Chapter 13*

"Do you love my daughter?" Sooyoung's father asked me in his most serious tone.

Today we are in his office because he wanted to talk to me. I don't know how he knew my number because Sooyoung is not close to him so Sooyoung is not the one who gave him my number.

"Yes, sir. So much." I told him.

"Then leave her."

It hit me one big time.

"Po?" I asked him again, maybe I misheard what he said and I wanted to make sure that it's not what he said.

"Leave her." Pang!

"With all due respect, Sir. Why? Why should I leave her?" I asked him man-to-man. We are talking about the girl I love here.

"She's engaged." Impossible.

"To whom, Sir?" I asked.

"Park Chanyeol." Another bang!

"Who made the arrangements, Sir? This is impossible, arranged marriage is no-"

"Leave her." He repeated it, and it feels like i'm being pierced right through my heart.

"You said that you already know that Chanyeol's brother is having a complication and he wants Sooyoung to come with them. Sooyoung will also become an artist soon, but you already left the artist industry, so both of you must not meet ever again." He strictly told me and he had no reactions at all.

He is emotionless and a robot, I guess.

"Sir-"

"No more conditions."

"Okay. But can you just give this to her? This my graduation gift to her." I told him.

"Why don't you give it to her personally?" He asked me.

"I don't want her to see me cry and of course I don't want to see her cry." I told him, my voice almost broke. I will cry soon, I can feel it.

"Okay. But i'm giving you time, until graduation." Her dad said and he stood up quickly and left me in his office, dumbfounded.

I can't do this anymore. It's too painful. I don't want to leave her. I'm not even planning to leave her. Why is this even happening all of a sudden? I don't know what to do.

I am so broken.

[GRADUATION DAY]

I went inside the comfort room before entering the auditorium. The day has come. The last day of seeing, Choi Sooyoung.

I have arranged everything. I talked to Chanyeol, Sooyoung's mom, and to my parents. My parents are not in favor of what I did but they have nothing to do with it because everything has been set before I told them everything.

Sooyoung might hate me, but I need to do this. I am regretting everything that I did, but I need to do this. I just need to trust that fate will bring us back together, again.

"I hope everything will be fine today." Sooyoung's dad appeared at my back and I was bit shocked.

I bowed to respect him.

"Is everything set?" He asked me.

"Yes, sir." I told him.
