"You called me?" Sora asked surprised. Then, she took out her phone from her pocket and saw a list of missed calls. Her eyes fell on the muted option at the top-right corner. "My phone was on silent…"
"How is aunty?" Sora asked being worried.
"Thank God! She is fine…" Seohyun looked at Mrs. Lee and grabbed her bag. "Alright. I will leave now… I have to go for work. When Yi Kyung comes say that I left, okay? Take care of Aunty." Seohyun bid her goodbye and proceeded to leave when Sora tugged her top.
"Where is Junsu Oppa?" She was still regretting her decision of hitting him hard on his face. She wanted to see him and apologize.
"He went to get the medicines."
Sora felt her nervousness sliding away when she heard that. She gave a nod and said her sister bye.
She walked closer towards Mrs. Lee and touched her face. "Thank You, Aunty! Thank You for being healthy."
She pulled the chair from under the bed and sat down on it. Holding Mrs. Lee's hand, she rested her head beside her. "I really am sorry. I made a very big mistake…" Few minutes later, she drifted to sleep.
Then, she heard a sound of the door open and she immediately opened her eyes. "Who… Who is there?" She asked while adjusting her eyes to the strong light falling on her.
"Relax. It is me, Yi Kyung…"
Sora calmed down as she got to know that it was Yi Kyung. "Did you get the medicines?"
"Hyung gave it to the nurse… The nurse will come in some time with food and medicine."
"Why do you have eggs with you?" Sora asked as she saw Yi Kyung holding two brown eggs in his hand.
"Ahh, This… Hyung got injured by a lamp-post… so, I will go and give him this."
"Injured?"
"Yes, Although, it looks like someone slapped him.. he said that he got hurt by the lamp-post so, I just agreed to it." Yi Kyung shrugged his shoulders and opened the door to leave when Sora stopped him.
"Give them to me. I will go…" Thinking this as a chance of apologizing, she said that she would do it. She found this the only way of getting closer to him to apologize.
Nonchanlantly, Yi Kyung gave the eggs to her and she asked where he was. He said that he was in the empty room aside of this. Giving a nod, she walked out and instantly her nervousness grew. She took a deep sigh "Okay, let's do this!" She encouraged herself and opened the door.
Hearing the footsteps, Junsu thought that it was Yi Kyung, and without looking up, he asked "How is mother doing?" His voice was a little cold that it made Han Sora shiver.
She felt her legs going weak but she kept her strength and stood there. With little hesitation, she said "She is good… fine now!"
As Lee Junsu heard a familiar voice, he immediately recognized that it was Han Sora's voice. With arrogance visible in his voice, he asked "Why are you here?"
"I… I.." She stammered and stopped. Walking closer to him, she sat beside him and started rubbing the egg on his cheek when he hissed and moved his face away. "What are you doing?" He asked furiously.
"Your cheek is swollen so, it is better you rub this. It will heal quickly…" Han Sora explained and again rubbed his cheek when he held her wrist… She looked at him frightened and letting out a sigh, he threw her hand away. "You don't need to do it… Just keep it over there. I will do it."
Nevertheless, Han Sora didn't stop. "I'm responsible for this so, I will do." She reasoned out and again started rubbing the egg on his cheek.
Ultimately, Lee Junsu gave up and allowed her to do it. He hissed as he felt the egg touching the area where it pained the most. "I'm sorry." He looked towards her when he heard her apologizing.
"I didn't find anything else to do other than slapping you but I don't know why I slapped you so hard… I'M SORRY FOR THIS AND… I'M SORRY BECAUSE I CAN'T ACCEPT YOUR FEELINGS." There it was... She finally said it all. She didn't wanted to play with his feelings anymore.
Junsu was okay with hearing her sorry. He was now, feeling okay so, he wanted her to stop apologizing… But when he heard her sorry for another reason, he said to himself 'I didn't know we would break up this soon!' He felt bad knowing that this would be the last time he would be thinking that she would be accepting his feelings!
Signaling her to stop by showing his hand, he asked "Is there a suitable reason for it?"
Han Sora kept the eggs aside and answered "No suitable reason. It's just that I can't keep on toying with your feelings. I feel bad on doing so."
Getting to know that there was no suitable reason, Lee Junsu felt a little hope growing in his heart. It was just like how he had thought… That she would have feelings for him slowly…
With a smile on his face, he instantly said "It doesn't matters if you love me… I'm okay with a one-sided love relationship." Like a young teen in love, he held her hand and kissed on it. "Trust me. I'm really happy with that… You don't have to worry about that…I will be okay."
"But, I won't be okay." Sora retracted her hand from his grip and stood up. "I'm sorry. But let's finish what had started on accident."
The little hope which had risen in his heart instantly vanished as he heard her harsh words. They just broke his heart like a glass breaking while falling on the floor.
Being in a panic stricken mode, he didn't know what to say or do… So, he just started requesting her "Look, Sora. Let's think about it once more… I won't touch you without your permission or I won't do anything unless you say me something. So, at least, let's not break up. Please?"
But Sora had made herself prepared for all this. No matter how much he requested her, her answer was a no. And finally, she removed her ring, held his hand and kept it in his palm. "I'm sorry. But this ring fits someone else more better than me. Give it to the woman who loves you back like how you love me, okay?" She smiled lightly and walked out of the room.
"That was hard. But all done… Now the weight is all gone from my heart." She sighed and let out a cheerful laugh.
Lee Junsu ran after her only to see her laughing outside the corridor. He also smiled and ruffled his hair "I think it really was one-sided."
He looked at the ring in his palm and said "Thanks for at least spending a few days with me, Mrs. Lee. No matter what, you will still be my woman… If not in this lifetime, then, in the next lifetime."
