The Third Woman

Desire Or Friendship ?

After that, they showered together and went down to eat breakfast. Thankfully, the family wasn't at home, so it was only them since Do-Ha's mother and father went to work, as well as his sister and brother-in-law. And his nephew and niece were in school, so that they could eat breakfast alone. Ri-Ta didn't know what she should say since they hadn't even talked about the situation in the bathroom or what they should do now. And she didn't dare to ask since she was afraid that he would say that they couldn't stay friends.  Do-Ha knew that they had to talk about their situation, and he didn't know what it was, but Ri-Ta was like an addiction to him. When he saw her yesterday, he was so drawn to her but didn't dare to make a move since he didn't want to hurt her feelings. And then, after the party, he couldn't control himself anymore, he hugged and kissed her.
When he noticed how she was still by his side after they went home, he couldn't hide his feelings for her anymore, and then he kissed her. And when he apologized, she kissed him back, so he knew she also liked him.  When he woke up, Do-Ha saw that Ri-Ta was still sleeping, and he observed her. She was stunning, and as she slept in his arms, she was so peaceful. He leaned in to give her a small kiss on her forehead, and when he noticed that she woke up, he pretended to sleep. He didn't know what to say as they sat downstairs, and he didn't know what had come over him just now. She was like an addiction, and when he saw her standing at the bathroom door with just a towel around her body, he felt his desire grow inside of him. He noticed that she had such an effect on him. She was the only girl that let him feel these emotions. Not even his current girlfriend could make him feel these emotions. It was like fire and suddenly like ice. He was feeling hot and cold the next. His heart rate rose, and this desire to love her, please her, satisfy her came over him, and he couldn't control his body. He felt sorry for his girlfriend since he knew that deep down he loved Ri-Ta, but he didn't want to ruin his relationship with her, so he didn't dare to confess his feelings for her. He didn't know if she still wanted to be friends with him after yesterday and today. But he knew that he had to control himself when he was with her because he didn't want to use her only for sex. Since they were good friends, he knew that she wouldn't betray her boyfriend to have a sexual relationship with him and still act like friends.  Because he knew that he couldn't be with her since his parents wouldn't allow it.

Ri- Ta, on the other side, thought what would happen now. Would they act like nothing happened? Maybe that was for the best. And she decided to speak to Do-Ha. Ri-Ta: Do- Ha about yesterday and today. I think we should just forget about it. It was just a sudden emotional reaction from both of us, we didn't think and let our desires take over. We are both in a relationship. Do- Ha: I am sorry Ri- Ta. Is it really okay for you? If you want me to be responsible I will. I don't know how but I will. Ri- Ta: Don't worry, I also agreed to this so I am also at fault.  I know that we will be like this after it. I am okay. We can still be friends, right? Do-Ha looked at her and he was sorry for her, he didn't want her to feel like this. So he stood up and hugged her, she hugged him back and then told him that she should go now. He nodded and since he knew that she wanted space he told her that he wouldn't say goodbye to her.

Ri-Ta left the house and couldn't believe what had happened. Did she just pretend that nothing happened and that all of this that had happened last night and a few hours ago didn't mean anything?  She still couldn't believe it. When she was home she heard her phone ring, it was her boyfriend, he wanted to meet her. She couldn't say no since it had been a while since they had last gone on a date and so she agreed to meet him. They met at the subway station and went to the cinema after that they went to a restaurant and ate Ramen, Ri- Ta had to think about Do-Ha when they ate Ramen, but she tried to forget him so she asked her boyfriend Min-ho how his work was. He was 27 years old and worked already as an art teacher at a high school. They had met each other last month when he was still at the university but now he had already graduated and worked as a teacher. He said that it was hectic since the children had other subjects that they couldn't concentrate on. Ri-Ta felt bad for the children. They were so young but had to give so much. They had to learn and be the best to go to a decent university.
