Author’s POV:

He was awake whole night as he kept on thinking about her. He was missing her badly. He just get a hold on himself as he didn’t want to just pop up in front of her drag her for apology so he kept on thinking to make up to her. As, the night was about to end, He took a walk and went to the bakery for breakfast and that is when fate held him in front of her. He saw that petite girl trying to resist and he could identify her from miles away so in an instant he found her trapped and harassed on which he couldn’t control himself. That morning, Taehyung felt so helpless. He stood there with clenched fists after seeing her with someone else and her ignorance of his presence was killing him inside. He couldn’t even imagine the pain that he has caused her that night. He couldn’t even bear her hand holding another man and he made her believe that he had sex with a girl while letting her succumbed to the whole situation.

“Jisoo, baby I am so sorry. Now I can feel this pain” He held his hair and talked to himself “You can hate me all you want but I promise I will take all your pain away even if it costs me my life. Just, for once let me try to win you back”.

Jisoo was combing her hair getting ready for her office when his face came in her mind. She took a deep breath and sat down thinking what is wrong with her? She hated him by all means but why does she feel pity towards him as he looked pale and weak and why in the world she had an urge to hug him and take care of his wound? She was being watched sitting perplexed in her own thoughts by Mrs. Jonas in Kitchen. She reached her and asked her by holding her hand  

“What is wrong my girl?” she caressed her cheek

“Why can’t I just get out of toxic thoughts?” Jisoo eyes were teary  

“Hmm” Mrs. Jonas took a pause “It’s all in your hand Jisoo. You will have to decide if you want to forgive him or punish him”

“I want to punish him by every mean but” Jisoo stopped and a painful expression came on her face “Every time I think of getting out of this relation, I feel myself numb. I feel like I am in a state of paralysis and that in both ways, either I stay with him or leave him. I will be the one who will hurt the most” She put her head on Mrs. Jonas shoulder and looked at her wedding ring  

“If you can leave him then just do it Jisoo as you can find happiness and you have all the rights in the world to be content” She assured Jisoo

“Mrs. Jonas , I was thinking that I am happy and I really was getting over with him but after looking at his face again I have found myself exactly at the same spot where I left him” Jisoo closed her eyes “I wish I could have died that night with Seo-jun “She trembled upon calling his name and cried silently

“Love can never be replaced Jisoo and you loved him” Mrs. Jonas rubbed her arm comforting her

“Can I tell you something?” Jisoo sat straight and looked at her

“I was so happy to have Seo-jun. He took care of me like I was some kind of a blessing in his life. Even when we kissed he never gave me a feeling that I was his and he can do whatever he wants but “Jisoo got silenced

“But what my girl?” Mrs. Jonas asked her politely

“But Taehyung was fire and water at the same time to me. I could feel secure from this world in his presence but insecure from himself as he touched me in ways like I was his property and he could claim anything” Jisoo wanted to share her burden today  

“What do you want Jisoo? You have to think on it? Do you want him or not?” Mrs. Jonas asked

“What he has done with me he has no right to be with me ever again but I think I am still not ready to throw him out of my life. I know I sound pathetic but” Jisoo said

“You do not. Give him a chance Jisoo in fact give them a chance and find out for yourself who do you want?” Mrs. Jonas said

“I can’t cheat him while he is my husband “Jisoo said

“You don’t have to. Just give a little chance to Eun-woo and if he is the right choice then leave Taehyung and I think you should move on as you matter the most” Mrs. Jonas smiled and left the room whereas Jisoo was standing in front of the mirror talking to herself “ What do you want Jisoo ? You will have to leave him! You can’t live with him. He doesn’t deserve you” She took a deep breath and left for work.

At Night:

Mrs. Jonas was walking into the restaurant and sat on a reserved seat. A slender male figure was already sitting there who hugged her.  

“My baby!” Mrs. Jonas hugged and kissed his both cheeks  

“I am sorry that I am meeting you after a long time” He kissed her forehead

“I knew that you are here but I also knew why you aren’t meeting me” She broke the hug and sat by his side

“I am sorry mama. “He looked in her eyes with same old intriguing eyes that remind her of his childhood. It was Taehyung as when he was just 7 years old Mrs. Kim got sick and wasn’t able to take care of him. He was too close to his mother that he stopped eating and become fragile. At that time, Mr. Kim decided to take his sister help but she was also a mother of 6 year old Woo-shik so he decided to take a very hard decision and send him to Mrs. Jonas in Paris. Mrs. Jonas had recently lost her only daughter who lost the battle with cancer. She was his guardian. That 7 year stubborn kid was practically raised by Mrs. Jonas. Taehyung went back to Korea after completing his graduation in Paris. So, this how Mrs. Jonas was being called mama.  

“You should be. This is not the way I raised you” Mrs. Jonas complained

“I didn’t do anything but that can’t be proven for now” He responded in a his usual deep low tone with a visible hint of guilt

“Do you? She asked  

“Yes, I love her more than myself mama” His eyes were teary

“You are in real trouble my boy” Mrs. Jonas sighed

“Does she love him?” He asked in an investigative tone

“No, Not yet” She said

“How much she hate me?” He sighed  

“She doesn’t hate you Taehyung. But I don’t know if she loves you. You both are complicated” Mrs. Jonas shrugged

“Thanks for taking care of her mama. I just want her happy “He put his head on her shoulder “I miss her so much. I didn’t know how someone could become your lifeline in such a small time”

“Sometimes a singly meeting is enough to fall in love my boy! But love is hard to earn. You have to fight for it regardless of the outcome” She said

“I am trying to figure this out “He said smiling  

“Atta boy! That's my son and remember you can’t give up. Now you eat! Look at yourself you look so weak” She hit his head lightly and they both laughed.
