Jisung's eyes drifted to his girlfriend whom he hasn't met for almost a year. And weird, the woman isn't sparing him a glance. "I'll be back, excuse me" Iseul said exiting the room, walking past his tall figure. This time, Jisung is sure. The woman is avoiding him. Taking the chance to talk to Iseul, he excuse himself. "Excuse me, I'll be back later"

"Iseul!" He run after the woman. Iseul halts looking up on him. "Why aren't you responding to my messages? The whole year, I was messaging and trying to call you." He adds. "You left school, why? No I mean, why didn't you tell me?" The woman question. "How did you found out about that?" The only thing that escape his mouth. "It doesn't matter. We're done" and the woman turn her back beginning to leave the hospital.

"Cho Iseul! Stop" He run after the woman again. "Jisung?" He raise a brow looking up. "Yangyang?" He greets. "Wow. It's been a while. You grew tall. Has my Iseul been bugging you?" Yangyang throw an arm around Iseul. Jisung's eyes shakes as he run his eyes over the hand on the shoulder of his woman. "My Iseul?" He repeats. "Yeah, her, my bro" Yangyang nods. "Let go of me" The woman break away from Yangyang.

"Come on, you like it" Yangyang teases. "Hey, being a dick is not living for it your whole life." Iseul starts. "Don't live up to it like others" The woman give him one glance before leaving. "Were she pertaining to the both of us?" Yangyang point at himself. "I guess...?" He scratch his head. "Hey, I have something to tell you"

"What is it?"

"Has your friend been like that?" Yangyang starts. "Like what?" He frowns. "She kept calling me names like she hate me so much. And one time she call my dick 2 inch" The man lift two fingers. He let out a snicker only to mumble a sorry later on. "It's funny?" Yangyang scratch his head. "I don't find it funny tho? Don't I get the joke? Or I'm the joke?"

"Anyway, see you later. Have to go see Renjun" Yangyang pat his shoulder. "Yeah, see you" He nods as the man walk past him going to the room he was in just a minute ago. Remembering the reason he rush back to Seoul, he run after his girlfriend.

Just as he was about to look around for his girlfriend, a hand was tightly gripping on his collar. "I...Iseul" He stutters. "We need to talk. Come with me" The woman drag him to an alleyway. "Iseul, let me explain"

"Of course you have to explain. But not as my boyfriend anymore. Why did you disappear?" Iseul cross her arm. "Hey, we never broke up" He straighten up. "Oh, we did. Wow. You did not listen to the voice message I sent you? I clearly said we're done" The woman claims. "I did but you cannot break up with me through messages. Are we kids?"

"Well, sure, let's break up" Iseul said. "No" He interjected. "I control this relationship. You can't break up with me without hearing me out" He snaps. "You're right, cause for the last 13 month you are gone, I hear nothing but silence!" Iseul raise her voice. She cannot control it anymore. She miss the man so much. "I was healing" Jisung answer. "What?"

"I recently had a dangerous surgery. I didn't know it was so bad that I was in bed for 3 to 5 months. I was planning to return as soon as possible but, without even knowing, I had to be in bed until I can finally move on my own"

"But, the moment I woke up, I cannot feel anything. And I have to attend a therapy session. The therapy took almost 4 months. And when it's done, I said I'll return right away but my doctor said I can't and I shouldn't. Cause it will be bad. Any complications can happen, he said."

"While healing, I kept asking my Mom if there's a new message from you but her answer were always the same, no message from you. That made me rush things up, I help myself to the bone to return and explain everything to you."

"It took me 10 days to finally have the chance to see you, I have no contact of you. And the rest said they have no contact of you too so I ask Jaemin, he said you both were attending the same University. I was glad"

"I'm glad that someone is watching over you while I'm gone"

"I was so worried that something might happen to you cause I know how dumb you are. That's why I told Jaemin to watch over you for the mean time and he said you're grown up already and don't need anyone to watch but still, I told him to watch over my world"

"What happened to you? Why didn't you tell me any of this?" She let out. Shook by the information she just listen to. "We were playing basket. My shoulder suddenly felt heavy and the next morning, I cannot move it anymore. So I went to our family doctor, he said it's dislocated. I told him to arrange me a surgery as soon as possible but during that time, no doctor was present to do my surgery. I had no choice but to take temporary leave which took almost a year and fly to another county to have my surgery"

"I'm afraid"

"I'm afraid that I won't be able to embrace you anymore"

"Then, why didn't you tell me?!" She yells. Jisung chuckles stepping closer to her. The man was fast to embrace her. Her cheeks resting on his chest. "I'm sorry. I don't want you to worry and I'm afraid you'd want to come" Jisung run his huge hand on her hair. "I miss you" The man adds. "Then, did you miss the whole year? How about school?"

"I already catch up. As of now, I'm finding place to study. Besides, my current university is closing" Jisung shrug. "My bro!" Yangyang approach them. "I thought you'll be visiting Renjun?" Jisung asks, surprise by the sudden interruption. "I did but her Mom called me. She said you have dinner tonight and you have to go home now"

"Ah, right. Jisung, I need to go" Iseul run past them. "Yangyang" He calls. The man raise a brow facing him. "Please drive Iseul home" He adds. "I will"

"Your car is so damn dirty" Iseul comments whilst Yangyang starts the engine. "At least I have a license" Yangyang exits the hospital property. "Stop the car" She respond to the man's statement. "Sorry, come on, I apologize. Don't be mad about it" Yangyang chuckles.

The rest of the ride went by the two arguing here and there. And without them realizing, they have reach back home. Iseul was fast to remove her seat belt. She unlock the door slamming it behind her. "Why are you getting off?" She raise a brow. "None of your business, Ms. Cho Iseul" Yangyang slip his tongue out entering the house before her.

"Minha!" Yangyang carry the child on his arm. "Hey, what are you doing here?" She nudge the man. "Minha, Iseul is hitting me" Yangyang talk to the child. "Yangyang, you made it" Mark enter the living room. "I did and Iseul is kicking me out already"

"Iseul" Mark calls. "This is Yangyang, which you know, of course, he's here because uh he's gonna buy the house next door. Which I own" Mark explains. "This man? He will buy the house next door? All he does is party and he's gonna buy it?" She points at Yangyang. "Let me get Minha" Mark smiles. "I am buying it. With that..."

"We can have our privacy" The man whispers following Mark to the said location. Rolling her eyes, she follows the man to the dining room. "Iseul, have a seat" Her Mom greets. She nods sitting beside Mark, which is her chair. "7 chair? Who else is coming?" She asks. "Iseul" Turning, she's welcome by her Dad. "Dad!" She run to her Dad. Her Dad was fast to hug her and caress her hair as endearment.

"Jisung, my Dad visited me" She smiles at the phone. "Your Dad? How did it go?" The man respond. "It went well and Jisung" She calls. "Hm?" Jisung hum. "I miss you too" She smiles. "Me too, I miss you so much."

"Iseul" This time, it's her turn to hum. "I want to kiss you so bad so, please don't be so mad at me. You do know I have a reason for leaving, right?" Jisung states. "I'm not a mad. Well, I was, because you disappear for so long!" She raise her voice. Jisung chuckles deeply. "Don't worry, this time, I won't disappear anymore"

"I won't let any man drop a hand on your shoulder like I witness earlier. They should know you're mine"
