Wrapping my hand around the glass, I clench on it as liquid flow down my throat. The sweet and nutty taste of the malt, kept me awake in this hollow evening. My tongue swirl around my mouth tasting the residue of the alcohol. Jazz music plays on the background but my ear shut them off. I was in thought, with one name that fill my head.
Lee Suho.
I finally got what I wanted, a chance to be with Suho. He wanted to feel love. Wanting to feel special. But the rejection made him a three leaf clover. A non-special man who brought disaster to my life.
Sipping on the drink, a chair next to me was pulled.
"What a coincidence isn't it?" He spoke, his voice resonated around the room as I stay silent. The pendant light shimmer above us causing me to glance at my reflection on the table. A look of exhaustion written on my face. I never had a good night sleep ever since he's gone. Now that he came back, I still couldn't.
There's still something missing.
"It isn't like you drinking on Monday night." Jung-Hyung continues as he orders a glass of whisky. I smiled at how bad my addition toward alcohol is.
"It doesn't hurt drinking on some days." Glancing from the corner of my eyes, Jung-Hyung sat on his chair with ease. He was wearing a black and white suit. Something that he wore every day. His prominent sharp jaw was a definite look and tall nose was something you can't miss.
"I'm guessing the guy from a few days ago was the caused?" He said sarcastically. Jung-Hyung glance at me and waited for my answer.
"How do you forgive someone who broke their promises?" The question has been unsettling to my heart. Throughout high school Suho has promised me a few things. But none of them came true.
"Forgiving only comes when bitterness dissolved. You must have an open mind to fully accept things." It was unlike of Jung-Hyung speaking wisely like this.
It must have taken a lot of time for Jung-Hyung to forgive the drunk driver that killed his girlfriend. When I first met him, his humanity was shut off. He was cold and cruel to everyone. But when time went by, his emotion came back.
"You know if modeling doesn't work. Being a therapist could be an option." He laughs knowing I was finally over pulling the sad look. Clinking our glass together we enjoy our night together.
Before ending the day, I have one last destination to visit. With a hazy mind and a staggering leg, I finally made it to his apartment. Knocking on it I saw him swinging the door surprised to see me.
"Good that you came here. I wanted to ask you what you said to Joo-Kyung." I rolled my eyes as the first thing he asked is that rabbit.
"Its a female talk. You wouldn't get it." It was a headache to mention her name.
"Chae-Rin please tell me. She was crying and it hurts my heart."
"Do you ever feel like maybe you're a rebound to her? How she dated you because Suho left? Has that never gone through your mind?" I was questioning his sanity, whether he knows what he was to Joo-Kyung.
"I know. I asked her to use me so that she'll forget him. You wouldn't know a thing, because you start hanging out with other man." Seo-Joon mentioned Jung-Hyung into our conversation. It was true that I couldn't give my love to Seo-Joon. Therefore, I dissociate myself from him. Just like how Suho did to us.
But my reason was valid. To get rid of one feeling we must draw a bridge. Seo-Joon notice that and start hanging out with Joo-Kyung.
"You stoop that low for her? What makes you do that?" He sighs seeing the way I look at him.
"Because I was trying to forget you Chae-Rin! Loving someone and erasing them is hard. I need someone to distract me. And she's the one." He raises his hand to the air, with feelings detonated in the room.
I can't believe the four of us is trapped in an invincible string, connected to each other. With different feelings and different action. Deteriorating our friendship.
All because of love.
A powerful tool of mass destruction.
"It could have been other girls Seo-Joon. Not her." It was too late wishing him with someone else. She is Seo-Joon woman now.
"Are you really in love with her? Does your heart beat for her as much as it does with me?" I asked pushing him down on the sofa. I sat on his lap looking at the baffled Seo-Joon . His voice was stuck in his throat. I smirked when I got him right where I wanted.
"Is she better than me?" I whispered, trailing my finger down to his chest. He gulped his saliva in anxious and I couldn't help to chuckle. He was like a deer caught in a headlight. A stunning creature yet so naive.
"You're drunk Chae-Rin, go home." The smelt of alcohol hit his nose. Knowing I wasn't in my right sense he tried to push me off. But I cling to him tightly. Pressing my core on his pant got him stiffens.
"Maybe I'm heavily drunk in this lustful atmosphere." His breath hitched as I start kissing his neck. If he didn't want this, he would stop me. But he didn't.
"Kiss me Seo-Joon." I murmured into his ear. Casting my eyes downward, his mouth has parted. With no hesitation he pushed my lip to his. Our breathing increase as the kiss deepen. He pulled me closer, and I wrapped my hand around his neck. This sinful atmosphere is treacherous. Like Bacardi, it reach higher percentage of intoxication. Making our mind vague and body taking control.
"What..."
However, an interruption pulls us to reality. Joo-Kyung stood there with a gasp. Seo-Joon look shocked and pushed me off. But it was too late because Joo-Kyung ran off. On the other hand I wipe the lipstick smudge before taking my heels. I grinned when my plan went correctly.
Nothing is sweeter than revenge.
