UNSEEN (Male Version)

Chapter 4

People said that you should separate your feeling and professionalism. And that was true, I always do that not until I found my woman laying helplessly on the hospital bed. The woman that was also my company's rival. Sometimes, the world loves playing with human hearts. If there were a part of the world that promised someone there wouldn't be any pain or desperation in love life, I would definitely the first person who will be living there. Living with the woman I loved.

'Tsk, My woman?'

Even the woman I loved, betrayed me. I puffed my cigarette with a smirk while the smoke filled the dark of my workroom. My hand busily moved the mouse on the pad while leaning my back against the chair comfortably. I pulled the cigarette with my left hand still trying to find the footage of that day. The day before I met her in a hospital. The woman that suddenly I felt familiar with.The woman who caught my interest in the hospital. Especially, she was expected to be close with Chaeyoon, my woman.

'Funny, Jisung-ah!'

Puffing the last cigarette deeply, I pushed the cigarette on the ashtray. I clicked the newest footage and it started playing. Looking at the footage carefully, my eyes suddenly caught a part of a car being parked outside. My corner lips tugged into a smirk. The person who parked the car obviously knew that there were CCTVs in my house. Strangely, the car didn't budge even a second. The person inside the car also didn't get off and stay in the car for a long time not until Taemu's car was coming. The owner of the car suddenly made a move when Taemu opened the gate. I frowned my eyes to get a clearer view through the darkness.

'A woman?'

I saw the woman was freezing when Taemu was busily opening the gate and coming back to drive the car. My eyes stuck at that woman until she fully showed herself. I glued my eyes to the monitor. The sudden appearance that I didn't know how to react when I never imagined she was there that night. That night that I was sure still in a big mess. I remembered the invoice and I would never do that crazy thing with a big amount of money if I wasn't that dead drunk.

Gluing to the monitor, I saw the commotion started to take control. I found myself dragging a woman from the car harshly. Doubting myself about the woman, I fell on the back chair while massaging my temples frustratedly. I was scared to see myself until I saw Chaeyoon was being dragged forcefully under my embrace to be the substitute of the woman I treated harshly before. And I forcefully kissed her until I locked her with me in the house. She was forced to maintain my drunken state and she didn't come out that fast from my house.

Gulping my throat uneasily when I remembered dirt of blood on my bed after that. I looked at the footage for a long and I just watched Taemu and that woman whom I saw in the hospital still there waiting for Chaeyoon in worry. If I were them, I would also do the same.

I bit my lower lip anticipating what would happen next while putting my elbows on the table and cupping my mouth in the hope I didn't do any mistakes. Frowning my eyes to the monitor and I tried to fast-forwarding the footage. Pausing to the part when Chaeyoon came out from my house, I clicked backward before I focused to watch the whole footage in more detail.

She was holding her stomach tightly while trying to go for help with her wobbly steps. Exhaling my breath in worry, I stared at Taemu and the woman were running to help her. Sighing in disbelief I closed the video and grabbed my hair tightly.

"What have I done?"

*****((()))*****

I looked at the appearance of my secretary who was standing in front of me. After fixing his glasses and tie, he greeted me with his warm smile acting like nothing happened which bothered me more. Clicking my pen on the table while moving the chair with my shoes, I hesitated in asking him about the incident that I just found out about last night.
