Chapter 18 - "Someone...who cares!"

~Meeting Luna properly after a long wait of 12 years, Noah's happiness was beyond horizon! Gleaming in happiness he took out his phone and dialed someone...

(Phone ringing)

"Hello?"- a voice answered.

"Hey Baek! What's up buddy?" Noah replied while his voice was blooming in happiness.

"Ahh you haven't died yet? Why do you always call me at the wrong time you punk? My company just lost a big contract yesterday and I am in depression now!"- Baek sounded very agitated.

"Gwenchana Gwenchana! [It's okay it's okay, in Korean]

Darkness is common in our lives, only after darkness we can expect a bright sunlight!" Noah tried to uplift his mood!

"Stop it before I kill you punk!" Baek sounded very frustrated.

"Okay I won't pester you anymore, listen Baek, today I am very happy! Guess what? I just met Luna today!" He answered gladly.

"Ahh that fashion designer Luna? But you told she threw coffee on you when you asked for breakup! Why did you meet her seriously!" Baek replied.

"Ehh it's not that Luna! Gosh you are so fucking dumb Baek!"

"Dumb? I told you I just lost a big deal and my brain is totally fucked up now!"

Both of them were bickering like teenagers.

"I met the original Luna! I mean my first love! Kim Luna! Our Ice Princess.." Noah replied quite boldly.

Baek was silent for sometime. "Woah! Where did you find her?"- he asked in a surprised tone.

"Yeah! Even I still can't believe I actually met her after such a long wait! I saw her yesterday in a cafe, though she was sitting with a creepy rude jerk! Oh my! You won't believe but I have never felt such a creepy vibe from anyone!" Noah was constantly blabbering.

"Ohhh! Then maybe he is her boyfriend now!" Baek answered.

"Hey why do you always presume the negative, you pessimistic punk? Luna confirmed that he is just someone she knows! There is nothing going between them!" Noah sounded very desperate.

"Then do you think you have a chance this time?" Baek asked in a deep voice.

Noah was quiet for sometime. With a deep sigh he replied, "I don't think so! It seems no matter what I try, but she won't look at me with love.... She never considered me more than a friend, it was all my fault to fall for her despite knowing her despise for love! I think some love stories always remain unfinished...."

"Ahh just now you scolded me for being pessimistic - now you are sounding like a helpless sad kdrama actor! Don't loose hope so easily! Destiny has always planned everything from before! If destiny let you two find each other again after 12 years, there must be some grave reason for it! Who knows, maybe you two end up with each other forever?" Baek tried to console his broken heart.

Noah chuckled a bit. "Ahh Baek, I am really glad to have such a great friend like you! You always had my back! Thanks man!" Noah sounded very pleased.

"No need of thanking me. I know, Luna deserves someone like you who can break her cold barrier!" Baek replied in a dense voice.

"Ohh man! Baek you are really perfect for me in every aspect! Do you know? If you had been a girl, we should have get married with two kids by now!" Noah started blabbering again.

"Ugghh thinking of it gives me goosebump! No thanks! I don't want to deal with a crazy punk like you! I am hanging up! Bye! Don't call me again!" Baek disconnected the call.

"Ha ha! He is really the only one I can rely on this world now!" Noah murmured softly.

(Phone ringing)

Noah looked at the screen and it was from his office.

"Yes hello!" - he answered.

"Good afternoon Sir!

Sir, the chief editor we selected from the interview is scheduled to join tomorrow. Is it okay? I wanted to confirm it before sending her the confirmation notice!"- the voice answered.

"Yes of course! We are running short on editors! Send her the confirmation notice now!", Noah replied & disconnected the call.

"Um Mr. Inn! Can you stop by my house first? I need to talk to dad for a moment!"- he asked his driver in a deep voice.

"Yes sure Sir!"- he replied.

****

Alex was sitting in his cabinet with a grumpy mood. He was feeling terribly agitated with the fact that Noah & Luna met each other in cafe. In words, it can be termed as "jealousy".

"Damn! Even I couldn't have a perfect date with her till now! First day she panicked and second day that mannerless jerk disturbed me! I just feel to chop his body to several pieces and feed it to my Tarzan" (his German Shepherd dog).. he murmured quite fiercely.

(Phone ringing)

Alex looked at his phone and frowned his eyebrows.

"Hello Mr. Kim!"- he answered.

"Ahh yes hello Alex! How are you?"- a voice replied.

"Well can you directly come to the point first? I have an important meeting to attend!" Alex replied very coldly.

"Ohh! Sure! Well actually Luna called me somedays back and told that she doesn't want this marriage to happen! Actually I didn't expect her to reject you! I believe I can't find a son-in-law better than you!"- he sounded very polite.

"Yeah Miss Kim firmly rejected me after I went to her mansion! I was very concerned! But if that's what she wants then I can---"

"Ahh no no! Actually she has been very immature always. She doesn't have the sense to decide what's good and what's bad for her! Please don't take her decision so seriously! I am coming back to Seoul very soon! I am coming back especially earlier this time to convince Luna for the marriage. Trust me, she can't disobey her father!"- he interrupted Alex in a deep voice.

"As you wish!" Alex replied in a dense voice.

"And um, Alex, you didn't forget about our 2 billion worth business deal right? Your father had promised me that he would help me to expand my overseas business after the marriage! He he! So I just wanted to remind you about that if in case you forget! And don't worry about Luna! I will talk to her!"- he sounded a bit restless.

"Hmm. I will be off for my business meeting. Have a good day Mr. Kim!"

"Yeah! You too Alex!"

Alex disconnected the call with a smirk in his face.

"You are such a greedy bastard Mr. Kim! You are especially coming back earlier this time just to convince your daughter for the marriage, not because you want to see her! You don't even care about her a single percent! Such an awful father!"- he thought.

"The person from whom I need to protect Luna the most is sadly her own father!" - Alex silently mumbled while looking outside the window.
