Things Of Destiny (Jiyoo) English Ver

11

When Yoohyeon came out of the bathroom she dried herself with a towel and then put on her pajamas, which fit her perfectly, although a little short due to her height. She dried her hair with the hair dryer that was in one of the drawers and when she was ready she prepared to go downstairs.

As she stepped out into the hallway a delicious aroma of food filled her nostrils and tears almost came to her eyes again. After weeks of not being able to put anything in her mouth she could finally eat something, her guts began to growl and she didn't hesitate to go downstairs. She didn't know where the kitchen was so she decided to call Jiu but her voice wouldn't come out.

-Yoohyeon, come with me, dinner is ready.

Luckily she found Ms Lee coming downstairs as she had gone to drop something to Jiu's room.

-How should I address you, ma'am?

-Oh, you can call me Unnie-she said with a smile which Yoohyeon returned and nodded.

The two went to the kitchen where Jiu was waiting.

-Well, I'll serve dinner and leave, my shift is over.

Jiu just nodded while Yoohyeon looked at Ms Lee in confusion as she served them dinner.

-Well Minji, you know that if anything happens you can call us and we will come right away, see you girls tomorrow.

-See you tomorrow-said both girls, and until Yoohyeon was sure that Ms. Lee had left, she didn't ask.

-Why does your mother have to leave?

Jiu almost choked on her food and Yoohyeon realized that maybe she shouldn't have asked.

-Are you okay?

-Ms Lee is not my mother, she is Siyeon's mother, my parents are dead-she said in a dry tone.

-Oh, I'm so sorry, I didn't know.

-It's really nothing, I didn't even love them, they were more at work than with me.

-They were silent for a few seconds until Yoohyeon spoke again.

-My parents are dead too-she said lowering her head making Jiu look at her carefully.

-Wow, I'm sorry.

-Actually I almost don't remember them, it was when I was 4 years old....

For the first time Jiu had met someone who shared her same family situation, her parents didn't die when she was little but it was as if they were, she saw them once a month if she was lucky, since they were spent traveling on business.

When they started to eat Jiu noticed that Yoohyeon was eating almost desperately, she noticed a glance on her and when she looked up from her plate she found Jiu's eyes fixed on her, so she stopped eating and wiped her face with a paper ashamed.

Yoohyeon thought that she had never been embarrassed so many times in a row until she met Jiu and Siyeon, both of them were too straightforward and made her feel intimidated easily. She finished her food before Jiu but her guts kept rattling embarrassing her again. Jiu looked at her raising an eyebrow.

-Do you want more?

Yoohyeon just nodded shyly without looking at her and Jiu rolled her eyes.

-Then pour some more.

Yoohyeon listened to her and poured herself some more food, she had never tasted such good food.

-This delicious

-Yes, Mrs. Lee is a very good cook.

-By the way, is your name Minji?

-Yes, but everyone calls me Jiu, except people who have known me since I was a little girl.

When they both finished eating Jiu put things in the dishwasher.

-I think it's time to go to sleep.

Yoohyeon nodded and they each went to their rooms.

Jiu was swimming in the pool together with Siyeon at night, everything seemed normal, until suddenly the sky started to turn orange and there started to be a dense fog so they went inside the house, when they went inside, they dried off and put some clothes on when they entered the living room Jiu saw a silhouette sitting on the sofa.

-Who are you and how did you get in?

Suddenly the person turned her gaze towards her and everything around her disappeared, leaving her in a dense fog as before outside the house.

-You don't remember me Jiu unnie-said Yoohyeon with a sad smile and started to walk towards her until he was in front of her.

-What are you...?-she tried to say but Yoohyeon put a finger on her lips.

-You won't escape from me so easily-she said with a smile and suddenly Jiu woke up.

"Why did I dream about her again?" she asked herself.

She noticed that her throat was dry so she decided to go downstairs to get a glass of water, she was getting to the kitchen when she bumped into someone making her startle.

-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!-she screamed and started hitting the person.

-AAAAA! Unnie! UNNIE!  Stop! AAA! That hurts

Just then Jiu remembered that Yoohyeon was with her.

-ARE YOU STUPID? YOU SCARED THE FUCK OUT OF ME!

Yoohyeon tried to hold back her laughter but failed.

-WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU LAUGHING AT?

-Sorry unnie, it's just that it made me laugh.

-What are you doing here at this hour, it's 3 in the morning?

-I was thirsty, I'm leaving now-she said and walked around Jiu to go back upstairs to her room.

Jiu just rolled her eyes and went to get her glass of water.
