CHAPTER 102
JEONGHAN’s POV
The night before the wedding has finally come and I was standing in the living room, surrounded by dozens of pictures of Yoo-Mi over the years.There’s one of her when she was five years old dressed in a Cinderella costume. Another one of her sitting on her dad’s lap eating ice cream.A picture of her and Josh on the prom night, he was probably her escort.Her high school graduation—where I chose to break her heart. Josh was standing right next to her. There are images of her sledding with her mom, sitting on a sandy beach beside—Josh.A recent one of her with Honey, their resemblance uncanny. The other photos were Yoo-Mi, Josh, and Honey.Her whole life is splayed out in front of me on the mantle, on the walls. I’ve known her for more than half of her life but I have never been there for her. She’s been the most important person in my life since the moment I first saw her in her room 12 years agoRelated chapters

YOO-MI’s POVThe day has come for me and Jeonghan to finally be one, as man and wife. We both agreed to have a simple ceremony and only close friends, and relatives were invited.Now I was almost ready for the ceremony that would take place a few minutes from now. I was already glam up by the professional make-up artist, mom had hired for this event.“For a woman who is about to marry the man she loves, you certainly look like a woman who is being forced to do this.” Mom raised an eyebrow in my direction. “Are you having second thoughts about this? It’s not too late to back out.”I looked up to her who was busy examining my appearance as I sat on the bed with all of my wedding fineries, I sighed deeply, staring at the pretty bouquet of flowers in my hands. “I’m just nervous mom, wedding jitters I guess.” I paused. “What if Jeonghan changed his mind?”“What do you mean?” instantly s

YOO-MI’s POVIt’s been a week since he left and I’ve been standing right in front of his mansion, staring at the door for the last two hours. I don’t know if I could face what’s on the other side of it. I don’t know if I want to. If I want to open the door and acknowledge the truth.He’s gone.He left us.He made me fall in love with him again and then he ripped the rug out from underneath me.He made me hope, not only for me but for my daughter, our daughter. He made us believe that we will build our own family.My heart hurts. Not like the first time he broke up with me. This hurt is, it’s my soul aching not for me but also for my daughter.My hopes and dreams were all snatched away from me and nothing left. Everything was black, everything hurts. Things that have never hurt me before, hurt me now.My skin, hair, nails. I didn’t know that was possible, for those things to ache. But they d

YOO-MI’s POVOn day seven, I smiled briefly, but everyone noticed. It was my second day at Rocket Company. I saw Josh that day and he told me that I looked beautiful despite my wrinkled clothes and hollow eyes. Yeri gave me a small smile, still hesitated to talk to me.Day seven was the day that only half of my time was spent and I am now here in front of Jeonghan’s house after Mr. Yoon visited me and gave me the keys. I didn’t accept the keys for us to live here but for me to search inside, maybe I could find something that will answer my questions.No one asked me or even mention me leaving or where I will go after. I am grateful for it but at the same time, I had no idea how to tell them I am going here.The tears leaked down my frozen face and splattered on the black dress I was wearing. I chose black because I am mourning. Mourn of him losing and leaving.My feet carried me to the front door of his house, keys in my hands. Mr. Yoon sai
MY CRUSH, MY NEIGHBOR CHAPTER 106
YOO-MI’s POVI woke up to the smell of Grandma cooking my favorite bokkeumbap, mixed with the smell of bacon and sausages.My head still pounding from all the crying I did last night. Honey laid beside me where Jeonghan should have been.My daughter refused to leave me, to sleep in her own room. She said she wanted to comfort me, but she said she didn’t know how, so she just stayed beside me and gave me the sweetest hug and kissed me every time.My feet touched the floor and I stretched my arms over my head and walked towards the bathroom. I untied my silky red dress as it pooled down at my feet. Red. The color of my bleeding heart.I turned on the shower knob and stepped under it. The cold water stung as I waited for it to turn warm. When I closed my eyes, all I can see was him, his eyes, his sweet smile. So gentle, so warm, like the water as it cascaded down my back.My finger slid along the tile as I think back to that evening he made lov

YOO-MI’s POVEmbarrassment swarmed across my body as I snatched my heels and harshly sat down on top of my bed.Josh grabbed my feet and I watched him as he put on the shoes on me with tenderness. He looked up and I felt the blood in my veins turned to ice.“I’m sorry Yoo-Mi, it’s just…” He began.He’s struggling to explain why he just felt me up, kissed me, and then stopped.“It’s okay Josh, I know you love Yeri and I shouldn’t have kissed you back. It’s wrong. It was so wrong.” I snapped before getting up from the bed and walking to my full-length mirror. “What are you doing here anyway?”“I came here to check on you,” he said, sitting down on my bed, watching me. “You looked so gorgeous in that dress.” His eyes gleamed as they raked slowly down my body.“Thank you,” I forced out a laugh. “You didn’t have to drive a

YOO-MI’s POVYeri goes through her introductions as I watched our client, Mr. Vernon Chwe sitting beside her. He was leaning back in his chair, his right legs propped up his left knee, an expensive Rolex watch strapped on his beautiful wrist. He has money obviously and he’s staring straight up to Yeri with admiration in his eyes like they’ve known each other for so long.Vernon laughed, a little too loud, a little too long. It’s so obvious from the way Yeri’s eyes lingered on him, tilting her face flirtatiously towards him.She is batting her lashes to Vernon while talking, holding his gaze and slapping his arm playfully like I wasn’t here watching them. Well, we’re five in the room and the other three were discussing on their own. I am the only one who’s observing suspiciously with these two.Her laughter rumbled, shaking her head. She never laughed at Josh like this, is she cheating on my best friend? Oh God, that

YOO-MI’s POV“Okay,” Vernon said softly and removed his shirt again throwing it back on the floor. I could see the lust in his eyes and I swallowed heavily.You can do this Yoo-Mi, for Josh.“Come here,” he said and I walked closer and stopped right in front of him.He patted his lap. “Closer,” he said, his voice a dark, dangerous timbre. Trench-deep.He reached out a hand and grasped my wrist. And then with a tug, I am on his lap.“I won’t let you fall.” He whispered a hot breath in my ear.He tilted his head and dragged his gaze slowly, languidly over me, taking his time running to my shoulder, down the sweep of my long brown hair, lingering on the shadowed cleavage between my breasts which I purposedly opened two buttons of my blouse for him to see it, for me to seduce him.My chest rose and fell madly, frantically with every pant, every rasp of my labored breaths.“What

JOSH’s POVWhen mom and dad finally reconciled, my heart felt overwhelmed but why do I feel like it was still empty. Yes, I have a girlfriend and that was Yeri but my heart shouts for another woman.I felt guilty for kissing her, like the first time I told Yoo-Mi that I’m in love with her and Jeonghan was already her boyfriend.I took another bite of pizza as I stared out the window down the Sunset Boulevard, everything glowing red and green down the street. Candy cane striped store fronts.A few tourists meander down the streets, taking in the Christmas lights. Well, Christmas is coming and I want to celebrate the most important holiday of the year with the woman I love.When Jeonghan came back into Yoo-Mi’s life, I thought I’ve lost her the second time around. I thought she was falling for me too but I was wrong.That night, I found myself in one of the famous clubs in Gangnam drowning in alcohol. And there I met Yeri. She was
