It's yet another Friday and Ms. Jeon planned to visit her reading club with Yoobi. It's like a nice lunch with her friends and their daughters. They meet to have some time gossiping and exchanging experiences with each other.

Ms. Jeon prepared her famous pie and put her mauve costume on. She was excited to meet them again, it had been so long since she joined their meetings. Taking advantage of Yoobi's last vagary, she pursued to join her.

When they were about to reach the club, Yoobi got a phone call, judging by the look on her face it wasn't good news. Typing something hurriedly on her phone she turned around with the car keys ready to open the door.

"Yoobi, are you leaving me? But we just arrived and I planned this for so long..."

"I don't have time for this and I am not gonna stand there with those old hags! I need to solve something very important!", she rolled her eyes, 

"Oh, don't look at me like this! Dont tell me you regret again making me your son's wife! Cause you know what? I don't fucking care! ", saying that she sat in the car and drove away, leaving her alone.

After Yoobi left Ms. Jeon felt a sharp pain in her heart, she got near one of the benches and sit there so she won't collapse on the ground... 

Her words hurt her, she always considered Yoobi a daughter and was nice to her. Yoobi has always listened, helped, and been with her wherever and whenever she needed. When did she change so much? 

Seconds later she heard someone run toward her, then a sweet worried voice, "Ma'am? are you okay? Ms. Jeon?"

"Chaeyoung?", before she could say a word she lost consciousness

Sangeun had joined the same club, claiming that, it is good to make new connections and acquaintances, so she asked Chaeyoung to accompany her. It was probably Mrs. Jeon's luck that Chaeyoung arrived at the right time. She stayed with her since it needed her data or at least someone that knows her. 

"It's good that you were near and called the ambulance, she could have had a stroke...", the doctor explained, it turns out that Ms. Jeon has hypertension and is mentored by her doctor. 

  " For the time being, we will monitor her for the observation of her condition and other several medical parameters over time... but first, we need her guardian person ..."

"I am not related to her...",

" It's okay, we already called her son he's on his way", That means one thing, she'll meet him again ...

When he received a call from his mother's doctor that she was in the hospital with a possible stroke, Jungkook rushed there as fast as possible. 

At a reception, he found out that a young woman has brought his mother here, and is currently with her in her room. 

Opening the door he didn't expect to see her there, the woman he keeps dreaming about, the woman he longs to talk with...

"Chaeyoung!",  seeing her there beside his mother's bed he couldn't help but run to her and engulf her in a tight embrace.

Chaeyoung stiffened, she got surprised by his act, and for a moment she let herself lost in his warm arms. She could hear his heartbeat and feel his fast breathing that slowly was calming down, the same way her heartbeat was calming alongside his.

Jungkook buried his nose in her hair while keeping her head on his chest. She still feels like home and smells the same.

" I think you should let me go...", she slightly pushed him away, escaping from his hug, he keeps looking at her with those big eyes that make her feel weak, and she understands that she has to escape from it. But she softens when she sees how pale he is.

"Thank you for being there and saving her, Chaeyoung... I...", Chaeyoung stops him

"Why do you keep calling me by that name? Even though I told you that I don't want to hear it? I asked you to forget my name!", she asks,   none of them breaks the eye contact

"Because every time my name is leaving your sinful lips, my heart long to run to you and it pains me knowing that I can't... I should hate you", but she won't tell him those things...

" I can't forget it! I never did!", he hold her shoulders and took a step closer, 

"Really? Even when you were sleeping with your wife? Did you keep remembering me? ", her eyes become glossy, she saw how his face changed, he blinked, 

"Tell me you didn't share a bed with her! ", her voice cracked up, Jungkook turned his head away, too ashamed to look in her eyes, the silence said it all.

Chaeyoung pushed his hands away from her, she wants to leave, she can't stand here anymore.

" I was drunk, and it means nothing...", why did he say that? maybe he should have kept his lips sealed but he couldn't

"Please stop! Stop! I can't hear it! I know I don't have the right... but... Why does it hurt? ", she blurted out words she should have kept to herself, upon realizing it, she attempted to walk away but Jungkook got a hold of her wrist. 

He pulled her to his chest and rested his forehead on hers, closing his eyes he whispered to her to stay, "Chae...  let me fix it!", tears were already wetting her face, and she pushed him away, as much as her heart cried to stay there, her mind keeps reminding about the pain she faced.

" Fix it? You can't fix what happened... You can't bring my son to life..."

" Let go! Things between us ended when you turned your back on me. When you left me alone and didn't believe... So don't bother to talk about the past... We have nothing, while you have a wife and a son... ", She walked away, trying her best not to look back even though the urge to do so was strong.

Jungkook felt his cheek wet, his eyes betrayed him.

Little did they know that Ms. Jeon was awake and heard them. She was hurt seeing her son suffering. She heard him crying. "What have I done?", regret-filled her heart. She ruined the happiness of her son by being selfish with her wants.
