THE UNLIKELY ROMANCE [✓]

The Past Haunts...

"Eomma! Eomma! Take me up! Ha.. Ha.. Ha.. Appa don't tickle me!" The little milky voice cried with joy, as her father tickled her.

"Jagiya*! Leave her! Jin-Ae, come to eomma!"

(A/n: Jagiya is korean for 'Honey')

(A/n: Kim Jin-Ae! Just a reference guys!)

"Your eomma is asking to tickle her, now!" Jin's hands found her waist, as she took her little bum on her arms.

"The mole under your ears don't let me be normal!" Jin's voice breathed near her ears.

Rin turned her eyes to his...

"Jagiya!... Jagiya!.. Don't go! I'm sorry!" Rin's eyes teared up.

"Rin! Choon He! Dear, wake up! It's alright!" Rin's mother tried waking up her daughter.

Rin was crying hugging the coat in her hands.

She slowly woke up from her nightmare, taking huge gulps of air.

"Eomma!" She hugged her mother.

"Its alright! Nothing happened. It's just a dream." She patted her daughter's shoulder, gently rubbing her hands around her sweating cold back.

"Ma'am! There is someone to see you." Soobin informed Rin.

"Tell the person I will be there." Rin said, about to close the file in her hand.

"Soobin-ah! I told you to call me Noona when we were alone. Drop those formalities. I don't want another stranger in my life." Rin's voice reduced towards the end, until it was a whisper.

"Yes, Noona!" Soobin gave out a cute bunny smile.

"Better! Check out Mr. Pak's future proposal ideas, while I am gone." Rin stood up, moving to the door.

"Joo Hyuk-sshi! W-What are you doing here?" Surprise was evident in Rin's face.

She had just closed her cabin's door behind.

"Can I not come to see my lovely girl." Nam Joo Hyuk faked a pout.

"Yes! You can! Ha... Ha.. Ha.." Rin laughed, as she linked her arms with his, moving to the exit.

Jin's eyes froze at the sight, searching an answer in Rin's. Noah beside him linked her arms around his, placing her head on his shoulder.

JaeBum felt an unexplainable feeling inside him, a fire, seeing Noah's action. What was this feeling?

Yeonjun straightened up his back, a little uneasy.

Rin didn't want a cliché story happen. Being the normal self she was, she walked past the three, with Joo Hyuk's hand in hers.

"Ms. Rin! Wait! Can you explain what's your relation with the man. You are in your office hours, to idly walk off, if I might remind you." Jin's voice was stern, his eyes red, his face flushed with rage.

He wasn't even aware of the so called limp body clung to him.

"Jagiya! What's the matter with you? Let she take a break! She works too much. Haven't you yourself told that?" Noah spoke up with a smile.

Rin nodded at her thankfully.

"Who are you to say that? This is my firm! I make rules here!" Jin replied furiously.

"I will pick you up today. You can go if you are busy." Joo Hyuk offered, not interested to raise an issue for her.

Rin looked at her date's face. She could see that he was earnest. Thinking, not to create another scene, she willingly accepted this.

"Goodbye! Pick me up at 5, Joo Hyuk-sshi!" Rin gave a peck on his cheeks.

Standing there stunned, Joo Hyuk looked at her scrutinizing.

"Not going?" She asked, with a little bit of tease, creeping up in her voice.

"Y-Yes! Bye!" Joo Hyuk left, his heart warm.

Jin's fists were folded in anger, seeing her show affection to her date.

Pulling her hand, once they were in the hall leading to their respective cabins, he took her to the rooftop.

Reaching there, Rin pulled herself away from his grip.

"What do you want, Mr. Kim?" Rin asked angrily.

"Sleeping with me one night, and going around with him on the other. What do you think I am? A toy?" Jin asked, his rage increasing.

"Consider it a one-night stand, Mr. Kim! You was very good in bed! It was obviously a fling." Rin replied coolly, shrugging.

Jin pushed her to him, pulling on her shoulder.

"Tell me you don't feel anything when you are with me! Tell me!" Jin shook her.

"I don't!" Rin's voice and her face were very calm.

"Then why did you let me do that to you? Why did you cheat him?" Jin shouted.

Releasing herself, Rin replied, "Every woman has her needs. You just satisfied it, being my old acquaintance. And about the latter part, I will tell Joo Hyuk-sshi about that myself. I don't intend to cheat someone who loves me."

"Why didn't you tell me the truth back then? Nothing of this sort would have happened!" Jin's voice broke, as the cold angry face broke down into tears.

"Did you give me any chance after all? I begged you! I tried to tell you! You never heard! I lost my friends because of you! My cousins! I didn't complain, did I?"

Rin sounded like a dead corpse speaking. Her voice were cold, very cold.

"I am sorry, Rin! I just couldn't..." Jin pleaded.

"It's way over, Mr. Kim! You and I are nothing!"
Rin walked to the door.

Turning back to look at him, she said, "It ends here! I want you to let go! Please! I have a life, so do you. Marry Noah! She is a great choice!"

Rin left.

Behind the doors, Noah, who heard the whole conversation, shifted into darkness, as Rin opened the door and walked past her. A smug smile was plastered on her face. The victory was always hers.

She is just another Minsuh in my life! I don't want her! I want you! I can't let you go! I won't!!

Jin's shoulders, that were drooped, now straightened, in a firm decision.
