Episode 27 - Friends

Author P.O.V: After saying "I was forced" three times, Seonghwa was totally in tears. Meanwhile, you decided to untie San from his chair. You hugged him again and then you went closer to Seonghwa. You sat down in front of him. You wanted to comfort him but kept on remembering what he had done to you and San. So, you were hesitant about whether you should try to comfort him or not. You just put your hand on his chin and raised his head. You got shocked after seeing his red eyes. They were fully red and tears were streaming continuously from his eyes. You looked back at San who was as shocked as you were. San sat beside you.

San: Umm, Seonghwa? Are you okay there dude?

Author P.O.V: Seonghwa gave no reply. He was still crying. He started speaking after a few seconds but was stuttering between his words.

Seonghwa: I-I'm sorry... I didn't mean any of this... I didn't...

San: What...? You did not? Are you telling the truth or are you trying to make us fall into your trap?

Seonghwa: I'm saying the t-truth... I was forced for all of this!

Y/N: I'm sorry Seonghwa but after all, you have done to us... We can't believe you this easily. Is there some evidence you were forced for all of this?

Seonghwa: I have a story to say, you all may or may not believe this but all I will say is true...

San: You will say the truth from the beginning to the end of the story?

Seonghwa: Yes, but before that. Y/N, do your parents have their own business?

Y/N: Yes, but how do you know?

San: This sounds like a trap.

Seonghwa: It isn't!

San: Really? Then how did you know that her parents own a business?

Seonghwa: Let me start my story first...

Y/N: Okay, you can start now.

Seonghwa: Okay, I'll start... Y/N, me and San. All of our dads used to be friends back in college. Like very close friends. They always helped each other in whatever way they could. After they completed college, Y/N and my dad were able to have their own business. However, San's dad wasn't able to. He worked in a bank for some time but decided to quit since he found the job boring and didn't have any interest in it from the start. However, since he quit his job, he and his wife weren't able to raise San properly. They had to sacrifice many things like water, and food just so that San could live properly. Soon enough, San's mom passed away. When Y/N's dad got to know about this, he decided to help his friend by making him his secretary. And ever since then, San's dad got a great salary and he even married Yuna's mother later. His family was able to eat and live properly. But when my dad got to know about this, he wasn't happy. He thought that San's dad was using Y/N's dad just for money and nothing else. So, he decided to ruin San's dad's life. But every time he would try to do something, he would get caught. And one day, Y/N's dad had enough and broke all connections with him. This time, my dad was furious at Y/N's dad. So, he decided to ruin his life now. But as time went by, my dad started getting old and knew he couldn't anything new, but he knew I was still young and could do a lot more than him. He wanted to attack Y/N's dad first but knew he was smarter than San's dad and he would get caught easily so he stuck to San's dad as his target. But the problem was that he didn't know I was good friends with San already, and when I denied his order, he forced me and said that if I don't ruin San's life then he would ruin mine instead. So, I did as he told me to. So everything I had done till now was because of my dad, from me cheating on him with his girlfriend to kidnapping him. Everything I had done because of my dad.

Author P.O.V: You and San heard the whole story. You two were blank.

Y/N: So, this means... You didn't mean to hurt anyone during this, right?

Seonghwa: Yeah. And San, I still have the same feelings towards as I did four years ago...  I still look at you with love, like a friend... Not with hatred, like an enemy.

Author P.O.V: Tears started forming in San's eyes after Seonghwa said that.

San: Y-You mean it?

Seonghwa: Yes, San... Every time I hurt you, I cry... I cry with all my heart out... I realize that the person who had always stayed with me and comforted me four years ago is the one who I'm hurting now...

Author P.O.V: Both of them hugged each other. They kept on crying on each other's shoulders. After seeing two friends again connecting after so long, you started crying as well. They invited you in their hug as well and all three of you hugged together. However, you remembered about Seonghwa's dad.

Y/N: But guys, what will we do now? We got our problems cleared but what about Seonghwa's dad? Nothing is stopping him from attacking San's dad again and again!

San: Oh yeah, forgot about him...

Seonghwa: We can't think of anything right now, it'd be better if both of you go home now. It's already pretty late, I'll drop both of you at your house.

San: Haven't seen such a nicer side of you in four years...

Seonghwa: I know, it feels good to be helping people after so long!

Author P.O.V: All three of you laughed and walked out of his mansion.

Y/N: Seonghwa, I must say, your mansion is pretty cool though. Maybe we three could stay here after passing college.

Seonghwa: Uhh, we can't actually...

Y/N: Why not?

Seonghwa: That's a good idea but I and San still need more time to pass out.

Y/N: What? Oh, wait~ You and San joined this year. Wait a minute! I never asked when your birthday of you two is! Does that mean I'm older than both of you?

San: Yeah, you are. Happy?

Y/N: More than happy! That's pretty cool!

Seonghwa: Never seen a girl be so happy just because she is older than two boys.

Y/N: Have you seen the age difference though? Older than two boys by T-W-O years!

San: Yeah, you were lucky enough.

Seonghwa: Whatever, let's go before your dad scolds you.

Y/N: Oh yeah, forgot about him as well!

Author P.O.V: You three got into Seonghwa's car and he dropped you and San off at your houses. You were finally happy that everything was settled between you, San and Seonghwa. But, you three still had to deal with Seonghwa's dad.

Hey guys! So, now we know the true story behind Seonghwa and his wrongdoings. Yes, his dad is an absolute slimeball but we'll deal with him later. I hope you all will like the next one!
