One Shots // Bae Rona x Joo Seokhoon ✨💫🌃

S3 The Real Secret Protector (22.3)

Smirking and with a victorious grin on his face. Joo Seokhoon nods and pats Minhyuk's shoulders.

'I trust that you understand each of my request and that you keep it between us only.

Good night chingu yah....'

*Chingu (친구) - Friend*

As Seokhoon walks up the stairs to exit the community room. Lee Minhyuk hugs the paper bag and literally plops down the couch in exhaustion and annoyance.

Peeking in the paper bag, he gasps and gazes at the beautifully wrapped and still new designer bag and a elegant one piece dress. Together with a mini velvet box that contained a beautiful set of diamond earrings and a beautiful diamond encrusted pendant necklace.

'Woah!!! That bastard has taste.... How the hell do I give this to Rona though?

Won't she be weirded out that I give her such expensive gifts... Aish!!!! Why is everyone making my life so hard?'

Messing up his hair, Minhyuk closes his eyes and eventually gets up a few minutes later to walk back to his home.

----------------------------------------------------

Back to the present, Joo Seokhoon sat and gently swirled on the huge leather office chair.

He had probably already destroyed the replay button on his phone as he looped the new and short 7 second video that Minhyuk had secretly took of Rona taking the new herbal health pills that he had somehow managed to acquire.

Seeing her smile even just for 2 seconds and watching her drink the medicine for the remaining 5 seconds was already fulfilling for him.

She was finally starting to regain her strength and even found more time to hang out with friends. At least she wasn't simply dwelling in sadness and pain.

It wasn't a lie that Rona was Seokhoon's stress reliever and also his greatest support...at least aside from his mother and sister.

But having to force himself to break up and utter those harsh words to the girl he loves just because he believes that he would be able to protect her only through that way.

The feeling of happiness had completely disintegrated and flew bits by bits to the abyss.

At least now, the only thing he managed to do was to basically recruit Lee Minhyuk and have him do things that he would usually do. He would get daily reports from Minhyuk, even the most trivial of things.

For instance, what Rona did, what she ate and how many times she smiled or even.... cried.

There was already close to about a hundred individual candid photos of Rona, ranging from her practicing with Minhyuk or Jenny and even their little friend outing like shoppings, meals and simple hangouts.

Seokhoon of course, being the smart type. Made sure to install a secret app that was disguised as a calculator and moved all the pictures and video clips he got in there just in case his father tries to do anything sneaky or invade his privacy.

He was after all... Still in the middle of gaining the devil's trust by acting and living the life the devil wanted.

Leaning back down to open up the drawer under his dark oak office table. Seokhoon smiles as he takes out a beautiful mini marble box.

In the small and precious box, lay a pair of sparkly snowflake design small diamond earrings.

It was something he had commissioned and designed after he had heard from his mother that Rona would finally be able to participate in the upcoming CheongAh resident musician audition.
