Get Her Back | JinJin (Sequel to Illegal Love)

7/

"I heard you're dropping out of school . . . is that true?"
"Yeah, I just finished the paperworks and all I need to do now is talk to him."

At last, the third semester came to an end. Winter break then came to those who loved snowflakes and a warm cup of coffee in the cold mornings of December.

This is the time when Christmas songs are heard throughout the town. May it be inside boutiques, malls, eateries, or even just on the car radio while on a family bonding. And don't forget the countless snowballs being accidentally thrown at you by playful children on the streets . . . better make a lookout for that.

The students also dread for this holiday to come, especially those who are already in universities. They wait for months to come home to their families to have real food to eat instead of the ramen cups and spicy rice cakes they buy at the nearest food stores.

All is well for everyone . . . except for a certain person walking to the men's dormitory.

Seyoung took this chance to talk to a person before she walks out of the school's doors for the last time. She thought that it was important to tell her plans to this person and what she would do after having the baby.

She stood in front of a door, a door she had definitely regretted entering before. Yes, she regretted walking inside the room of her child's father. But she can't do anything now, it happened already. And in that moment she realized, Jinwoo had expected what was coming for her: regret.

Her hand shook as she raised it to knock on the door.

Am I doing the right thing? She thought to herself.

Finally, she finished three knocks; she was having second thoughts whether she'd run after or stay frozen when the door opens.

But she had to be strong.

"I told you I don't want your stupid cello les— Seyoung?"
"Hyunsik-ssi . . ."
"Didn't I tell you to never see me again? You'll get me in trouble!"
"I need to talk you."
"No, I'm not going to raise that baby with you and I'm definitely not going to pay for anything!"
"I'm not asking you to do those, asshole. Whether you're his father or not, I'll be dropping out of school and take him with me."
"Him? . . . It's a boy?"
"Yeah, should've figured that out when I took an ultrasound a month ago."

Some of the guys left in their rooms eavesdropped through their doors, with one of them being a close friend of her brother.

"You didn't need to go to me to tell these, just do whatever you want, just never ever see me again."
"Tsk, not like I ever planned on doing that again in my life! Goodbye!"

Tears washed away the hatred in her eyes as she ran to the exit of the building, carefully supporting the baby in her womb. It was already obvious that her bump was big enough to see that she was pregant.

As she ran, Mr. Has-it-all guy followed her.
