The Liar And Her Love

Chapter 51:

July'32
Taeri

I have lost a lot of weight throughout these years, but since it's taking a while until my work here is sorted out and everything I decided to actually start paying attention to my body.

The stress since the last few years have resulted in an immense weight loss, maybe working out may help.

Gymming takes a lot of part of my day and I'm comparitively more stable. I walked past a movie hall yesterday and I couldn't think about the fact that even as an adult there are things I haven't been able to do because I was forbidden from doing it.

I have never watched a movie in the theatres, my mom never let me. It was so much, so many ways she messed me.

And that is how I decided to start writing again. I used to write all the ways people have hurt me. But after she read my diary and I was heavily punished for it. I stopped writing anything at all, I stopped leaving evidences of my resentment towards her and that is messed up. The amount of phobias in sense unreasonable fears I have because of her.

Slowly slowly I'll untie the bondage and I'm going write everything in intense details. All of it.

Sept'33
Jimin

I walked out of the hospital at the end of my shift, it was evening and the time of sunset. Only to see a black SUV-jeep in front of the building with a slim figure leaning in a corporate suit leaning against the car, she looked up at me and smiled before she waved. Today I received a message from an unknown number saying this is Taer's new number with her own selfie attached to it as a proof.

And now I see her like this.

How long has she been waiting for me here.

I smiled before walking towards her.

"How did you know my shift would end now-" I sighed and bit my own words.

"You have people following me" I said looking at the two guys in a black suit in a distance trying to act as if they were talking instead of looking at me.

"I know your schedule" she said and I looked at her.

Has anyone tried loving her the way she loves people. Why was a lover compelled into becoming a fighter.

"I just came here to give you a ride back home since I found out you take the subway home because you can't drive due to sleep deprivation" she said and I couldn't help but smile.

"And also, you don't have to worry" she said and I was confused.

If she is talking about her ex boyfriend situation, ofcourse I'm worried. That guy attempted serious injuries on her.

"Eun woo won't cause any issue in Sarang's case. He wouldn't be able to, you don't have worry about any disadvantage that may occur by association to me. My legal team will annihilate that godforsaken law firm and we will make sure my relationship with him and acquaintance with would cause any harm at all" she said and I was stunned.

Stop it Taeri, stop putting others first.

Stop being so stupid, you are hurt, stop being strong. Only if I could tell her.

"And you?" I ask

"Pardon?"

"How are you? I heard what he did to you. Why are caring about the whole case beyond your own well being." I said and she was stunned.

There was a long silence, it looked like she couldn't breathe, or talk.

And then she finally spoke.

"Because that is who I am. I was raised in luxury and I'm grateful of my privilege but that's how I was raised, I was raised to believe I valued less, no matter what, it shouldn't affect my career and image or family name. I was raised to prioritise other's comfort before my own hurt. When everyone was comfortable, after that was when my own safety mattered. You can't unlearn your upbringings" She said honestly before taking huge breaths.

"Sit jimin, Sarang must be waiting for you. Your babysitter's working hours end in half an hour." She said and I sighed, I saw those tears.

She even knows my working terms with Sarang's babysitter but I barely know what went on with her.

The ride wasn't exactly silent, faint music was playing. I was looking outside at the sunset while she driving on the flyover over the river.

"This reminds of school days. Gosh I miss Taehyung now. I haven't seen him in so long" I said and Teari looked at me before she nodded.

I tried to lower the awkwardness, I guess I'm the only awkward one here.

The scene was beautiful and serene, the comfort in the presence of her is always lovely.

She was always Lovely
Perfection personified.
