Lisa's POV
I am already at the hospital and doing my rounds to clear my head from the events for the past weeks. I just can't understand myself right now. I don't feel that I am broken hearted but I am sad. Maybe because I got divorced and my dream about being married just ended in a snap. It's both our decision and we ended in a good way but it still saddened me. You get me? I don't know because I feel happy at the same time that I am free.
I called my family after my divorce granted. My family understands as to why we ended our marriage but not my father. When I called him and told him about it, I can feel her anger towards her voice. To my father, marriage is not something that you can stop if you want to. He believes that once you are married, you have to stand by it. I can't just meet them right way because they're in our home country. They decided to go back there and stay there for good after I became a doctor. My family is in a business world and I am the only one who's not interested in that field. I am happy and thankful for them that they still support me even though I didn't follow their steps.
"Hey." I look up to see my ex husband in front me while I am sitting alone at the cafeteria. I decided to eat after my rounds. "Mind if I sit here?" He added.
"Oh. Yeah. Sure." I replied and smiled at him.
"Thanks." He said after he sat down. "How are you?" He asked looking at me and bite on his sandwich.
"I am doing good." I smiled sadly at him.
"That's good." He smiled at me. He stares at me like he wants to say something but hesitant.
"What, Jeon? Spill it." I asked him as I drink on my ice tea.
"Oh. Y-yeah." He stuttered and brush his hair using his finger. "I uh.. I don't know if I already told this but thank you for forgiving me of what I did behind your back." He added. And yes he cheated on me but I still forgave him.
"It's because I still want our marriage to work out. But I get it now, you're in love with her still. You just thought that you moved on because I made you feel what you didn't get from her. And I thought that I can make you fall for me by doing that to you. We both now know too that we just decided to get married because we were just happy but we were not in love with each other." I replied to him seriously. "And I know you know that I did it with Jackson too after I found out what you did but it's not for revenge." I added.
"Yes, I know. But I can't blame you too. We both felt that our marriage is failing. And I am happy that we just ended it good and we don't hold grudges towards each other." He said and smiled at me.
"Yeah. We're good, Jeon. If you think I am mad, I am not. Okay?" I said because we are really okay. It's just sad on my part that my marriage just ended. Marriage is just important to me that made me question myself if there's something wrong with me.
"And that's why I am thankful to you. We both understands our situation." He added as he finished his food.
"Yeah. I am mature enough to fix something that is already broken." I replied. "But my dad is coming here after his business trip. You know him so I am just giving you a heads up." I added with a tone of teasing him.
"Oh God. Do I need to lay myself on the OR table?" He asked joking.
"I guess." We both laugh.
Well, he really needs to ready himself when he saw my father. He admitted his own mistake when I talk to my father. The reason why my father is raging when I called him after our divorce granted.
But before we could continue our conversation, we heard the sound of the speaker where I got paged because I needed to the OR. We both stand up but I walk first after I bid goodbye to him because I am the one who's needed. While I am walking, I saw my best friend walking towards my way.
