YOO-MI's POV

I couldn't sleep. My bed was lumpy and uncomfortable as I tossed and turned, trying to find a relaxing position. I snuggled closer to Honey, inhaling her sweet-smelled hair.

Josh brought someone back tonight and it was loud and…hurtful. I grabbed my pillow and covered my ears, as my hands covered Honey's, so she wouldn't hear the creaking headboard and the moans leaving his closed guest bedroom door.

I was just thankful mom's got out for work before Josh arrived. But I thought, he woudn't do this if he knew mom was just in the other room.

I couldn't help to stop the tears that was swimming in my eyes. There were mostly angry tears. Why would he do this? That he would be so reckless and vindictive. Especially when all I was doing was trying to help. But I didn't know how much longer I'd be willing to. Not after last night.

Deciding sleep was futile, I walked down silently to the kitchen and started to make hot chocolate. It's roar to life was a painful reminder that even t

Honey was now in the living room, watching her favorite Peppa Pig show.'Yoo-Mi," he tried again. 'I shouldn't have drink last night. I shouldn't have brought anyone here. I don't know why I did that."I stopped my fingers from typing on the keyboard and rubbed a hand over my face, exhausted from lack of sleep.'Yoo-Mi," he said again. This time, I could hear the pleading in his voice. 'I'm sorry. I fucked up. I..I just thought about staying with you and having Jeonghan coming back. I don't know if I can..if I can handle it while he's here. With you."'I wouldn't do that." I started as I looked over at him. 'I would never make you feel as uncomfortable as you made me feel last night."He nodded his head and licked his lips. 'I'm just…"'An asswipe?"'No."'Then what are you?"

But I didn't pay them attention because I was desperate to see his headlights pulling into the driveway.Two days without him was too long. It's too damn long.The moment he arrived, I took off running. He hopped out of his car as I launched towards him, my arms circling his neck before he had a chance to react.I held onto him as tight as I could, my heart beating restlessly against his. Home. He came home to me.Jeonghan's arm wrapped around me as he pulled me even closer, burying his face into the crook of my neck.'I missed you so much." I told him as I breathed in his expensive cologne.He lifted me up and I wrapped my legs around his slim waist.

    JOSH's POVThe ball hit the ground before bouncing back up at me. I gripped it in my hands, bent my knees and shoot it towards the basket.It soared through the air and hit the rim, fell to the ground without ever touching the net.I missed.I always miss.I've been trying to learn how to play this fucking game but I didn't know why I couldn't master it.I dribbled the ball a few more times and took another shot.Another miss.I brought a girl back to Yoo-Mi's place and fucked her. Probably the lowest point of my life. Everything was just too much. But that girl couldn't get off my mind. I didn't even get her name. And she didn't tell me that she was a fucking virgin.It sounded insane to me but I realized it wasn't just sex with her. There was a level of intimacy I never experienced with any other woman, even with Yoo-Mi.I couldn't forget how the way she arched her back whenever she was near, the way she always tried to clamp her legs together if it weren't for me holding them down.

    JOSH's POVThe house was empty when I entered inside Yoo-Mi's house. It's quiet, too quiet. Yoo-Mi and Honey went out to grab some groceries. They've been into cooking lately and Honey's so eager to learn to cook my favorite foods. Isn't that sweet of my daughter? I smiled remembering the last time she cooked pancakes for me.I walked over to the fridge and stared at the picture on it, held up by a magnet that said Great! It was a picture of Yoo-Mi and me. Maybe we were 17. Wearing matching black shirts her mom brought for us. I don't know where she got that image from, but I knew it was the time when we were still the best of friends, and I already had a hidden feeling for her, but she's head over heels in love with Jeonghan.But I was glad the picture still in existence. Glad it's still here. Proof that we used to be the best of friends.I swallowed hard and grabbed my keys off the counter. Drinking alone in this empty house seemed a lot less appealing than drinking alone in a crowd

I was always emotional about being away from Jeonghan. I just spent a whole week with him.I had gotten used to it, though.Being with him again.He's back in his dad's company, and his house was nearer in the building than my house. Sometimes, he comes home to me, sometimes he's not. Sometimes we'll go to his house with a one-hour drive and stayed in his bed the following morning.When he's driving me home, I was trying not to cry the whole ride home seated beside him, his hand securely tucked in mine, my head resting on his shoulder.He couldn't stay the night with me because he had an early meeting the next day he couldn't miss. So, he kissed me goodbye in the kitchen, told me repeatedly how much he loved me.

After the weird encounter with the stranger at the grocery store, I haven't wanted to be alone.Josh was waiting in front of the house and as soon as I turned off the engine, he opened the door to Honey's side and carried her out. I shoved the things under my arm and walked to the front door.Josh followed behind and he walked upstairs to bring Honey in their bedroom who fell asleep to our way home, while I walked into the kitchen and put down all the bags on the table and I felt my knees weakened when I remember what happened.'Yoo-Mi," Josh called out. 'Are you okay?"I shook my head and suddenly the tear slipped down on my face. He pulled me closer and I sobbed on his shoulder.'Sshh…," he whispered as he caressed my back. 'It's okay, Yoo-Mi. I got you." his arms sliding around to hold me in a tight embrace.When I felt I was relaxe

    YOO-MI's POVMy hand found Jeonghan's hard, bare chest as he continued to sweetly assault every nerve ending in my body. I need to feel more.I slowly moved my palm down his long torso until I reached the noticeable bulge in his swim trunks. He groaned in my ear as I palm him, squeezing him in my warm hand. He's hard and thick and always ready.'Yoo-Mi," he moaned. 'We can't do it here."'Guess we should stop then." I said as I pulled away from him and stood up, took a few steps back. I didn't know if I trusted myself to stop if this goes any further. Especially when he's looking at me like I'm his whole damn world.'You forgot this." Jeonghan winked as he held up my bikini top with his fingers.I shook my head. 'No, I didn't." I smiled, teasing him.I started heading towards the lake, needing to cool off my body because I started to feel hot, so hot, when I heard him call after me again.

    YOO-MI's POVThe moment I looked at Jeonghan, I knew I've lost all sane thought because I said, 'I need you inside me right now."There was no hesitation as he slowly lifted my hips, and rubbed himself against my core.He started slow, pushing the tip of his head inside, inch by inch, until I felt his heavy sac slap against my butt. He pulled out, then slowly moved back in, each time his hands digging deeper into my hips.I spread my legs wider, begging him for more. Faster, harder, stronger. But he didn't increase his speed, didn't give me what I want. He kept a steady pace as I raised my hips, silently asking him to give me more.When he didn't, I let out a frustrated grunt. 'Jeonghan, I need more please."He smirked as he readjusted, pushed off his legs and kneeled in front of me. 'Beg for it, babe. I want to hear you beg."I felt my core ached at his words. 'You're not doing this to a preggy me!" I complained and he laughed before kissing my forehead.'Fuck, babe." He groaned as h

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

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

    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

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

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

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,

    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

    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
