UNFAIR [COMPLETED]

Chapter 13: Trying To Avoid

[Zoe's POV]

I've been avoiding from everyone. Including Chen as well. We might share room as we're husband and wife but ever since he said that to me, I sleep here. The place where is a second home to me. Only Chanyeol knows this place. This is the only place that I could show my weakness.

I eat less these few days and I am restless. I just don't have the mood or courage to show my face in this house. Mother is away after we had dinner. I've been like this for 2 weeks. No one could have been bother me.

Yeah, maybe.

Sometimes, Chanyeol visited me. It's a rooftop room. Chanyeol and I create it. I'm not sure about Dahye because I don't really have a lot of memories with her.

Tonight, it's kind a windy and this place a bit cold. I think I need to take my thick clothes. So I decided went out. I held every each of the walls and carefully went down the stairs. I think he's not at home right now. He probably go to the club.

I remember every path here so the maid doesn't need to guide me. I can manage myself. That's what I've been doing for two weeks. I am just a burden to everyone. So why not being independent? 

I was about to open the door when I feel something warm. This is not a doorknob. Then, it's move.

Wait, this is a hand. 

"Seohye."

That voice.

"Minseok?" I heard him chuckled. 

"Yeap, it's me!!" I can hear his exciting voice.

I smile widely and opened my arms.

"What are you waiting for?" then I felt so warm. He hugged me tightly. "Awwh, I miss you a lot Seohye."

"I miss you too Minseok. Where have you been? You've been gone for years."

We broke the hugged and he squeeze lightly my hands with his.

"Yeah, I was in China and I came back for good. I am really sorry that I didn't attend your wedding. I've heard from Chanyeol."

"You're mean. I've sent you the invitation."

"I know. I really wanted to go but I've got a lot of stuffs to do back there. Look at you, you lose a lot of weight." he said.

Bad time. He shouldn't see me like this.

"Is everything okay?" 

"Yeah, everything is fine." No, it's not.

Minseok is my childhood best friend. He moved to China for 9 years. He's like a family to me also a big brother after Chanyeol. He's the one who have been taking care of me as well.

But, ever since he moved to China, we rarely talk or contact to each other.

"Tired being wife?"

I smile softly.

"I need to change clothes."

"Do you want me to help you?"

"Don't worry. I just need warm clothes."

"Okay, I'll wait you downstairs. Let's have some more talk."

I nodded and Minseok help me open the door. I went to my wardrobe to change my clothes. 

While I was changing my clothes, a click sound came from the door. I did lock it though so no one here knows how to unlock except......

"Zoe."

Chen.

I froze there. He saw me with half naked. I quickly wear my sweater. Both of us keep in silent. I need to avoid him. As far as I can. I quickly took my stick and walked out from the room. I could only hear my heart beating fast.

Then, I felt a warm touch on my wrist. I flinched a bit. 

"Don't touch me." I said coldly.

"Who's that guy downstairs?"

I keep in silent. Since when he cares about me?

"It's Minseok. He's a friend of mine." I tried to answered calmly. I heard him sighed.

"Good, at least someone still wants to meet you."

If I can see him, I would kill him with my dagger eyes. He's hurting me more.

"Thanks." I said and left the room.

Maybe I shouldn't talk to Chen or something. I went down slowly while counting the steps. I nearly slipped when a strong hand grabbed my waist.

"Wow, careful there."

I chuckled. I'm trying my best not to sound sad.

"Thanks Minseok."

"Anytime."

He brought me to the sofa.

"I saw a guy walking ahead to your room. Is he..."

"Chen."

I heard his voice again. Just go away from here.

 "Oh, I am Mi-"

"Yes, I know. You're Minseok, Zoe's childhood friend."

How does he knows that Minseok is my childhood friend?

"Great, Seohye must told about me alot to you."

I tucked Minseok shirt so he can turned to me.

"Uhm..."

"Are you okay?" Minseok said in concerned. He hold my hand lightly.

But then I felt someone's hand on my other wrist.

"Dude, she's my wife. I don't think that you can come near and wooing her." Chen said. I could feel his tension.

"Minseok, I need some fresh air first."

"Are you sure? Do you want me to go with you?"

I shook my head.

"I can come with you. We need to talk." Chen said and he grabbed my wrist tightly.

I'm trying to avoid him but I couldn't
