HATE TO LOVE YOU (ENGLISH VERSION)

STUNNING I

Seungyeon sniffled quietly. She felt like something was choking the air out of her chest.

Feeling humiliated and judged unfairly, all her life she's been doing everything on her own and taking advantage of someone is something that would never have crossed her mind.

Passing through the hallway, JongHyun overheard feeble sobs coming out from the restroom. Suddenly, he felt a tug inside his chest. Each sniffle was like arrows poking his heart. He knew he was the reason for the pain.

JongHyun leaned on the side of the door frame and listened. Each sobs made his knees frozen for, drawn by the sigh, he mustered his courage to say something.

"Sorry, but this is the best for me and you. Right now, I can't commit, I don't want to fall in love anymore" Jonghyun sincerely said.

Seungyeon was dazed when he heard that low pitch male voice outside. She was surprised to hear that its resonance changes. It was booming while in argument. Now, it is like a smooth laconic tune that is soothing to her ears. Her heartbeat gets erratic.
She awoke by the sound of her bag dropping on the floor. Blaggg!

"Are you ok? " JongHyun's voice was worried
She gathered her things quickly on the floor and hurriedly put it back in her purse then quickly pulled the door knob.

"I'm coming in," JongHyun said.
Ooops...
JongHyun almost lost his balance at the sudden opening of the door. Good thing Seungyeons body got in the way and he managed to get his feet apart, preventing him and Seungyeon from falling straight to the floor.

Time stops. For him definitely.Their breath on each other's faces.
He felt his icy cold heart is thawed with Seungyeon's gaze, his blood warmed.

Suddenly lost in the galaxy feeling a volt of electric current spread in his entire body while holding Seungyeon in his arms.

His eyes fixed on those beautiful pairs of amber eyes matched with those tiny rosy lips...

"Let go" Seungyeon's voice was stern.

"What are you doing, let it go!!"
JongHyun didn't seem to have the desire to let go of that soft body wrap around his arms despite her struggling to get free.

Seungyeon squeezed JongHyun's dimpled face like squeezing a stress ball when she felt angry...

"Ooohhh, I'm sorry ... I ... I ...AAAHhhhhh." He was stunned for a while. Yaaaaaaa.
Seungyeon let go when JongHyun brought themselves back in standing posture.

"Yaaaaaa?!!!" Jonghyun was almost speechless, he was holding his chest, heart beats zooming than a race car. Damn, thank GOD this bear doesn't have a claw.

"What" , Seungyeon glaring at him. She tried to keep her composure despite her knees giving in to those stare battles awhile ago.

"Well I'm just trying to help you and then you suddenly open the door..."

"Excuse me" Seungyeon took his purse and quickly walked past JongHyun, not interested to hear his explanation. She feels suffocated and wants to avoid this person she hated the most right now.

"Ooh yeah, sorry," he found it strange that sorry is the only word that keeps coming out of his mouth. He quickly grabbed Seungyeon's hand. "I need to talk to you."

" Can you be a little polite to ask first before grabbing my arm.?" she gave him a contemptuous look and a curt tone while removing his hand

"Listen, this is such a huge misunderstanding. I acted like a jerk yeah but now you are being rude. You even assaulted me when I'm helping you. So aren't you the one who is being a troublemaker?! " His wit seemed to come back seeing the beautiful face in front of her. He is enjoying this little fight.

"Whatever", Seungyeon tried to walk fast but JongHyun blocked her way.

"Were you crying because you broke up with your boyfriend." Jonghyun continued with his annoying move. It is not his style, but he doest know why he suddenly enjoyed teasing Seungyeon

" Not your business Mr, so get out of my way" with graceful moves Seungyeon slid away to avoid JongHyun.

But the guy cannot just give up. He feels the lady is just fueling his energy to tease her more.

"Wow, this is my business because you are littering my house with your tears and snout" he naughtily grinned. He is totally enjoying it.

"This jerk!" Seungyeon glaring in her heart.

"If only he was not the son of my Dad's friends I would have knocked the kimchi out of this arrogant fool."

"Listen Lee Jonghyun-shi, soon I will disappear from your life. Don't worry, I don't like this either. And to be honest, you are not the type of man this opportunistic newbee wants. Next time you insult me or my parents. I won't let it slide!"

JongHyun wanted to take back all he had said a while ago. But it seems too late now. Each word Seungyeon said cuts.

Her glare is piercing. He doesn't understand himself either. This is actually a victory but "i felt like a total fool."

"I can feel your hurt Seungyeon, I hope we don't hurt each other"

"Listen, I know you heard what I said earlier, but you have to understand that because I'm not ready with all this. Please understand. This is not easy for me" Jonghyun explained, trying to convince Seungyeon.

"Oh you know I really get it. It seems like you got this idea that I don't deserve you. That you are afraid that I will use you. Because of the women who have hurt you before. Ha! Are all the women close to you have that kind of personality. Perhaps you have to evaluate your own quality. Ahjussie!"
Seungyeon marched down the hall like a queen leaving JongHyun stunned.

Wait ... whatttttt? "Ahhjussieeee?!!"

Dining Room

"Ah there you are..." Mrs Lee smiled

"Let sit here my dear".
Seungyeon gracefully bowed down, before the family and made her way to sit beside her Mom.

JongHyun came. His face is clearer now but clenching his hands. He touches his face that still stings from Seungyeon's squeezing.

"Aah, finally you come too Jonghyun," said Appa Lee.

"Yes we waited a long time for you guys, don't tell me you made a deal behind our back already", Mr Yeo added.

"NO" the new two found enemies blurted simultaneously.

Seungyeon had a slight smirk on her face. JongHyun was massaging his cheeks. Everyone looks at each other wondering what happened and then turns their eyes on the two.

"Arreseo, Let's eat" Appa Yeo exclaimed. Cha. He placed a piece of meat on Jonghyun's spoon and ate it happily.

Appa Lee caught something strange in his son's gesture. My Son looks calmer and doesn't look angry anymore. Did something happen?

"Jonghyunie, it seems the two of you have met." Appa Lee is trying to get some input.

"Ahhh right. You got a photoshoot in Songdoo tomorrow, right Seungyeonah, maybe Hyunnie here can drop you off. You kids can hang out together for some coffee after that" Mr Yeo said.

"I don't need Daddy, I can do it by myself. Anyway, I have arranged lodging in town so i can't bother anyone, we would be too busy"

" Why do you want to stay in the hotel my Dear. We have heaps of room here. We can accomodate you. So JongHyun can take you to your photo shoot location tomorrow, right Hyunnie " Mrs Lee replied.

"Alright Omma" Jonghyun replied flatly. He was holding back a rush of joy flowing inside.

"She will sleep at this house." Jonghyun's thoughts.

A smile played around his mouth.
