"I'm sorry, I can't have dinner with you later. Let's just see each other tomorrow, I love you." I said to my crush.

"Okay, I love you too." He replied.

I hurriedly left the building, since the man who is taking my happiness away, was already waiting for me outside.

"Get in, my dear." Seokmin smiled.

I scoffed, while I got inside his car. "Oops, don't forget your seatbelt." He went closer, so he could fasten my seatbelt for me.

"I have a date tomorrow and I will go. Don't bother waiting for me." I plainly said, as I looked outside.

"Tsk, Jeonghan again? Did you already forget who I am?"

"I love him, not you." I tried saying, but he laughed.

He drove to his house, where I am currently staying at. That is not where I belong. Arriving at 'our' house, I did not dare talk to him because there is nothing to really talk about with him.

I went straight to sleep, without eating or even changing my clothes. Since I share the same bed as Seokmin, I'd rather sleep first so that I don't have to see his face when I sleep.

"Aigoo, this girl is so stubborn."

I went to work really early, so that I get to escape from Seokmin and I could see Jeonghan. Luckily, he arrived early.

"Are you free tonight?" He asked, coming towards to me.

"Yes, I'm free. We can go out later, if no one will interrupt us."

I hugged him tightly, not wanting to let go. He hugged back and pulled me closer to him. If only we could stay like this forever. If only Seokmin didn't do what he did to me, Jeonghan and I would live peacefully.

When our shifts were over, we went to a restaurant which Jeonghan wanted to go. I smiled as he held my hand and ordered for both of us.

"Oh, you ordered my favorite food. You still remembered?" I looked at the food, as I was excited to eat already.

"Of course, how can I forget?" He showed me his smile that I really love.

We were both eating happily, when I received a text. ~도겸: Where are you? It's getting late, let's go home. I'm waiting outside the restaurant.~

I sighed loudly and Jeonghan noticed. "What's wrong, y/n?"

"Thank you for this date, but I have to go now. It's getting late and we still have work tomorrow. See you, Jeonghan." I kissed him on the cheek.

Standing up, I walked outside the restaurant and saw Seokmin's car in front. The same thing happened just like yesterday. Driving home, not changing clothes and going to sleep right away.

Another day of work and another day of seeing my crush, Jeonghan. I thought that it would just be a normal day, but something about him was off. It seems that he was bothered by something.

"Is something bothering you?" I glanced at him.

He suddenly held my shoulders, "Why are you always leaving early whenever we hang out? You can't even go sometimes. Are you hiding something from me?"

I hesitated to reply, "I-it's not like that, Jeonghan. It's just that I'm busy at home, I have other things to manage. You know that I love you, no one else."

Jeonghan brought his lips to mine and kissed me gently. I really love this guy. I didn't want this to stop, neither does he, but someone wanted it to.

"Ehem, what are you two doing?" We pulled away and looked at the man.

"Dokyeom, you need something?" Jeonghan asked his friend.

Seokmin just laughed and pulled me away from Jeonghan. "Yes, I do. I need y/n and I need you to stay away from her. Don't ever try to take her away from me again."

"I didn't take her from you, she was never yours." Jeonghan said.

"Same goes to you." Seokmin pushed him away from me this time.

He pulled me out of the building and brought me home. Seokmin wasn't happy anymore, he was done with Jeonghan. He was done with letting you flirt with him.

He slammed the door of his house and pulled his hair harshly. "What's wrong with you?" I questioned.

"I don't know, y/n. What's wrong with you? You clearly know that I allowed you to go out with him, but kissing him? That's too much. You can't go with him anymore."

"I don't love you, I love Jeonghan. Stop bothering my life, please. If only you didn't do what you did, we wouldn't be fighting like this everyday." I crossed my arms, anger building up.

He punched the wall beside him and it looks like he was really angry. No doubt, he was beyond pissed by now.

"Why can't you just love me? I paid thousands of money so that I can marry you, but this is what you do to me? Was the money not enough for your family?" He spoke softly, as if he was about to cry.

I looked at him with no emotions, "My family is selfish, they accepted money for themselves which cost me my whole life. Out of all the people around you, why me?"

He was breathing loudly, while looking at me with anger in his eyes.

"I'm sorry if your family is selfish, but I really love you. What other reasons do I need?"

I stared at him, feeling hurt. My heart tells me that I love Jeonghan and my head also tells me that I love Jeonghan. If I love someone, he's the only one that matters to me.

"Money can't buy love, but money can buy marriage. However, that doesn't mean that I should love you. I don't need money from you, so let's just get divorced." I said, before walking away to our shared bedroom.

I couldn't sleep, so I used my phone to keep me entertained. Seokmin still didn't come in, since the incident awhile ago. I just stayed there, not caring to wait for him.

I was about to go to sleep, when the door was suddenly opened by Seokmin.

"Are you drunk?" I asked, as he stumbled towards the bed.

He fell down beside me and I can smell the alcohol from him. I pushed him, so that he could sleep comfortably. That wasn't a good idea because he held my arm and pulled me down towards him.

"~y/n, don't go. A-are you not happy to m-marry me? Why does my w-wife hate me so much? I am such a b-bad husband, I didn't treat her good enough." He slurred.

I listened to his words, while I am in his arms. Honestly, I got worried by him getting drunk this late at night. I noticed how he meant his words because he embraced me so tightly.

Seokmin, it's not your fault. I am the bad wife because I loved someone else. I hated you because you made a boundary between Jeonghan and I; but instead, I just made a boundary between you, my husband, and I, your wife. A boundary between our love.
