Crazy Over You

16

Y

You know what I hate. I hate that I have to hide my engagement ring when I go out in public.
I hate that I now have been forced to work from home because these reporters are camped outside of my condo.

I hate that my boss thinks I should take some personal time till everything dies down.

I hate that I receive at least 100 hate messages via my Facebook and Instagram account from strangers who have no idea what is going on in our situation and I hate that I have to deal with this on my own till Saturday because Ryujin is on a road trip.

Natalie went to the press and told her sob story as she sees it. With Ryujin being the cheating asshole and me being her whore. Completely not what happened, but now Natalie is the media's little darling till Ryujin makes her tv appearance to set the record straight.

I had to explain to my boss what happened and talk about this whole embarrassing situation, but I love my job and I am damn good at it. Ryujin wanted to call him and explain herself, but I didn't think that was necessary.

Last night I got a call from Ryujin's mom and my mom to hear my side and after I finished explaining everything they were so mad at Natalie for everything.

Mina has offered to come over, but the last thing I want is to have her harassed by the reporters camping outside the condo building.

I have had so many good cries about everything and asked myself how it came to all of this. Sure I probably shouldn't have started anything before Ryujun had broken up with Natalie, but she was the one who started it first with telling Ryujin she was pregnant with her child.

I sit down in my office at home and continue to work on a brief that needs to get done. My cell phone starts ringing and I look down and it's Ryujin.

I pick up and put on a smile, "Hey Ryu."

"Hey baby, you look tired and like you have been crying. What happened ?"

"Oh the usual, random people attacking me on Facebook or Instagram and letting me know how they don't understand why you left Natalie for me. You know the same old narrative." I say.

"Yej baby, I am so sorry. You need to deactivate your accounts until this blows over."

"Yeah I did that today. Why are strangers so obsessed about our lives and why are they so cruel ?"

"I don't know baby, but when I get back home Friday night, I'm going to make it up to you." she says.

"Thanks, I miss you a lot right now. I thought I would have my work, but now my boss wants me to take some personal time till this blows over. She got what she wanted. She ruined me." I say starting to cry.

"Please don't say that. We are going to fight this and tell the truth. I don't care if I send Hanbin into shock but I am setting the record straight for us and then I am going to take you and walk you to nearest church and marry you right away." she says smiling.

"Thanks, I needed to hear that. It's just been a very tough and long week here." I say half smiling.

"Please tell me we are okay. I don't want to lose you because of all this." she says. Her eyes pleading me to tell her that we are okay.

"We are okay. You never lost me even when we were apart for 2 months. You and me are forever. I am just having a rough couple of days that is all."

"I know and I wish I could be there to hold you and fall asleep with you wrapped in my arms. I love you so much, Yej."

"I love you too Ryu. With all my heart." I say trying to assure Ryujin.

"When I get back I am setting the record straight and then I want to take you some where just the two of us. I'll talk to the team management and hopefully they'll let me take some time off. So think about where you want to go baby." she says smiling.
