Second Best(2yeon/Najeong version)

All Secrets are Finally Out

Nayeon

I never told Jinyoung about the baby I wanted to see if he was really lying about his relationship with Jisoo so much for that plan.

Jeongyeon stares Jinyoung down and I push her back but she doesn't budge.

" What?" Jinyoung asks.

" You didn't tell him?" Jeongyeon turns to me with her jaw slack.

The blood drains from my face leaving me colorless as much as I wanted to not mention the baby because I wanted him to tell me I also didn't want to acknowledge it Jinyoung and I had a host of fertility issues but the main one was me, I have PCOS therefore I was the biggest contributing factor polycystic ovary syndrome causes my hormones to constantly be unbalanced and renders me practically infertile my doctor explained even if I could get pregnant I needed to be aware I was very high risk.

" I didn't know how" I mutter.

" Nay look at me" Jinyoung steps forward and my heart begins to sputter it hurts all over again.

Jeongyeon's eyes implore me to tell Jinyoung" Acknowledging the baby to him is a reminder that its me who couldn't have a bay I didn't want to face that so soon."

She nods and then I turn to Jinyoung" I know it all I know about your relationship you keep telling me is nothing and I know about the baby you and your girlfriend were having" I look at the now practically empty home except for my parents and Jihyo" Now's the time to be brutally honest because there's nothing that can hurt me more at this point" Jinyoung sits on the step and now I wait.

" I think this is something you and I should discuss privately."

I half laugh" I didn't get that luxury finding out I had to be in a crowded bar with all of our friends when I found out that you the man I would have never imagined cheated I had to stand there and have her tell me about how much she loved you and while you may not have loved her the way she did I saw her pain" My voice is low but he cringed.

" All I could think about was you" he says not fully admitting what he did" So you are going to throw it all away? Our whole life?"

And there is for the first time he's not denying or circumventing how deep their relationship was" Did you know she was pregnant?"

" Yes" Jinyoung says barely audible.

No matter how much I love Jeongyeon this still hurts Jinyoung wasn't just some guy he was my partner and the one person who promised to love me and honor me I was guilt ridden after he was gone about having any kind of feelings for anyone.

" So was all of what you said a lie? Were you in love with her?" I ask him unsure if it matters at this point.

Jinyoung stands and Jeongyeon's arms hold my shoulders from behind here I am between them both" No I loved her it wasn't even an inch of the love I have for you being held over there reminded me of that I made vows and promises to god and anyone who would listen about the man I'd be when I came home" he says looking straight into my eyes" I love you Nayeon I always have and I always will."

" You broke the very core of our marriage."

" I can fix it" he pleads with me" I fought for you I lived for you please give us a chance."

We stare at each other and I see the man I promised to love in sickness and in health for better or for worse I am torn in half and burnt to ash everything inside of me is dead how do I do this? How do I break him when he's already broken? I know that my answer right now will kill him in some form and if I spare him it'll be in false hope then the added pressure of knowing Jeongyeon will hear whatever I say.
