“Why would you say sorry... It makes me feel more pathetic. At least it makes me realize what and who I actually am. So, thank you for opening my eyes before I could start playing this home-home game with you.” he hurriedly went to his wardrobe and then to the bathroom, not sparing her a single glance.
He somehow had an idea in his mind that whatever happened was not her fault and he should not act like this to her but his temper did not let him think that through.
Hani was just sitting on the bed on her knees, clenching her fist in her lap. Tae-Hoon had broken all the promises he made last day at the hospital, he told her that he would cherish her, he told her that he would be a better husband, he told her to stay happy and he said that she was not allowed to cry anymore.
But in a split of a second everything was shattered.
Coming out of the bathroom hurriedly, Tae-Hoon spared just a single glance at her. “If someone asks, tell them that I have a meeting.” he said and left for his office making Hani cry yet again, as she buried her face in her hands.
…
Se-Young just woke up, rubbing her eyes because of someone constantly knocking at the door of her room. She groaned while stretching her body and stood up, lazily going towards the door.
She opened it to be only welcomed by a hugging giant human being with broad shoulders and instantly got out of her sleepy state, pushing him away from her.
Dong-Hoon looked at her bewildered. “Are you going to repeat all the things again?” he asked, indicating that she had refused to accept his feeling the other day of kissing him for the first time.
Se-Young looked at her left and then right, making sure no one was witnessing the scene and sighed feeling at ease when there was no one and shook her head looking back at him. “No, you get offended so easily.” she said making Dong-Hoon more offended.
Chuckling to herself she pulled him inside her bedroom, closing the door afterward as Dong-Hoon widened his eyes at her bold actions. “You are being very bold.” he said placing his hands on his chest in a crossed manner, indicating as if he was scared for his body that might get taken advantage of by her.
She hit him on his upper arm, making him groan. “Tsk, I was just making sure that no one sees us.” she cleared her point.
“Oh... But why?” he asked raising his eyebrows. “I don’t want anyone to know about our relationship, at least not for now.” she said making Dong-Hoon scoff.
“Why?” he became upset.
“I... I am just embarrassed, okay. Tae-Hoon will tease the heck out of me and aunt will start preparing for our wedding.” she said looking away from him, trying to hide the blushie tint on her cheeks.
Clearing his throat, Dong-Hoon nodded his head, acknowledging the fact that Jung-Nan was capable of getting both of them married at this mere instant. “For how long?” he asked being sulky. “I don’t know but not for now.” he just sighed nodding his head, agreeing with her unwillingly and leaned his face towards her, pouting his lips.
Frowning her eyebrows, Se-Young asked, “What... are you doing?”
“I am sad, I need a kiss.” he said sadly at which Se-Young rolled her eyes and pushed him away by shoving his head away with her left hand.
Dong-Hoon huffed. “My girlfriend is so bad.” he sniffed, being dramatic, making Se-Young more pissed than she already was.
She opened the door and checked the surroundings once again. Looking at the clear path she said, “You can leave now.” and gave a tight-lip smile to him.
“I will not.” Dong-Hoon refused, crossing his arms.
“Why?... Do you want to join me in the shower?” Se-Young asked arching her left eyebrow, making Dong-Hoon flustered.
“Oh, I think mom is calling me.” he said awkwardly laughed, and hurriedly ran out of the room. Se-Young chuckled being grateful that her boyfriend was not a pervert like his youngest brother.
…
As if Se-Young had spoken too soon Dong-Hoon was caressing her right leg with his left foot under the table and was acting completely normal.
“Tae-Hoon?” Jung-Nan asked Hani. “Auntie... Tae-Hoon had a meeting to attend.” Hani said gulping down the saliva with nervousness and sat down on the chair.
Meanwhile, Se-Young smirked and pinched Dong-Hoon with her right foot on his left calf and he groaned, making other startled while Se-Young was trying her best, not to laugh out loud. “Ahahahaha....” he awkwardly laughed. “The food is too amazing.” he said through his clenched teeth.
“Big bro, you are being weird.” Ji-Hoon said continuing to eat and Jung-Nan and Min-Hoon just shook their heads continuing their breakfast as well.
Dong-Hoon glared at Se-Young, earning a smirk from her and pouted giving up on teasing her.
“Sweetheart.” Jung-Nan cooed to get Hani’s attention. “Yes, auntie.” she pouted hearing that word. “Why don’t you call me mom... I mean if you want to... I am not forcing you.” Jung-Nan smiled and looked at Hani with anticipation in her eyes.
Hani chuckled for the first time after the scene with Tae-Hoon in the morning. “Mom.” Hani said nodding her head, earning a bear hug from Jung-Nan.
Se-Young was looking at them, smiling slightly when Dong-Hoon nudged her to gain her attention. “You can call her mom as well.” he whispered and then winked at her, receiving a pinch in return on his thigh.
Poor him, could not even shout due to the pain since everybody was present there.
...
“Where are you going?” Dong-Hoon said to Se-Young as she was walking towards her scooty. “What do you mean. I am going to work.” Se-Young said frowning with confusion.
Dong-Hoon sighed, shaking his head. “We can go together.” he said pointing at his car.
