a few minutes passed, I decided to take two books that I thought were perfect for reference
As I took the book off the shelf, I heard the sound of the room door opening while I was still inside the seo jin reading room
I reckon..
I was looking for a book too long until my aunt picked me up here, I thought
Just as I was about to step out of the reading room, I was shocked by what I saw from the opening of the reading room door to the slightly open room and made me retreat back
Did I see wrong??
Can't it be that it's him??
I made sure to once again wait for a figure that I didn't want to see through this gap in the door
I heard the sound of footsteps of someone who was inside the seo jin room
Until the figure of a man with a high posture strapping walk through the reading room with his leisure while taking off his light brown coat that he wears and then to the wardrobe clothes to change clothes
Just looking from his back I already knew that the figure of the man was park seo jin, the great master of the owner of this house
How could he have gone back to Chicago??!
Hasn't he been out of town for a few days?
Was the meeting canceled?
Aish...
This situation is driving me crazy
Anyway I have to get out of here before he knows where I am
I used the opportunity to leave the reading room while seo jin was in the wardrobe to change clothes
But the time was not enough, I heard the sound of the closet door from the wardrobe closing and immediately I headed for the bathroom which was the closest place for the next hiding
While I was in the bathroom, I immediately looked for a spot where I could hide
I began to hear the sound of footsteps being dragged until the footwear rubbed against the room carpet. That means seo jin is heading here
In a panic I immediately hid behind the curtains that covered the bathroom window
I put the book I hold with the origin. I put both books on top of the small cabinet sink while hoping seo jin is not aware of the existence of the book
I jumped up trying to reach for the window iron so I could hide my legs from being grounded because these curtains were not dangling down to touch the floor, so that I was afraid seo jin could see my shoes and eventually I would be found out that I was hiding and sneaking into his room
My body hung in the air and only capitalized on the strength of the muscles of both my hands
Seo Jin opened the bathroom door and I think from the sound of water gurgling, he was in the sink
I didn't know what he was doing because my face was covered with curtains
I think five minutes have passed and my hands have gone numb from hanging on for too long.
A cold sweat started popping up on my forehead.I tried to encourage myself to stay in this position and was confident that I could get out of here without being caught
As if my prayers were answered, I heard the voice of seo jin's cell phone ringing and he started to head to bed and then came out of the bathroom
Instantly I took my hand off the iron window and both of my feet began to tread on the floor
Quickly, I opened the curtain and headed towards the sink to pick up the book I had previously placed on top of the small closet
However, when I just touched the book on top of the sink cabinet, I heard seo jin talking while walking and heading to the bathroom
I frantically returned to my hiding place and reached for the iron window and covered my body with a curtain
I ignored the condition of the book
Seo Jin talked over the phone with someone
"You can reschedule with the shareholders" seo jin said by phone
"For that project I'll take care of it..."
Aishh..jam!
Why am I such a thief?
I shouldn't have to borrow seo jin's books secretly
If only Hajung had not been meeting outside the city, I might have borrowed the book I was looking for from the library at his house
You stupid hye jin!!
You idiot!!
Just now that I was berating myself, suddenly the curtain that closed my body opened to make my eyes jump out in shock
"Get out you thief!!" Exclaim seo jin while swinging a golf club towards me
I reflexively closed my eyes as the golf club hit one of my legs
The punch was pretty hard on my left foot to make me squash
"Aarrayghhh!!" I reflexively shouted and released both hands because I felt pain in the legs
"kim hye jin??" call seo jin saying my name because he does not believe what he sees
But I didn't fall under the floor but someone caught my body so I wouldn't fall and prevent my knee from getting hurt
I opened my eyes and saw seo jin holding me by holding both thighs to my stomach so that I remained in the parallel position as I was hiding, my feet did not tread on the floor
The head of seo jin was right on my chest so I could look at his face by lowering my head
A few seconds passed in this position, as if my brain had not responded, just a feeling that played out to make my heart beat fast
We stared at each other until we heard the screams of people calling out someone's name from outside the seo jin room
"Deok mi-aa?*(where?)" Shouted a woman I knew
I think it was Madame ji hye's voice
That voice awakened me to return to the real world and hit the shoulder of seo jin omens to lower my body
seo jin lowered my body quickly as if he understood the code I gave him to stop carrying me, but as both of my feet stepped on the floor, he said, I felt pain in my left leg as if my ankle was reluctant to support my body's weight
I failed to stand up straight and almost fell down, but seo jin immediately grasped both hands trying to make me stand up straight
"neo gwaenchana?*(are you okay?)" seo jin reflex
I looked back at seo jin's face and slowly headed down.
How surprised I was when I realized that he was only wearing a towel that covered his waist up to his knees
Seo Jin is bare-chested and makes me feel ashamed to be close to her for now
"ahh..mian*(sorry)" I said while looking down and reluctant to look at seo jin because this is very embarrassing for me
Seo Jin took off my hand as if she realized that I felt uncomfortable being with her in this condition
I immediately left seo jin with hair covering my face and a limped path while enduring the pain of my left leg
While I was in the bathroom doorway, I stumbled over the carpet because my face was covered by my hair that I had deliberately put forward
"Aakhch...!" I cried when my forehead first hit the carpet hard
"Kim hye jin!"
"Neo gwaencahana?*(are you okay?)" Seo Jin asked in a panic as I fell
"Aishhh...."
I stroked my forehead with my hair
Haah.I'm going through the incident as the saying goes.
It fell down the stairs anyway
My left leg was already sore plus I had to fall down from tripping over the edge of the carpet
Seo Jin swiftly checked my forehead with both of her big hands on my cheeks
"Is your forehead okay?" Seo Jin asked and made me even more surprised because of her attitude
"Naega gwaenchana!*(i'm fine!)" Excited while pushing seo jin's shoulder hard to make him fall down sitting who was originally in a crouching position
"But your forehead is scuffed to the point of causing blood." said seo jin but I did not rub it
I tried to forget all my pain and wanted to get out of the seo jin room as a result of my own carelessness
I managed to get out of seo jin's room
But when I was in front of the door of the seo jin room, I met a woman who did not want me to meet at all
"Eomma chakamanyo.*(mother wait..)" said the woman and stopped chasing after song ji hye who was her birth mother for seeing me.
"Kim..hye jin??" Call the woman when our eyes meet
At the same time, seo jin was chasing me and he just came out of his room wearing his white shirt which he had not buttoned with his half wet hair
"Kim hye jin wait!" seo jin said to me
Deok mi looked at me and seo jin with a question mark
"What exactly are you doing in the room?" Deok Mi asked when she saw our current situation
How not?
I with messy hair then followed by the arrival of seo jin who came out of the room with a bare chest while wearing his shirt that he had not buttoned
It was as if we had just finished doing something that should not be done when adult women and adult men were in the room alone
Of course, it will cause misunderstandings to people who have just seen our situation like this
"Emmm me.." said I who had difficulty explaining to deok mi as the legal wife of seo jin.
"Yes!!*(hey!!) Mi sung deok!" Shouted song ji hye to me while hitting my shoulder hard
"Aww!!.." I said that I felt pain from the blow from his hand
"Where have you been? I've been looking for you everywhere"
"Mom thinks you're missing again"
"Based on a bad boy" said song ji hye who now hugged my body
Either I have to thank him or not
At least I can survive this awkward condition
********
"Ahahaha.." deok mi's laughter broke as we ate dinner together while hearing the explanation from aunt min, deok, me and seo jin about how I was able to be in this host room to cause a condition that causes misunderstanding for people who see it
"So...."
"You secretly went to seo jin's room just to find a book to reference your college assignment in his reading room?"
"Then you wouldn't have thought that today we would come and thought that seo jin was still out of town for a meeting?"
"Then seo jin thought there was a thief who entered his room because he saw a book scattered on the bathroom floor..."
"After that you got hit by seo jin in the leg?" Tanya deok mi who tried to design the scene of the chaotic incident that I experienced in the seo jin room
"It's a good thing that your leg didn't break because of the blow" deok mi said as he turned his fork to collect the spaghetti on his plate before putting it in his mouth
I just looked down at the food that was on my plate while hearing deok mi talk about my shameful behavior today
"Mianhae*(excuse me) hye jin, I didn't know that it was you" said seo jin to me who felt regret for accidentally hitting my leg
I glanced at seo jin and stuffed my mouth with spagethi using a fork
"Is your foot okay?" Seo Jin asked me
"N-ne*(y-yeah) I'm fine." I said awkwardly.
"At least it will be bruised and your path for a few days will be limp" deok mi said
At first glance I glanced at seo jin and it seemed he felt guilty and clumsy until he did not put food in his mouth
Instantly the mood returned to silence.
Before long deok mi cleared to melt the atmosphere
"Ehem..."
"After all, why are you acting so awkward?" Tanya deok mi while folding both her hands on the chest
"If you were to be ordinary, you wouldn't be able to stumble over a rug and get your forehead hurt"
"Didn't you often see seo jin bare-chested and walk around in a towel when you live on one roof together..."
"Ohukk"
"Kim hye jin are you okay?"
"Miss, are you okay?"
Said seo jin and aunt min simultaneously when I saw me who suddenly coughed when he heard deok mi's vulgar speech
I immediately grabbed a glass filled with water and immediately drank it so that the food that was stuck in my throat could be pushed and go down to the stomach
Me, seo jin and aunt min stared at deok mi simultaneously
deok Mi realized that the three of us were staring at her
"Is there something wrong with my words?" Said deok mi while raising both of her hands as if she felt innocent
"Yes!! Foreign woman" said song ji hye who suddenly hit the head of deok mi using a tablespoon
"Stop talking and eat your food" he said
"You're always noisy and telling the waiter like you're the big lady in this house" song ji hye told deok mi
Deok mi only frowned while holding the head hit by his mother's tablespoon
"Because of your actions, you made my beloved daughter choke on food, where is your courtesy towards the hostess and the host?"
"It looks like your parents didn't educate you in a good way" said song ji hye
"Waaahh...eomma*(mother) why are you saying such evil words and not thinking of me as your own biological daughter?"
"Wouldn't you tell me which one is your biological daughter and which one isn't even though me and hye jin have the same face?" Deok mi protests on her mother who suffers from dementia
"Are you a crazy foreign woman?!" Song ji hye
"You're just a copycat woman living pretending to be my real daughter"
"Although the rest of the world thinks you're my daughter, I won't be fooled by you cunning fox!"
"My real biological daughter, is the right woman beside me right now"
"Even though he had long since gone missing left me, but now he has promised to always be by my side" said song ji hye who made me stunned
"Isn't that deok my dear?" Mum deok mi's soft speech while looking at me
"It's a lot to eat so that you are always healthy and always be beside me at all times" said song ji hye while giving me a piece of dori fish as a main food companion menu tonight
"I guess only his mind always forgets, but his eyes also become forgotten and can not distinguish his own biological daughter"
"Does dementia affect the quality of both eyes?" Oceh deok mi annoyed
"Sung deok mi.." call seo jin while closing both eyes.
"Can we have dinner quietly?"
"At least your mother is in a state of calm at dinner like this and does not run amok as usual when you see you sitting next to her" said seo jin warning deok mi
Again, I felt awkward about the atmosphere of this family
I'm trying to swallow all the food tonight and I hope to get out of here soon and get back to my apartment
I guess after I finish dinner, I can take a break to go back to my own residence, but...
My deok mother kept clinging to me and was not out of her sight
When I was about to say goodbye and ignore my deok mother, she always hit me hard on the shoulder and berated me with the name of an ungodly child and a bad boy
It was like a little boy who was ripe for not buying a toy that he liked
The only way is to wait until my mother feels tired and sleeps asleep in her room
While in bed alone with my deok mother, she treated me like a child and read me a fairy tale book hoping I would sleep next to her
But it wasn't me who felt sleepy, it was precisely the mother deok mi who felt tired because she had told a book of children's fairy tales about wolves disguised as her favorite grandmother and intended to eat the little boy who lived in a house the hut in the middle of the forest
I pretended to sleep close my eyes so that deok mi's mother was happy because it managed to make me sleep
Well, at least my skill at pretending I use to make others happy
After making sure that my deok mother was sleeping soundly, I slowly shifted my body from the bed and stood up leaving my deok mother who was unaware that I had left before her
For a moment I saw the sleeping lady song ji hye sleeping with her innocent face
For about two years I did not meet him but when I met him again, his health had begun to decline drastically and did not pay attention to his appearance anymore
Her almost gray hair all made me stroke her slowly and kiss her forehead as if she was my own real mother
However, song ji hye loves her daughter very much, she became like this because of an accident that befell her biological daughter who had been in a coma
He rejects reality and tends to forget the harsh reality and assumes that his family is doing well
If not for her husband's cunning and greedy attitude, maybe song ji hye could live happily in the real world instead of her imaginary world
I exhaled and pulled the blanket up to my deok mother's neck to make sure she wouldn't get cold
I came out of my mother's room and went down the stairs to return to the apartment and rest
"I'm sure my mother must have slept so well that you could come out quietly from inside her room" said a woman who surprised me from behind after coming down the last rung
I looked back and saw that sung deok mi was drinking wine alone
"Do you want to taste a glass of it?" Tanya deok mi offered me to consume wine
"I don't think we have a relationship to be able to drink together" I said indifferently
"Cuti...."
"Hahahaha.." deok mi laughs suddenly.
"You still haven't changed hye jin, you're still the same..."
"Someone who still holds a grudge against me" said deok mi who began to get drunk
"Are you planning to hold your grudge against me until the end of your life without giving me a chance to do good to you?" Ask deok mi who caught my attention
"You..."
"Do you good to me?" I repeat deok mi's words
"I think I should not trust the words of people who have begun to get drunk" I said and turned my body to ignore his words
"Are you not satisfied to see the karma that I got as a result of my evil deeds to you, kim hye jin?" Say deok mi and make me stop stepping
"Did you forget your curse on me when you got out of jail after your trial day?" Hye jin continued
"Are you planning to curse me forever, kim hye jin?"
"Aren't you reflecting that the current state of the witch is you?!" Deok mi
"Stop talking nonsense" I said
"I will not respond to the words of drunk people" I continued
"Huuh...did you forget that I was sung deok mi? the queen who is so immune to alcohol?" Deok mi
"I am not you Kim hye jin, who will fall down even if only drinking half a glass of wine" continued deok mi and made me turn my body and walk over to him
"So what do you want to say haah?!" I talked to deok mi
"Did you really forget your curse?" Ask deok mi again
"Cih...does your life suffer as I see fit?" Ask me again
"I feel that your suffering is nothing compared to my suffering that you have given that turned my peaceful life into a life of hell" I said sarcastically
Suddenly deok mi grabbed my shoulder with both hands to my surprise
"Even though I know it's too late to say it, at least you're still listening to it when I can still breathe out in this world" deok mi said
"Mianhae kim hye jin* (forgive me kim hye jin)
"Congmal mianhae*(absolutely I'm sorry)" deok mi told me repeatedly
My heart felt a tremor as deok mi said an apology to me
And I almost cried when I heard that word come out of his mouth
It was as if the lines I wanted to hear all this time to treat my heart disease began to react and work to get rid of all the resentment I had been craving all this time
I try not to be satisfied with the deok mi speech I want to hear all this time
I brushed off the two hands of my deok who had grasped my shoulder and turned my body to regulate my emotions
"I don't expect you to forgive and forgive all my mistakes with you that are truly outrageous" deok mi said
"Just..."
"Only, I want to express my feelings that have been stuck all this time and want to say it directly to you"
"I guess all the feelings that are stuck in my heart will just disappear if I ignore them"
"But I think I was wrong"
"I can't ignore the guilt feelings for you as time goes on"
"In addition to my deteriorating living conditions"
"You know hye jin, I thought that by sending my father to prison, things would go well"
"But it didn't"
"It's as if your curse has begun to work for my life for having done evil to you"
"Slowly people who are close to me, start to forget me and do not love me as if I disappeared from the face of this earth, I think no one will cry for my departure" said deok mi
"Excuse me, did you just play victim?" I said that I heard deok mi's words
"You should be grateful sung deok mi, thanks to me..."
"You got everything you wanted right now"
"Your peaceful life, harmonious family relationships"
"In fact, I have made you excused by your in-laws for your past infidelity"
"You can repeat from the beginning to improve your domestic relationship even though you have to push me to the deepest abyss" I said emotionfully while pointing at deok mi's face with my index finger
Deok smiled to see me
"Kim hye jin, do you think me and seo jin still love each other?" Ask deok mi
"I don't care about your domestic affairs" I said resentfully and turned my body around again
"Me and seo jin are divorced" said deok mi deliberately to stop my steps
"I think you know best that the attitude of seo jin full of responsibility is very attached to him" said deok mi
"Not long after my father was tried and sentenced to life imprisonment, I am suing for the divorce of park seo jin" said deok mi
I shook my head at the sign of not wanting to know more about their household
I began to walk away from deok mi, but deok mi held me back by embracing my arm
"At least listen to me until I finish talking kim hye jin" said deok mi who insisted
"Don't you want to know why I'm suing for a seo jin park divorce?" Tanya deok
"I don't care" I said briefly as I tried to release my arm from the clutches of deok mi
"Are you reluctant to listen to me for still loving my ex-husband?" Deok mi mad
"Neo michisseo!!*(are you crazy!)" Exclamation
"If you don't love seo jin anymore, do you now love hajung?" Tanya deok
I was silent when deok mi asked me that
"Did you love her sincerely kim hye jin? Or are you using hajung as your only escape?" Ask deok mi again
"Should I answer your question that has nothing to do with you at all?" Ask me back
"Of course this is related to me, hajung is my cousin, I have the right to make sure she is happy" deok mi said seriously
"Pffft.." I held back a laugh.
"Since when have you cared about hajung?" Much
"Did hajung not tell you?..."
"Ahh.. I forgot, hajung once told me that you are reluctant to listen to things related to me and also park seo jin" said deok mi who surprised me
Since when did Hajung get so close to deok mi that he could talk about the problems of hajung's personal life?
"Since he served as CEO." said deok mi who seemed to know my question.
"I can guess what you're thinking through your face, kim hye jin" said deok mi again which upset me
"Araseo.araseo*(i understand..i understand)"
"I will not read your heart through your facial expressions" said deok mi who made me exhale
"But instead, listen to me finish talking and you can decide your next course of action to accept my cousin's sincere feelings or not" deok mi said and removed her embrace from my arm
"Can we sit together and chat like friends who haven't seen each other in a long time?" Said deok mi who was trying to get along with me
I walked up to the bench that was available near the mini bar and waited for deok mi to finish the story so that I could leave this house without being stopped by anyone else
Deok mi cengengesan when I obey his will that has sat sweet, a sign that I am ready to listen to him talk until it is finished
"You're right, when my plan was successful to send my father and his crafty men into prison..."
"I want to start all over, build a household with park seo jin and fix all the mistakes I made with him" said deok mi who began to speak
"At first I smiled happily because what I planned went well according to my expectations even though I had feelings of guilt for you that had sacrificed your life that was fine"
"I think your anger at me will decrease in a month or two"
"Because after all, I was the one who helped you and saved you from getting out of prison"
"At least I think we're breakeven even though you turned down my offer to reward you for compensating for messing with your life by pretending to be me"
"I never thought that your life after getting out of prison would be bad for your future"
"I think you can quickly forget your bad past"
"Until I realized that your curse that you were chanting to me, in the restaurant was actually happening"
"You cursed me so that I would never feel happy again as long as you still held a grudge against me"
"And you know what you say that I think is ridiculous, really makes me keep thinking about it"
"My mother's health has been in decline since my father went to prison until he could not recognize his own daughter and assumed that I was a foreign woman who lived in his own daughter-in-law's house"
"Either what you did with my mother all this time while I was lying in a coma, which I know...."
"My mother wishes I was you who had a kind and warm heart"
"More attitude seo jin who always think me like you"
"You know, before you took my place, Park seo jin never spoke casually and warmly with me"
"He was always talking formally and considered me like his boss and not his wife"
"Seo Jin even stroked my head gently for the first time as I complained to her who felt tired from accompanying my mother who kept tantrums and forgot who I was"
"I'm sick!" Deok mi
"Everyone around me thinks I'm you, even a lowly servant like auntie min..."
"It's brave to interrupt me when I speak and forbid me to drink wine during the day" said deok mi who began to feel emotion
"You only replaced me for no more than 3 months, but why does everyone think and believe that my deok really changed when in fact they already know that you are a copycat girl" deok mi said
"As if the gods were punishing me. He kept forcing me to remember you and all my wrong deeds to you"
"This is an insult to me"
"Just like they thought I was dead and didn't survive the coma and my life was replaced with yours and everyone liked you!"
"I hate that kim hye jin, so hate it"
"It's as if no one knows the real sung deok mi anymore and is easily replaced by your figure which is the fake sung deok mi"
"I don't have anyone who knows my personality, only Andrew knows me"
"Shouldn't I have to wake up from a coma?"
"Maybe everyone will be happy if I die and leave this world because no one loves me"
"You think you're the only one who suffers from kim hye jin?"
"I'm suffering too!" Deok mi
"Aren't you supposed to be aware?" My words interrupted deok mi's words
" That means you have to change your bad habits into a good personality and not look down on others" I continued
"Ania*(no)" debunk deok mi
"It doesn't matter whether I have to change my attitude or not"
"But I have to apologize to you in the right way, that way my heart will feel relieved and I live my life well without feeling guilty towards you" deok mi said
"You know, you gave me goosebumps" I told deok mi
"Someone as arrogant and antagonistic as you, feels guilty to me? Are you kidding me?"
"I will not be fooled again by you" said I who keep my defense to stay alert on deok mi
"You are able to control those around you to submit to you" I said
"Even as I know, even if you make any mistakes over and over again, there will be a man who will always forgive you for the umpteenth time like an anj*g who is loyal to you"
"Nothing else and not that's your husband"
"And you took it off by suing her for divorce?"
"Are you joking or are you testing your loyalty?" Ask me to wonder
"As you say kim hye jin, I am able to control others as I wish but..."
"Do you think it's love?" Ask deok
"Of course not, as you say.."
"I have a faithful man next to me like an anj*g but that's not what I mean by the feeling I call love"
"The real feeling of love is, when you feel comfortable and want to stay by her side at all times, not because of coercion but a feeling of longing when you don't see her"
"The warm attitude of seo jin when he considers me like you is what I want"
"It's not like an anj*g is loyal to his master"
"But unfortunately the warm attitude that he can only give me when he has not realized that I am a deok mi figure that he considers as his master"
"Ironically, I like the warm attitude of park seo jin when he thinks of me as you"
"If I ask seo jin to be warm with me like he thinks of me as you, I think I'll just feel a false sense of happiness"
"Where in fact does he like the figure of a simple woman like kim hye jin is not a complicated woman like sung deok mi"
"And I realized that the type of woman my husband's dream had changed because of my own fault for having wasted his affection for me sincerely"
"Now I think karma will repay me, after I started to like park seo jin and forget my former lover who has died, he actually likes the figure of you not me anymore"
"I once decided to be selfish just to get that false happiness by maintaining seo jin until the end of my life"
"But you know what seo jin is doing behind my back even though you're far from his sight and you're doing nothing to tease seo jin?" Tanya deok
"Secretly he found out how the life you lived after he realized that you had not been on the side of hajung"
"After he found out that your life was very sad in Korea, the bad days began to happen again"
"Even I can't hope I'll get all the happiness from park seo jin again"
"He is often seen daydreaming and unfocused with the world around him"
"It's as if the bad news about the life you lived during your stay in Korea, affects the life in the world of seo jin"
"All I know is if I keep seo jin to stay by my side, no one will get happiness"
"There is.I will only see the moments of seo jin's soul slowly escaping from his body if I continue to force him to remain by my side"
"In other words, I will let Park seo jin live like a zombie because his soul continues to come out of his body that keeps thinking about your life that is falling"
"Seo jin's transfer from you is just work"
"Put and night he continued to work and began to rarely go home. It reminds me of the past when she tried not to think about me when I was dating another guy while Andrew was alive" deok mi said
"Therefore when I began to realize that there would be no more happiness between me and seo jin..."
"I decided to take it off by suing for a divorce from park seo jin so that he could return to being human again like before" said deok mi
"Of course there was a big question mark on seo jin's face when I asked him to sign my divorce papers with her"
"But I explained to him, this is the only help I can give him for all the good he's ever given me in all this time"
"I don't want to be part of his responsibility to make his life suffer even though he never told me that"
"I know very well the character of park seo jin this one"
"he is a man in charge no doubt, but unfortunately he is not good at hiding facial expressions as well as you are easily guessed only through facial mimicry"
"Seo Jin is suffering because of me, I know that very well"
"I'm just a selfish person trying to pretend I don't know anything"
"But in the end, I suffered myself from seeing himself tormented like that"
"Am I not a strange woman?" Ask deok mi
"You're not weird" I said
"really??" Asked deok mi who still did not believe my answer
"You're not weird, you're just a crazy woman in my eyes" I said flatly
"Hahaha..please Kim hye jin, you are free to blame me if it makes you relieved and your revenge against me is lost" said deok mi
"Unfortunately I don't forgive people like you very easily"
"I think you're dreaming if you get forgiveness from me" I said
"You're more vengeful than I thought" deok mi said
"Are you not thanking me? Because I have filed divorce papers with seo jin, he can go to your hometown to pick you up until you can come back here again" said deok mi
"I never expected seo jin to come to Korea" I said
"All I know is, I don't want anything to do with you two anymore"
"If only seo jin hadn't interfered in my family's affairs, and he wouldn't have told my parents about the bad events at the parkhyat hotel, I won't be able to come back here to continue my studies" I told deok mi
"If you feel that park seo jin does not like you anymore and is crazy about me..."
"You should try even harder to reverse the feeling of seo jin like you used to still love you, deok mi" I said
"If you ask me how? I don't know."
"Find the way out yourself because you made it a mess in the first place"
"And now you want to rearrange it as if nothing happened" I said
"And one more thing." I said before ending my conversation with deok mi.
"Your suffering is not comparable to mine, sung deok mi"
"At least you've never had an anxiety disorder that makes you experience shortness of breath and can meet death anytime and anywhere in less than a minute"
"At least you don't have to worry like me who's afraid of losing my mind and forgetting who I really am and then becoming a real crazy woman who can hurt herself and others"
"At least your life is a lot quieter than mine, feeling as if someone is chasing me to kill me and die a terrible death in his hands"
"You never know and never imagine what kind of hell you've given me because of your selfishness"
"You...."
"It really makes my life and my future so messy that it makes me a hot dust flake"
"If you feel guilty and worry that I'll never forgive you, you're right"
"Because until the end of my life, I will never forgive all your deeds to me, sung deok mi"
"Live with your guilt for me for the rest of your life and bury with your coffin so that the gods can see what kind of person you were during your life in this world?" I said coldly to deok mi then left her still stunned looking at me
I left deok mi and went out through the door of the big house
