After that night Haein  and Krystal  began having an affair. They went out on dates and she usually spent some
nights at his house. He barely called
Jisoo because he felt that he didn't
need her and was having second
thoughts about their relationship.



He now doubted if he ever loved her
or maybe he just jumped into a new
relationship because he was hurt in the previous one. Now that he had sorted things out with Krystal, he began thinking of a way to make Jisoo  understand that he didn't love her anymore.





Jisoo, on the other hand, was worried
about Haein. It's been a month now and she hardly received any calls from him even if she tried calling he wouldn't pick her calls or he'd tell her he was busy and would call her later which he never did. She became worried, wondering if he was upset with the fact that she had stayed too long with her mom. Not being able to know how he felt made Jisoo  restless. Her mom noticed her sudden behavior change and was worried about her.


"Jisoo, honey. What's wrong with
you?"



Jisoo didn't know if she should tell
her mom about it or just came up with some other excuse as to why she was this way.


"Talk to me, honey." Her mom insisted.


Then Jisoo  decided to tell her.


"I don't understand, mom. Haein  doesn't call like he used to and whenever I try calling him, he always ends up saying that he is busy with work."


"When you say he barely calls you and then you end up calling him, honey does he even call you at all?... Make it clear to me."



Jisoo knew that her mom would judge
Haein  or preferably her if she told her that he didn't call her anymore and that she was the one doing the calling now.


Her mom took a deep sigh.


"Based on you  the looks of it, he doesn't call you anymore," she said while looking skeptically at Jisoo .


Jisoo  lowered her head in shame
because her mom could read her and
she hated it.


"Maybe, he's busy like he says he is... I
shouldn't doubt him right?"



"When you told me you were busy with work and that was the reason why you barely called me, I knew I would be a third wheel in your relationship if I pressured you to call me more often because I didn't want to believe you, even though you might have been busy."


Jisoo  wondered where her mom was
going with this.


"I know how much you love and trust Haein  and would want to give him the benefit of the doubt like I did to you, but honey, there is no way in this world that Haein  should be too busy to call his fiancée... I mean he did it when you first arrived here, so what's so hard now?"


"What are you trying to say, Mom?"


"What I'm trying to say, Jisoo is Haein
doesn't love you like he says he does.
You're supposed to be his priority...
Besides, the company belongs to the
both of you, so if he feels like using
the company as an excuse then he's
supposed to fill you in on what's
happening in the company that has
got him so occupied."


Her mom was right, Jisoo thought
to herself but she couldn't think of
another reason why Haein  had stopped calling.


"Maybe something came up," Jisoo
said still trying to defend Haein's actions.


"Yeah. He must be really busy." her
mom replied with sarcasm in her
voice.


"Don't do well too much on that, okay? You have better things to worry about." her mom suggested.


"Mom, he is my fiancé. It's normal for
me to worry about him... I have no idea if he's okay or not."




"He never said he wasn't fine." her
mom replied while rolling her eyes at
what Jisoo just said.


"Can you just change the subject,
honey, so we don't end up arguing?"
Jisoo's mom suggested.



"So, how's Chaeyoung?"


Jisoo blushed at her mom's question,
knowing that her mom would stop
at nothing to make her see Chaeyoung  the same way she used to before.



"She's fine, Mom. You should know
that."


"Why would I? I mean you're the one
who has been in touch with her these
days,"


"Fine, if you say so. I already gave you
the answer to that."


Her mom smiled at her daughter's
sudden embarrassment when she
brought Chaeyoung  up. She was glad she could change her dampened mood.



Jisoo  and her mom spent the rest of
the day talking about random things
before going to bed that night.
