The Day (Diyue )

22: South Korea

Shen Yue's POV

I finally land in South Korea and the whole place just seemed like it had been years ago.

I hadn't been back here in years, my Auntie Sue, she was my mom's sister.. she meet her husband here when my mom and dad would come down to visit , she loved Busan so much she decided to stay with him.

Soon the taxi comes to a stop and I'm in front of the apartment building.

"Thank you so much", I say in Korean and the taxi man smiles nodding I grab my suit case from the back of taxi and he drives off.

What number was it again? .. #219

Soon I am front of number 219 and I knock on the door, I hear shuffling until the door finally opens revealing my dear Auntie Sue, she hadn't changed much since I had last seen her except some of her hair was slightly grey.

She smiles and pulls me in for a hug. "Finally , my girl decides to be selfish and come see me, how has my baby girl been!?"

I swallow the lump in my throat, no more crying, I promised to not cry anymore... all I had done was cry lately.

"I've been through hell and I needed an escape, Busan was the way , although to be honest my therapist would be proud of me , I never thought I would willingly step foot in South Korea again"

"Finally!! , you've started therapy , now come in, make yourself at home"

She pulls away and guides me in closing the door.

The room itself was beautiful and screamed Auntie Sue... "it's the same way I remember it, yellow and bright"

She nods. "You know me , this old woman loves her yellow , so take a seat , want something to drink?"

"Sounds good, water!"

Auntie Sue disappeared and comes back holding two glasses and a soju and beer bottle.

"You look like you could use something strong , food will be here soon , ordered you favorite Korean dish"

"Korean fried rice ? and Tteokbokki , you spoil me auntie Sue... I'd love to drink with you but I'm pregnant!",I laugh and I remove the foil from the food.

Her eyes widen looking down at the small bump and nods. "I'm going to be Grandma Auntie!!"

I open the chopsticks handing them to her splitting them in half.

"Baby , you are still so selfless quit taking care of others , worry about yourself please!"

I shake my head. "That's just it , I can't be selfish even if they've hurt me"

I wrap my arms around her and she hugs me tightly , "I wish I had a kid like you , but this woman gave them up"

I look up noticing her look upset , she always talked about how mom and her were pregnant at the same time but my grandma made her give up the baby because she was so young and literally reckless.

She gave her love to a stupid eighteen year old guy who played with her young heart.

She only thirteen and half, had her/he at fourteen, that's why Auntie Sue would get upset each time Wynter and I came to South Korea... especially me , I would've been her age.

Mom was a lot older than Auntie Sue , she was a whole decade older.

"Let's eat , and not get sad, dance to Red Velvet and sing out her out to Taeyeon!"

I nod, always looked forward to spending quality time with my young Auntie.

"Aish , Baekhyun is so talented and
handsome!", Auntie Sue drunkly laughs and drinks her glass of wine.

"Definitely, but Jongin , leaves me speechless... when will Exo have a comeback", I groan.

Auntie shakes her head. "Who knows , Chanyeol is enlisting on the 29 of March , sadly!"

"Oof I've been so busy lately I haven't caught up much in kpop , and when you told me , my heart broke in two , he was my first exo bias !"

Auntie Sue sits up laughing. "My niece is definitely my best friend! , come here"

I laugh setting the full glass of wine down, I had a high drink tolerance when it came to drinking, but i was indeed pregnant... but Auntie Sue got so drunk she forgot about it.

I wrap my arms around her, "let's get you to bed, it think you've had enough wine and crying over Baekhyun!"

"Isn't it funny!, my husband name is so similar to Baekhyun.. Baekso, I always laugh about it!"

I stand her up putting her arm around me walking her to My Uncle and Hera bedroom.

"I want a baby, but I'm old now , I can't do that anymore, he's so young and I fear he'll leave me one day because he'll want someone younger"

I set her down on her bed covering her with the blanket.

"You crazy Noona , I'd never leave you, and your not old"

I look over at the door way finding my Uncle, or oppa as he said to call him since he was only twenty nine.

"I am thirty eight! , that's so old.. we'll never have a kid at my age"

He shakes his head coming closer to Aunt. "So what, we'll try , quit distancing yourself from me, after all we could adopt!"

"I'm old", she cries.

I decide to leave and give them some alone time.

I head to the guest room where my suit case was, grabbing my phone.

I peel off my shirt and notice my bump, it's actually there now, the baby is actually growing.. and I'm growing attached to it sadly along with their dad.

"I shouldn't talk to you or get use to you, I'm sorry, for being so weak and I'm sorry for everything I've already put you through , you'll be okay! , soon enough I'll take some time to rest here and go back to Shanghai stronger for the sake of your dad", I head to mirror snapping a photo of me.

I didn't want to talk to him yet but it was about his baby, and he needed some kinda update for the baby.

Dylan , I'm sorry for leaving so suddenly, I needed some space to heal, baby is ok 👍🏻

I was still hurt , but I'd be okay.... from now on , my relationship with him would strictly be at surrogate level no friendship , no feelings .. even though they were indeed there.
