.I nervously held my phone to my ear and kept looking at the big clock on the wall, nipping on my nails.
" Come on! Please pick up," I muttered nervously.
" Su-ri?"
I exhaled in relief when I heard JK's voice.
" Can you please just one more time?"
" Already done, we're on our way to the ice cream shop near your corner."
I smiled contentedly and calmed down .
"Thank you, you are my hero. I'm afraid I won't be out of the store until seven!"
"No big deal, I like spending time with Dae."
"Then I can pick him up from your place?"
"Of course. Do you want to talk to him for a minute?"
" Yes!"
" Hey Captain Korea, talk to your mommy!" I heard JK say as he handed Dae his phone.
" Mommy?" hearing my son's sweet voice calmed me down immensely.
" Hey baby, did you have fun at kindergarten?"
" Yes and I ate sooo much today!"
" Well done my darling. Hey, Baby ...Mommy is going to work a little late today, do you mind staying with Uncle Jungkook that long?"
"I like Uncle Jungkook!"
"I know you do, sweetie."
"I love you Mommy!"
I heard as Dae handed the phone back to JK.
"Don't worry about him okay?" Jk said.
I sighed in relief and was once again glad that I had a friend like him.
" Thank you!" I whispered.
"You owe me a date !" i could see Jungkook winking even through phone.
I smiled, "Don't eat so much ice cream before dinner!"
"Okay !" he whispered and hung up.
"Ohhhh shut up!" I heard Ruby curse....
I turned to her and she looked at me angrily.
"What?" i asked her and walked over to the counter with the shirts that were being delivered....
"When the heck are you going to sleep with him?" she walked up behind me.
"I don't know what you mean?" i grinned.
She grabbed my shoulder and turned me to face her.
"Ho Su-Ri! You know exactly what I mean!"
"I won't!" I turned back to the shirts.
"Ohhhhh, I'm about to lose it!" Ruby came around the counter and propped herself up with both hands .
"You've got a fucking hottie who's always watching your son, following you around, and you won't even let him slide over your sheets?"
"Nope!"
"Why the fuck?" she sighed annoyed.
"He's just a friend Ruby and I have my rules. " I grabbed the shrink-wrapped shirts from the box in front of me and set them aside.
"Your rules sucks!" she wrinkled her nose.
"I know!" I winked at her with a smile.
"Why don't you ever date Su-Ri? I mean I've known you for a while now but I've never seen you kiss a guy."
"The last four years were not easy for me and especially the decision to keep Dae was not easy." i said.
"But you can't just be there for Dae, you have to think about yourself too."
"Dae is my whole family and I don't want to mess it up, no guy fits in there. Jungkook is just a friend and will remain so."
Ruby nodded... "I get it, sorry!" Then she came over to me and hugged me.
I was standing in front of this hospital four years ago, wanting to get it over with and run away to Los Angeles.
But then there was this one person who I never thought would worry about me.
She sent me to Busan, to her little apartment that she owned, and sent me an angel to take care of.
'Give this child all your love, Haily.' .... I will never forget these words.
Two hours later we closed the store and I headed to Jungkook's apartment.
I remembered how I had met him and smiled.
Huddled together, I sat on the side of the road in labor pains, it was raining and he was the only one who didn't just walk past me.
He took off his jacket and put it over my head, even though I was already completely soaked.
Even when the ambulance came he pretended to be the father of the child just to not leave me alone.
Alone...... I sighed at this thought....
I was alone, on the run...from myself...from Jimin...from my old life....
....and especially.....of Yumi...
She has been hiding somewhere in this world for four years and I knew that my only task was to protect my son from her.
I was so lost in thought when my phone brought me back.
I picked it up and put it on speaker.
"Honey...how are you?" I smiled.
"Sweetie...what are you doing right now?" she asked me and I sensed something was wrong.
"I'm on my way to JK's, to pick up Dae. What's up?"
I heard her sigh..." Are you in your car?"
"Yes!" I replied ...
"Pull over!"
I did what she told me and took my phone....
"Honey what's wrong?"
It took a few seconds for her to answer me.
"He sits right in the corner where he used to sit when he just wanted to see you!"
My heart was racing, the pulse on my carotid artery was vibrating like crazy.
"Jong-hun is letting him stay in your old room," she said.
"Jimin?" I whispered, my hands starting to shake.
"Yeah!" whispered Honey back.
"Believe me, Dae looks like the spitting image of his father.""I know...Honey, please...you promised me. "
" Don't worry Su-Ri, I will keep my promise..."
"Thank you!" I whispered, close to tears.
"I'll get back to you, give Dae a kiss. Bye!" and she hung up.
It took me a few seconds to come back down. It was going to be five years and he was finally out.
"Jimin!" i whispered his name. "Jimin!"
My phone beeped , Honey had sent me a text message....
And my heart skipped a beat when I saw she was sending me a picture of him.
He was sitting in Jong-Hun's club.... and suddenly I wanted to be with him.
But I knew that we could never be together again.
I swore to protect the one I love ....
...and Yumi is still out there...
