Chapter 15: (your pov)
As I sat there, trying to process the shocking news that Aaira was actually alive, a maid came over with a cup of coffee and a plate of cookies. The cookies looked pretty, with colorful decorations, and one even had tiny flowers on it. But I felt like a fool for believing the lie for over 15 days.
I couldn't believe I had been tricked into thinking Aaira was dead and her child was gone. It made me feel stupid for falling for her deception that she created, can't believe I really thought she would quit writing. As I reached for a cookie, my hand shook with a mix of disbelief and frustration.
What was I thinking, believing everything they told me? How could I have been so easily fooled for so long? The taste of the coffee turned sour in my mouth as I thought about my own foolishness.
As I took a bite of the cookie, its sweetness only made me feel worse. Each bite reminded me of how easily I had been misled. I couldn't shake the feeling of regret for trusting them.
With a heavy sigh, I put down the half-eaten cookie and pushed away the coffee. I felt weighed down by my own mistakes, a reminder of the dangers of blindly believing in others.
I was standing on the balcony of the Library It was almost raining, my mind was filled with so many questions about where it is, the child ? And who is the child ? Is the child alive or dead. I was busy until a cyan coloured flagged carriage started to approach the big mansion. From a distance i could see it but I was sure it was coming towards our side.
The colour reminded me so much of him, choi soobin. So I don't know why I decided to go stand by the door and welcome the carriage.
As the carriage arrived at the castle, my heart raced with anticipation, though I couldn't understand why. The stormy weather outside seemed to mirror the tumult of emotions swirling within me. But as the occupants of the carriage began to emerge, my confusion only deepened. I heard the thunder of the cloud.
One by one, young men in their twenties stepped out, each with a confident swagger and easy smile. I didn't recognize any of them, until the last person emerged from the carriage.
Soobin? It couldn't be. It couldn't be him right ? But as I looked closer, I realized that he bore a striking resemblance to the Soobin I had once known. The same playful smirk, the same mischievous glint in his eyes. It was uncanny.
My mind raced as I tried to process what I was seeing. Could it really be him? My childhood crush, the one who had captured my heart so many years ago? The one I've always loved ? My class mate ?
Before I could gather my thoughts, the boys approached me, their laughter filling the air as they exchanged playful banter. But soobin was still standing at the edge of his carriage holding the door with one of his and leaning towards my side, he gave me a smile. He looks so royal in that attire.
Soobin: Hey there, noona! Long time no see.
He jumped in front of my eyes after saying that, it was as if he jumped on my heart which was on the ground after calling me that. Right under his pointy feets, His smile never left his lips. As he was standing infront of me, my eyes never left his.
It was the same height difference that I had with him, my heart was anticipating rapidly. Somewhere in my heart I could hear someone saying, What is wrong and what is right? I don't know, if you know please let me know. The drama of my life was unfolding before my eyes and I could only watch while standing there.
My first love was standing in front of my eyes after a month, or even more than that? But I couldn't do anything, I could only stand there and watch him like a clown. I could only laugh, I could not hug him, I could not rest my head on his shoulder, I couldn't hug him and cry. I couldn't tell him what was happening to me, I could only look at him like a clown. I have been missing from myself for a long time Let me know if I meet you somewhere. I couldn't stand properly it's a joke isn't it. Another dream.
