The night at the Party...
"....I'm just curious about one thing. You have enough, right? Then why are you after all the rich guy?"
"What did you say I'm after rich guys?" Somin face darkened more, her hand was still on her cheek. Her blood was raging inside her body. No one in the earth slapped her before.
Rayan nodded. "Yeah. You're. First Alex. Second Daniel. Now me. You know what you want attention. You want every rich guy for you." He was looking like nothing happened, normal.
Taking her hand down from her cheek, she looked sharply at Rayan who was looking cold. "And you want every girl to play with you, right? We're the same, Rayan." She smiled wickedly.
Rayan let out a soft laugh and nodded. "You can say I WANTED to play with girls like you. Believe I regret that. I regret I dated someone like you."
The disappointments on her face were obvious to see. But she forced herself to
After coming to San Marco Square, Rayan held Crystal's hand. "What?" Crystal blinked her eyes as he pulled him with him to the place where so many pigeons were flying."Rayan. They will attack us." Crystal shouted hurriedly when he started walking towards them.Rayan nodded. "I'll protect you." Crystal pressed her feet on the ground, not ready to go. They were flying too much.Rayan narrowed his eyes and pulled her harder. Crystal lowered her head and closed her eyes tightly as the pigeons started flying around them. She stood like a statue, holding Rayan's hand. "Rayan....!" She screamed as a pigeon sat on her hair.Rayan couldn't help but laugh. She was looking so cute. Suppressing his smile, he turned his head to the other side. "I'll not do anything. I'm angry with you." He pressed lips together.Crystal creased her brows and opened her eyes now. "Why?" She turned her head to him confusingly.
Somin looked at herself in the mirror before spraying the perfume on her neck. She adjusted the robe and hair when someone knocked on the door. Her smile spread on her face knowing who was it. It's Rayan! It's strange but he called her and said he'll come.Taking a last glance at herself in the mirror, she opened the door and the smile on her face faded away seeing Crystal standing outside. Not Rayan. "Why are you here? The person I want to see is Rayan." The blood ragged inside her body.Crystal sighed. "So rude. You don't have any manner." She put her hand on her shoulder and gently push her aside, making space for herself to come in. Somin was blocking the space.Somin was still holding the doorknob. "Get out. And send him." She shouted at her.Crystal sat on the couch and looked at her. "My husband wasn't ready to let me come here. He said he'll handle this. I think this was the reason. He was afraid of your rud
Crystal flipped her eyes open when she felt wet kisses on her neck. "Rayan. Stop." Rayan bit on her skin and she whined."Darling. Can you check at the clock?" He whispered.Crystal blinked her blur vision and glanced at the clock. Her eyes got rounded seeing the clock ticking at 11.48 pm. She quickly pulled herself in a sitting position. "Rayan. Why didn't you wake me up? We don't have time."Rayan sat beside her and nodded. "I tried but... couldn't. And don't worry everything is ready, see I changed your dress to nightgown so that you don't have to waste time in it.""What are you saying?" Crystal got confused, she creased her brows. As Rayan hinted her to check herself, she scanned herself from head to toe. That's right. She wasn't wearing a nightgown. Her eyes widened again with shock. Did he change her dress? Really? Her face turned red.Rayan noticed that he pressed his lips together, trying t
"Actually we met before at a club. But here in the canteen your mom first saw me." Rayan said as he took a glance at the cash counter, then at the seats. A smile spread across his face. Though seven years have passed, the canteen is still the same. "We started with a catfight between us. I still remembered her glare so clearly."Crystal let out a soft laugh. "I didn't see you at the club but I talked with you."Rayan narrowed his gaze at her. "Yeah. You called me uncle. Really? Uncle? I still get angry about that."Anne turned to her mother with a curious face. "Mom, how do you feel when you first met dad? Your heart was beating so fast, right?""Why do you think my heart will be beating fast seeing you dad?" Crystal asked as she squatted down in front of her."Because my dad is so handsome." Anne replied with a sweet smile.Rayan laughed and knelt beside Crystal, looking at his dau
1 week later..."Okay. So Dr. Crystal will be leading the surgery. Dr. Yejin will be with her. Inform Resident Michel to get the patient tomorrow at 3. General Anesthesia will work." The team discussion ended as Dr. Han announced it.Crystal came out of the room with Yejin and headed to their office room. "So how is your romance going on with your husband?" Yejin asked Crystal with a grin plastered on her face.Crystal rolled her eyes around and leaned forward to her to whisper. "Going on like horsepower!" She winked at her.Yejin raised her brows. "Aren't you having trouble with walking? Your legs...""Hi girls."Crystal and Yejin both looked back hearing Alex's voice. Crystal smiled. "Here is your closest friend, Yejin." She teased them.Yejin narrowed her eyes at her. "You're teasing us now?"Crystal suppressed her smile and shook her head, tryin
"Did you find out anything?" Crystal asked when she saw Rayan coming out of the office room of Somin. She was still trembling. Though she wasn't crying, her heart was bleeding. She will not let anything happen to Anne. She is her life. She'll not be able to live without her.Rayan heaved a deep sigh before shaking. "They said she left in the morning. She wasn't in the hotel too. So where on this earth she has gone? I think we should inform the police, Crystal." When he heard everything, he felt he lost himself like seven years ago. But he has to be strong for Anne, for Crystal. He never thought Somin can do something like this. He'll not lose hope, he'll try his best. And he'll find her out.Crystal ran her hand through her hair and shook her head. "We don't have time, Rayan." She tried to find a way. And glanced at the watch. They have two hours left. Everyone was searching for them in every possible place. But failed.Suddenly som
Crystal's tears poured out uncontrollably as she saw he stepped into the elevator and its door started closing. His eyes were red, he was fighting inside. He was fighting with his heart. "I'm sorry." She whispered as she stared at the ring around her finger............."Don't be. I'm here. Anne is here. We'll fight everything together. Just let me stay by your side always. Trust me. I'll not let anything happen to us."............"Thank you. Thank you for bringing Anne to this world. Thank you for giving me another chance. Thank you for everything.".........."No matter how many birds you have in your cage, you're in Rayan's cage. You can't escape from my cage. No one can steal you from my cage."..........."The fragile heart of yours, I promise I'll handle it with care. I'll not break it again. You have to trust me, okay?"..
"Anne."Crystal ran to Anne when she came out of Rayan's car. She pulled her daughter in her embrace and kissed her cheeks, forehead, nose. "Are you... okay, Princess?" She cupped her face. Anne looked pale. She was so afraid of course.Anne nodded. "I'm okay mom. Don't worry." She assured her mother with a pale smile. "Though some uncle tied my hands, they fed me. They weren't bad." She smiled in her mother's embrace.Crystal's tears started rolling down to her cheeks. "Mom is sorry, Princess. Mom is really sorry." She sobbed."Dad is also sorry."They looked behind them where Rayan was standing. Anne pulled away and wiped her mother's tears. "Dad has told me the same thing continuously in the car. I don't know why you two are sorry. But Anne is strong. I'm really okay. Don't cry."Crystal tried to smile but she could not filter out her real smile. "I know my Anne is strong." Then
