Love And Death

CHAPTER: 9

Mrs. Choi sighed and started to speak, "young lady you passed out, and then Minho brought you home, he woke me up when he bought you back, he put you on the bed and I cleaned you and you slept like a baby" she let out a small chuckle under her breath. "Passed out"? He brought me home! When, how from where"? Jin Ah gasped as she heard this.

Mrs. Choi continued to speak in low tone, "you had so much alcohol and you passed out".... She heisted. Jin Ah nodded her to continue with her eyes fully focused on her. She inhaled, "in front of your parent's grave". Jin Ah looked at her as if she had seen a ghost, "what.... I went there"? She gasped. Her mouth opened and her lips turned dry, she griped the sheet underneath her for support. Mrs. Choi nodded with a small smile.

It hit it her like lighting, her disease she thought, "what if I said something under the influence"? "Mrs. Choi"! She yelped her hands on her shoulders almost pushing her back. "Did I say something when I was drunk"? She asked with her eyes popped out in shock and her breathing stuck in her throat. "Young lady"! Mrs. Choi gasped, "What are you saying? You were asleep when you got home" she explained.

She sighed with relief and sat back with her hands coming slowly down from her shoulders. Mrs. Choi looked at her tiled her head, "why young lady was there something you shouldn't have said"? She asked skeptically.

Jin Ah who was passing her fingers through her hair stopped mind way, her jaw twitched and her eyes pulled back, "no, no! There was nothing" she added while laughing nervously. Mrs. Choi just nodded and clapped her hands, "now come down have some hangover soup it will help with your pain and stiffness". Jin Ah nodded while looking down, And Mrs. Choi She left the room.

Jin Ah sighed while passing her fingers through her hair and then messaged her eyes. She was relief she didn't say anything stupid. She got up and went towards the bathroom and stood underneath the shower and opened it. The hot water fell down on her body she exhaled and let her body absorbs the heat it helped her with the stiffness.

After she was done she put on an oversized black pullover paired it with grey sweatpants as it was a day off and sat in front of the mirror. She moved her neck and massaged it. Then she looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes were still a little puffy. "Did I cry"? She thought to herself as she traced her eyes with her fingers gently.

Then she saw it the paleness in her skin, even with the cream her skin looked dull and her lips were black and groaned at the sight. She remembered what Dr. Knag told her that her skin will start lose its color as the time was near. She juts just smiled with one corner of her lip, "you poor soul hang in there" she said aloud.

She did a little makeup not that visible just she could hide the dullness. When she was done she made her way downstairs. She saw him as he was setting the table as usual. "What if I said something to him? What if I wasn't asleep on the way? What I told him about the tumor"?

She thought to herself while standing there, her eyes moving fast and her mind doing laps, she griped the railing tightly because her legs were numb. All she could think was "does he know"? What if he told Mrs. Choi? She wanted to run away from there, that when Minho called her.

"Miss Jin Ah Are you okay"? He asked. She looked at him as she saw his eyes she calmed down a little and breathed. His voice also made Mrs. Choi look at her. She also came closer to see her.

Jin Ah straightened herself and went down stairs, "I am fine" she said as she passed him. Her eyes downward and her arms squeezed.

Minho and Mrs. Choi both gave each other a look as they saw her sit on the table. It was quite till Minho set the food on the table. Jin Ah was so preoccupied with her mind that she didn't even notice when he put the soup in front of her.
