Housemates [ Jeongmo | Jeongmi | Sachaeng ]

5- Truth

"Jeongyeon, I-" Momo stuttered, she was caught in action and Jeongyeon's intense stares were making things worse.

"I won't do anything, take them. But you are forced to listen to me" she leaned on the closet behind her "it all started a year ago. When I was in a meeting at a restaurant. Bohyun's father was there on another table but something was fishy especially that they left through the kitchen's private door, so I followed them. I took a picture of Bohyun's father with a well-known mafia boss named Dragon. Since that day I followed him and gathered much information before I reported them to the police and exposed them through articles" Jeongyeon frowned "I had a friend that died because of drugs and I wanted to expose all the drug dealers in town even though they are stronger than me but I managed to catch some other drug dealers. And that's why Bohyun hates me" she sighed "I received death threats but they stopped when the public supported me"

"Bohyun is a drug dealer too?" Momo hesitantly asked, "is he?"

Jeongyeon shook her head as a no "police didn't arrest him. But he hates me because I put his father in jail. But I believe that he hides things too but I can't catch him yet"

"I didn't know about that"

"I know, I was afraid that he will use you and I was right" Jeongyeon took her wallet and sighed "I will leave now, you have the choice to steal what I've collected in the last few years, or leave the room as if nothing happened. I'll know how to either way"

Momo watched Jeongyeon leave the bedroom. She looked at the USB in her hand then at the laptop.

Will she stab Jeongyeon in her back?

A few hours later...

Jeongyeon's car was parked in one of the darkest alleys in town. The latter was sitting in the backseat while a girl was straddling her lap. The two were kissing messily and sloppily, Jeongyeon was caressing the girl's naked body "You are so good" the girl moaned while grinding her hips.

She held onto the black-haired girl's big breast, exchanging between teasing her hard nipple and massaging them. She threw her head back in ecstasy. She unbuttoned Jeongyeon's shirt and dove her hand's in the latter's bra.

Jeongyeon cupped the girl's cheek and stared up at her "I am kind and very loveable as you said a few minutes ago but when it comes to sex. I am wild and you should know that"

The girl bit down her lower lip "I am ready to get destroyed by you then" she whispered into Jeongyeon's ear making her smirk.

~~

Sun was about to rise when Jeongyeon arrived at home, she was yawning as she entered her bedroom. She was exhausted after the long night she spent with that girl, she laid flat at her bed and closed her eyes to fall into a deep sleep.

~~

Momo was in the kitchen when Jeongyeon woke up. The two, as always didn't greet each other. Jeongyeon headed directly to the living room she turned on the TV when Momo came and stood by the couch.

"I didn't take the information" she stated "I told him that I got caught and you scolded me, I lied to him" she placed the USB at the coffee table and smiled "I am preparing some pesto pasta. Can we have lunch together?"

Jeongyeon flashed Momo a bright smile "sure, Momo"

Lunchtime came and the two were having lunch silently but Momo was staring at Jeongyeon from time to time, not because the girl looked so good with her messy hair but because of the hickey on her neck. She cleared her throat grabbing Jeongyeon's attention "what?" the latter asked confusingly.

"So, how was last night?" Momo asked, she winked and her eyes darted to Jeongyeon's hickey. The latter covered it and drunk some water. Momo giggled and looked down at her plate "it's okay we all receive that" Momo comforted, she placed her hand on Jeongyeon's.

The latter hummed "I ate well, thank you" she rushed to the sink with red ears and blushing cheeks. Momo smiled shyly to herself.

"I wonder what type of guys she likes" she said under her breath.

Jeongyeon's workplace

Cheers echoed at the company as everyone was congratulating Chaeyoung and her team for their article and reportage.

"It was amazing, I am so proud of you all" Jeongyeon said while side hugging Chaeyoung who had a blank expression. She couldn't stop blaming herself for what she had done "How about we celebrate? It's on me!"

"Yeees~" everyone yelled in unison.

~~

Restaurant

"Cheers~" more than ten people yelled, everyone was enjoying their time. Jongin winked at Chaeyoung who faked a smile at him and drank the beer glass in one sip.

"Chaeyoung, you might get drunk, easy" Dahyun whispered but Chaeyoung would pour more and more.

Jeongyeon was enjoying the music and the drink, she was left with Dahyun and Chaeyoung who were drunk already.

"Cheeeers~ for our success!" she yelled. Jeongyeon apologized for the table next to them.

"Chaeyoung let me drive you home" she said as she helped her get up but she was pushed instead.

"Stop being kind!" Chaeyoung yelled a bit "stop treating people with a good heart and manners. Not everyone wishes good for you"

Jeongyeon frowned and Chaeyoung's words, she didn't know why she is talking like that.

Chaeyoung chuckled and wiped her mouth "I was the one that hacked your computer and stole your banger!" she raised her arms up in the air "Hallelujah! All this fame and success I have now I ow it to you!" she cried "you were the one that came up with the topic and I stole it"

Jeongyeon frowned, she looked down as she did her best to not sob. Dahyun was to shocked to speak "excuse me" Jeongyeon said, she drove to her house, she threw her keys randomly on the coffee table. She didn't bother and turn on the lights as the lamp was enough for her. She poured whiskey in a cup and drank it in one sip. The bitterness in her throat hit her hard. A chuckle left her mouth followed by a tear as a flashback of all of the people who backstabbed and leave her came into her mind.

Momo came into the apartment, she took off her coat and jacket "ah it's cold" she looked at the clock "oh it's almost midnight and she is not home" she said as she didn't find Jeongyeon's shoes until she heard a noise from the living room. Momo gasped when she saw Jeongyeon sitting with her shoes on "someone broke the rule" she joked as she turned on the light just to see Jeongyeon staring blankly at the table in front of her with swollen eyes. The whiskey bottle is almost empty "you drank a lot" she said as she sat next to her, she yelped when she saw Jeongyeon this broken, she held her breath when Jeongyeon stared at her eyes blankly.

"Why does it always happen to me?" she asked "why do I always treat people good and they always treat me like shit in return?"

"Because you have a pure heart and that's hard to exist"

"How do I become bad? Can you help me?" a tear escaped Jeongyeon's eye "I want to be bad for once and not think about everyone before myself" she sighed "When I give love all they do is give me scars and trauma"

"'It's hard" Momo sighed "I've known you for only a few weeks but I can tell how sweet and kind you are" she smiled "you didn't allow me to pay for the bedroom, clean the dishes when I am tired and help me improve my broken Korean" she laughed at the last one "so don't allow bad people to affect you. You are enough and do not change, God exists and he will reward you"

Jeongyeon smiled at Momo's comforting word. The latter froze when Jeongyeon rested her head on her lap "play with my hair" she said "please" she added.

Momo cleared her throat and compiled, she softly and sincerely caressed Jeongyeon's head "you are doing well" she soft-spoken. Not so much passed and Jeongyeon fell asleep, Momo took off the older's shoes before she covered her with the blanket. She smiled at Jeongyeon's sleeping figure before she headed to the bedroom.
