Flashback
We silently lay on the bed, trying to catch our breath, holding hands.
- Bora," I called.
- Yes?
- Well we ... Well, are we a couple?" I don't know why, I was very interested in this question. We had been sleeping for almost a month and generally acting like lovers, but we never talked about our relationship.
- Do you want to be a couple?
- I don't know. What, will it change something?" Stupid me. How can a woman say "I don't know" when asked if I want us to be a couple. But Bora was a very smart woman.
- I don't think. Let's not give names, hang labels. When you want it, I mean, be a couple, with me, or with someone, you will understand it, trust me," she kissed my temple, and I again mentally thanked her. I didn't want vows of love, any promises. I felt comfortable with her, easy, and that's what I liked. I didn't want anything serious now.
- By the way, you will start to work in a week," she changed the subject.
- Really? Finally! I can't wait anymore,"I smiled sincerely.
- At first you will be just a designer. You'll see, you'll learn, if everything goes well, then you'll be the head the department.
- Thanks. You have no idea what that means to me," I said honestly.
- You are welcome. I know how you can repay this" Bora laughed, pulling me to her.
End of the Flashback
So we lived for almost three years. She did not demand anything from me, and I was with her. Yes, I was with others women, and there were many of these others. But I never brought them into our lives. I don't know if she had anyone other than me. I never asked about it. I also understood that I could not demand this from her. I worked, I did it in good conscience. Bora was pleased. She never singled me out from the workers, everything that I received, I deserved only by work. A year and a half later, I headed the design department, I had several people under my command and even a secretary. Bora had the same warm relationship for me, which had no name. She moved out of town. I bought for me a modest apartment. Which was enough money from the sale of that apartment and my savings. Bora never stayed with me. Either she simply didn't want to, or she felt that enough women had been here, I don't know. But our meetings took place on her territory. I didn't mind. And now, after all this, I am lying in a hospital bed and pretending to be asleep in front of a woman who never turned away from me, but on the contrary, always believed in me, even when I doubted myself. I felt so embarrassed and ashamed so that I opened my eyes.
- How do you feel? Did I wake you up?" she asked without releasing my hand.
- No, I didn't sleep. I was pretending," I said honestly.
- What for?" asked Bora.
- Because I have a lot to tell you, but I don't know how" I was extremely honest.
- Just say. Does it have to do with the girl who brought you?" Bora remained calm, as always.
I sighed and a tear rolled down my cheek.
- Her name is Yoohyeon, and I think I love her.
Bora was silent for a second, then wiped my tear and said:
- Love is a beautiful thing. And why are you crying?
- Because I feel like a traitor to you, because now you don't want to see me, because she won't reciprocate, and if she did, it wouldn't work, if she finds out what kind of shit I was in, she won't talk to me anymore," I blurted out all this in one breath, and tears flowed with renewed vigor.
- You like to decide for people. Decide what they will think, what they will do, how they will react. Why should I not want to see you? I didn't put a ring on you. And why do you think she won't talk to you? You are a wonderful person, you got out of this shit a long time ago and I hope that you got drunk two days ago will not affect your life in any way.
Why can't all people be as smart as Bora?
- You don't hate me?" I looked at her, but the tears were making her face blurry.
- Not. Talk to her. I think she will understand. And everything will work out," Bora leaned over and kissed me on the cheek.
- Thank you," I croaked.
- Get well soon," she said, and straightening my blanket, she left the room.
