November 12th

For the last few days, i had a strong urge to meet up with her again but i only could bring myself to stop in front of her apartment and watched her walking back from work. Last night, she came home quite late and my blood boiled when i saw her stepping out from Jin Hyuk's car. Apparently, he picked her up from work and they must had been out for dinner since it was around 11p.m.
I drove away angrily and i gave Jung Nam a call. Surprised to hear me wanting to hang out, he asked me to come over to a lounge and so i did. Casually dressed up, i joined him and it not surprising to see him surrounded by ladies.
"So, stranger, what brings you here tonight?" Jung Nam asked.
"Stranger?" I asked,"I want to get some attention from the ladies if you dont mind sharing, that is."
Jung Nam laughed heartily and placed an order on a few selection of drinks. A group of four ladies sat by my side and honestly, i had fun. With all the attention i get, i felt slightly happier. Around 1a.m. the crowd was getting larger and the lounge was packed with several after club goers. It was Friday night after all.
Moderately Intoxicated with a few shots of vodka and gin, i remembered scrolling down at my contacts list and stopped upon Hyo Rin's number. I could give her a call but no. Did i? I couldnt remember but the next thing i knew, something made me turned towards the entrance and Hyo Rin was seen entering the lounge, looking around apparently for someone.
I approached her, but miserably bumping onto quite number of people and i apologised immediately and i got some angry looks from them.
"Hey baby," i greeted Hyo Rin cheesily.
"Dont hey baby me," she said quickly,"How much have you been drinking?"
"Just a few shots," i said to her.
"Doesnt look like a few shots to me," she frowned,"Your friend called me and told me where you were. Seems like you wont be able to go back home on your own."
"Thats okay. There are quite a few of pretty ladies who would love to send me home," i said without any other intentions, i mean, it was true. All of them kept volunteering sending me home if i wanted to drink some more. Though they had a different agenda than mine, but, im a man.
Hyo Rin smiled,"Alright then. I'll get going on. Have fun, ajusshi."
She walked out almost immediately but i followed her from behind. Once we were out in an open space, i grasped her by the arm quite firmly, i think, since she was slightly wincing.
"What?" She snapped,"You should be going back in, you wouldnt want your ladies to wait for you."
"Im sorry," i said to her quickly,"I really am sorry."
"You should be," Hyo Rin said,"You wasted my time. Your friend seemed to be worried that you wont be able to get home on your own. But, so far as i can see, you wont be having any problems at all, i presumed."
"I need to get going," she said quickly and once again, i followed suit. Bumping into a few more people and some of them even cursed me. Hyo Rin eventually stopped, apologizing to them and took my hand. She lead me to a secluded place where i parked my car.
"How did you know i parked my car here?" I asked her, swaying but at the same time trying my best to keep my feet on the ground.
"A hunch," she replied,"Where are your keys?"
I spread out my arms and said,"Somewhere in my pockets."
Hyo Rin sighed heavily, and started digging each pockets with some difficulties. The jeans that i wore were slightly tight.
"If pda isnt illegal here, most probably i'd kiss you right now," i muttered,"Its hard to keep away from you, especially when you're standing too close to me."
Hyo Rin looked up at me, and i could see every strand of her eyelashes, and yes, she was that close to me. I leaned towards her but she pulled away, fishing out the keys from my pocket.
"Shall we go now?" She asked.
Hyo Rin drove all the way back to my house, even though she had never been here but it seems like she knew where my house were at. As soon as i got out from the car, she came to me, wanting to give me back my keys but i flung my arms around her shoulder and brought her in. I was half hoping for a snowstorm but it was impossible since it barely snowed since yesterday.
She squirmed herself free but i grabbed her just in time before she could walk out through the door.
"I need to get going," Hyo Rin said angrily to me.
"Oh no, honey," i said to her, holding onto her waist,"Because of you, ive lost my companion for the night. A few of them, actually."
"Well, you can go back there or give them a call, but i really need to go home," she said indignantly.
Ignoring her pleas, i forced our way to my bedroom and pushed her in, locking the door behind me and said,"I was enjoying their company before you came along. As usual, i was drawn to you. You expect me to go back there just to mingle around with some strangers who doesnt want to know anything else but the bottom line of my bank account? I just enjoyed their company for drinks, nothing else. Since you're here, why dont we spice up things a little?"
Hyo Rin apparently listened only half of it as she struggled to push me aside since i was blocking the door. I hugged her, burying my face on her neck and i mumbled,"Stop pretending that you're not drawn to me as much as im drawn to you. Your confession a few days ago kept replaying itself in my head, like a broken record."
"But it doesnt mean that you'd feel the same way about me," she replied, a little breathlessly,"The reason why you are drawn to me is just pure lust, nothing more."
"How can you tell?" I asked, kissing the base of her neck,"What if i miss you?"
"If you miss me, you wont be locking the bedroom door," she said.
"The only way so that you wont run away from me," i said to her, gazing into her brown eyes and shit, how can this woman did not know that every time she left without saying word, she took pieces of me together with her?
"Stay, with me, for the night," i added, unlocking the door,"Now, im giving you a choice. Whether you would want to stay or leave."
I moved aside, giving her enough space to open the door and rush out. She did, apparently, left without thinking twice. I sighed heavily the moment the door closed shut. How miserable i was, only God knows at that moment.
I laid in my bed, stayed awake until i drifted into a dreamless slumber.
