HOPELESS LOVE [CHOI SEUNGCHEOL]

CH: 35

Seungcheol

I was driving and it started raining suddenly. "Oh, rain" it was way too unexpected, it was windy in the morning but then, but come to think of it, we are almost three hours away from home so the weather might differ from place to place.

I was still driving, and since I wanted to have dinner with Shasha, I was excited but looking at the rain made me think about a second thought, rather we go home directly. "it feels good to see rain only when you're in your bed and inside the covers" she was smiling I could feel that, "true that because I like to watch the rain, getting wet in rain is rare but it feels good to just sit by the balcony and watch it."

I turned on the music player and songs started playing, "I love this vibe" hope she could relax a bit. I was driving at my peacefully.

After some time, I heard her say "It's already 7:35 pm, and we might take two more hours to reach home, I miss my bed" it was only thirty minutes since I was driving. "tell me, you love sleeping, right?" I stopped at the traffic light, "Yes I do." She smiled, "and I will never lie about that, it's my favorite activity" I looked at the green lights and started driving again.

"I can see that" I laughed.

Since it was raining to bad, I couldn't see everything clearly which was at a very distance and then I saw the road was blocked, and that's the reason cars were standing. I stopped the car, "looks like something happened?" I nodded, "hopefully the road we will take is open at the dissection because the other road doesn't have a way to our home."

"Right" and after 20 minutes the cars started moving slowly, I started driving the car since the cars were moving slowly, I was driving in a very slow speed, and the moment we reached at the turning point, I saw

"Holy shit" we both cursed out at the same time
"holy shit"

"what do we do now?" she asked me, I rolled down the glass of the window and asked the police officer about the whole thing and why is the road blocked. The police officers said, there was a traffic accident and roads are blocked. So, we can't possibly go and it will take around five to six hours or maybe more than that. I took the other side of the road and after driving a bit, I stopped the car in a corner.

"We can't go back home, it will take time." She sighed, "what do we do now?" she looked at me. I lowered the volume of the music, "I know this area and I know the hotels here, we can stay here for a night and we will go back tomorrow morning. There's one traffic accident, and it will take time. We can't go tonight." Thankfully I came to this place for office work earlier so I know hotels and restaurants nearby. She was thinking, "but Seungcheol...." She trailed off, not sure what she wants to say, "is something wrong??" she got me worried, "no but will that be okay with you?" she was worried about me. "I'll be okay, let me check the nearest hotel." After checking my phone I started driving.

After around twenty minutes we reached a hotel, I parked the car "let me go and ask if rooms are available or not" she nodded. It was still raining, I went out of the car and went inside the hotel. As soon as I got inside, I saw lots of people, is everyone who got couldn't go home because of the accident here? There was a line infront of the reception, the last time I visited this hotel was the best. If this is the situation of this big four-star hotel then I wonder which one of the hotels would be available right now. I checked my phone, everything is almost gone, I went back to the car.

"What happened?" she looked at me, "booked, everything is booked. There's this one hotel but it will take around half an hour to get there. They probably have rooms left. Let's go" I started driving, focusing on the road because it was raining and the road might get slippery which will lead to an accident. "How does this hotel have no rooms left??" I heard her, "since the accident took place, lots of people can't go back home who take that road to go back home, just like us. So they are probably staying overnight." She sighed, "and the hotel we are going right now?"
