Chapter Forty Five

2021-06-19 23:46:36When I wake up again, it's day time. The door leading to the balcony is open, and the white curtains are billowing into the house, commanded by a gentle breeze.
I feel much better than when I woke up before.
My phone is on the bedside cabin and I reach for it. A quick glance at the screen reveals it's almost noon. Hyun Bin must have left a long time ago, then.
I climb down from the bed and head to the bathroom. I take a shower, then get dressed in a pair of sweats and a t-shirt from Bella's wardrobe.
I head to the living room, planning to have a glass of water before calling Bella.
I halt in the doorway when my eyes land on Hyun Bin. He's sitting at the kitchen counter, hunched over a tablet. I hurry over to him. "What are you still doing here?"
He looks up, a smile lightening up his face. "Oh, you're awake. How are you feeling?"

"Have you always been so reckless?" I ask Hyun Bin as we stroll down an empty trail deep in Namsam arboretum.It's late Sunday evening, past nine o'clock. A good time to take a stroll here without bumping into someone every other second."You don't think I spend all my time indoors in fear of bumping into someone who recognises me, do you?" he asks."Well, I... I guess you don't.""I don't. I do come here often, in the evenings when it isn't crowded. I know all the trails we can take to avoid people.""Good to hear that," I say. I was against the idea of leaving Bella's apartment, much less in his company after everything that has happened. It's good to know this is something he has before.It was his idea to come to the park. Apparently, he didn't think it was good for me to remain cooped indoors after everything that transpired in the past few days. He said a breath of f

"So it's confirmed, you're not leaving, right?" Hyun Bin asks as we make our way out of the park. "You'll be back to work tomorrow."I'm just realising we never talked about that because when I found out I'd been saved from the fans' wrath, I was busy worrying about what my sister said. I agreed that I wouldn't go anywhere if he managed to solve the issue, and I guess it's solved now, but —"I haven't seen what your loving fans have to say about this," I tell him.I didn't revisit the issue after checking his sister's IG post because a part of me was afraid of coming across more negative comments. Therefore, since yesterday, I've been living in blissful ignorance, pushing my troubles to the back of my mind, binge-watching dramas, and eating a lot of snacks."Nothing bad, I assure you.""Well, then. I'll stay." After a pause, I add, "But, I don't think we should keep on with

I cannot believe what's happening right now.My brows pull towards each other as I examine Hyun Bin's face for a sign that he doesn't mean what he just said. "Are you serious?" I ask.Because he cannot be.From the start, dating has been out of the picture. It's not an option."I don't think I've ever been as serious about anything else as I am about this," he replies.I remember when we first got together. It was supposed to be one harmless night. But that wasn't enough and we came back for more. And now...No.I might have given in to my attraction to him and agreed to take it past that night, but that's as far as I'm willing to go.I turn my face, freeing it from his caress, and attempt to pull my hand from his hold. He doesn't let go, tightening his grip on it instead."Tell me wha

A muffled chuckle escapes my lips. I liked him way before I met him. It's funny that back then, when I was his fan and nothing more, the idea of dating him was like a dream I would have loved so much to become true, but one I knew would never be. If someone would have told me I would get the chance and turn it down, I would have called them crazy. Being lost in my fantasies and being faced with the real thing are two different things."I like you," I confess. "And that's why I can't date you.""That makes no sense."To someone else, it doesn't. But to me, it makes perfect sense. I like him right now. The thought of him makes me feel warm, and when I'm with him, everything else disappears. Dating him, allowing myself to think of him as a potential boyfriend, means those feelings will get intense. Fast. Then I'll have no control.He appears by my side and I take in a shaky breath.

**Hyun Bin's POV** "You did what?" I grimace, avoiding looking at Michael because I don't need to see his face to know how mortified he is by my story. I instead settle for gazing out of the windows of his penthouse apartment by the Han river, focusing on the city lights on the other side. It's breathtaking. Maybe I too should move here. It's Monday, and I came here as soon as I left work. Michael is the only person in this world I can talk to about what's going on with me and Emma, and God knows I need to talk to someone about it. "Why would you do that?" he asks again, disbelief evident in his words. I know. A few weeks ago, even I wouldn't have thought that I was capable of doing something like this. But then again, a few weeks back, I had no idea my feelings would fúck me up like this. "I freaked out, okay?" I defend myself.

**Emma's POV** "You're so pretty." I focus on my breathing and refuse to melt into a puddle. I can't do anything about the blush rising on my face, but hopefully my skin tone hides it on my behalf. "No wonder Mr. Park is hooked." My eyes grow to the size of saucers and the pin that I'm holding in one hand pricks a finger on the other. I flinch and draw my finger to my mouth, sucking on the injured tip. Byun Jihoon drops the mischievous look on his face, becoming apologetic. "I'm so sorry. Does it hurt?" "I'll survive," I tease, but even that isn't enough to erase what has already left his lips. "She's super talented too," Kang Soo, who's also in the room but busy on his phone, adds. I shoot a quick "please help me" glance to Jae-in, but I could as well be screaming for help and he wouldn't

"Waiting for an important message?" I place my phone upside down on the cocktail table between us and give Bella a small smile. "Nope." She lifts an eyebrow, as if not believing me. I didn't want her to see that I kept checking my phone all the time, but I guess I wasn't as discreet as I'd hoped. We are at her mother's engagement party. Her mother, Isra, spent three weeks at the hospital in Jeju. Bella stayed over for the first week before coming back to Seoul. In that time, they talked and her mother revealed what had been going on with her in the past year. About a year ago, she got into a relationship with a man who specialized in yatch robberies. He sought to bring her into the business, and Isra, being the impulsive risk taker she was, — moreso when she believed she was in love, which has happened often over the years — agreed.

Hyun Bin walks through my door a little past eleven o'clock. I bailed on Bella and left her to familiarise further with her soon-to-be family when after sending a text — which she dictated — Hyun Bin replied within minutes saying he'll be seeing me tonight. I felt like I'd won the lottery. Not only am I horny and so ready to get down and dirty with him right now, but I'm also a bundle of nerves and my stomach is filled with butterflies. This has never happened before. Not to this extent. My reaction is no longer based on my appreciation of what a fine specimen of a man he is. It's purely stemming from the fact that he's finally here, with me. It feels even better because for the first time, I'm not fighting it. I'm sitting on a couch, with the TV on and my bare feet resting on the edge of my coffee table. I was trying to go for a relaxed pose. So, when he walks in, I fight the urge to rush to my feet and run into h

One Year Later "Thank you for coming. Bye, have a safe ride home." I walk back towards the entrance and heave a sigh of relief. That was the last guest to leave. The night is finally over, and as much as I enjoyed it, my legs are killing me from being on my feet all evening. Before getting back into the building, I come to a halt and stare at the shining sign above the entrance. Emma's. The smile that has been assaulting my lips every time I see that logo appears. It still feels unreal. A year ago, I never would have thought I would be launching my company today. I've spent the last year planning everything and putting together my first collection while also working for one of the biggest fashion houses in the city.

"Stop worrying," Hyun Bin urges as he closes the door behind us. We've ended up in a condo by the beach. He takes hold of my hand and pulls me to him. He cradles my face in his hands and looks at me earnestly. "Everything is going to be fine. I promise." After he explained everything during the ride over, I tried to be positive. Everything he's telling me points to a massive exposé that's going to cause ripples countrywide and clear up a lot of misunderstandings from the past. But there's a part of me that's reluctant to relax. I've watched him battle negative press time and again successfully, but it only provides temporary reprieve. When the next scandal arises, it's as if he never proved himself before. How many times does he need to prove himself before people leave hi

In the morning, my mother shakes me awake. I realise the sofa bed is pulled out and I'm covered up. When I cried myself to sleep last night, I didn't get up to pull the bed out or get a blanket. "Emma, wake up. You have a visitor." I sit up, half-confused. "What? Me? Who? What's the time?" Why would I have a visitor in Busan? I don't have any friends here. "It's six." And who on earth pays someone a visit so early? "Emma?" I stare at my mother, uncomprehending. Someone else just called my name. Someone with Hyun Bin's voice. I whip my head towards the direction of the door. Hyun Bin i

When I get to the station in Busan, I get a taxi and give the driver the address Jennifer sent me. It's an address for an apartment in Daeyeon, which has me a little confused. All along, I thought I was headed to Haeundae, where Louise lives. Unless Jennifer got a separate place. I arrive after about ten minutes and make my way to the fourth floor. I ring the bell and the door opens a few seconds later. Jennifer is standing on the other side, dressed in a purple shirt and black slacks. It looks like work uniform. She smiles at me and reaches for my suitcase. "Emma! Come in." "Thanks," I step over the threshold and walk into the room. The living room is about the size of mine, but it's a lot neater. "I didn't know you had your own place." She closes the door and comes after me. "Yes, I… Louise go

By the time we emerge from the bedroom, it's dark out and I'm starving. We plan to make dinner together, but Hyun Bin excuses himself to his study room first. I've kept him away from work for long enough, so I don't try to hold him back anymore.When he finally reappears, the spicy chicken stew I'm making is almost done, same as the rice. I'm in the middle of preparing a vegetable salad.He walks over and gives me a kiss on the forehead. "I'm sorry, that took longer than I expected.""No worries, I've got this covered."He sniffs the air. "Yeah, I can tell." I dig my elbow into his side playfully. He chuckles and moves away. "I'll set the table.""Any developments?" I ask later when we're at the table."There's a

I head to the bathroom and when I come back, I run into Hyun Bin heading into his study room. I frown and walk over. "What are you doing?" "I have to take care of some stuff." I shake my head and reach for his hand. "You've been at work all night. Did you sleep at all?" "Don't worry about me. I was an idol, remember? I've gone for days without sleep." I shake my head. "You need to rest. Dealing with everything when you're tired will only make you more frustrated." "Emma, every second I don't spend looking for who is behind all this is another second of people smearing your name all over the place." "I don't want you to sacrifice your health for that. I'm sure your team is handling everything well. Come." I

I taste the orange juice on his lips. But that's not the reason my insides are in a knot. I thought I'd never feel his lips against mine again. My eyes are closed tight, but I don't need to look to know I've caught him by surprise. I pry his lips apart with mine, giving him a soft kiss. "Emma--" "Kiss me." It's too quiet. The sound of our breathing is the only thing in my ears. He makes no move for so many seconds that I believe he's not going to. By when I'm about to pull away, his lips crash into mine. I lock out all thought from my mind and kiss him back, taking everything I can. I didn't realise how much I missed this. Not just kissing him but being thi

I make a call to Bella and let her know what's up. After that, I spent most of my time pacing around Hyun Bin's living area, waiting for him to show up. He disappeared into his study room after we agreed on what to do about the dating rumours. He hasn't come out of the room since. The company has already released a statement revealing that the song leak was an intended early surprise for the fans. Another statement noted that I'm not related to any anti-fan activities. But fans' reactions show they need more than a couple of statements to go by. Many think this is PR's way of saving the company's face. Unless they sue someone for the false accusations and reveal a motive, nothing is going to be convincing. I want to ask Hyun Bin whether they've found something on Fiona. But that's not the only thing that has me restless.

"What do you think you're doing?" I demand, fixing my eyes on Hyun Bin. "Are you okay? Did anyone hurt you?" he asks instead of answering my question. His eyes roam all over my body, as if searching for a sign of injury. "I'm fine!" I snap. I was fine before he showed up. "Why the hell are you here? You made things worse!" "There are crowds of angry fans outside your building, Emma! How exactly did I make this worse?" "I had a plan! I was going to leave, unnoticed, before you showed up and made a show of it. God knows what they're saying now." His jaw clenches. "Where were you going to go?" "Bella's." "They know about Bella's."
