Obsessed (Jung Hoseok aka J-Hope/Park Chaeyoung aka Rosé) [Complete]

2. Light Grit

It had been three times since Rema had tried to reach Hoseok that night by calling him several times. She hadn't seen him for two days and didn't want Hoseok to blame her for not calling him often so when she saw that he didn't answer, she went to get ready to sleep. She tried not to worry too much about recent events. She didn't want to seem like the overly jealous and traumatized girlfriend because her boyfriend cheated on her. She wanted to show him that she trusted him and that she had moved on.

But the truth is, she hadn’t.

After rubbing a body lotion on her pale skin and putting on an outfit to go to bed she closed her eyes to force herself to sink but images of Hoseok confessing to him that he had cheated on her on their anniversary evening came back to her in mind. Of course she hadn't moved on, the idea that he could cheat on her made her question herself.

Coming home the night of Hoseok's revelation, she sat on her bed with her head in her hands. She had been crying for this fucking bastard. How could he do this to her?

Rema went to her bathroom to remove her makeup and wash her face. While staring at herself in the mirror, she noticed that her cheeks had lost volume. Her pale skin and dry lips made her horrifically realized in how similar she was to a zombie.

Maybe that was the problem. When Hoseok met her, her cheeks were full, her skin and expression glowed. Rema had never been fat, she wasn’t really skinny either. She was average. Well, that wasn’t the case anymore. With her part-time job as a waitress, her work-study training and her studies, she hadn't been eating three meals a day for a while.

She had to hang on that is why her coffee consumption had increased drastically which made her more stressed. She unfortunately rejected this stress on Hoseok who was doing his best so that during her free time she correctly recharged her batteries, but even if he was understanding for a moment, Rema's behavior was less and less bearable. She knew it and said she was going to make an effort.

Her first idea upon knowing about Hoseok's infidelity was to dump him on the spot after spitting out a few insults at him. But it all got mixed up in her head. For the past few months she hadn't been a good girlfriend for him. She was always tired and often needed calm, which was not really the kind of Hoseok who was quite noisy and chatty. She was too before, but her new professional responsibilities had greatly reduced these character traits.

She was changing, Hoseok didn’t like this, he seemed to get tired of the one who looked less and less like the girl he loved and with whom he was in love with.

Rema was aware of it. She promised to make an effort, but Hoseok saw no difference. They were still often arguing and everything was getting worse.

But everything was going to be alright.

She promised herself. And destiny was perhaps sending him a sign to tell him that his luck was there. Show her that she had finally managed to tame her angry and impatient character trait that was born from the mass of work that she had all the time.

Forgive.

Proud in nature, it is clear that her ego had taken a hit. She had always been told that she was a gift from heaven because she was beautiful AND smart. The day she met Hoseok's parents they noticed that her. Rema had a bright future, that was for sure, and Hoseok’s mother had joked that she would have the most beautiful grand children in the world. Knowing that she had been deceived while she was doing her best to make their common future possible by having left her ton of daily work and which was going to jeopardize her professional credibility, she could really have started hitting him.

But she still loved him. The little attention he had when booking a five star hotel for two nights and a cinema was proof that it could still work if she swallowed her pride for once.
