Min's POV
I opened my eyes, as my blurry vision was keeping me from seeing my surroundings. When I fully got my senses back, I realised that I was in my own room. But why would I be here? -Oh shit!
I wiggled my body to move, but my body is tied to the chair, and that's why I can't move. My hands are tied behind it, as are my feet. I tried to scream for help, but my mouth was gagged, which is stopping me from doing so.
"You are finally awake." Han Byul got up from my bed as she yawned. She walked towards me, but when she was about to take the handkerchief away, she stopped and warned me.
"Don't make any noise, or I swear, I swear this time I'm going to cut my arm, not just my palm, and make it bleed more." Please, anything but that, I wanted to tell her. So I nodded in approval, and she removed the fabric from my mouth.
"Now what do you want?" I spat with an angry glare.
"Minie, please calm down. I'll explain everything, but you have to promise me that you won't hate me after this. Please, that's all I ask for." I grinned as I heard what she said.
"You are selfish, aren't you? Do you think that I could do that? "I already hate you." I growled and noticed the sadness in her eyes afterward. She tried to keep her tears from falling as I saw her clear her throat to say something. I want to hug her and tell her that it's okay, but I can't; it won't be that easy after all.
"Just listen to me then."
"Do whatever you want."
She sat on my bed as she looked at me. There were no emotions in my eyes as I looked at her.
'' Dad isn't just some businessman. Our family is more powerful than that, and that means that you and I are too. You are a part of this Yazuka clan of the Mafia tree the moment you are born in this family. It runs in your blood, Min Young."
"What the fuck?! Yesterday I just knew that you'd been killing people, and now you are telling me that I am in some sort of gang or something that associates bad people! Are you fucking kidding me, Noona?!"
"I'm not Min; I'm telling the truth."
"But what if I don't want to get involved in this?" What if I don't want to join this Mafia or anything? It just means murdering people for me ''.
"Murderer... " Noona mumbled as she started to cry. "I didn't know it would hurt this much if it came from you. But it's fine, Minie; I expected this to happen." She tried to give me a happy smile, but I know it's a fake one.
"We tried to hide this from you, but you have the right to know. When I was 2 years old, I was kidnapped by another Mafia clan. At that time, my father and mother both went crazy for me. Father searched for me everywhere but couldn't find me. At that time, I was given to another family who was also part of that Mafia clan; they brought me up for 4 years. And when my father found me at that time, I already considered my adoptive parents to be my real family. Uh, what would you get from a child after all? But when dad killed them in front of my eyes, I grew hatred towards him, but later, when I found out that the people for whom I used to hate my own father were child traffickers, Who took small children with them and sold them to the underworld market; they even plan to sell me too for a big amount. Yeah, I know at first it was difficult for me to believe that truth, but everything got settled with time. My dad's relationship got better. And it was me who asked him to train me so I could protect myself and my family in the future. ''
"You know, when I came home after 4 years, I found you in my mother's arms. Dad said when I went missing, my mother's mental condition was very bad because she could not cope with the fact that her child went missing without being found, and the doctor said the only way to bring her back to normal was to give her her child, and at that time you were born. And her mother's health also became normal. After everything that happened with my life, I didn't want that to happen with you too, so I vowed myself to always protect you from everything, but as long as I wasn't joining our clan, I couldn't do that, so I joined our clan.
Noona burst into tears as she covered her face. And I was a crying mess too at this moment. Up until now, I didn't even know how much she suffered.
"You know, father told me he could do anything for us, and he would never let anyone lay fingers on us; that's how much he loves us." Noona looked at me with tears in his eyes as he smiled.
"You used to be a baby back then, and I promised myself... I promised that I'd protect you with all my might. So please... do anything but hate me."
'Untie me!" I shouted in tears, trying to wiggle my body again.
Noona untied me with her knife, and I quickly hugged her tightly. I cried on her shoulders as she did too.
"I'm sorry, noona. I'm so sorry. "
"Shh, don't cry, Minie. Don't cry." She rubbed my back, and I cried even more.
"You idiot! You're the one who started crying!" We laughed as I giggled. We shared that long hug for a while before we cuddled in my bed like we always do. She was brushing my hair while I rested my head on his chest.
"Anyways, what do you mean by saying I was still a baby back then? That's impossible, you know? You're just a year older than me." She chuckled.
"I lied about my age. I am 26 years old, and I am older than you by 6 years. Dad faked my documents so I could protect you while you are in university. Every single time. And thanks to my young looks, no one has ever questioned me. I became your guardian angel ever since." I gasped and looked at her in shock.
"You are that old, and you didn't tell me?"
"Yah! How could you only pay attention to that?" She growled, and I laughed at her.
Thank God she is still my Noona. Who is obsessed with her beauty
=========================================
(TThe next day)
Since Noona and I are already fine about our whole fight, I am more than happy that I almost forgot about my other problem.
"This is it, Park Min Young! You could do this; you are the son of Park Hikaru, and no Park ever surrenders!"
"Aren't you being super dramatic? That's so cringey." I glared at Noona, who was lying on our club room's couch. She is now back to being a bitch, and gosh, I've made the wrong decision! I should've made her suffer more.
"Are you sure about this? Do you really think I should confess now?"
"It's now or never, Min-ah." I nodded and grabbed my phone from my pocket. I looked for Seo Jun's number and typed what I wanted to say.
(To: Seo Jun)
This is Park Min Young. I have something to say to you. Could you meet me in room 406 after class? This is really important. breathed in and out before I sent it. I kept on praying that he'd say yes. Please say yes! I waited for about five minutes before I got a response.
(From: Seo Jun)
Okay, I'll be there.
I squealed from the inside, and I think Noona noticed the happiness in my voice because she didn't bother to say anything or tease me after I walked out of our club room. I went directly towards the room and waited for Seo Jun to arrive.
10 minutes...
15 minutes...
30 minutes...
And I heard the door finally open from behind me. I was looking out the window while contemplating looking back. Maybe I shouldn't face him; maybe it would be better not to see his face. As Noona said, it's now or never. Whatever the result is, I'll gladly accept it.
I gulped and closed my eyes before I blurted out my feelings. "I really love you, Min Seo Jun! From the very moment I laid my eyes on you and talked to you, I knew that I loved you! And I still do! I want to be your girlfriend; I want to do romantic things like couples do, and I want to love you for years long!.. "Please accept my love, Min Seo."
I finally faced him.
I was shocked because when I looked at him,
He is not the person I expected.
"Daehyun?" My heart stopped.
He shouldn't be here listening to my confession for Seo Jun.
