Jared's side of the story

                “Don’t worry…Its fine with me. Take your time there. Don’t hurry things up. You might overlook some things if you do…” Sandy said.

He called to tell her that he still can’t go back to Seoul. There are a lot of things to do and patch up at his work. There are new clients that requested for his personal work. Since the magazine cam out, many clients take their firm’s service. Also, there are still some finishing projects to be check.

                “Damn all of these things that ties me up…can’t even go to see you…” he said. It’s been three days since the he came back to Busan and he only talks to her by phone.

                “We could still talk like this and that’s what important…after all, I don’t even know if we could go out if you’ll be here because I’m also busy looking after Julian and the publication is asking me to come back as well…”

                “You must be tired….”

                “I could manage…”

                “How’s he doing?”

                “He’s doing good…in three days time, he’ll be out of the hospital.”

                “Can he remember anything now?”

                “Nope…he seems okay and I know that he won’t be like that if he remembers  anything…”

                “I see…”

                “How about auntie and Allyson?”

                “They fine. Anyway, they feel sorry for Julian after I told them about the accident.”

It took her a few seconds before answering.

                “Well, just tell them I said hello…”

                “Hm.”

                “Sandy “ He hears Juliann calling her .

                “Jared, I have to hang up now. It’s late anyway you need to sleep now and you’re still early for office tomorrow.”

                “Okay.” He agreed even though he still wants to talk to her.

                “Good night.”

                “Good night.”

He sighed as she disappeared on the other line. Three days and he’s missing her so much. Now distance is a problem. She’s in Seoul and he’s here in Busan making it inconvenient for them to meet. He’s going to be busy for the coming months and she’ll be busy coming back to work. Moreover, she’s busy with Julian stuff.

He let go of the pen in his hand and lean carelessly on his chair. Jaejoong shut his eyes tightly. It won’t work like this. He put his fingers on his temple. He feels suffocated with all of this piled paperwork that he’s working on. He never had a problem on this before but it’s totally different now. His mind is somewhere else.
