2024-10-29 19:42:56“I won’t be back for a couple of months.” He pulled me closer because I can’t find my own voice. I know that if I’m going to talk, I will cry again.
He brushed his lips onto mine and I kissed him back. I hate this feeling. I hate it that he’s leaving me now. “Jeonghan…”The tears just fell from my eyes and I couldn’t control it anymore. “Babe, please stop crying.”
“Let’s go Jeonghan!” I heard Cheol called him.
“He kissed me one more time before pulling away from my arms. Tears continuously falling down from my eyes when he started to walk backwards.
His eyes never left mine and when he finally turn around, “Jeonghan!” I shouted for his name and run towards him. He opened his arms and I flung onto him sobbing.
“I love you babe, I love you so much! Please wait for me, okay? I love you… I love you so much!&rd

JEONGHAN’S POV I was taking a shower when I heard my phone rings from the outside. I know it was Yoo-mi because I have set a ringtone for her. Oh god, I miss her so much! I was planning to take a vacation this coming weekend to see her. I hurriedly wiped my wet body with a clean towel when I heard my phone stops from ringing. And when I walked out of the bathroom, I saw Ari, Wonwoo’s girlfriend puts down my phone on top of my bed. Did she answer the call for me? As soon as Ari left our dorm, I confronted Wonwoo. “Hey Wonwoo!” “What?” “Can you tell your girlfriend not to fucking answer someone’s call?!” I told him as I climb on top of my bed. It was a double-decked bed and it was my choice to be at the upper part. “Your phone is disturbing us! It doesn’t stop from ringing!” Wonwoo answered. “So my phone disturbs you now? I wasn’t even

“Hey Suzy, is that you? Come here I’ll give you a drink.” The man approached me and I instantly recognized him as the person I talked on the phone. He introduced himself as Mike. “Hey Jeonghan bro, give me the damn vodka! I need to make my new friend here a drink!” Jeonghan turned to me and that foreign smile he’s wearing instantly wiped away. His eyes follow down my arm and takes the sight of Mike’s hand over mine and I flinch it away. “What--What are you doing here?” he fumbles the words. “You two know each other?” Mike asked. No one answered him. Jeonghan staring at me like I’m a ghost, like I’m an already forgotten memory that he never expected to revisit. “I’ll take that as a yes.” Mike laughs and pulls the bottle of liquor from Jeonghan’s hand. “So Jeonghan, I thought you’re single?" “Of course I am!

Mom never told me. And now he’s coming back like nothing happened?“I’m sorry son but I was a coward at that time. I love your mom and I’ll do anything to win her back.” He explained to me that my grandfather doesn’t want mom to be with their family. They don't like my mother because she was just a simple woman while their family is one of the richest clan in Seoul.“Why only now dad?” I asked him. I am totally annoyed why he’s only showing up now. Mom has been sacrificing her life for years. For us to live. “Do you know that mom works more than her working shift?

She was only wearing a bra and a short shorts. “Give me your shirt.” She turned to me.I shook my head denying her. “Ow, c’mon, my brother is in the other room. I don’t want him to see me naked.

AFTER 6 YEARS As I walked my way towards the table he’s sitting, he was there waiting. He was meeting me at my favorite little café to grab a coffee after my work in the office. “Hi babe, sorry for making you wait.” I smiled at him as I approached the table he was sitting. “It’s okay babe, how’s work?” Josh kissed me on the cheek and pulled a chair for me to sit. “Mr. Yoon is still confined in the hospital. I don’t know what will happen to our company if he’ll be gone.” I’ve been Mr. Yoon’s personal assistant for more than a year now and I took care of everything for him. He got into a car accident last weekend and he was on life support. “Okay, let’s just hope he’ll be fine.” Josh told me as he took a sip on his coffee.

I hurriedly hopped out from the bus and sped up to 17 GLOBAL and Industries at central avenue in Seoul, hoping not to be late. As I walked out of the elevator, I saw my fellow colleague Lia. She was rushing around looking busy. “Good morning Lia!” I greeted her as I entered my own office. “Oh, great you’re here!” she exclaimed, looking worried. “Any problem?” I asked her. “Mr. Yoon has just arrived and he’s looking for you. He asked me to make him a coffee since you haven’t arrived yet but it seems like he doesn’t like it. He said he’ll just wait for you to arrive.” “Oh.. I’m glad he’s okay now.” “Oh my god, no!

I walked inside the house and I saw mom watching television in the living room. Honey probably in school right now accompanied by grandma. “Hey mom!” I leaned over and kiss her on the cheek and sit beside her.“Yoo- mi? Aren’t you supposed to be working right now?” she asked.“Mom, I just quit from my job.”“What?”“I’m so sorry, I’ll just get another job or I’ll ask Josh to hire me in his company. He has been asking me to work with him and I think this is the right time.” I said as I walked to the kitchen to grab something to drink.“Wait, wait! I don’t understand. Why did you quit in the first place? I thought you love your work with Mr. Yoon?” mom said as she followed me.I poured an orange juice in the glass and drink before I speak. “Mr. Yoon has been in the hospital for 3 days now.

I closed my mouth tightly when his tongue playfully teasing my lips. No way I’m gonna let this asshole kiss me. Never again! “I miss you babe.” He whispered huskily and he captured my lips. I moved my face away from him but he held it with his big hands. I was losing it. He was so damn irresistible. His minty breath and lemony scent brought me back to the time that he used to climb on my window and jump inside my room. I gasped when I felt his warm hand squeezed my ass and he took that opportunity to shove his tongue inside my mouth. I moaned involuntarily when he started touching my breast. Oh shit! I feel so hot, very very hot that I couldn’t control myself anymore. I grabbed his neck pulling him closer and brushed my fingers through his hair. I’d been subconsciously dying to do it since we had met again for the first time 6 years ago. Throwing my inhibitions away, I responded to his hot kiss fervently. He t

YOO-MI's POVMom and Mr. Yoon was standing on both of my sides while we walked at the top of the mountain. Who gave Jeonghan the idea to celebrate our wedding here? But I wasn't complaining though, it was unique and breathtakingly beautiful. The crystal blue sky was clear as the sun sets in the background, coloring everything on the horizon ombre with a mix of tangerine.The walkway was cleared of snow, hundreds of tiny candles lining the green path. I felt tears instantly sprang to my eyes as I stopped walking, placing my hand on my chest.'Are you alright, sweetheart?" mom asked in a panic.I took a deep breath and sighed. 'It's beautiful mom, I want to remember everything."Mr. Yoon chuckle reverberated in his chest as I adjusted the white faux fur wrap draped over my shoulders. 'It was all my son's ideas."I smiled at him and I felt mom touched my hair, sliding a tendril of curled brown hair off my shoulder and gave me a watery smile. 'You look so beautiful."I stopped myself from

JEONGHAN'S POVAFTER FIVE MONTHSI was standing in the living room of Yoo-Mi's house, and like a déjà vu, I went here to talk to her mother again. Like I did three years ago, when I promised to marry her. I haven't proposed to her yet. I wanted to tell her mother first but this time, I am serious, I am 101 percent sure, confident, positive that I want to spend the rest of my life with Yoo-Mi, with Honey and Hansol.'I give you my blessing, Jeonghan." Mom said. 'I give all my trust in you, my son." And she pulled me in a sweet warm hug.'Mom, after the wedding, I want you to stay with us in the mansion. I want you to stop working in the hospital and look for the coffee shop I built for you." I told her as I kissed her forehead.She nodded and burst out crying. Her shoulders shaking while hugging me.'This is what Yoo-Mi and I wanted, because you've been working your whole life for Yoo-Mi and this time, I want to return the favour. I want to return everything good you did for Yoo-Mi and
MY CRUSH, MY NEIGHBOR CHAPTER 213
YOO-MI's POVMy eyes were sticky, crusty, and glued shut as I shifted uncomfortably on a flat, lumpy mattress and heard the distant sound of a monitor beeping. There was something on my arm. Something stiff and unbending. I tugged at the arm, felt something cool, like a tube along my fingers. Then, the distinct feeling of someone lacing their fingers with mine. I swallowed harshly.I tried to call for Jeonghan, tried to force myself to speak, tried to pry my eyes open but everything hurts. Especially my head. It was pounding in rhythm with the glaring noise in the room but then I heard someone said. 'Push Yoo-Mi!" What?Slowly, I worked to open my eyes and a tiny sliver of bright light, white, sterile. I'm in the hospital. 'Push Yoo-Mi!" and I'm giving birth! Oh god! But I'm only seven months pregnant!I knew I should be worried about the hazy, pulsating thuds ricocheting through my head, making it hard to see clearly, but all I could think about was the baby.I looked over at my righ

YOO-MI's POVIt's a fire!Scarface was going to burn this whole place down! He's going to burn us alive! No!I quickly rose onto my knees and told mom we need to get outside as quickly and quietly as possible. That we needed to work together to get out of here before the fire spread.'Stay low, baby." I instructed Honey but she's too weak to move. 'Baby, can you hear me?" I asked and she's not replying. I held her arm ready to carry her but mom stopped me.'I'll take her." she said, feeling the tension and worry oozing out of her body as mom's body shook beside me.'Mom…" I protested.'I can do it, Yoo-Mi. Go take the lead. Save yourself for your babies, sweetheart." She said and she lifted Honey up, carrying her, shielding her body from the fire, from the windows crashing, from Scarface.I let out a string of curses as I tried to push through the front door. I saw a hard metal on the ground and I didn't think twice to pick it and slammed it into the door but it was stuck. Something f

YOO-MI's POVAll I could feel was fear. It was an icy, prickly and terrorizing feeling that settled in my chest, in my blood, and in my bones. It made me hard to breathe, hard to think and hard to move. It was so hard to do anything other than slowly blinked as everything slowed down. Time slowed down, movements slowed down, my heart beating rapidly in my ears slowed down. No…no, no!'Mommy!" I heard Honey again shouted.And everything returned all at once. We're under the table, hiding. Mom's quietly sobbing while Honey's inside her arms. I felt cold hands on my cheeks and Jeonghan's dark brown eyes came into view. 'Babe, are you okay?"I nodded as I felt Honey's tiny hands hugged me. The scuffing noise of chairs against the floor, confused voices, Honey's whimpers, my heart pumping in my chest, everything echoed in my head.'Babe, I need you to call 911. Tell them we lost power and there's possibly an intruder." He was kneeled in front of me, his eyes begging me to listen to him, to

YOO-MI's POVJeonghan's pacing in the driveway, his hands inside his pockets. Mom was sitting at the porch area, Honey on her lap. Josh took me back home because that was what Jeonghan ordered after we called him and he too, left his meeting. The two police officers took Jackson to the police station.The convenience store owner told me to take the items free of charge when I tried to pay for them. But Josh paid for it, anyway. My limbs felt heavy and slow as I forced myself out of the car and into Jeonghan's waiting arms. His heart was beating practically as I laid my head against his chest.'I'm fine. Jeonghan." I reassure him.'No, you're not." he shook his head with a shaky breath.He pulled away but his arms still wrapped around my shoulder. 'Mom…"Mom cried and pulled me in a tight hug, pulling me away from Jeonghan. Honey brushed my hair with her little hands soothing me. 'You scared us, Yoo-Mi." mom said.'I had Josh with me." I weakly responded as mom arms let me go.'It's no

YOO-MI's POVJosh helped me climb into his car before he walked around and settled himself in the driver's seat and started the engine. It was officially the first day of fall and the cold mountain air means the first snow should arrive any day now.We let the car warm up as I laid my head back, taking deep breaths. The fresh air eased me as I took in deep gulps, let it filled my chest, exhaled through my nose.I took a look on the side mirror and an unmarked police car was ready to follow us, guard us. I liked knowing they were closed by, but I hate remembering why.'Does that Dr. Alison knew you have an appointment today?" Josh interrupted my thoughts and I shook my head. 'What?"'My appointment was supposedly yesterday, but I forgot about it. Can you call her for me, Josh? I'm still feeling dizzy." I told him as I pulled out my phone inside my bag and handed it to him after unlocking it with my finger's sensor. 'You haven't met her yet?"'Not yet."Yeah, I remembered the other day,
MY CRUSH, MY NEIGHBOR CHAPTER 208
YOO-MI's POVMy teeth sank into my lower lip as I tried to keep from moaning. My hands found Jeonghan's arm on both sides of me on the bed supporting his weight, careful not to crush me. And I ran my fingers through his silky locks, yanked at the ends when he hit that spot. The one that made me see stars and sparks, made my body shudder and spasm.'Jeonghan…" I moaned. 'We should…" I breathed heavily. 'Stop."But he didn't. "I can't, babe." He said panting, and pounding into me, slowly and deeply. This was okay. Dr. Alison said we should do it because sex released prostaglandins, hormone-like substances that are like the medications used to induce labor.I touched his face and I let out a throaty gasp, then a laugh before remembering we're not in the house alone.'Josh," I clenched my teeth as I cupped Jeonghan's face. 'Is in the other room."Jeonghan smirked at me. 'You better be quiet then."His action became faster and I reached for a pillow and clamped it over my head, hoping Josh
MY CRUSH, MY NEIGHBOR CHAPTER 207
JEONGHAN's POVI sat in the driveway inside my car staring at Yoo-Mi's house as I felt my heart heavy in my chest. I had plans, so many plans. Big plans for her, for Honey, for our family.Propose to her…Marry her…Move in with her…Build a family with her…Now, I have to tell her we have to wait a little longer. That is, if she still wants me.Slowly, I opened the car door and grabbed the cup of hot chocolate I picked up for her. The walk I was taking was slow. The cool September breeze was slow. The chirping sound made by a bird close by was slow. My heart rate was slow. Everything felt like it's in slow motion, even my hand reaching to turn the door handle.The house was eerily silent as I padded down the hallway upstairs careful not to make too much noise. Yoo-Mi's not in her room and Josh's door was closed, the muffled sounds of his snores seeping through the wood. I took a peek inside his room and his mouth was slightly opened from snoring, his arms wrapped around Honey, her fa
