Once they surpassed the police station, Seo-Jin got out of the car precipitously without glimpsing at him, his son.
So did the Ji-Hoon, he followed his father without interrupting his actions, he entered the police station.
"Dad?"
"Please call Jae out, I have something to discuss with her," however he came across that his presence was nowhere to be displeased so he went straight away, interpreting the officer.
"Dad?"
"Ji-Hoon, I've decided already so don't come up with your opinions," Ji-Hoon knew that his father wouldn't do something that would be against them.
"But what are you going to do?"
Stopping by the time, they arrived in for their private conservation into a cell at the end of the station.
"You will see!" he whispered before occurring in front of her.
Without responding to him, he too followed to appear against his mother.
"Oh so here you come!" she let out with the smirk on her face, which boiled blood inside his veins, Ji-Hoon.
"Yes, Ji-Hoon when the lawyer will make it to the police station?"
"On his way!"
He nodded and sat against her, on the chair.
"So can we discuss your alimony because divorce papers are ready and to my bad luck I have to give you my money," even everyone out there would know that how annoyed he felt through his tone?
"I have earned money, and what divorce papers, I won't sign them," Ji-Hoon was standing at the entrance of the cell, crossed hands over his chest, his sights were focused on her, noticing her words but when she let out that she wouldn't see those divorce papers that made him consider his steps closer to that woman whom he hates now.
"Oh, then you need money to sign them, sign them and Dad will throw money right on your face, thinking that he gave money in charity because I can't tolerate you in our lives anymore, whether you die or live I won't care but I don't want you in front of my sight," his intense words specialized as a sharp knife, stabbed Jae, she got hurt by his brutal tone, executing wrong didn't make her thinks for once that someday people would start hating her, and when she started getting those hateful comments from people, she got terrified.
"Mind your words, Ji-Hoon. Mind the place," his dad warned him, minding the place.
Again without reporting, he was just authorized to hang around silent for the time.
"I guess you aren't aware of the outside world, let me show you," Seo spoke while grabbing his phone, and coming with the same news he asked Shik to do.
"See!"
However, before she could lay her eyes over through that articles which were getting a lot of hate, wishing death to her would work to intimidate her.
"Here's lawyer, and if you don't want any struggle for you once you come out of here, sign these documents for your good and moreover about alimony, you are free to take anything except the company," Seo won, threatening her but her expression stayed the same.
"You are threatening me?" she whispered out in a warning tone.
"I guess!" he taunted.
"Sign them otherwise living in this world would be the same as hell for you," he added.
"Already sign them because I don't my fucking mother to suffer badly," Ji-Hoon said with gritted teeth.
"How can you hate me this much? huh? I'm your mother," tears would be now falling from her sight if she wouldn't be here in the station.
"You aren't my mother, the moment you thought of hurting your daughter, and someone for whom I fight for my life, one more thing I hate you better remember when you consider yourself mother," his words were enough for Jae, to know that whom she loved, was now using brutal language for her.
Trying to hide the pain, she smiled in her direction.
"Now sign them, maybe you would have some of Dad's money to feed yourself," he added.
She cleared her throat and looked towards her husband who held the same look for her, as her son.
She gulped down the grief, and spoke, "Okay, I will sign them, just to get away from you guys," she forwarded her hand for those documents, wanting her husband to pass them.
"Before signing, tell me what you want," he spoke.
"What can you give me?"
"You have to decide,"
"So, if-" she was interrupted by him, continuing with the alimony, he decided.
"50% of my assets are yours after you sign the papers, and for your living, you have to look yourself," he said, and he also felt relieved when she didn't bring the contract signed before a couple of years.
"I want to add something?"
"What?"
"Such a greedy woman," Ji-Hoon mouthed almost whispering but was quite audible for her, instead of replying she just giggled painfully.
"Mansion in Milan," Ji-Hoon loosened the crossed hands, and Seo-Jin straightened his back, almost unable to form any word out of his mouth.
"You are out of your mind, that is for Jin-Ae. Dad, say to her," Ji-Hoon was cursing her under his breath.
"I can't give you that," he breathed the air of relief when he heard his dad, denying her request.
"Sorry, then I can't sign the papers," she said and slacken the traction on the pen, which dominated to the volume of the pen clattering.
"Such a voracious bitch," Seo-Jin mouthed unpleasant words for her.
And darted at her with outraged eyes.
"Alright, you can have that," unfortunately he had to because removing such a woman from his family's lives was such a blessing, so he didn't mind letting go of such a beautiful mansion that he got designed for her daughter.
"No, you can't do that, you yourself looked after that for Jin-Ae, that you would gift her on her wedding, no don't do that," he walked towards him,
"Mansion doesn't matter when she can get out of our lives, I have many more but I can't let her breathe for a minute the air, as we," and that's when he became silent, trying to understand his father and he did because he too wanted to get rid of that person as soon as possible.
"Alright, let get rid of her," he whispered.
"Now sign them," he spoke.
In addition, she signed them without any question and threw them in Ji-Hoon's direction.
"Congratulations son, I'm out now, you can smile," she let out, and the lawyer grabbed those papers to look after if she signed correctly.
"This is done, Mr Seo," the lawyer spoke.
He nodded.
"Gladly I will," Ji-Hoon, and taunted her with the wide smile on his face.
"Let's go and Jae, you will out of here in a couple of days, Happy Stay," these were the last words, he spoke before leaving the cell.
Reaching Home:
"What happened?" Ari ran out towards Ji-Hoon, holding the threads of concern on her face.
He smiled for her, watching her running towards him, both of them grabbed seats on the couch.
"Aunt, please please water," Ari said, to her aunt standing near the dining table.
She nodded and poured water for both of them.
"Thank you," Dad and son said in unison, passing the grin in her direction.
"Did she ask for shares?" she questioned,
"I'm glad, she didn't daughter, maybe she forgot about that because that happened years ago, I'm relieved that company is safe from her," Seo-Jin spoke.
"I'm so relieved that she didn't," she added, returning the same to him.
"Ji-Hoon, Go to the company after your rest and look after Shik whether he did or not! I'm going to my room,"
"I will, you take rest," he said, watching his dad disappearing from the space.
"So? Are you hungry? Should I make you something?" Ari asked after glancing at her husband, resting by the support of the couch.
"Yeah! Please I even forgot to eat breakfast, bring it to our room, going for the shower," he said.
"Okay, I will quick," she said and left him shocked by the peck she left on his cheek, and his cheek started to get the shade, looking at her walking towards the kitchen.
Her lips curled into a wide smile, as his hand caressed the cheek, she kissed on.
_______________
~Jin-Ae:)
Being obscene when I couldn't get the taxi right at the time because I comprehended he would run after me, trying to say and cover it with a filthy excuse that I am going to plummet for.
Was on the verge of breaking down but after visualizing him, kissing that girl, hovering over her, almost half-naked, made me realise he wasn't meriting of sheds, so I wiped them off, and looked for any taxi to pass by but being hard-luck all the time, there was no any taxi discerned around the place.
"Jin-Ae?"
I knew he would come to me, heavily breathing, my throat became sour, expression held coldness now nothing for him, eyes purely held rage against him because he didn't deserve any sensitivities from me.
Feeling him, walking near to me from the corner of my eyes, I attempted to preserve a distance because now it undoubtedly evolved arduous to behold him from those love-filled eyes, so I budge from there to the other side.
"Please stop, Jin-Ae?" he almost yelled, for a quiet moment I noticed his accent, he seemed hurt, I licked my teeth and stopped on the spot, wanting to listen to him.
I craved for him for ages, but all he did was to get evolve with another woman.
He walked closer to me and held me by the shoulder which I yanked at the same moment and moved a step back.
He sighed, noticing me walking back from him, which disheartened me a lot, budge move an inch to let him notice that so diverting eyes away, was only I left with.
"I'm sorry, but please talk somewhere else, please," he pleaded and eventually I looked into his eyes.
My heart conk out already watching him like that but seeing his tears shattered me painfully.
"About what?" I spoke without any emotions.
"I'm sorry please, Jin-Ae don't leave without listening to me," he fell on his knees, holding my hands, and cried aloud enough, I bite my bottom lips from crying out.
"Get up, you are in front of your company, people would see you," I spoke.
"I don't care," he spoke, without thinking twice, which made me chuckle sarcastically pit of reason.
"Okay, let's go," I said, and he got up instantly.
His eyes.
We gathered space near his company in the cafe.
For the whole time, he didn't let go of my hands, I didn't mind because I didn't wish to upset him.
"Speak!"
He gulped down the lump, before gathering the courage to speak, I knew he did it mistakenly however, I didn't want to believe it because I was hurt and moreover, he did it without realising what he was doing.
My eyes were fixed on him, and soon our eyes connected when he tried to speak.
"I know you are hurt but trust me I didn't it intentionally, I was drunk last night, and I wasn't feeling good from the morning, I couldn't hold the sight of anything for a moment and before I could she appeared....and I thought it was you..." he paused because I interrupted him.
"What a shame, you couldn't recognise me... surprising," I know he would have noticed my tears by now.
"I'm sorry, Jin-Ae but please trust me I have nothing to do with that girl, please trust me," his eyes held sincerity, which was of no use now.
"I can't forget what I saw even you say it or not, I was...hurt," my voice cracked and I am sure that tears rolled down cheeks because he pressed his thumb to wipe them off.
"Don't," I said and jerked his hand away from me.
"I know you are hurt.."
"I know you can see that because I am...I waited for your arrival, thought that when I would see you I don't know how happy that moment would be in my life, but when all memories flashbacked that you left without any notice, it broke my heart and here you are busy with that girl," I broke down in front of him, he was left whom I thought would hurt me after brother but he did whether it was intentional or not I didn't care.
"I loved you when you weren't there for me, I couldn't even imagine how I suffered alone without being with someone who cared for me!"
"Jin-Ae, you are the only woman whom I love, and I can swear to that, and I care for you, I didn't come for you because of your mother, I thought that she would hurt you if came to know about me, that scared me the most,"
"And you think without you she didn't hurt me...." I laughed when those memories played in my head "...she did you know,"
I could see his expression change from guilty to outrage, but it didn't affect me.
I stood up because I didn't think he had anything else, and I didn't want him to regret over bad happening in my life.
He sensed my presence and joined me.
"I'm leaving, and I have listened to you too," I said and moved towards his seat.
I didn't think twice before grabbing his collars, bending him to my height, for some moment, I got lost in his eyes before connecting my lips with his as a goodbye kiss because I didn't wang myself to get hurt because I couldn't have him in life, I but promise I would always love him.
"I love you," I said and connected my lips with his, at first he was taken back by the boldness of me, but then soon he grabbed me by the waist, pulling me closer, my hands were holding his collars tightly as his hands roamed around my back, I smiled sadly which I thought this was the last time, I could ever love him, kiss him.
I didn't pull away because I couldn't get enough of him, so I deepened the kiss, by wrapping my hands around the neck. Feeling me smile, made me smile too but when I felt something wet on the cheeks, I opened my eyes and saw him crying silently with closed eyes.
I pulled away because I couldn't the sight of him, crying, so did he.
"I love you, goodbye."
