Black String Of Fate

Chapter 41

Jin walked with Bang SiHyuk keeping his head down. He didn't want to show his face full of pain and distress. Bang Sihyuk sighed mentally eyeing Jin's posture, it was clear that the boy was extremely hurt and it was true. Hearing the men talk about what his biological father did, Jin felt floor slipping beneath his feet.

Jin took a few deep breath and halted looking at Bang Sihyuk who had a confused face seeing Jin abruptly stop. Jin smiled forcefully, "I'll be back soon dad. You can head back first. I have few things to do" he said and Sihyuk frowned, remembering what plans did Jin have. He sighed but let Jin be and nodded, agreeing to head back asking about Ami.

Jin informed him that he'd send Ami with him and they both can leave early. Sihyuk nodded and walked to his car, waiting for Ami. Jin before going back went to the restroom and locked the door, letting out a shaky breath. He walked to the sink and gripped the counter, screwing his eyes shut. His knuckles turned white from the grip he had.

He opened the tap and splashed water to his face few times. Breathing heavily, he turned off the tap and closed his eyes again. A tear rolled down his face, followed by other one and soon tears started pouring out. Jin tried to calm down but he couldn't. "I should've known. I should've known how much he hates me" he muttered angrily.

He breathed out deeply but choked on a sob, shaking his head he groaned, "You got disappointed again. They mean nothing to you and you mean nothing to them. Don't get hurt again, for God's sake, don't let it happen again" he said looking at himself the mirror. He felt pathetic seeing his red eyes but he felt disgusted at himself for even crying for the people who were nothing to him.

Another few minutes, Jin just focused on breathing and trying to forget what happened and what he heard out. When he felt a bit better, Jin looked at himself and sighed, wiping his face, trying to hide the traces of tears from his eyes. Clearing his throat, he smoothened his coat and opened the door, walking to Sophie and Ami.

Jin found the ladies at the place where he left them and saw them giggling and laughing together, making a smile appear on his face. Both the ladies were close to his heart and very dear to him. It made his heart warm seeing them get along. He wiped the smile off replacing it with his cold face, walking closer to them with soft footsteps, trying not to startle them.

Sophie saw him coming and smiled warmly. Ami frowned and turned around seeing Jin coming closer to them. Ami rolled her eyes, she knew Jin was extremely good looking and often felt that Jin tried to rub it in her face and right now, she felt jealous. Jin noticed her and scoffed, "Dad's waiting for you. Get lost" he said not sparing her a glance.

Ami scowled, "You didn't have to be so fucking rude" she whispered angrily but Jin pretended he didn't hear her. Ami grit her teeth, mentally planning for a revenge. She turned to Sophie and smiled brightly, "It was a pleasure meeting you. I hope we can spend sometime again but now I have to go coz my idiot of a brother is being pain in butt" she said sassily.

Sophie nodded with a polite smile but was surprised and glanced at Jin who shook his head, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Are you done? I can't stand you" he said tiredly. Ami huffed and turned around, purposely stepping on Jin's feet with her heel before walking away. Sophie gasped and checked on Jin, who was holding his feet with a pained face.

"That witch! I'll choke her with my own two hands when I see her" he stuttered painfully and Sophie bit her tongue, trying not to laugh. The relation between them seemed like that of cat and mouse. It was messy and childish but it was cute. Sophie helped Jin sit down but Jin also pulled her, making her sit next to him.

Sophie stared at Jin with motherly eyes, placing her palm on his cheek and Jin couldn't stop himself from leaning in, "I still can't believe you are here, in front of me" Sophie said sadly smiling and Jin pursed his lips, he didn't know how to explain. Sophie was curious to know what happened, where did he go, where was he from last 6 years but most of all, she wanted to ask if he ever missed her.
