Eunji arrived back at her home after spending some times chatting with Hoya and visited Naeun. It's already afternoon. She slipped into her slippers and walked toward the living room, greeting by Key's glare. She let out a sigh and ignored him before placing several shopping bag and her handbag on the coffee table.
"Where did you go?" He grabbed her wrist, making her turned around and faced him. "Why don't you answer your phone?" She removed his hand from her wrist and walked toward the kitchen.
"I'm talking to you, Eunji." He raised his voice.
*It should be me who is the one to be angry.*
"And I'm listening." She replied.
"After hanging with a guy, you acted like this too much?" He pulled her closer.
"That's nonsense." She poured herself a glass of orange juice.
"You've gone since the morning and just come back now. It's already pass lunchtime. What have you done?"
"That's my privacy. Why do you want to know? Do you even care?"
"I'm your husband, Jung Eunji."
"Then how about you? I'm your wife, right? Don't you promise me not to see her in a year?"
"Uh..." He flustered.
"They said that 'Promise are meant to be broken.' I guess they're right!"
"I can explain."
"I shouldn't ask you to promise me when I know you can't do it."
"Eunji, I'm.."
"Stop stuttering! We've lived as a married couple for 6 months already. Just bear with me for another 6 months and I'll be the one who leave." Leaving him dumbfounded, she headed to the bedroom before slamming the door shut and locked it.
"Aish! What have I done?" Key ran his fingers into his hair in frustration.
Eunji threw her handbag onto the dressing table before throwing herself onto the bed. She shut her eyes and tried to calm herself down.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of key cracked into the keyhole. She covered herself with the bedsheet and pretended to be asleep. She didn't want to face him right now.
"Eunji!" Key called out. He sat down on the bed and looked at her figure. He knew that she just pretended to be sleeping. "I'm really sorry. It's just that Nicole has done something stupid to herself. So, I just..." His word stopped as she pulled the bedsheet to cover all over her body.
"Once again, I'm really sorry!" Then he left the room. She removed the bedsheet and wiped off the tear.
"Why should I cry?"
Key was in the club with Jonghyun.
"Something happened?" Jonghyun asked. Key didn't really like drinking.
"I screwed up." He replied and gulped down a glass of beer.
"Why?"
"I promise Eunji not to see Nicole in one year, but I broke that promise."
"YOU WHAT?"
"Why are you so surprised?"
"You hurt her again."
"I don't mean too."
"I don't understand why she still stands with you." He stood up. "If I were her, I would have divorce you months ago." Glaring Key for the last time, Jonghyun left, leaving Key dumbfounded.
"What's with this guy?"
