2nd Chances // Park Jihoon FF

068

"So what did you think?" My mom asked as we head straight to work after we checked the venue out.

"It was okay." I replied.
I was still a little off mood about the whole Jihoon thing.
I mean, I tried to tell myself that it wasn't a big deal.
So what if he isn't replying? Afterall he's not my husband.
I can't tie a rope around his neck, right?
But still, a little heads up won't hurt!
Communications, hello???

"Maybe Jihoon is just busy love, give a bit of patience. I'm sure he'll text you." My mom tried to cheer me up.
I sighed knowing she was right.
I shrugged this feeling away and we both finally headed towards the building.
I immediately went up to my office and started doing the works that I hadn't done.

*****

It's already 7:30 pm and still no signs of Jihoon.
He didn't even try to text me or call me once today.
What is wrong with him?
What the hell is he up to??
I couldn't take it anymore and decided to call him.
The phone rang a couple of times before he finally picked up.

"Hey."

"Oh hey."

"Why aren't you replying to my text messages Jihoon?"

"I'm sorry Seoyoon. I was too busy today."

"With what?"

"With work."

"Don't lie to me Jihoon. I called your office today and your assistant answered saying you didn't show up at work!"

"Oh uh-"

"What is going on? You better explain it to me."

"I'm sorry. I just really have things to do."

"What?"

"Sorry love, I have to go."

"Jihoon-"

"I'll call you, I promise."

With that, he ended the call.
Unbelievable.
I can't believe he would lie to me.
And for the record, yes, I did call his office to find out why he wasn't replying to my messages.
But I only did that because I wanted to make sure he was alright!
I can't believe he'd use his work as an excuse to ignore me. Ugh.
I placed my phone down and sighed.
Seriously, what has gotten into him.
He didn't go to work but Woojin said he woke up early and left early.
What is he doing?
H-He's not cheating on me..is he?

-

My mom and I started packing up to finally go home.
It was such a long day and I was so drained from overthinking too much.
I couldn't even focus on my own work.
I kept thinking about the things that Jihoon might be doing.
I didn't think he was cheating, I trust him. I know he wouldn't.
I just really wanted to know what the hell he's doing.
This is driving me crazy.

"Seoyoon!" I turned to look at the guy running towards me and immediately, anger boiled up.

"So you decided to show up." I snapped.

"Look baby, i'm sorry. I should've informed you." He apologised as he was trying to catch his breath.

"Hell right, you should've. I lost all focus thinking about you." I angrily scolded.

"I'm sorry. I'm gonna make it up to you tonight just please, please wait here." He said and left his phone on my desk.
He went and ran back downstairs to get something from his car.
Just then his phone rang revealing the name, 'Mina'.
I knew it was wrong, but seeing a girl call your boyfriends phone is never a good thing.
I immediately pick his phone up and answered it.

"Jihoon?"

"Hello? Are you there?"

"Whose this?"

"Oh i'm sorry I must've gotten the wrong number."

"Oh no, it is the right number, who is this and what do you want from my boyfriend?"

"Oh, you must be Seoyoon."

"So you know me?"

"Mhm. Very well. He told me all about you."

"Really nice of him."

"Well, it was good talking to you, but if he comes back please tell him I called."

"Whatever."

I ended the call and placed his phone down.
The audacity of that girl!
She dares tell me to tell my boyfriend she called??
'Oh you must me Seoyoon.' My ass.
The fact that he even told her all about me?
Which only means that they've been hanging out for awhile.
I can't believe this.
She must be the reason why Jihoon has been so busy to even message me.
I-I can't believe Jihoon might be cheating on me...
This fast?

"Hey babe, i'm sorry. I just had to get back there to get this." He came rushing to me with a bouquet of flowers.
I didn't say anything and just stared at him with anger.

"Hey..what's wrong?" He acted concerned.

"I don't know. I'm just tired." I weakly but sternly said before walking away.

"Where are you going?" He asked.

"I'm going home Jihoon. I'm too exhausted to see you right now." I answered.

"What?" He asked, looking at me with pire confusion.

"I said i'm tired and I want to go home. Sorry you had to waste your time coming in here." I bluntly remarked.

"Alright then, i'll take you home." He sighed.
Wow he gave up trying to console me that fast?
Just wow.

"No thanks. I can handle myself." I fake smiled.

"Are you sure?" He is un.be.lieve.a.able!

"Yeah." I said and walked away.
Ugh i'm so annoyed!

"By the way, you're friend Mina, called." I turned back once again.
Maybe this time he'll get the freaking hint.

"D-did she say a-anything..?" He asked, a little nervous.
At this point, I too, became worried.

"No. She didn't." I lied.

"Oh.." he said, feeling a little relieved.

"I'm gonna go. Bye." I walked out immediately with a heavy heart.
The way he looked at me all nervous when I mentioned her name.
Why?
Was there something he was worried about?
Maybe something i'll find out?
Why didn't he even try to explain himself?
Why didn't he even try to convince me to let him take me home?
Does he not like me anymore because of what happened last night?
Tears formed in my eye as I thought about it more.
but I tried my best to not let it fall.
I know i'm just overthinking.
Jihoon would never cheat on me.
I know he won't..
He won't..right?
