Bella Vita: a Tale of Love (CNBLUE Jung Yong Hwa x Song Hye Kyo Fanfic)

Episode 12: "Only Heart Could Remember"

The evening found the Lee family in the stark, sterile environment of the hospital. Yeol was rushed into the emergency room, his condition critical. Everyone were all there, their expressions filled with worries and fears.

The usual grandeur and warmth of the Lee Mansion seemed a world away as they huddled together in the hospital waiting room. The lively atmosphere of the engagement party was replaced with a heavy silence, broken only by the occasional beeping of medical equipment and hushed conversations of the medical staff.

The doctor finally emerged from the operating room, his face grave. "We've done all we can for now," he said, his voice echoing in the silence of the room. "He's in a coma. His condition is critical."

Chairman Lee, usually composed, looked visibly shaken. "When will he wake up?" he asked, his voice filled with worry.

The doctor sighed, his expression sympathetic. "We can't say for sure. It could be days, weeks, even months. All we can do is wait and hope for the best."

The news sent a wave of shock through the room. The atmosphere was tense, the air thick with worry and fear. As they waited for news of Yeol's condition, the lively chatter and laughter from the engagement party now seemed like a distant memory.

At the Hotel;
Meanwhile, Mi Cha having no idea on what happen to Yeol, grapples with the harsh truths she overheard at the party. The room is dimly lit, the only sound is the ticking of the clock on the wall. The lively atmosphere of the party seems a world away as she sits alone, her mind a whirl of thoughts.

She feels a deep sense of betrayal, especially from Yeol. The man she had trusted had used her, and the realization hits her hard. She talks to herself, her voice echoing in the silence of the room. "How could he do this to me?" she wonders aloud, her voice barely a whisper.

She spends the night packing her bags, her movements mechanical. The room is filled with tension, the air heavy with her disappointment and hurt. She picks up her phone, her fingers hovering over Yeol's contact. But she shakes her head, putting the phone down again.

The next morning, she books a one-way ticket back to Italy. As she looks around the now empty hotel room, she feels a mix of relief and sadness. "This is for the best, Mi Cha~" she tells herself, her voice firm despite the tears welling in her eyes. She takes one last look around before closing the door behind her, leaving behind a chapter of her life.

At the Hospital;
Back at the hospital, the days turned into weeks, and weeks into months. Yeol's hospital room became a second home for the Lee family, the sterile smell of the hospital a constant reminder of Yeol's condition. The once lively Lee Mansion seemed a world away as they waited for the young master Yeol to wake up.

The engagement was officially called off, but the business partnership between Chairman Lee and Rina's father was carried on as planned. The atmosphere was tense, the hospital room filled with a heavy silence as they hopefully waited for Yeol to wake up.

One day before returning to Italy, Rina decided to address the elephant in the room. She gathered everyone in the lounge area of Yeol's hospital room, her expression serious. "I have something to confess," she began, her voice echoing in the room. "I had no intention of marrying Yeol. I actually planned to call off the engagement."

Her words hung in the air, the tension in the room palpable. Chairman Lee and her father looked at her, his expression unreadable. "Why are you telling us this now?" her father asked, his voice filled with disappointment.
