Clandestine

Chapter 18

Ji Hyo's POV

I entered the bathroom and turned the shower on. I stood still as i let the water run through my body and let the warm water flow. It feels refreshing to shower before i sleep. Tomorrow's going to be our last day. The day after tomorrow, it's time for korea.

It's depressing to think about those i'll be leaving. My mom, my brother, Tianna, David, the bridge, The diner with the most amazing croquettes in the world. I don't want to leave but I can't stay jobless and be broke the rest of my life.

I need to survive too.

"Ji hyo... You're dad called, he's letting you know, you can't extend"

Tianna texted.

"Okay"

i sighed. I can't complain, after all, he payed for everything. Gosh. I wore a robe and grabbed a towel i can use to dry my hair. i wore something comfortable. A silk shorts and a loose sleeves. I turned the air conditioning to 21 degrees.

"Noona..."

"Why are you still up?"

I slowly creep  into my brothers room to check if he's sleeping. And he's not. He doesn't even look at me because his eyes were so fixed on the laptop he has on his lap.

"Did you see this?"

He moves to the side and made enough space for me to sit. He opens an article and shows it to me. I must admit, the picture is killing me. All my body organs are crippling in pain. My heart is screaming: What is this? Am i going to die?

"Yeah, i knew about that."

I said It like it was nothing. Like it did not break me into trillion pieces. It's an article about Gikwang and his date with seolhyun for we got married.

"Did you two talk about these?"

"Yeah. And i was okay with it. Besides, that's just virtual marriage. It's not like he's going to ditch me for that girl"

"Well... She is Pretty. And Young. And Talented and very sexy by the way"

"Are you saying i'm ugly? And old? And not talented? And not sexy?Is that what you're trying saying?!!!"

"I'm kidding! What the hell? I guess old people can be really sensitive"

"Go to sleep!!!"

I threw myself in bed after i left Mino's room. Oh my gosh. Too cold. I pulled my blanket and covered my whole body and folded with my knees, almost touching my face.

I connected my phone to the speakers near my bed. I'm so in the mood for Hyorin's angelic voice. I literally played the song over and over and over again since its release. My eyes never cooperated and tears just keeps falling without my permission.

My life has been in so much drama that i literally cry when i hear something so sad as this.
