53 Chapter 53

Both of them surprised when they heard that a boy was calling Eun as star. Eun looks back to Chi Won as he was just in front of her. She wants to ignore that person.

"Who is it? Why you are acting like this?" asked Tae Jin surprisingly.

"Let's go from here," said Eun and stood up. When she was passing through that boy, suddenly he captured Eun's hand and said, "Stop, Stat! I know it's you. You haven't changed yet."

"Yes, it's me. Now leave me alone," said Eun angrily.

"How could I leave you after I see you for this long time?" said the boy.

"Jae Woo! You are creating a scene here. Just leave me." said Eun angrily.

"I will leave you but please just give me five minutes. No more than that. Please?" said the boy and begged her for her permission.

"Who are you?" asked Tae Jin and Chi Won together.

"Why you are bothering our star?" said Chi Won irritatingly.

"Oh! The members of SBS! I am really a big fan of you! I am Lee Jae Woo. I am her brother." said the boy smilingly and stood up.

"You are her brother?" surprised Chi Won.

"Yes, but how you know my sister? She is really very lucky!" said the boy cheerfully. Then he pulls the seats of the table and said, "Please join us."

"Us? You just finished your five minutes. I am going now." said Eun.

"No, please listen to me," said Jae Woo and hold her hand again. Eun looks at him angrily. Jae Woo got afraid of her eyes and requested her to listen to him. Please, listen to me just once. I won't hold you back if you listened to me just once." said Jae Woo.

"Okay, go ahead. But I will not stay longer. So tell whatever you want in shortly." said Eun monotonously.

"Why you didn't come back home? Why do you stop communicating with us? And where did you live for these years?" asked Jae Woo curiously and worriedly. His voice got damaged and like his voice want to break.

"So many questions at a time!" said Chi Won. Both of them want to know the answers though they could assume it. So, the three of them looked at Eun's face. Suddenly Eun got angry at Jae Woo.

"You really want to know? Why you are pretending not to know anything about it? How could you! Ah! I am wasting my time here. I shouldn't sit with you." said Eun angrily.

"I really don't know. If you won't tell me, how could I know?" said Jae Woo quietly.

"You are such a big jerk! All the cause were you and you are pretending like you don't know anything?" said Eun. "What did I do wrong? I don't found anything like that!" said Jae Woo. Tae Jin and Chi Won were looking at them. When Jae Woo talks, they look at him. And when Eun talks they looked at her. They are like enjoying a live show. But they want to know the result of the debate.

"Really! You snatched my dad from me, All his love for me. You snatched the love of my mom from me. And you are telling this, you didn't do anything wrong?" said Eun with an angry and sad voice.

"How could I did that when I loved you?" asked Jae Woo surprisingly.

"Love! My foot! You used to bully me all the time! How could you love me?" said Eun angrily.

"You won't understand. But we missed you so much. Please, come home for just one time. Dad wants to see you for just once." said Jae Woo.

"I will never go back to that home. Did you finish talking? Can I leave now?" said Eun.

"No, tell me why you don't want to see your own father's face again?" asked Jae Woo.

"How could I? Just tell me, How would I? When a father put his own daughter far away from him for his stepson? He never trusts me! He never loved me! He never supports me! He always supports you. He always loved you. So he is not my father anymore. He is your father. That is your family, not mine! My family had been dead with my mom." said Eun. Her eyes were full of tears. Get voice has been broken when she was telling those.

"What are you saying? Who told you that he doesn't love you?" asked Jae Woo surprisingly.

"I felt that. If he loved me, then why he put me away from him? Why he told that I can't live with him? I didn't want to go to the village that day. But he didn't listen to me. He took me with him and leave me to my granny. He didn't felt bad about that. He took me away because he thinks it's good for you, his son! And also, he didn't want to listen to me that day. He listened to you. You were not the victim that day. It was I who was the victim that day. You broke the picture of my mom. But he didn't notice that. So, I realized that day, my father is dead with my mom. It's not my father. It's your father. And it's the husband of that lady." said Eun and look at another way. She wants to stop her crying but she couldn't. Tears are falling from her eyes. Jae Woo noticed that so he felt bad for him. Eun controlled herself and changed her mood.

"Tell me about you. When you returned from America?" asked Eun and tried to smile.

"You know that?" surprised Jae Woo. Chi Won and Tae Jin also surprised because they know that she doesn't know anything about them.

"Yes," replied Eun shortly.

"It's been a week," said Jae Woo.

"But Star! You are wrong! Dad loved you so much. He is sick. And that's why I came here to see him. Now he wants to see you. And do you know? We all love you so much. My mom also misses you so much and so do I." said Jae Woo emotionally.

"Dad is sick? What happened to him? Is anything serious?" asked Eun being afraid.

"He had a normal heart attack. He is in hospital but the doctor said not to be afraid because he will be fine," said Jae Woo slowly.

"You should visit him," said Tae Jin. Eun forgot about them because they were quite yet. Now she looks at Tae Jin and sees that he have a serious face. Chi Won also was quiet and he was sitting like he was not there.

"That's right. He made a mistake but you can't punish him like this for the whole life!" said Chi Won.

"Yeah! And that's what I want to tell her. But she can't understand what I want to explain." said Jae Woo.

"Which hospital he is in?" asked Eun.

"He is in the central hospital in Seoul," said Jae Woo.

"Okay," said Eun, and stand up quickly. "Where are you going?" asked Tae Jin to Eun.

"Just talk yourselves. I will come home soon. So, don't worry about me." said Eun and went away.

"So, you are really his brother?" asked Chi Won.

"Yes," said Jae Woo.

"But I wish I wouldn't!" said Jae Woo and took a long breath.

"What?" surprised both of them.

"Do you know who named her 'Star'?" said Jae Woo and lean on the chair. "Who?" asked Tae Jin.

"That was me," said Jae Woo and closed his eyes.

"I don't get it. What do you want to say?" said Chi Won curiously and surprisingly. "Don't you get it? He likes her. What else?" said Tae Jin sarcastically.

"But he is her brother! How could he like her?" said Chi Won being shocked.

"I am not her real brother," said Jae Woo proudly. Tae Jin couldn't say anything he just got angry with him and look at him surprisingly.

"You know, I fall for her when I saw her for the first time. She was a kid back then. And I was a teenager." said Jae Woo and lost somewhere in his mind. "But Star said that you always used to bully her from the beginning," said Tae Jin surprisingly.

"Really? Did she mention my name? Ah! Such a lucky I am!" said Jae Woo and took a long breathe again. I wanted to hide my feeling for her. I wanted to be her brother. That's why I used to behave with her cruel and I used to always bully her. But who knew back then that it would cost that much! If I knew that I am going to lose her, then I never would do that to her. Yes, that day it was my fault. I broke the picture if her mother. But she got angry with me and we had a fight like siblings. But I got hurt by her and our dad saw that. He didn't want to listen to who was guilty. Because I was afraid of my dad and my mom said to him that she hurt me badly. My mom was so angry at Star. That's why she forced him to take her away from me. And I am regretting this now. If I could tell that I was guilty just once that day, her life would not become so hard. She could live a normal life." said Jae Woo slowly and a regretful voice.

"Okay, tell me about you how you meet with her? And how you know her that well? I am the only one here who is talking." said Jae Woo and drink some juice from the table. Chi Won wants to talk with him but Tae Jin's phone starts to ringing and he took the phone from his pocket. It was Ha Joon who called him. So, he has to take the call.

"Hey! Where are you? Don't you need to come home? It's already 3.00 pm! Did you eaten something or that not necessary to you also?" said Ha Joon shouting.

"I am just way to home," said Tae Jin calmly.

"Okay, come quickly. We have a schedule at 5.00 pm. Now I have to call Chi Won because he is not at home also." said Ha Joon.

"Wait! Chi Won is with me," said Tae Jin. "Really? But how you are together? Anyway, tell him to come home quickly." said Ha Joon and cut the call.

"We have to go home. Maybe we have another schedule today," said Tae Jin to Chi Won silently.

"Again! Ah! I want to rest but...." said Chi Won and lean on the chair.

"Sorry! We will tell you another day. We have to go today. Nice to meet you." said Tae Jin and pull Chi Won to take him with himself.

"It's okay. It's honorable to me that we met. Nice to meet you too." said Jae Woo and stand up.

"Bye," said Chi Won and Tae Jin together.

"Bye. Take good care of Star," said Jae Woo and sit again.

[On the other side in the hospital]

"Dad! It's your Eun! Look at me!" said Eun to his father who was lying on the bed of the hospital. He has a small pipe of oxygen under his nose. And he was in deep sleep.

"Then you are his daughter?" said a nurse and come to her.

"Yes, why?" asked Eun.

"Every day he asked for you if you came to visit him. He is not in good condition. He is in pain. That's why he took much time to recovered. Thanks, good that you are here! Now he will be okay. At least he could see you for once." said the nurse again and write something in her notebook.

"Since when he is here?" asked Eun sadly.

"It's been two weeks. I never saw that kind of patient anywhere! He has a block on his heart and so we have to do a big surgery. He is not fully recovered yet but he will be soon. He is taking time because he is worried about something." said the nurse and went from there. "Dad?" shouted Eun loudly. She got tears in her eyes.

"I am such a bad daughter. You got in this situation for me!" said Eun and cried out. She sits down on the floor and took her head on the bed.

"So am I!" said her dad slowly and put his hand on Eun's head.
