CHAPTER 7

Author`s note: Just to show that I didn't fully abandon this. I love you guys. Everyone has been immensely sweet and patient with me, and my only way to show my gratitude to that is by writing more. So, I will try for a more sincere approach with much less delays. This chapter is in Yi Jeong`s …

So, he went a bit overboard with things. 'Really Yi Jeong? Only a bit?'This sensible mental conscience is not his best friend today but okay he took it maybe a tad too far. 'A tad?' Okay. Okay. A lot. However, in his defence, melodramatics and overreaction has become a part of his personality ever since Ga Eul came in his life. She brought out the worst and best side of him. So maybe he wasn't thinking straight when he barged into that Jae Sun`s house at night but what he told him was true. As in what he wanted to be true and also what he planned to make true at all cost.

Ga Eul was his. Now the dilemma was to convince Ga Eul to see the truth. She knows it, he was sure of it. But she was being conscious. And rightly so. That was also a fruit of his immature actions. He is willing to deal with any consequences that action forced out of her. Her being upset with him. Deal. Her being angry at him. Deal. Her not forgiving him. Deal. He would work on each and every complaint of her. But he was not going to deal with a reality of Ga Eul loving anyone other than him.

He was really overstepping when he stated that he and Ga Eul were a couple. Ga Eul was going to serve his head in platter to hound dogs for that particular exaggeration. She was angry. That much was obvious ever since she stepped inside his studio. Many times, she opened her lovely mouth as if to say something then shook her head and held lip in a tight line. Well her coming to his studio was not a surprise. He was aware that Jae Sun have clued her in about his impromptu visit. He was always aware that no matter how angry Ga Eul was at him, she has not refuted his claim on their relationship to Jae Sun. That too him, spoke volumes. She was still his. After all his stupid actions. After all the hurt he put her through. And even after claiming that she is not going to pursue him anymore. In spite of all that, she was truly his. She may not have explicitly stated it but it was implied nonetheless. Even her giving up on him was for his benefit. He could all see it clearly now. As if some invisible fog has lifted from his eyes. She selflessly sacrificed her love for him maybe because she thought he has some lingering feeling for Eun only she knew.

He supposes he should have been also selfless. Should have asked her whether she loved this Jae Sun? Whether there were any lingering feelings there? But he couldn't. Not when it comes to her. With her, he was selfish. And about her, he was selfish to the extreme. He wouldn't step back when it comes to her. How could he? He loved her. From the moment he set eyes on her, he has been a changed man. He will be whatever she wants him to be. He will love her with a love that will burn every other love or lingering feeling she had to any man before and after him. After him? No. There will be no one else. Like there will be no one else for him. No more meaningless flings. It will be all her. If she lets him.

He patiently waited for her to say something. For what felt like after an eternity she asked in a mild whisper like voice. "Why?"

Holding her gaze he said. "Because he is not your soulmate."

She gasped in shock. Whatever she thought his explanation will be, clearly this was not what she expected him to say. "You would have waited for him if he was the one. You told me you should never go of the one you truly love…"

"Be as it may he is not the one. But you don't have to help me with all of my ex-boyfriends." She cut across him and stated.

"All of your ex-boyfriends? Are they many more Ga Eul Yang?" He asked raising his couldn't resist teasing her at the opening.

She was flabbergasted. " . Of course not. But that's not the point. It was not your place to interfere."

Ah. That's a problem isn't it? Well no matter here goes nothing…

"What if I want it to be my place to interfere?"
