My Downfall | Killers List #3

Fiancé

"Where are you going?" Yuju watched as Sowon rushed around the house to grab her keys and shoes.

"To have lunch with Eunha. I'm going to be late. I gotta go!" Sowon swung the door open and left without closing it, expecting Yuju to close it for her.

She tossed her shoes on the passenger seat and started the cars engine. She quickly slipped her shoes on while her car was heating up. Once she finished she set her keys and her phone on the side of the door and gripped onto the steering wheel. She quickly drove out of the driveway and sped away in a hurry.

"What's all the chaos going on down here?" Yerin scratched her head, standing at the bottom of the stairs looking exhausted and confused.

"Sowon...has a date with Eunha?" Yuju didn't realize it until now. Well it technically wasn't a date, or maybe it was but Sowon wasn't telling the truth.

"Well at least they are getting along again. But I swear to god if she hurts Eunha again I'm going to kill her" Yerin was already planning on what she'd to do get revenge if Sowon ever did something again.

"Wasn't it Eunha who cheated on her though? I'm sorry but I just can't agree with you on this one. I'm on Sowons side, Eunha was the one that messed up" Yuju was afraid of disagreeing with Yerin. She thought that sometimes Yerin would be angry with her if she didn't agree with what she had to say.

"Eunha only cheated on her because Sowon is a jerk"

"But what evidence do you have against Sowon?" Yuju was feeling quite bold today. "Also, that doesn't give Eunha the right to cheat. You should never cheat on someone" Yuju came from a place of peacefulness whereas Yerin only thought about revenge and how she could make people hate their lives for wronging her.

"Because Sowon is just rude, ok? She always called people names and never listens. She got what she deserved" Yerin rolled her eyes. She didn't like when people stood up for themselves, it made her feel weak.

"That's where you're wrong. I strongly disagree with you. And what you did last night was ridiculous and mean. Maybe you derserve to be punished for once. I'm sorry but you just can't act like this and expect no one to say anything" Yuju took a few steps back. She could see Yerins eyes flaring up with anger.

"Well no one did say anything until you came along. Why don't you go back to Europe where you belong, which is away from us. No one wants you hear anyways, even Umji hates you" Yerin fired back. She never expected Yuju to be the one that finally stands up to her, except for Sowon since she does it all the time.

Yerin stared at Yuju for a second before going back up stairs to sleep again. She didn't mean what she said but anger always got the best of her. She knew she wouldn't apologize either, it would damage her pride.

"Maybe I will go..." Yuju mumbled after Yerin disappeared up the stairs.

"Sorry I'm late" Sowon hustled into the building and searched for Eunha who she quickly found.

"You're right on time" Eunha smiled as she watched Sowon sit down.

"Thank goodness. So how have you been?" Sowon asked, trying to catch her breath from running inside.

"I'm doing great. My fiancé got a promotion so we're making more money" Eunha wasn't sure if Sowon would catch onto her words.

"F-fiancé? Oh my, I didn't know this yet. Since when? Do the others know?" Sowon tried her best to sound excited, and she did convince Eunha that she was happy for them but deep down only she knew that she wasn't happy about this.

"I know, it's amazing right? I'm so happy that I finally got to tell you. I haven't told the others yet but I can't wait to. I hope they will be happy" Eunha worried that maybe Yerin would say something hurtful when she broke the news.

"Who wouldn't be happy for you two? You guys are perfect with each other" Sowon wanted to puke when she said that. "So when is the wedding?" Sowon smiled.

"It'll be the day before my birthday actually so that way we'll be on our honeymoon on the day of my birthday" Eunha was evidently excited. It made Sowon happy to see her so happy and joyful but it also pained her.

"That's a really good idea. So when did he propose?"

"Just a few days ago. You know, when you get married you could do what I'm doing so you can be on your honeymoon on your birthday" Eunha was already excited for the day that Sowon would get married, if it ever happened.

"Oh no, no. I don't want to get married" Sowon frantically waved her hands. How could Eunha forget?

"I must've forgot or something"

"Of course you did. We haven't been together for a long time. Almost a year now right?" Sowon tried to keep a smile but it was getting tiring and difficult.

"Has it really been that long already? Wow it seems longer than that" Eunha fidgeted with her thumbs on her lap.

"Yep it was right after Eunbi's fake death"

"I forgot about that too. Damn I really forgot about everything in the past year. Maybe I have dementia" Eunha usually overreacted, only if it involved health concerns.

"I don't think so. You're still young and you seem to remember your...fiancé?"

"Fiancé, thats right. I know, it'll take awhile to get use to it. Once I start getting use to calling him fiancé I'm gonna have to start calling him my husband" Eunha snickered, feeling a bit uncomfortable.

"Yeah. That'll be even more weird" Sowon returned the awkward laugh.

"Well let's take a look at the menu. I looked at the reviews at different restaurants and so far this one had the best ratings" Eunha handed Sowon a menu while she grabbed one for herself.

"We should get some wine to celebrate the new fiancée" Sowon smiled, hiding the pain behind her curved lips.
