"Please come again soon" Mrs. Hwang said as we were getting in the car.
"We will," Hyunjin said. As if we had a 'we' between us. As if we have been 'we' for a long time. Shouldn’t I smack his head because of embarrassing me this much.
I'll probably go home and write a resignation letter. His grin is creeping me out.
"y/n I respect your opinion but don't take too much time,sweetheart" Hyunjin's mom added.
"For?"
"Why does she look clueless?" she asked, looking at Hyunjin this time. "Mom, it's okay. You don't need to push her. We'll be going now" I heard him saying.
His mom nodded. "If he mistreats you let me know" she said with a smile.
I gave her a very awkward smile. Who's gonna tell her I'm just an employee.
"Bye,mom"
"Bye"
I didn’t say anything for half an hour. I was wondering where to start asking him.
"Why aren’t you asking anything?" Hyunjin asked.
"I just lost my words. I don’t even know what to ask or what to say. You should've at least tell me you were going to put me on this show"
"It's not a show. It's do or die to me"
"How are you gonna explain to your parents after some time? It's not I'm gonna marry you"
"You won't marry me? He asked with a whispering tone,giving me shivers.
I shook my head. " It's obvious. Why would I? As you said you are friends"
"You're gonna pretend like we are nothing? "
"I'm not pretending. That's true. I just work at a company where you happened to be CEO." I explained.
He sighed and stopped the car. He looked at me. This is that look which would make your legs weak for no reason. That indimating two eyes staring at me. I tried to look away but his eyes were daring. As if it was saying 'dare to look away. I bet you can't'
"What?" I asked,breaking the heavy silence. "Stop staring. If you don't wanna drop me at home I can go by myself"
I unbuckled the seat belt but he hold my wrist,still not saying a word. "What are you even trying to do?" I asked when I saw him buckling my seat belt.
"Why are you doing this? I apologised for thousands times" Hyunjin said.
"It still doesn’t change anything, Hyunjin. I'm more than fine how i am. So let this old topic go"
"We can start-"
"We can't. We broke up years ago. You broke up with me. Now you can't just ask for getting together. I'm sure I made this clear a long ago." I said.
"I wasn’t thinking st-"
"Do you understand how silly the reason was? Actually the reason isn't what was silly. It was your comment towards me which was silly" I told him. A glimpse of that day came in my mind.
I remember how Hyunjin said he felt like he was in prison while dating me. Though I never stopped him from hanging out with whoever he wants he still said I was always jealous and didn’t let him go with his friends.
He thought I didn’t trust him enough when he was the person I trusted the most.
The day I interviewed in the company I am in right now I saw him after 5 months. He said sorry for being rude but never said sorry for breaking my heart.
