19 Determination

"I know that you will hate me when the truth comes out, but I am ready to take the hatred for you people. You people need to sort out things together and I had no idea how to do that except this, I am sorry" Neul Woo Joon muttered to himself looking the screen where he saw Haneul walking back to their home holding her tears followed by Lee Soong

"I promise that I will be with you in this journey Haneul, I won't let Min Joon trouble you in any way. I will make sure you have the upper hand in things around" Neul Woo Joon promised to himself

"What are you doing Min? Why are you playing this game with me? Aren't you tired of gifting me pain? Why do you keep hurting me?" Haneul banged her fists on the wall yelling

Tears kept rolling down from Haneul's eyes smearing her eye liner all over, her face turned red and cheeks were flushed out

"How did he get access to all the rights? How could he have done this? How can he change all the terms? How can he slap these many rules on my face? Who is he to lay this rule of personal defamation against me even though I didn't even started working? How did Kane Hee Jee signed this without thinking? How can this happen?" Haneul yelled in the bathroom knowing that it is sound proof

"You have always been wrong to me Min, you have tortured me and I took that, you have bruised my heart and I walked away without complaining. I have been living my own life away from you, yet you came into my life and took it by a storm. How could you be so heartless? I am not going to let you win this time. I am going to prove you that everything doesn't go your way. I am going to fight this, I am going to show you that you can't effect me anymore. You have invited this situation all yourself Mr. Min Woo Joon, now get ready to face the circumstances too" Haneul gritted her teeth wiping away her tears

Haneul quickly washed her face with the tap water and cleansed the eye liner spread all over her face, she quickly pulled out a napkin from the rack present opposite to her and patted her face dry

"I am not letting you to get satisfied watching my tears, you need to know that the equation has changed and you need to know that you are going to face strong opponent" Haneul muttered combing her hair with her fingers

She pulled back her skirt and adjusted her dress looking at her frame in the mirror.

"Lee, can you lend me your make up kit?" Haneul requested opening the bathroom door

"What? Why?" Lee Soong questioned surprised

"Why will anyone ask for makeup Lee? To use that, so stop questioning everything and give me your bag" even though Haneul tried keeping her voice normal the frustration inside her made that sound like a warning

Lee Soong immediately pulled her bag from her shoulder an d gave that to Haneul who closed the bathroom door as soon as she took the bag in her hands

"Why is she behaving so strange? What could have happened? Is anything wrong with here? Is there something about this place or this man which she knows but I don't? What could have happened?" Lee Soong kept wondering strolling in the restroom area

"Let me get ready, you only love looking at beautiful things right Min? I will show you my real beauty" Haneul thought smearing blood red lipstick on her tender lips. She patted the compact powder on her face and dabbed blush on her cheeks with a loose brush

Winging her eyes with a liner, she added touch up with the loose powder available in Lee Soong's bag. She looked at her reflection in the mirror which screamed anger and frustration

"Don't fall weak, this is your battle and the only option for you is to win this" she repeated to herself before stepping out

"Han, are you by any chance pregnant?" Lee questioned as soon as Haneul stepped out of the bathroom getting ready

"What?" Haneul questioned getting jolted hearing her friends question

"I know you don't have any boyfriend, but you have been behaving so weird from the morning. I saw my ex roommate behaving like this while she was pregnant, her mood kept changing for every 5 seconds just like you. So I thought you could be…." Lee Soong explained the reason when she saw Haneul's fuming eyes stariung at her

"You are totally nuts Lee, how can you imagine anything which comes to your mind? Don't you have anything called logical thinking?" Haneul questioned

"See you are yelling at me again. Morning you were totally against this job, then you crafted a plan made our boss Kang dance on your tunes, sign the contract in your way, later you were against makeup and getting dressed but now you have done all that yourself. A few minutes earlier you said me that we are not going to work here anymore, you were waiting for the cab to exit the place, then you received a call and walked away a little. I had no idea what took place on the call but you looked like a corpse while you dropped the mobile. When I slapped back life into you, a tremor passed through your hands and then you ran back into the mansion where everyone started behaving weird. Haneul Koo Young, for the love of God explain me what is happening if you want me to stay alive for a few more minutes. I just can't understand what is happening. Is anything wrong?" Lee Soong huffed after questioning Haneul everything in one go

"Things were never this wrong Lee, but trust me we can make this right. Everything happened until now is just a part of someone's game, now prepare yourself to be on the winning side" Haneul smiled wide at her roommate
