"i promise to be faithful, to be yours and only yours, to only love you until i die" - mingyu
it hurts, wonwoo's heart aches remembering his husband's vow. words really are just words.
everything was perfect, they love each other. yes they had their fair share of fights, but they never failed to kiss and make up.
they were perfect for each other, every thing to them were perfect, they were perfect as a couple. everyone around told them that.
so wonwoo really wonder what went wrong. where did the man who vowed to only love him go. where did the man whom he married five years ago went, the man whom he has been loving for almost a decade, where ???!!!!
he felt tears drop from his already swollen eyes. he peaks at the clock on his room to see what is the time, then he sighed exasperated. its already 3 in the morning, was he really crying for a long time and yet why does his heart still aches.
flashback
wonwoo entered the cafe, it was his lunch break and he went there since its the nearest food place near his office. he went there alone, since his so called best friend and officemate "jun" is supposedly and can't come with him.
after ordering wonwoo chose to sit at the corner side of the cafe where no people can see him when they enter.
he was busy scanning pictures of him and his husband he smiled, he is really lucky he married mingyu, its already 5 years since their marriage and he's thinking of doing something special for his husband.
he was deep in thought when he heard a cute squeal, he looked for the source of the high pitched voice and saw a little girl looking at the cakes of the cafe, her mothered told her not too be loud and said sorry to the nearby customers who are watching the girl with smiles. "cute" he thought , he wondered if he and mingyu had a child it would have been too perfect their family would be complete.
the girl suddenly ran towards a man while telling him what she wants. "appa, i want the strawberry cake" the man kissed and carried his daughter and went to the counter where his wife is. wonwoo waited to see the mans face only to be shocked upon seeing who it was.
yes, it was no other than his husband, KIM MINGYU. wonwoo's mind was filled with questions, why is he here?, how? i thought he's abroad, what's happening? he told me he'll be there for a month.
wonwoo's heart broke, he felt so betrayed.
he felt something broke inside of him again when he saw mingyu kiss the woman, they look so happy together.
wonwoo don't know what to say, but his body already started to move like it has a mind on it's own, he's feet already brought him towards the "family's" table.
"hello mr. kim, nice to see you, i heard you where in japan. when did you arrive back?" - wonwoo cant believe himself , what was he doing, why was he there, he just want to leave.
he saw mingyu's reaction, he saw shocked in his husbands face, he saw how clearly flustered he is.
"hello sir, do you know my appa?" the girl said, wonwoo looked at the girl, he scanned the child properly, calculating how old she is
"yes, your dad is a friend of mine, im just happy to run into him" -wonwoo faked a smile, his heart broke again the child was clearly his, mingyu's those eyes and lips
"wonwoo" mingyu said
wonwoo pretended to look at the time, but how sad the situation is, he only made himself look like a fool since he's not wearing his watch.
"oh i need to go, my break is about to end. bye nice meeting you" wonwoo looked at the woman who only smiled and to the child. he never looked at mingyu because he might break there and cry.
he left the cafe, he did not go to work,he wandered until his feet brought him to their old shared house
end
remembering what had happened, wonwoo sobbed, he cried so loud, he wanted to ease the pain but doesn't know how.
how can he be such a fool, he cant believe his husband was lying to him. since when was he cheating, ah yeah maybe four years ago, wonwoo bitterly laughed the kid was about four years old and he only found out now.
he cant believe it. he sobbed and wailed.
wonwoo kept on crying,
wonwoo shouted, he shouted till his voice went hoarse, attempting that it might ease his pain.
his phone broken on the floor, he threw things and destroyed everything in his room, to appease his anger.
he never minded his friends knocking, ignoring their calls.
he fell asleep crying that morning.
wonwoo woke up late the next day. he doesn't feel well, upon waking he was reminded of what happened.
wonwoo walked out of his room, not bothering bout his appearance. he went to the kitchen to look for water, his throat aches but his heart is in more pain. the water seems to not ease his thirst, he saw a bottle of wine and drank it bottoms up.
