Chapter 2 - Death

She was scared to lose something which was not even hers.

She was in deep thoughts when a tall figure entered the room.

" You hadntt signed this till now? " He asked checking the papers which were on the coffee table.

It was sounding like he was simply guestioning her.

But to Yiren it sounded in two other ways, 1) He was mocking her for being so desperate to not sign those papers.

2) He was tired that this thing isnt done yet and he already had wasted time to come home an hour earlier today for something like this.

Both sounded right to her. She didn't reacted.

" Why didnt you signed those papers earlier and sent it with Mr. Kwon? " He again asked while leaning in the single seated sofa to relax himself. "| was waiting for you " It was not the first time she had said this to him but she felt a lump in her throat this time.

"to explain. " She completed these words with difficulty.

She felt him staring at her. She was sitting on the bed while side facing him. It felt like the longest he ever stared at her. But the more he more

stared at her, the more she wanted to cry loud, biame him, beg him to not leave, and to love her.

" Explain what? 1 knew you were dumb but now the situations have turned like this and you're still asking an explanation for divorce which should've happened much earlier if Grandpa had not asked me to bear with it but now he's also not here. " He said expressionlessly while loosening his tie.

Yiren wanted to explain herself but what will she say? The whole family . blamed her because she was the last one who met grandfather before his death. Thre reason was taking too much stress and being depressed e all the time which lead him to have a deadly panic attack. He was the only one who accepted her in the whole house and they're blaming her that she must've fought with him. Well they weren't wrong but the whole truth was different and she was sure that no one will ever trust her. "Sign these by tomorrow. " He said before shutting the door of the room.

Silence enguifed the whole room but some muffied cries could be heard in the silence.

What did she expected? That he will cancel the divorce thing? She Couldn't even say him more than one line. Is she this worthless?

With the rest of her self-respect she got of the room after signing those papers. She felt another loud silence in the whole mansion. Mu Chen must've gone to his penthouse. His father and mother are also out in a business project. Maids were also gone as their working hours were finished.

She took her belongings which were just few and stuffed in her bag and proceeded to drag it loudly on the stairs. She was going to step outside when she remembered something.

She kept her bag outside and started walking towards the grand room which was near the garden.

She stopped at the door which was locked. It had been more than a month he left this world. She saw a big picture frame beside the room. Father and mother Mu were standing beside each other. Mu Chen was beside his father. Yiren was standing beside mother Mu , behind grandpa Mu and he was sitting in a royal wooden chair.

Only he and her were laughing. The last conversation between them started playing in her mind. She stood strongiy to not cry while leaving all this.

"Im sorry Grandpa. I broke our promise. I couldn't make him fall in love with me. I'm so sorry for fighting with you that day. I know that saying this will not bring you back but there's one promise | want to do. I promise that if I ever got a second chance in this life I will try to keep you happy and alive for a long time. I hope you rest in peace. "Yiren

bowed her head and ran from there with tears in her eyes.

She drove her only car she got from her mother with her belongings in it

It was dark in the night. She was in so much pain that her vision was getting blurry.

She was driving without any sense that the time she realized that she's going to hit a car coming her way, she turned her steering wheel forcefully causing her car to get crashed at a electric pole which broke from middle and fall on the car.

Yiren who was all bloody by now realised that her car caught fire because of that she was feeling suffocated and tears were making her vision more poor.

" Yiren " She heard an old fatherly voice calling her.

She was poorly stuck that she couldn't even move a limb. She realized that the voice which called her was of Mu Chen's grandfather. She smiled sadiy and stopped making attempts to save herself. If this is how she's going to die then she had no complaints for this.
