Renjun press his pass code entering his house. A small smile escape his mouth. Keeping it together, he remove his shoes entering the living room. He sighs spotting multiple shopping bags. "I receive almost 2 million won of charge, I thought I was dreaming when I saw it" He comment. "No! It's our clothes for my friend's wedding" Heejin exclaims. "Sure, I already have clothes, I bought one myself"

"Then, why didn't you buy me one too?" He look away not bothering to answer. He can't just tell Heejin that the reason he forgot to buy the woman her own clothe was because what's in his head was Ahnjin's dress. "You said you already bought one, wear it then" He shifted uncomfortably. "It's tomorrow, you're coming right?"

"I am" He sighs. "I know you don't give a fuck to what's happening around you but Hyesun's future husband is my close friend" He adds. "Really?" He shakes his head entering his room. Shutting the door close behind him, he throw his blazer on his bed.

"Can I call you mine?"

"Huh?" He let out, stunned. "Sorry, stupid of me to ask that" Ahnjin shakes her head. "I haven't even answered..." He gulps the lump in his throat. "Why are you like this?" He continues. "Why do you have to keep denying it? As you deny it, it makes me wonder, are you scared of taking the risk or you're thinking that coming back to me is like stepping over your pride?"

"Is your pride more important than fixing our relationship?"

"Our relationship..." He took a deep breath. "It's not just any kind of relationship. Ahnjin, do you understand me? Our relationship....it's not just some kind of play kids these days do. I take our relationship seriously and I badly want to fix it" He said, mad. "But you, you're stepping over our relationship like nothing"

"How much more do I have to beg you just so you could fix your relationship with me?"

"Hey" Ahnjin said. "Just because a little intimacy has occur, it doesn't mean everything is going to be okay again. Let me return your question, why are you like this? Are men like this? Just because we did something a woman and a man could do—"

"So you think it's because of what happened?

" Ahnjin, I'm not that kind of man. I don't run after women with the intention of having sex with them." He snaps." Stop trying to turn the table around, whether what side you look at it..."

"I'm the victim here"

"You left me without a proper explanation."

"Stupid" He lean on the door sighing. Renjun feels upset. Why does he have to say that? He never intends to tell that to Ahnjin. Now, the thing between him and Ahnjin is bad again. He already took a step closer to his woman. One step and one wrong mistake brought him back down to where he started.

After changing into comfortable clothes, he exits his room. His stomach were asking for some warm coffee. "I know you're coming out for coffee, so..." Heejin place a teacup on the counter. "I don't drink creamy coffee" He walk over the stove. "It's a waste. At least drink half"

"I said I don't want to" He face Heejin, mad. "Why are you so mad? It's just coffee..." He sighs gripping on the counter island. "Just your presence enough annoys me." He said. "What? What do you mean?" Heejin force out a laugh. "Please get your life together and have your own house."

"I'll ask my Mom to cancel whatever you're planning with her so pack your stuffs and leave as soon as you can"

"I guess you're mistress this time is so....important to you compare to others" Heejin comments. "You don't have the right to question whatever I do, you're no my woman" He replied. "Renjun, don't be like this. We were fine. We are fine, what's the sudden change of mind?"

"We are not fine! I am not fine! I never want to do anything with you. I never imagine myself marrying someone like you."

"You're too much..." Heejin drop down on the couch. "All I want was to marry you, all I ever did was to do everything for you. Everyday, I'm alone here always expecting you to go home the next day. You rarely go home but when you do you fight head on head to me" Heejin continues pushing her hair back in frustration. "You know it from the start that I don't like you, it's your fault for accepting my  Mom's fucking offer!"

"I never want them to take over my life! My Mom told me, my figure is not so pretty. She force me to go through surgery I never want! All you can do is to hide me from the people calling me gangnam why can't you do that?" Heejin cries. "Don't ever show me your tears. I'm no soft just because you're crying."

"Renjun"

"For how long are you gonna treat me like I'm invisible?"

"You rarely go home and when you do, you don't even spare me a glance. Like my presence is nothing. Like all I did was to add burden to you" Heejin adds. "I told you to work, why didn't you look for work?" He questions. "With you spending so much of my money, do you think I could do anything? Do you think the money you're spending is just a piece of paper? You have no idea how much work I do just to earn money for your fucking shopping!"

"Everyday, I had to go inside that goddamn operation room. Everyday I would perform 5 to 8 hours of surgery. I was sleepless, I thought if I work nonstop I could get my life together and could have the guts to resign but you, you keep spending my money." He shouts. "A day is only 24 hours and an average person is only awake for 10 hours but me, I have to be awake more than 24 hours"

"I understand that it's my work but if you could, please, at least be careful of spending my money"
