My first and last

Chapter 8

It was friday, and Jungkook, as he had promised, took Dal to visit his mysterious savior, whom his son was so fond of.

The place was indeed a dream for kids, they were running around and having fun while their parents were busy choosing gifts.

"Dal, do you see her?", they looked around searching for her

"Mmm, no, maybe we should ask someone?", his father agreed

They approached a worker with the name tag Ryujin,

"Excuse me miss, do you perhaps know a worker Rosie?", Dal asked, charming the young lady with his manners, Jungkook was again proud of his son

"How cute can you be? She is right there...", she showed them the way

There she was on a ladder, arranging some stuffed toys. With her back to them, she could not see them.

Dal ran towards her leaving his father behind, her figure seemed familiar to him. Suddenly a strange feeling came over him.

Walking in their direction, he watched how Dal called her name and that's when he saw her face... How can this be... after so many years, of silence and unawareness about each other...

"Chaeyoung...", he called her with nostalgia, trying her name on his lips as if he was experiencing a long-forgotten memory.

Chaeyoung who was smiling at Dal suddenly stiffened, she turned around and met his shocked face a few steps away from her.

How should she feel seeing again the one she once fell in love with, the person who was the reason for her love-filled heart and the one who shattered it in pieces too...

"I think you confused me with someone, sir, my name is Roseanne...", she responded formally, trying to keep her cool. Jungkook observed her tag name, "Kim Roseanne... she changed her name or...?"

"Dad! This is the angel I told you about!", he said happily

Chaeyoung was shocked, she looked at them processing the information she just heard. "Dal, is his son?", she was mad.

How can this happen? The day she met Dal she felt so fond of him. Her heart melted at his sight. But now..., now she doesn't know how to feel... She's afraid that she can lose her mind... again...

"Dad? Can I invite her to my birthday now?", she stiffened again, cold rushed through her body, his birthday?

"Dal, can you please go and chose a toy... I'll talk with your friend about your birthday...!, Dal jumped happily and run to the mountains of toys

"Thank you for saving him... ", why is this so awkward? how should he talk and what should he say?

"He wants you to...",

" No! How can you even ask something like that, the moment we met, after what happened? Do you even hear yourself?", she cut him off,

She's right, what he's saying and asking is impossible. But Dal, he likes her, what a twist.

"Dal would be sad, please...", he knows he's being selfish right now, he didn't even think about the reaction of his mom and wife.

"Don't beg me! I won't come, because the day your son was born ... mine died!", her voice said it all, the pain and the hatred she was holding inside

"Chaeyoung, what happened with your son wasn't my fault...", he attempted to approach her, his hands wanting to pull her in his arms. But it's impossible, it's ridiculous to even dream about this.

"Dont call me by that name! And don't talk to me! You don't have the right!", she started to panic and became emotionally unstable. It was an unpleasant sight, seeing her trembling hands and red eyes full of tears and anger.
