THE SURROGATE MOTHER

Chapter 43

Two days had passed and now I get back to work. Yeah I took a two days leave saying to Dean I'm not feeling well. Okay I lied but it seems like that, I can't walk properly so it's obvious I'm not fine.

So thank God I finally fully recovered from that damn soreness.

And when Jisoo heard about it from Dean. She rushed to my house after school. I was nervous that time like what I'm going to tell her, that Lisa was too wild when we had sex that's why I get this soreness, the hell I won't tell her about my stupidity. So luckily I got a great idea. I told her I fell down the stairs so I got ankle injury, and thankfully she believed me cause she saw me unable to walk properly.

And anyway, I remembered everything that happened the night Lisa and I do it. I felt so embarrassed on how wild I am.

"Here are your students worksheets, Ma'am" Jisoo playfully said as she put down a plenty of papers on my table.

"Thank you, Jitsu"

"'Thank you' is not enough" She tells, smirking.

"Okay fine. A bucket of fried chicken"

She went to me and hugged me tight that I have to slap her arms so she would let go of me.

A bucket of chicken won't hurt, and I thought she deserves it after substituting for my absence.

After our little chitchat she left my office to get back to her girl's and have a lunch with her. Jisoo invited me to eat with them but I declined because I still have a lot to write, besides I have sandwich here, Dean gave it to me earlier, so I'll just eat this, after all, I'm not hungry.

As I was writing, I heard the door being open. I didn't look there maybe it was just Jisoo, she came back because she maybe forgot something. But when I inhaled the familiar perfume I immediately looked up.

"What are you doing here? Don't you know how to knock? What if I was changing and you just walk in?!" I coldly said.

"I'm sorry. Maybe if you find out I'm the one behind that door you won't let me in" He said, looking down. "Besides, if you're changing, sure you don't leave the door unlocked"

"Why are you here? What do you want?" I impatiently asked.

"Can we talk?"

"Aren't we already talking?"

After taking a breath, he took a steps towards me and then kneel down.

Okay I think I deserve an explanation so better let him explain.

"I'm really sorry Jane. I'm sorry if I lied. I didn't mean to hurt you. At first I wanted to tell you that I have a girlfriend but I didn't have the courage to tell you because I was afraid of losing you. Believe it or not, my feelings for you are real, Jane. I really love you" He fought back the tears that escaped his eyes as he said those last words. I don't want to believe what he said, but I saw the sincerity on his eyes.

"We're in a relationship for more than five years. But my love for her was already gone since three years ago. I stayed cause of sympathy. The day I wanted to break up with her because I no longer had feelings for her was the same day I found out she was sick, brain tumour. I stayed to take care of her, so that I could at least repay the sacrifice she made for me before. She abandoned her own family, the good life she had and the billionaire man who wanted to marry her, just for me. She chose me over those things, over her own family, because she really loves me" He is now a crying mess. He's looking down and wiping the nonstop tears coming out his eyes. I look away and restrain my own tears that coming out.
