Chapter 35

Yoonjin hauled her inside the house angrily.

As they entered the house, Yoonjin stood still, angrily running his finger through his hair and let out a heavy sigh, before turning to look at her.

'Why was he here?'. Yoonjin asked, staring angrily at her.

Chaeyoung raised a brow at his question, how was she supposed to know, she thought without saying a word, infuriating the already angry man even more.

'Chaeyoung answer me!'. He yelled

'How the hell am I supposed to know?'. She yelled back, pulling her hand away from his.

She looked at him, her chest rising continuously in anger.

'F*ck'. He screamed, angry by her terse reply.

'By the way, why the hell are you here?'. She glared at him angrily.

'We haven't spoken since the freaking dinner, and you come here after 2 f*cking weeks, now you're asking me why is Elvis was here, shouldn't that be the question I should be asking you?'.

She was angry.

She knows their relationship is nothing special, but him acting like that was making it look otherwise, she needed him to stop.

She took a deep breath and looked away from him.

'You should leave, I quite tired'. She said, walking past him, headed towards the stairs.

She stopped walking, when she realized he was not moving.

'Yoonjin you should leave, I said I'm tired'. She repeated one more time.

Yoonjin gave her one more glance, before walking out of the house.

She watched as he left and sighed. She sat on the stair, looking at the closed door, massaging her red wrist as she bit her lips in anger.

'He left'. She breathed and nodded her head.

What had she expected?, that he'll pull her into a tight hug, that he'd say he came to see her?' She thought laughing at her foolishness. It was not like had anything special going on between them, apart from being engaged, a joke.

She heard her phone ringing and opened her bag, taking her phone.

She looked at the caller ID before picking up.

'Hi mom'. She said, placing the phone on her ear.

'My baby girl, why didn't you pick up, you made me worried'. Mrs Seo said from the other line concerned about Chaeyoung.

Chaeyoung knew her phone had rang but she didn't pick up the call due to what happened few seconds ago, and she did not know who was calling.

'I'm sorry mom, I was quite busy, are you home?'. She asked as she stood up, climbing the stairs.

Mrs Seo chuckled.

'Of course not hun, Mrs Park and I traveled out, to get the necessary things for the wedding, as well prepare the house for your honeymoon'.

'Wedding?'. She asked, confused what she was talking about.

'The date for the wedding has been set, your fiancé and his cousin went to see the old man today'. Mrs Seo noticed the silence from the other line.

'Yoonjin haven't told you?'.

'No..' Her short response.

'Maybe, he's planning on telling you tomorrow, anyways act surprised when he does, I can't believe I just ruined the surprise'.

So, that was the reason he actually came by, why did she think he was their just to see her, why had she hoped that was why he came, their relationship was nothing more than just a joke.

'Chae, you should relax okay, I don't want you to loose weight before your wedding'. She heard a different voice say from the background.

Mrs Seo chuckled.

'That's Mrs Park, she just finished instructing those, who will prepare everything for your honeymoon'.

Chaeyoung felt a pang of pain in her chest.

'Why were they making everything seem real, why was she wishing it was real?'. She thought.

'Thank you mom, and Mrs Park I love you'. She said.

'I told you to refer to me as mom, I mean we're already families, right Jihyo?'.

Chaeyoung laughed hearing Mrs Park's sulking voice.

'She's right Chae, she's now your mom'. He mom said and chuckled.

'You seem tired hun, I'll leave you to rest'.

'Hmm, by moms'.

The call ended.

Chaeyoung threw her phone and sank into the bed, looking at the plain white ceiling, staring blankly at it for a while.

She stood up from the bed and took off her clothes.

If she was going to forget all that had happened that evening, she had to take a hot shower, which could help in relaxing and calming her.

She got out of the shower, wearing a white bathrobe.

She held a towel which she used to dry her wet hair.

She sat on the dressing mirror and took the hair dryer and blew her hair dry. She did her skin care routine and applied lotion to her body before standing up.

She heard the sound of the doorbell. Confused she quickly wore her night dress and went downstairs to checked the person on the door.

She saw Yoonjin standing outside , holding a small plastic bag.

Why was he here again, she thought subconsciously and slightly opened the door.

'What is it this time?'. She didn't know why she said that, but all she wanted him to do was apologise, for leaving when he had left without saying a word, just because she asked him to.

'Just let me in'. He said with a sudden smile.

Chaeyoung stared at him for a while before adjusting, letting him in.

She stood in front of the closed door staring at him with her hands crossed.

'What?'. She rolled her eyes, and looked away from him.

Yoonjin chuckled and held her hand.

'What are you doing now?'. She asked, trying to pull her hand from his.

'Just stay still'. He said.

He staring at her red wrist and sighed.

'Which on of us did this?'. He asked, raising his head to look at her.

She was surprised that he noticed, that meant the bag contains medicine for her wrist.

She smiled inwardly, she was going to make him feel guilty.

'It was you, your grip on my wrist was too tight'. She answered.

Yoonjin took her to the couch, they sat down and he applied some ointment on her skin.

'I'm sorry'. He whispered.

Chaeyoung stared at him, a small smile appeared on her lips, watching him carefully applying the ointment to her wrist.

She noticed his knuckles looking red.

'What happened your hand?'.

Yoonjin looked at his hands with a smirk, and shook his head.

'I must have hit on some unimportant stuff, but it's fine'. He said giving her a reassuring smile.

'Babe what's wrong?'. Nari asked worriedly as Elvis entered the house angrily.

He ignored her and went upstairs to his room.

Nari followed him and taking off his suit jacket.

It was strange seeing Elvis like that, and it really bothers Nari.

She went to him, holding his hand, turning him to face her.

'Babe, what's wrong?'. She asked.

He eyes widened in shock seeing his lips injured. She placed her hand on his face to get a better glance at it.

'What happened?'. She asked caressing the spot, looking at his eyes for answers.

'It's nothing, I got hit by a ball'. He said, taking her hand off his face.

Nari stared at him in doubt.

'A ball'. She repeated.

'Yes, Nari a ball, by a wayward kid'. He said.

'Alright, I'll get you some ice, that kid must be stupid'. She said looking at the spot one more time before going downstairs to get ice.

Elvis looked at his face in the mirror.

His jaw clenched in anger. Yoonjin dared laid his filthy hand on him.

Yoonjin had ran after his car, with his, just to give him a heavy punch on his cheek, leaving him with a statement.

'The next time you'll hold her with that filthy hand of yours, I'll make sure you never get to use it, nor see it'.

Thinking of Chaeyoung and Yoonjin’s ship name before their wedding
