2021-08-04 09:18:37Janine was staring blankly at the food.
It’s been 4 days since Porter confessed to her but until now, she still couldn’t make herself believe that Porter was ignoring her because he was falling for her.
After Porter’s confession, she immediately ran out of his office and never came back. Whenever she sees him, she pretends like he’s not around. Whenever, he calls her to his office, she would ask Jonas to just go in her place and makes a variety of stupid excuses.
Ironically, she’s doing the exact same thing that L did to her. Avoiding.
“Don’t you think it’s time for you to eat?” Henney asked her. She has been watching her for minutes now and she’s wondering why Janine isn’t even touching her food.
Janine nodded and nonchalantly ate her food without a word.
Henney narrowed her eyes at her friend who’s acting all strange and all. “Is there something wrong?” She

“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck this!” Porter rummaged his fingers into his hair in frustration. This was what he wanted. It was what he needed. Space. Distance. Avoidance. But now that Janine has finally told him that they could never be friends, his heart couldn’t accept it. He couldn’t accept the fact that he fell for someone who couldn’t be his. He fell for someone who’s in a relationship. “Dude, she’s not yet married.” Hunter beamed at him as the three of them – Porter, Serge and Hunter – gathered around the living room. Porter gave him a look and Hunter just shrugged. “I bothered someone since Elementary, remember?” The latter beamed. “And now she’s married and I’m still bothering her.” Serge gave him a disgusted look. “Eew, Hunter Lee! What the hell are you thinking?” He scolded Hunter who just laughed at him. Hunter chuckled. “Dude, bothering her doesn’t mean I’m stealing her away from her husband, duh? I’m not that dumb to sacrifice m

“I can’t do this.” Janine whispered as Porter’s car parked in front of her condominium unit building.Porter looked at her with worried eyes. Somehow, he knew this would happen. He knew Janine. It’s hard for her to admit what she feels for him because she has someone else and it’s not easy to just throw away that one person who made her feel special for a long time.Janine sighed and looked at him. “Mr. Kim, you can’t be with me.” She beamed making Porter flinch. “Please, don’t do this.” She begged.Porter sighed and took her hands. “You feel something for me.” He told her with much conviction in his voice. He knows it. She likes him in one way or another. She responded to his kisses. She didn’t slap him or anything. She likes it. She likes him. And he knows it.Janine shut her eyes and sighed. “I don’t.” She denied with her heart beating really fas

Porter smiled as Janine hung up on her boyfriend. He didn’t expect her to act that way but at the same time, he is happy that somehow, she chose him – or at least that’s how Porter sees it.Janine gave him a look before passing by him, probably to get her things in the room.“Ride with me to the office,” Porter offered as he followed Janine to her room.Damn. Since when has he become so clingy for a woman? Why does he seem like he couldn’t last a second without seeing her face?Janine sighed and gave him a look. “Please, stop. Please.” She told him.Porter narrowed his eyes on her. Of course, she would ask him to stop. Of course, she would still deny her feelings for him. He could understand that it’s not easy to admit that you are attracted to someone else after liking only one person after all these years.Janine needs time. He knows it.But he will never stop making her realize

“Come on, Ms. Kwon.” Porter called Janine politely as he passed by their area. He is calling her to come with him for the end-of-the-month meeting with Mr. Lee.Janine looked at him and nodded, standing up then picked the folders they need for the presentation.To be honest, she’s a little too nervous for this meeting because she never had discussed this with L. She went inside his office just to go through a folder then cuddled with Porter. For twenty minutes, at most.She looked at Porter and he’s looking at her innocently, acting like he didn’t want to hug her tight right now, but he does.She walked after Porter to the elevator. She heard Porter sigh hard and looked at her.“Are you nervous?” He asked her.She nodded slightly. “I don’t know what to report.” She replied. For the first time in her life, she is getting wacked on a simple casual presentation. God knows that she&rsqu

“See you tomorrow, Kwon!” Yasmin bade her goodbye to Janine who’s still about to print another set of contracts for renewal for the deals that are about to expire.Janine smiled and nodded at her friend who walked out of the door and left her alone in the office. She should’ve finished this if it wasn’t for the end-of-the-month meeting held a while ago.She was busy arranging the printed contracts into their respective folders when she felt someone’s arms wrap around her waist making her jump in surprise.“Sshh,” she was particular that this person is none other than Porter. Even the way he hushes her is too obvious.“Porter!” She scolded him and tried to pry his arms away from her but he was holding onto her way too strongly for her to even push him away.She sighed. “What if someone sees us?” She hissed but L chuckled and kissed her neck. “There’s no one around, B

"Are you alright?"Porter asked Janine when he noticed that she's not talking much. It's not like she's talkative and all but she's abnormally quiet. She doesn't even answer Porter’s questions and just kept eating.Porter became worried. If this was about Czarina, he couldn't forgive himself.What in the world is she doing here anyway? She should've just stayed to where she is.Janine just nodded and continued eating her steak, without uttering a single word."Please, Baby, talk to me." He pleaded."I'm not your baby." She curtly replied.Porter sighed. What the hell is wrong with Janine? It's good if she's jealous but she doesn't have to act like this."Janine," he started. "If you're jealous, you could just—”"I'm not jealous. Why do I have to be jealous? I don't have the right to be jealous. Not even a teensy bit of jealousy." She remarked and Porter was taken aback.So, she is jealous. Or may

“Hey, Janine, look at that girl!” Yasmin was screaming at Janine in her whisper as she gawks at a woman who’s their age, wearing some nice clothes and killer heels, come inside their office.Almost all the men inside looked at her with jaws dropped while the girls gawked at her from head to toe.Janine looked at the said woman and there’s something in her head that clicked. Czarina Hwang. She can’t be mistaken. This is Porter’s ex.Czarina looked around and smiled when she saw Janine. She walked to her making Janine cringe and the other employees wonder. “You’re Porter’s workmate, right?” She asked in a tone that Janine didn’t like.Janine nodded. “Do you have an appointment with Mr. Kim?” She asked, not trying to beat around the bush.Czarina chuckled. “None.” She replied. “I just want to visit him.” She expanded.Janine nodded. “Does

Janine’s heart couldn’t stop beating really loud upon knowing that Johann is back in town. He’s back and he’s going to see her later.She walked back the office with her mind all over the place.Guilt.Pain.Sadness.She wanted him back, sure. But she didn’t expect that he’s back this early. So, that explains why Johann hasn’t contacted her for two days already.“Are you okay?” Yasmin asked her as she sat on her desk.Yasmin’s voice was a bit loud so everyone looked their way. Even Porter who’s talking to Jonas about a deal glanced at her.Janine looked at Yasmin and nodded. “Uh? Yes. I’m fine.” She lied but Yasmin could see through her. She knows that she’s lying.“Did your boyfriend tell you something sad?” She asked.“Did he hurt you, Manager Kwon? I’ll beat him to death if he comes back! Don’

It’s the day he’s been waiting for all of his life, the day when he marries and starts his forever with the woman he loves.“Agit.” Serge muttered beside him.Porter glared at him. “You don’t know the feeling, fucker.” He snapped at him.Serge laughed at his best friend. “You’re so nervous that Janine won’t come to your wedding!” He beamed and laughed together with their friends.“Serge is right, Porter. You’re so anxious.

Porter cupped her cheeks as he deepened his kiss. Janine couldn’t ask for more. All she needs is L right now. All she needs is to be by his side and everything will fall into place.“Our room is finished, Baby.” He spoke. “Can I take you there?” He asked carefully.Janine looked into his eyes and nodded.Porter smiled and took her hand into his, leading her upstairs to their room. Sure, he just wanted to show her every corner of the house but she’s making it hard for him.They stopped in front of a brown door. Porter smiled at her and turned the knob. “This is going to be our room, Baby.” He spoke as he unveiled the huge room with a king-size bed. The window was huge just like of those castles and palaces in the movies. It is designed. Even without questions, Janine would know that the room is designed.She entered the room and savored the depths of it. “This…” she couldn’t ev

Porter smiled as he finished the song and walked straight to Janine who’s still in awe of everything that’s happening.It’s complete. He’s finally complete.“Come again?” He asked as he held her arms, in disbelief of what she just said. He, too, is in awe of everything.Janine looked into his eyes and smiled sweetly. “Yes, Porter. I’m going to marry you.” She repeated.Porter smiled and pulled her in for a kiss. He didn’t want to kiss her in front of her parents but his urges are killing him. He wants her lips. He wants to own her. If possible, he wants to take her. If only he could do that now.“I love you, you know that, right?” He asked her as he connected their foreheads. “I’m going to tell you how much I love from this day forward.”Janine smiled and hugged him tight. Everything was worth it. All the pain, all the sacrifices, everything. Porter is

Porter held Janine’s hand as they walked to the celebration.Janine looked at Porter and smiled, still in awe that her parents are actually all for their relationship. She didn’t expect someone to like this relationship. She didn’t expect anyone to accept them but deep inside, she was wishing. She didn’t want to leave her family if they won’t approve them. But she knows she would if they don’t.“Are you happy?” Porter whispered as they stopped at the balcony of the houseJanine leaned on the railings, facing the garden while Porter enclosed his arms around her, leaning his chin on her shoulder. She smiled and nodded. “More than happy.” She said in a very soft voice.Porter smiled weakly. “Me, too. I am happy.” He whispered back. “I’m happier that your parents approved.” He added as he kissed her shoulder.Janine placed her arms on top of Porter’s arms en

“We’ll be okay.” Porter assured Janine as they boarded the plane to Busan. It was just yesterday when her mother called and, now, they’re going to meet her parents.She’s nervous for Porter. She saw how his parents disapproved of their relationship. Although she understood their point, she’s still sad about it. Well, how can you accept the fact that you’re not accepted by the important persons in the person you love’s life?It’s hard. But Porter is trying to convince her that it’s all going to be alright in the end. Just the two of them. They only need each other in this life.“How can you be so sure?” She asked as she sat on the seat beside the window.Porter smiled at her as he took the seat beside her. “Because I know that I will marry you no matter what they say. No one can stop me from having my forever with you.” He spoke as he fastened her seatbelt.Janine po

Porter and Janine stared at each other. Janine felt like her whole world is going down the drain the moment she heard what Serge said.It’s the end. It’s going to end now.That was all she could think of. Although she knows that Porter isn’t going to raise the white flag, she’s still so scared that she’d lose him now. Hell, she couldn’t lose him now or she’s going to die.Porter laced his fingers with hers and stood up. “Come on. Let’s face them.” He told her calmly. There was no trace of anxiety in his voice.Janine stared at him. “Porter, what if they disapprove our relationship?” It was not a new question and L has answered and assured her a thousand times that she’ll always be his choice. There’s no one else.Porter sighed and faced her, cupping her cheeks. “Listen, Janine. I’m not going to repeat this ever again.” He began. “I know you&r

Janine and Porter walked to the dining room after preparing. Well, Porter doesn’t really mind but Janine’s really nervous. What if his friends won’t approve them? Is this going to be another obstacle?Janine held onto Porter’s hand tightly as they approached his friends.Porter looked at her, worried. “Don’t worry. My friends won’t eat you.” He whispered, trying to reassure her.Janine nodded but still feels uneasy. She doesn’t know what to think about their relationship if even his friends won’t approve their relationship.“Come on.” Porter led her to the dining table where the six men were waiting for them.Janine looked at all of them and saw Serge smiling widely at her. “Uhm…” She wanted to greet but she doesn’t know how they’d want her to greet them.“Take your seat, Janine.” Serge pointed at the chair beside Porter’s

“What would your parents think of me? Of us?” Janine asked Porter as they were watching movies on the living room of his condominium unit.She loves Porter so much and she knows that it would be hard for them to be approved by their parents. Her parents know that she’s with Johann. And Johann is Porter’s cousin. What would they think of her? She’s worried of everything others would think of her, of Porter.Porter looked at her with a raised brow. “They don’t matter at all, Janine. I don’t like them meddling with my personal life anyway.” He replied as he planted a kiss on her ear. “If they won’t approve us, then we won’t insist. I can fund you and our children just fine.” He smiled as he wrapped his arm around her, pulling her closer to him.Janine gulped at how advanced Porter is already thinking. He’s already thinking of building a family with her. That’s one thing. He&rs

Janine’s heart was racing up until Porter had finally driven them away from the location. She doesn’t even have an idea on how she escaped the occasion.It wasn’t really easy for her to finally make up her mind and choose one from them. Like everyone else, she didn’t want to hurt one when she knew they both loved her so much, only under different circumstances.Johann was the best thing that happened in her life. He was the person who made her see the light in love. He was the person who opened her heart to love.But Porter. He was the one who made her heart race faster and slower at the same time. He was the person who made her feel like she was always the priority – that he would give up everything just to be with her.If only there was something she could do to not hurt anyone, she would’ve done it. But is there really a way to not make a certain goodbye painful?“You’re still trembling.” Por
