Chapter 18: Seeing You Again

Normal POV

"Geez, love. You're seducing me so much already. I'm going crazy," Yeonjun covered his face with both of his hands. You can see that his ears are all red.

"Hahaha. I'm just kidding," You chuckled as you slapped his back hard.

"As I've said, being with you here is enough for me. I'm already happy," you got both of his hands that are covering his face and hold them tight.

You looked straight into his eyes and told him, "Saranghae, Yeonjun-ah. Naneun hangsang neoleul salang halgeoya (I will always love you). We may be miles apart but we will always remain close in heart. I will always miss you. But I will try my best not to always be sad. I will always pray for your safety and happiness."

"You are my happiness, love," he responded. His voice cracked and he looked away. You can see that tears started falling down to his cheeks.

Seeing him crying like that, you can't help but to shed tears too. You pulled him into a warm hug.

"I'm sorry, love. I shouldn't be crying like this. I'm embarrassed that I'm showing you my weak side. But I just can't help it. I finally found you. I finally found someone that I want to cherish my whole life, someone who loves and accept me for who I am. When I'm with you I can be my true self. I don't need to put up masks. I don't need to control my emotions and put on a façade. I thought I had lost myself, but then I met you and you found me," he buried his face on your shoulders as he continued crying.

"You found me too, Yeonjun-ah. I am the same. I thought I was losing myself. People only see me as the celebrity Y/N, all my movements are being watched by the public. I need to always be the perfect Y/N to please everybody. Sometimes, I don't recognize who is the real me. But then, I went on this trip and found someone who embraces Y/N, the normal person. Even if it's just for a short time, our time together is the most precious time that I will always be grateful for. I will see you soon, my love," you put my hands to his cheeks and pressed your lips on his forehead.

That night you two talked a lot until the sun rises. It felt that time will be wasted if you put yourselves into slumber. Your flight back to the Philippines is 7:00 AM in the morning. You called your manager and requested her to pack your stuff in your hotel room because you will go straight to the airport.

You and Yeonjun are driving on the way to the airport.

"I'm sorry, love. I can't really send you off to the gates. I can just drop you to the airport entrance. You know how it is," Yeonjun look at you through the rearview mirror.

"No worries, love. I understand. Thank you for sending me off," you smiled at him.

Nearing the airport, Yeonjun put up his hoodie, his facemask and his sunglasses. You also did the same. You have reached the airport entrance.

"I guess I'll be seeing you soon," you are about to open the car door, when Yeonjun pulled you into a kiss.

You kissed him back. It was a warm and brief kiss.

"I'll be seeing you soon, my love," he flashed you a warm smile.

You really don't want to move an inch and stay there with him, but you know that you can't do that, since paparazzi might be tailing Yeonjun. With a heavy heart, you open the car door and walked fast to the entrance.

You stopped by the entrance and looked back. You saw how the car that Yeonjun was driving went away.

"I'll be seeing you soon, my love."

-Time Skip-

Three weeks later

"Y/N, Saan ka na? Malalate na tayo sa shooting ng commercial mo. (Y/N, where are you? We'll be late for the shooting of your commercial)," Ate Karen, your manager shouted in your doorway.

"Sorry, Ate Karen. May nakain yata akong hindi Maganda kagabi (Sorry, Big Sister Karen. It seemed that I have eaten something bad last night). I kept vomiting," you kept throwing up on your bathroom sink.

"Are you sure na sa nakain yan ha, hindi sa ibang bagay? (Are you sure that's because of what you have eaten not because of other things?)," your manager sounded doubtful. "Kailan yung last period mo? (When was your last period?)," she asked seriously.

You felt your heart pounded so loudly on your chest.

"I'm one week late on my period," you whispered in low shaking voice.

"Ano?! (What?!) Geez! Y/N!!!!!!" Ate Karen shrieked.

"Don't shout so loud, Ate Karen. Sumasakit ang ulo ko (My head is hurting)," you walked out the bathroom while holding your head and sat down the edge of your bed.

"Okay! Relax! Relax! Breathe! After the shoot, we'll have you take pregnancy test. So now, let's go and we'll be late for the shoot," Ate Karen pulled you up and supported you in walking out the bedroom.

As always, you worked professionally until the commercial shoot ended. It was a popular perfume product. Right after the shoot, your manager drove you back to your house. Ate Karen had given you 5 boxes of pregnancy test.

"Use them all," she instructed.

You went inside the bathroom and followed what she instructed. After some time of waiting, you emerged out from the bathroom with a fearful look.

"What happened?!" Ate Karen is getting hysterical.

"Th-they're all positive," your voice is shaking. "Buntis ako. (I'm Pregnant)."
