17 I'm sorry

After sometime both nari and Yon left for nari's house as both of them were really wet. "Yah what if your family members get the wrong idea." Yon said it for the hundredth time. "Nobody is at my home. Or maybe my granny is there." "Whaaaaat? Well it is better than being alone with you-" Nari game him a 'seriously dude' look. "I am not saying that I don't trust you and all but because, you know the society? They might think something is going on between us." Nari just sighed and kept walking and when she finally turned around to speak to him. He was just gone. She stood there for a while thinking that Yon might have gone distracted and maybe was coming back but he didn't so she just kept on walking till she reached at her house. As soon as she entered the house granny and byung chul came running towards her and were suprised to see a wet and cold nari standing at the door. "Nari-yah! Where have you been? Do you know how worried we have been? Don't you care even a little about us? How can you be so selfish? You jumped into the river didn't you?" Granny yelled and slapped nari's back in helplessness. Nari stayed awakwardly silent so byung chul quickly thought of something. "Granny nari's fine so calm down. Okay?" "Calm down?! How can I calm when my granddaughter was about to take her life? Both mother and daughter are making me suffer. That one didn't know when to stop and this one doesn't know when to not stop." "But granny we don't really know that whether nari jumped into the river or not." "Are you blind? Can't you see her wet clothes? What more proof do you need now?" Nari's granny yelled in frustration. "Yes. I did jump into the water. Does it clear your doubts now." Nari said coldly to which nari's granny slapped her. "What did you say right now? Don't you feel ashamed? Are you proud that you tried to take your own life? Don't you feel any guilt." "Granny let's not do this. hmmm? Nari is right infront of us isn't she? So how about we all just calm down." Byung chul again interrupted. "I don't care anymore. Do whatever you want I am leaving." Nari's granny stormed out of the house. Byung chul wanted to stop her but he knew that what granny needed right now wasn't comforting words but some alone time. "Nari-yah. Quickly get changed. I will get you something to eat." Nari just nodded and went inside her room, she quickly got changed to find byung chul with some ramyoen. Nari quietly sat down and started eating. "I forgot that I don't know how to cook so I could only prepare ramyoen. I hope you don't mind." Nari shook her head slightly. They ate their ramyoen quietly and after the dishes were done nari was about to go to her room when byung chul forced her to the living room to watch a horror movie. Nari quietly sat down and started watching it but it wasn't that scary, at least for her. Byung chul screamed at every scene when he saw the ghost or something. He kept saying that he was sorry for not being able to watch a horror movie. "Nari-yah. I'm sorry. I am really really sorry." Nari was now finding it annoying but she was too lazy to show any emotions. "Why do you keep saying sorry? It's not a big deal for not being able to watch a horror movie. It is normal." "No. I am not saying sorry for that." "Then?" "I'm sorry that I didn't believe you. I'm sorry for not being able to protect your feelings. I'm sorry for acting like a jerk and I am really sorry because I am the main reason for granny's tears and your panic attack." Byung chul looked down on his legs not being able to meet eyes with nari, nari silently laughed at her friend's confession. The horror movie had ended and now there was some romantic movie playing. "I am going to sleep" Nari got hold of a pillow and kept it on byung chul's lap and then laid her head on it. "What are you doing?" Byung chul asked taken aback at nari's behavior. "I am sleeping so don't disturb me." With that Nari fell asleep while byung chul watched and absorbed her gorgeous facial features. "You're beautiful." This words left byung chul's lips involuntarily. "I know." Nari said while chuckling a little. "I'm sorry." Byung chul again apologized and nari just chuckled.
