AND THEN YOU CAME

6 회

Few days ago, my dad said that he was going to hold a dinner with Taehyung's dad and some of his other colleagues. And i remember saying that i wish i could reject next time, not only once.

Guess what happened? Today they're going to hold another dinner, and i'm coming. I didn't even dare to reject him.

Ugh, i hate my coward self sometimes.

I dont understand why the daughter and son have to join the dinner too. All they talk about is mostly business! I'm not going to be one of them anyway, so why? I don't know about that bastard Taehyung because as i remember, he's interested in this field. And beside, his father isn't even that strict if compared to mine. We should've switched places.

"Nam Jieun, are you done?"

I can hear my father's voice from behind the door. Rolling my eyes, i answer. "Ten more minutes!"

I hear him stepping away from my room, and i sigh tiredly. I turn to look at myself in the mirror.

What a beautiful, sad woman you are.

I don't put on too much makeup today, not that i usually do, but i can say that i look pretty nice already. I can do much better than this, but i won't try too hard. No when i'm not in the mood to meet Taehyung.

After the incident that day, we stopped talking. I think that's one good thing for him, because i stopped following him wherever he goes. For me? It sucks. I miss him a lot, but at the same time, i'm still pissed.

I'm just.. not ready to lose him.

After putting in the lipstick into my small pouch, i decided to finally go down and meet my dad.

"You look beautiful dear," my mom greets me, giving me a gentle hug as she notices my tired face. "Are you okay? Do you feel sick?"

I shake my head tiredly. "I'm just tired. Can i not go?" I whine.

"No. Now let's go before we're late." My dad replies instead. Tone cold as usual.

He's always been a strict father. And i hate that.

-oOo-

"Hoseok?"

My lips parted as i notice the man who greeted us. It's Hoseok!

"Long time no see, sis!" He put a hand on his chest, dramatically saying.

I laugh, coming closer to hug his taller body. He smiles, returning the hug with a tighter one.

We let go of each other after a while, he greets my parents with polite manner.

"Wow. you're becoming more handsome i see." My mom praises, not that she's inaccurate though.

Hoseok just chuckles shyly. "Come on, this way."

Inside the VIP room, dad's colleagues are already sitting there, chit chatting about God knows what.

And of course, the Kim freaking Taehyung is there as well.

He's gorgeous as usual. He's going all black today, which makes him looks hotter, and his hair is neatly styled to the side. Exactly a prince.

Our eyes meet as soon as i enter the room. I quickly look away, pretending that he's not there. But damn i can't do that any longer. I was assigned to sit between Hoseok and him, making me can't help but to acknowledge his existence.

Ugh.

The boring dinner starts, and the two guys beside me know very well that i hate this situation.
