Use Me Please [Mature Content]

Chapter 28

Another week passed after that night of realization. Realizing where my place was freed me from any more expectations and burden in this supposed relationship with Park Seo Joon and that week was a little easier to manage than the previous ones.

I didn't bother checking my phone as much anymore, which meant less heartache when it came up empty when I did bother to check it. Other time, I would spend my time simply working and going home alone, after I insisted for the driver to not come to pick me up anymore stating that I want my space and wish to be respected. Obviously, that wasn't easy to achieve, seeing that he receive their payroll from Park Seo Joon and not me. I realized the black Merz still park at my apartment and hotel whenever I walk out, but I decided that they can tail me all they want as long as I live my own pace. So I now had a bodyguard AND a car tailing me wherever I went. 

So one can possibly imagine my surprise to see Park Seo Joon standing across me when I came down from my apartment today. I wasn't expecting him anytime soon, thinking that he will probably message or call me before he actually visits again. Obviously, I was wrong.

Standing strikingly handsome leaning on the pillar, I notice a bright smile beam across his handsome face when he saw me walking towards him.  Although the dark eyebags are clear to be seen under the broad sunlight, he seems to be in a great mood.

"Haeryn"

He had said as I find myself beaming from ear to ear and running right towards him as soon as I notice him and hugging him as tightly as I could. It was as if all the frustration and fear I felt in his absence was gone with him back with me.

'Park Seo Joon, why didn't you call me?'

Crying out loud, I hear his chuckle as his hands pat my head softly trying to calm me down. 

"I'm sorry, I came as soon I could..."

I heard him whisper, his hands still tightly wrapped around me. 

'I hate you'

Shaking my head to disapprove his words and punching his chest as hard as I could I realize that I still am reluctant to let him go as I still made sure my hands held onto him.

"I'm sorry Haeryn, I really am..."

'I hate you so much'

I muttered again, my tears now uncontrollable. Wiping my tears on his shirt, I hear him chuckle again as his hands came to hold onto my chin and nudge my face forward before leaning in to kiss me and I surrendered almost immediately, kissing him back as passionately as I could.

"I love you"

I thought I heard it in the midst of our kiss. My lips froze as I open my eyes to look at him. Was he too caught up in the emotions? Did he mistakenly said it? Did he really mean it? The three words that had tortured me for the past month...did he just say it to me?

'What did you just say?'

Pulling away from the kiss, I look him in the eye. I could still feel tears still dripping down my cheeks. My heart beat so fast I thought it would drop off any moment. What if I heard it wrong? What if he said something else? Will I be disappointed again?

"I say, I love you Haeryn"
