40. Wrong

❝ wrong ❞

It was a huge coincidence that he had some business in her hometown, Gwangju, and took her with him. They had already reached the city and were driving to her home. Jihyun was thinking of visiting soon and now she was already here.

"That Jiho was still rude to me even though I apologized to both of them, " Jungkook complained about her friend. "It's okay. It will take time for him to forgive you, " she assured him to take it in a cool way.

A few minutes later, the car arrived at the house. Her happiness to be back here after months was clearly visible in her face and without waiting for him, she ran to the house to ring the doorbell.

And the latter was the happiest to see her that excited since the six months was a long time, so he followed her with no complaint of being left behind.

The door opened wide, revealing the older version of Jihyun, her mother. "Hyunie, " she was pulled into a tight hug by Mrs. Song. "How have you been? I missed you so much, " the elderly woman teared up.

Of course, they were welcomed into the house, but Jungkook followed them like a shadow which was left unnoticed until her mother finally did. "Oh, is he that friend you were talking about?" she asked, fingers pointed at him.

"Actually— he is— Mom, I finally am in a relationship, " she blurted out, which became the reason behind a huge smile on her mother's face. "I'm happy now, " Mrs. Song exclaimed.

And soon later, an elderly man rushed into the house in a hurry. "DID SHE COME?" he shouted without taking a look at the scene. "I'm here, dad." and Jihyun rocketed to her father.

Sure enough, Jungkook was introduced to both of them and their happiness to finally see their daughter with someone was beyond the universe.

"When will you guys leave?" Mr. Song asked since it was obvious that his daughter wouldn't stay for longer. "We are staying for two days, " she said and pursed her lips into a thin line.

It was more than expected which made her parents happy. Then they decided to prepare for lunch with each member contributing to it. The house was noisy until they were done eating with the dirty dishes left on the table.

The younger ones cleaned them together after shooing her parents from the kitchen. "When are we going to meet your client?" Jihyun asked after they were done with it. "Tomorrow, " he answered.

The couple was having their sweet talk when they got interrupted by the older ones. "We've booked movie tickets for you two, " Mr. Song showed off a proud smile.

"But dad—"

"I know how busy your life is, so I want you to enjoy at the times you are free. Together. And you are leaving right now!" he convinced, more like ordered, her to not let go of this chance. "Also, no dinner for tonight. You are eating out, " Mrs. Song added.

"Mom, but the food you make is the best—'

"No means No, " of course, it was her stubborn mother.

Rejecting would definitely come off rude now, so they gave up, agreed with them and drove to the movie theatre. The movie choice was boring for one of them since their tastes were totally different from each other.

Later, at the time of dinner, both of them had an awesome moment together. It made them realize that there was still a lot of things to know and a lot of secrets to unfold about each other.

"Your mom and dad seemed really happy to see me, " he exclaimed and felt proud of himself. "It has been years since they have been asking me to find someone. I mean they even to tricked me to attend a few blind dates and arranged marriage meetings, " she ranted out about it.

"Does that mean I'm gonna get pampered a lot now? I'm ready for it, " he said in excitement.

"Sure."

And just like that, it was time for them to go back. "Mom and dad must have gone to sleep, but I've brought the key, " she checked the time and it was already pretty late.

On the way back, a woman interrupted them. "Mr. Jeon?" she looked at him with her narrowed eyes. "It's you. I'm sure you don't remember me, but I do. Hotel B, A year ago. You were damn good, " she glanced at the one beside him and tried to remind him.

That compliment made him gulp and look at the same person who started getting uncomfortable. "I'm sorry, madam. I don't remember you, " he apologized to her, who he assumed to be one of his one night stands.

"Seems like you found a better chick. Is that what made you forget about me? " she asked, implying to his woman.

That was it. The third one there was done standing there and listening to the nonsense, so she left without any word. "JIH!" But no turning back. "I told you that I don't remember you. Do you not understand?" he raged on that woman and followed his woman instead.

The sight of her figure present inside the car relieved him as he ran and got into it. He wanted to talk to her but was scared to do so since he didn't want to get into a fight again, so he decided to give her space until they arrived at her home.

No words came out from her mouth, leaving him there, she walked into the house and to her room. He silently followed her so that her parents wouldn't get disturbed.

There she was looking for something in the closet. "You know about my past, right? You know that I've slept with a lot of— I can't change that now even if I want to. But I've assumed that you accepted me in spite of knowing that fact. Am I wrong?" his lips turned into a slight pout when he didn't receive any response.

But they immediately curved up when she spoke after a while. "You are right. And I'm not mad at you. I just didn't like the way she talked and things she talked about. That's why I left, " she explained it.

"Phew, you scared me, " he complained. "I'm sorry, " she apologized.

Biting her lips nervously, she moved her one hand up to his hair and another one traveled around his neck, making a wrap. Since he was a bit taller than her, she had to take help of her tiptoes to get to his level.

Soon, their eyes locked together for a few seconds until his gaze traveled down to her lips and his knees slightly bent down to touch them with his. The touch was enough for both of them to move their lips in sync. It started simple but the intensity went up slowly until it started getting too intimate.

As a reflex, his hand went down from his hair and unhooked her bra. At the very moment, he realized what he just did and broke the kiss to step back from her. "I'm sorry, " he looked away and apologized.

"Why did you stop?" she asked. "I need you to completely trust me first so that you'd be ready, " he told her the reason. "I do and I'm ready. Please continue, " she requested and landed her lips against his once again.

Her request was enough for him to smile against her lips and kiss her back, unbuttoning the first few buttons of his shirt, before his hands traveled back to her body, to her breasts to give her a massage.

"Are the walls soundproof?"

"Yes."

The most important thing that was lacking in this relationship had been fulfilled now.

Trust.
