❝I know that you're afraid
I'm gonna walk away
Each time the feeling fades.❞
CHAPTER ONE
"Why can't you just answer his call?" glancing upwards at the woman I glared back, she can't possibly be taking his side.
"Are you my friend or his?" I spoke, my voice sounding harsher than I intended as her eyes widened and she steps closer.
"Well, he is your husband, Ivy-" her speech was again cut mid off as my phone rings again, groaning frustratedly holding my dress in my hand, whilst I pressed the phone to my ear.
"I cannot believe him," I muttered, clenching my jaws as Hara just rolls her eyes, chuckling half heartedly.
Making my way out of the hallway, I reached towards the exit door. With the moon shining brightly over my head as I sighed while tapping on the answer option. I clear my throat and raise my eyes to the dark sky, with its stars hidden away, the moonlight illuminating my pale skin, as I heaved for air to stabilise my shaky breath.
"What do you want, Jungkook?"
"What do you think?" he questioned back, his voice sounded rasped and dark and I swear I could tell he was smirking right now. I breathed out slowly pushing the picture out of my mind, I leaned against the wall feeling my heart beat loudly in my chest.
"I am hanging up I do not have time-I am at a business event, you can not be always calling me do you even care for my work," I snap, my voice sharp and alert as I caught someone walking towards me. So I turned making sure to be hidden under the dark shadow of the building.
"You are at an event?" he questioned, his voice alert as if the words were ripped out if his throat. Don't tell me the only thing he heard was just that I'm at an event?
"Uh-yes," I mumbled then mumbled no more, as I heard the sound of paper ruffling and zip opening.
There was a pause, as I pull away the phone from my ear to check if the line was still on but then I heard him, grunt something along with words fuck, shit.
As chewing my lips nervously I breathed out,"Jungkook?"
Then in his smooth, deep voice he declared,"I am coming to get you send me your location."
"What..no," I gasped out, breathless feeling all senses run out of my mind, as with no further speak of words he hang up the phone.
I seriously can not believe this man; how can he attend late night business events and I can not?
Pushing my hair back I walked back inside to find Hara talking with some woman, placing my phone on the table I sat beside her, as whilst talking she turned and stared at me questionably.
"Jungkook-he is going to be here to take me with him," making sure that the other woman was not listening I leaned in close as I whispered into Hara's ear her muscles stiffened as I smiled faintly.
"You must be Jeon Ivy-I am Choi Suzan I've heard a lot about your orphanage let me tell what you do is something remarkable," she spoke up, her eyes brightening up as a formal smile approaches up to her lips.
"I don't do anything it's the donators who support me and my children," I whispered softly, smiling a little.
"No-it's not just that tell me have you ever thought of opening a school for homeless kids and orphans?
Her question rose an interest in me as sitting up straight, I pressed my lips thinly and glanced back at her,"Yes actually I have, I am just looking for a partnership or even a sponsor," I think she liked my response as she stood up taking her card she extended out for me.
"I think my boss would like to help-he's great when it comes to this. Why don't you email him personally or I could arrange a meeting, here's my card call me if you're interested," she spoke, as I shook her hands and I nod nervously laughing a little as she left.
"I can't believe it-" Hara whispered as when I turned to look at her.
"Do you think I should take it?"
I whispered, as her eyes dropped to the card in my hand.
"Yes-definitely," I stared at her, feeling unsure as I kept the card in my clutch.
After pondering for a while I turned and murmured,"I think I need a drink."
Holding my head high and shoulders sqaureed I walked towards the bar, taking long strides, my gait calm but steady as I could hear few whisper of the woman as I approached the bar.
"Two double shots extra anejo chilled on the rocks, please," I murmured as the bartender noted my order before turning away.
Relaxing my muscles, I let my eyes wander with ease, the alternating flashes of dark and soft lights the throbbing pulse.
"Ivy?"
A puzzle look formed over my face as I turned, squinting my eyes.
Light coffee brown hair, almond eyes and pointy face. The man reached forward stepping into the light as it was then only I could recognise him.
"Hyunjin?" I questioned feeling a little unsteady as the man chimed joining to sit on the vacant stool beside me.
"Where are you ever since you got graduated I've not seen you around?" he asked softly making me tense as I turn licking the salt of from rim of my glass before taking a low, sip.
"Busy-" I tried finding more words but failed miserably as he smiled effortlessly making me feel helpless.
"Nevermind-tell me how's life are you happy?"
His deep voice reached my ears, as I stared down hardly at my hands.
What should I tell him; should I really say the truth. Hyunjin and I had history we dated for a short while he was my junior in university, and that was before I met Jungkook, and then things were different it was all about him only after dating three measley months we decided to get married and now here I was dealing with this mess of life that I have now, a very bored creation of my own.
I was finding it hard to be in his presence there were so many 'what if' in my head, I had a whole life in front of me and I threw it all out in just three months after meeting someone.
I was never the foolish one but love was for idiots and I was the biggest of all.
With tears dreading to fall down my eyes, my gaze flickered upwards and I found him standing in front of me, with a loose tie and messy hair, his coat hanging off his shoulders I found my husband, his eyes searching for me in the throng of people until they landed on me.
And then I realized that I am as close to heaven as I had ever been in my short life. I could feel the heat of him just through his gaze, pouring at me through my blue silk dress. And then something flash thorough his irises, as he twisted his neck clenching his jaw when he approached me. My breath failed me, as I felt my heart throb with a bittersweet delight.
Placing his hand firmly at the small of my back, he smiled devilishly at Hyunjin who have now stood, all alarmed as I nervously smile at him.
"Gentleman if you excuse me, would you mind if I take my wife with me?" Jeon's face didn't even twitch. Resolute his stare fixed at the poor man as I could tell how intimidating he felt around Jungkook.
And of course he didn't wait for him to reply, as lacing his fingers through my hand he pulled me along with him. His intoxicating scent filled my nose as we walked hand in.
No matter what I wasn't deluded, there was no point in denying the fact that I was drawn to him like a moth to a flame. That he was my husband, my destiny forever the only arms I would be running into forever.
