Chapter 4 - Someone Wanted To Steal Him From Me

Yong In went to the class as usual the next day. They're free now since it's the last week of school. Everyone are gossiping with each other but Yong In just sitting at her seat reading a book. Then, a group of girl approach her.

"Hi, Yong In. Do you know me?" Yong In raised her head.

"What game are you playing now, Yu In? You're my desk mate. Of course I know you."

"Oh, I'm glad. I thought you will forget about people around you after you got a rich boy." Yu In said arrogantly.

"What do you mean by that?" Yong In was confused at what was coming out from her desk mate's mouth.

"Stop pretending already... The whole school knows about it. I think you didn't know it yet but there's a rumor spreading about you now. Just be prepare. There's more to come for you. Good luck!" Yu In and her friends left to their own seat.

'What did she mean? Rumor about me? What did I do?' As she was thinking about what Yu In could mean, a group of boys get into the class.

" Yong In, I never thought you're that kind of girl! No wonder you rejected all of us! You're after wealth!"

"What do you mean by that?! Watch your mouth! I rejected you all because I don't like you! Do I need a reason to like or dislike someone?" Yong In can't hold it anymore and she stood up to vent her anger.

"Oh really? That's what you said. We don't believe you! We already know you're with Sung Ki! Although he's younger than you, but he's rich. That's why you accept him, right?" Yong In finally understood what's really going on. Suddenly, someone punched the boys and he stood in front of Yong In.

" Sung Ki... " He turned towards her and held her shoulder.

" Sis, you're okay? " She nodded.

" Yow ! Your younger boyfriend tried to be a hero."

"Enough already! I think you all misunderstood it. I have nothing with Sung Ki. We're just like a sibling so please... Stop spreading rumors about us."

"Who would believe that?! Everyone saw it yesterday after school festival, right? She went with him and his father! Why would a relationship like siblings meet each other's parents? Even if you're just siblings, it still can't deny that she's after wealth! "

" You said that again, I'll punch you! " Sung Ki was about to confront him but Yong In stopped him.

" Don't do something stupid, Sung Ki... We can talk about this without using violence. " Yong In whispered at Sung Ki. He looked at her and nodded while smiling.

"Okay everyone hear this. We're just like siblings. If you don't believe it, it's up to you but one thing I want to clarify is Sister Yong In is not after my wealth. She don't even know that I came from a rich family. She only knew it yesterday because my father meets her and after that he treated us to dinner, that's all. I don't care you want to believe it or not. Just say what you want but if I heard anyone called my sister a gold digger, I won't let them go! Understood! " Sung Ki held Yong In's hand and dragged her outside of the class.

" Sis, you okay, right? " They sat on the field hugging their knees.

" Yeah, I am. Thanks for coming. "

" Of course I will come. It's involving me too. They went overboard. Did they think they're starring in an action movie? Come to attack a person with a gang like that?"

"I also don't know what hit their head. They acted like madmen. Have you been rejected before?"

"No."

"Right, you're handsome. Who would reject you?"

"No. I never confess to anyone before." Sung Ki rubbed his neck in embarassment.

"Are you kidding me? Then, you never like anyone before?"

"No, I never like anyone before. But now, I have someone in my heart."

"Really? Who is it?! Tell me if you want to confess to her. I'll help you."

"It's a secret. And I don't think it's a suitable time to confess to her."

"Why so?"

"Because all of the men that confessed to her before rejected by her. I'm afraid I'll be one of them. Besides, I don't want to lose her."

"Are you close with her?"

"Yeah. That's why I'm afraid. I'm afraid we can't continue our normal relationship anymore if I tell her my feelings."

"Aww... My little brother has a crush... She must be lucky... It's okay. You're close to her, right? You can make her slowly fall for you. And when you're confident that she likes you too, go and confess. Is that make you better?"

"Sounds like a good idea. Enough about me. How about you?"

"Me? What?"

"Do you have someone that you likes?"

"For now, I don't have. I want to focus on study first."

"Oh..."

~~~~~~~~~~

Yong In double checked all her needs and when everything is ready, she zipped the luggage and dragged it outside of her room.

"Have your friend arrive ?" Her mom asked as she saw her.

"Um.. I don't think so. It's okay. It's still early though."

"Then, have a breakfast first." She nodded and sat on the table. Then, her phone ringed. She picked it up.

"Hello? You've arrived? Okay, I'll go out now." She hung up and washed the dishes.

"I'm going now, mom."

"Okay. Take care and have fun!" Yong In dragged her luggage outside and Sung Ki held her hand dragging him into the car. His driver put the luggage in the boots and drove the car.

"Are you excited?" Sung Ki asked.

"Yeah! I can't wait to see the view there! It must be beautiful, right?"

"Of course. You'll stunned at the beauty later." Sung Ki winked. The journey took about an hour. Yong In fell asleep and Sung Ki put her head on his shoulder. He admired her beauty face as she's sleeping.

"Young master, we've arrived." The driver said and Sung Ki nodded. He woke Yong In up.

"Sis, we're here." Yong In wake up and looked outside.

"Let's go." Sung Ki held her hand and went out of the car. The driver dragged their luggages to the receptionist. The worker gave them a key and another worker came to take their luggages to their room.

"Let's eat first. My parents are waiting." They went to the outdoor cafe and Sung Ki spotted his parents.

"Mom, you haven't meet her, right? She's Kim Yong In."

"Hello, Ms. Lee. Nice to meet you."

"So, this is Yong In? Finally, I can meet you face to face."

"Come you both. Sit down." Mr. Lee invited them to sit.

"I don't have any appetite anymore. I'm going to get some air." Ms. Lee got up from her seat and walked away.

"Don't mind her. Just eat." Mr. Lee ensured them. Yong In feels uncomfortable with Ms. Lee's behaviour. She looked at Sung Ki and he gave her an ensuring look.

"Sis, how about we take a walk around the resort? I'll show you the best view ever." Sung Ki asked as they finished eating.

"Sure. Uncle, we'll get going first." Mr. Lee nodded and they left. Mr. Lee went to find his wife and then he found her sitting at the lobby.

"What's wrong with you earlier? Don't you know it's rude to serve our guest like that?"

"I'm rude? Then she? She doesn't even know her place. How dare she took my son from me?!"

"She took him away? Ms. Lee, he's a grown-up now. Sooner or later, he will meet a woman that he likes and get married."

"So what?" She left again. Mr. Lee sighed.

~~~~~~~~~~

Yong In and Sung Ki walked around and he told her everything interesting about the resort.

"Eh, you two also have a fun here?"

"Yu In? What are you doing here?"

"What do you think? I'm having a vacation. Since we met here, how about we have some fun together?"

"Are you okay with it, Sung Ki?"

"I'm okay as long as you're okay."

"Sure then. What do you have in mind?"

"How about a barbecue tonight?" Both of them agreed and they went back to the lobby. Sung Ki went to the receptionist.

"Excuse me."

"Yes, young master. What can I help you?"

"I wanna have a barbecue activity with my friends. Can you arrange for it?"

"Sure."

"Thank you." Sung Ki went back to them and held Yong In's shoulder.

"All set."

"Umm... I want to go to the toilet." Yu In said.

"Ah, it's..." Yong In was about to tell her the direction but she's been cut off.

"How about you just come with me?"

"Ah,okay then." Both of them left to the toilet and as soon as they entered the toilet, Yu In locked the door.

"Yong In... You better tell me the truth. What's your relationship with Sung Ki?"

"I've told you already, right? We're just like a brother and sister."

"Really? Then, can I become his sister too?"

"What do you mean?"

"Why? You don't allow it? You can be his sister but I can't?"

"No, of course not. It's not like he's mine."

"Then, it's a deal, right? I'll ask him to be my little brother tonight. What do you think?"

"It's up to you." Yong In opened the door and left.

"Sis, you're back? All the ingredients and tools are ready."

"Umm... Sung Ki... I felt dizzy. I want to rest at my room. You go on with the barbecue. Don't mind me."

"Then, let me send you."

"No, it's okay. You should help them. I can go by myself." He nodded and she left to the room. Yu In came back from the toilet and Sung Ki went to her.

"Sung Ki... What's up?"

"What did you do to her?"

"Her? Who? I didn't do anything."

"Stop pretending. A fake people like you can't trick me at all."

"You like her, right? You never thought of her as a sister, right?"

"Yes, so what? Is there any problem?"

"Yes. I like you, why?"

"Don't talk nonsense here!"

"I'm not talking nonsense. I'm deadly serious. I know you don't like me. But, at least I'm brave in confessing my feelings but you? You can only be by her side as her little brother?"

"You still don't know her, huh? Well, I can understand that. You never thought of her as a friend. So I warn you! Don't bother her anymore!" He walked away to the room.

"Aish! Why did everyone in this world like her so much?! What did she have that I don't?!"
