YOO-MI’s POV
I whimpered, tears rolling down my cheeks as I felt Josh's warm embrace wrapped around my body. He’s crying too, I could feel it the way his shoulders shook.
“Josh?” I whispered and he pulled me closer. I closed my eyes and another tear fell on my cheek. This was all too painful to me, seeing him betray me made me want to slap him hard across his face.How did he do this to me? All I did was love him as my best friend. I never thought he could do something like this, to kidnap and let me abuse by a stranger. I gave all my trust and love to him that even Honey loved him like her own father.I shook my head slowly as I remembered my daughter and my eyes suddenly darted on Brittany and she was watching us murderously. “Josh!” she called out. “Get away from her!”“No!”“Get the fuck away from her, or she’ll die!” Brittany pointed the gun at my temple and I squeezedYOO-MI’s POVI groaned softly as I felt my head and muscles ache. My eyes flickered, trying to open my eyes but the blinding light made me wince.“Yoo-Mi?”Slowly I opened my eyes again and I saw white and nothing else. But then my vision gradually became clearer.It’s a white ceiling.My gaze traveled around the surrounding, rays of sunlight coming through the window. I’m in a hospital room.My eyes widened when I remember what happened. I clutched my head hoping the pain would recede.“Josh!” I screamed, the heart monitor began to beep faster.“Babe,” Jeonghan’s hoarse voice made me turn my head, and I found him sitting beside my bed, staring at me with teary eyes. He came closer and pressed his lips into mine “You’re awake.” He broke into a smile. “How are you feeling?” he asked after pulling away from the hug.I’m still trying to absorb wha
YOO-MI’S POVThe next morning, I was back inside Josh’s room and Jeonghan was out to grab some food at the hospital’s cafeteria. As I glued myself onto the chair beside Josh’s bed, Yeri’s eyes glued at me too but I didn’t look on her way even once.I only want to be with Josh and it’s like that I couldn’t be away from him even just for a moment.I held Josh’s hand in mine, caressing it. “Josh,” I whispered. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry that you were hurt because of me, that you would have to go through all of this saving me.”I heard Yeri scoff but I ignored her. I watched Josh sleeping, his chest heaving up and down in a steady rhythm.Then I felt a small movement inside my hand and my heart thudded. Josh's eyes furrowed, and I immediately leaned closer to him.Yeri ran towards us and stopped at the other side of the bed, leaned closer to Josh too, her eyes glared at me.
YOO-MI’s POVI was waiting for Jeonghan in Josh’s room while Yeri went out to buy coffee. As soon as I heard the door open, I immediately turned around and was disappointed to see Yeri enter inside.“Yeri, did you see Jeonghan?” I asked her and she shook her head sadly.Where are you Jeonghan? I glanced at my wristwatch and realized he's been away for two hours already. Suddenly I got worried, thinking that something happened to him, but quickly whisked the dreadful thought and borrowed Yeri’s phone to send him a text message.I waited for five minutes but he didn’t reply. “Yeri, can I call him?” I asked and she nodded with a smile.“Sure.”I dialed his number but his voice mail answered it. Once again, I waited for another couple of minutes and almost dropped the phone when I heard the message tone, however, relief crossed my face when I saw that the text message came from him.Though it
JEONGHAN’S POV“Babe, I’ll just grab us some food. What do you want to eat?” I asked Yoo-Mi as she leaned her head on the headboard, my hands holding hers.“I don’t want anything Jeonghan.” She answered softly and I instantly got worried. She hasn’t been eating anything ever since she was brought here to the hospital.“You have to eat, or you’ll get weak.” I convinced her, she seemed indisposed.“Okay, just get anything you want.”I dropped a hurried kiss on her forehead and walked towards the door. “I’ll be right back.”“Jeonghan—“ she called out. “Can you accompany me to Josh’s room? I want to see him.”Josh again. I was very grateful that Josh saved Yoo-Mi, but the fact that she always thinks about him and didn’t want to leave his side makes my heart ripped with jealousy. I hate it! I hate it that she’s
JEONGHAN’S POVI pulled up in front of the Seoul police station and was about to climb down the car when my phone rings again. I had declined all Cheol’s calls because I knew he’s with Yoo-Mi but it was now dad who was calling me.“Dad?” I picked up his call.“Jeonghan where are you?” his voice is dangerously calm but I don’t give a fuck.“Out. If Yoo-Mi called you, tell her we had emergency errands to run in the office.”“What? But I am here in her room right now! Where are you?” he shouted, his voice was hoarse.“I don’t care, dad! Just tell her anything!” I shouted back, frustrated.“Jeonghan!”“Okay fine, I’m here in Seoul police station. I’m going to talk to Brittany.” I heaved a sigh. “Call you later dad. Bye!”“Jeonghan, don’t hang up on me! Jeonghan!”...
JEONGHAN’S POVI stayed inside my car crying my heart out. I let out a deep breath and exhaled heavily letting out the dread, the emotion, the uncertainty, and confusion.I’m numb but on fire. I’m in shock but I’m lucid.Yoo-Mi is mine! She’s mine! She’s mine!I reached for my phone when it went off. I quickly grabbed it from the stand, hating the loud noise it made. I looked at the display and I sighed when I saw it was my mom who was calling me.I cleared my throat and swallowed the lump in my throat before I speak. “What do you want mom?”“Is that how you greet your own mother Jeonghan?” she asked and I felt irritated with her voice. “I’ve been spamming you with texts for over an hour!” she practically yelled through my phone causing me to roll my eyes.“I haven’t been using my phone for the last few hours. What is it that you want this time?” I asked
JEONGHAN’S POV“You what?!” I shouted. My heart is pounding out of my chest as I gripped the cup of tea in my fist and sat down on the chair, my breath is panting out in gasps like I’ve just run twenty laps up and down the block.She flinched. “I’m sorry Jeonghan, I did that because I don’t want that girl for you!”I breathe in and breathe out. I stared at the woman in front of me with burning rage. She was still crying, head bowed down.I pulled out my phone in my pocket and pressed something before putting it back inside. “And you want that criminal for me! Huh, mom?! What kind of mother are you! Why did you order Brittany to kidnap the woman I love!”I stood up and knocked the box of plants in front of her making them crash to the ground. Her face turned pale, her eyes widened. I know how she loved these plants so much but this is the only way I could do to tell her how much I hate her.For
YOO-MI’s POV“What did he say?” I asked Cheol as soon as he got back from answering his phone. I knew it was Jeonghan, I overheard it even though he tried to lower his voice.“He’s…uh--- Jeonghan has something to do..in the office. Yes—he’s in the office right now.“ he stuttered.I can’t help but frown as Cheol tried to lie to me. He’s a bar top notcher lawyer who tends to be investigative, which means that they are quite inquisitive and curious people that often like to spend time alone with their thoughts. Lawyers are smart people who can construct a sentence or paragraph in one seat. That was what I thought but watching Cheol right now makes me want to change my perspective about them.“Get out Cheol,” I said softly.“What? But I—““I said get out! I want to be alone!” I screamed but he stayed still, he looked at me pitifully.“No Y
