Chapter 8 - Chapter 7; Lie

"Hmm, that should look good." you admire your outfit in the mirror, trying to look as good as you could.

"Noo…the black one looked better…or did the yellow one look better? Maybe i should just wear the black one…hmm, it makes me look slimer anyway." you quickly pull the pastel blue outfit over your head and quickly grab the black and white outfit laying on top of the bed.

You put it over your head, and pull it downwards as it perfectly fitted your body. "Yes!, perfect"

"Now, what should i do with my hair?" "Maybe, i should just leave it like this…yeah that'll be good" you add, picking up a comb from the dresser. You brush, your hair gently, making sure to not hurt yourself but still undo the knots in it.

After a few minutes, you were done with everything, so you grabbed a pair of black high heels and put in on.

"Wait…why am i even trying to look so good for him? It isn't like, i like him or something right? jeez there's no way i like him" you laugh it out, checking yourself out in the mirror for the last time."Jesus, let's just go" you command yourself, turning the door knob around and pulling it, inorder for the door to open.

You close the door behind you and walk towards the path, which led to his room.

You take a deep breath and knock on the wooden door which had diffferent but elegant designs painted onto it with gold. You impatiently, knock on the door once again, expecting to hear a response, instead you were met with dead silence.

EUNWOO'S P.O.V

The sudden knocks on the door of my bedroom, wake me up from my precious sleep as i groan in annoyance but i decide to ignore the knocks and get back to sleep.

I hear the knocks once again. For the love of myself, the heck. "Who is it!?" i yell as the naked woman beside me stirs in her sleep. "It's Hyejin!" i hear from the otherwise of the door as my eyes widen in shock "Fuck, how could i forget?" i say almost in a whisper. "She can't see me like this. Oh god, what do i do? what do i do?"

"Darn it!" i let out in agony as i hear another knock on the wooden door. I rush towards my walk-in closet and quickly grab the sweatshirt and pants which were closest to me.

I slip, the purple sweatshirt, i just took, over my upper body and hurry to get the loose baby blue jeans over my lower body. I quickly button up the jeans and pull the chain up, still being careful to not myself. "Come in!" i yell, getting back under the blanket and covering the sleeping figure right beside me.

The door knob turns around as she pushes the door open from the otherside. "Uh, hey. You wanted to see me?" she lets out in a soft voice.

She licks her lips, after finishing the sentence and softly bites onto her lower lip. "Uh, yeah. Actually yesterday, in the garden…i found a necklace, laying on the grass and i'm assuming, it's yours." i open the top desk drawer of the nightstand, beside my bed and gently take the necklace, which had a little purple diamond in the middle to show it to her.

Her eyes widen as she quickly grabs it out of my hand. "Oh my god, i didn't even notice it not being there. Thank you so much."

She undoes the hook of it and puts it around her neck. The presence of it, on her neck, makes her figure look brighter than before. "What's that? Is somebody in there?" she questions, noticing the bumps in the blanket, which made it look like somebody was in there. "W-what? No! That's just a stack of pillows cuz i like having something to hug at night." i hurry to give her an answer as she just  shrugs it off.

"So, is that all?" she asks, before licking her lips once again. "Uh, yeah…i guess."

"Okay, so then…i guess, i should get going." i stratch the back of my head. "Bye" she waves her hand as i do the same. I let out a 'phew' in a whisper as she turns around and turns the door knob around. A heavy groan, leaves the mouth of the woman beside me, under the covers.

"Mmm, Eunwoo." She lets out, pulling the comforter down and peeking out with her head.

She moves towards me, resting her head on my lap and wrapping her arms around my hips. She closes her eyes to get back to her sleep. My eyes widen as i notice Hyejin turning around. Her eyes widen at the figure laying on my lap. "Y…you said that…it was just a stack…of pillows."

"U-uh, i…i--" i hesitate to let a word out of my mouth as anxiety takes over me. I could see how her eyes glistened because of her tears. "W…why would you…lie l…like that?"

I was out of words yet, i tried to say something. "I--" her words cut me off, before i could even speak a single word. "I'm sorry, it's your life. I don't have a say in it...i shouldn't have a say in it. I'm sorry, i apologize…i'll just go and mind my own business." she lets out in a broken voice as a tear, leaves one of her eyes.

"N-no! Wait!" i try to stop her but she just ignores my words and leaves as i face palm myself. "God, Eunwoo. What is wrong with you?" i ask myself as the woman beside me, stirs in her sleep.

HYEJIN'S P.O.V

"I'm sorry, it's your life. I don't have a say in it...i shouldn't have a say in it. I'm sorry, i apologize... i'll just go and mind my own business" i let out in a broken voice as a tear leaves my eye.

"N-no! Wait!" i hear him yelling, but i decide to ignore it. I close the door behind me and run towards my own room. I accidentally, push a maid, knocking the tray of tea out of her hand. "Oh my god. I'm so sorry. I'm just in a hurry, I'm sorry." i apologize and start running once again, not giving the maid a single chance to speak.

I unlock the door of my room as thousands of questions enter my mind. My teary eyes widen at the sight of a young man, i had met before sitting on the edge of my bed.

"W…what are you doing here?"
