She was mine

The insides of my stomach were crumbling at an alarming speed as my twin brother smiled joyfully at me with his glass of champagne raised in a toast, and his free hand securely holding the waist of his intended bride tightly to his side. The room erupted in excitement as everyone raised their own glasses in congratulations.I too raised my glass, and smiled back just as brightly. The intensity of my heartbreak was overwhelming, but my smile didn't falter even for a second since I was determined to keep my brother oblivious to the fact that, I was hurting terribly from the inside right in front of him. I had to keep my secret. So I swallowed my scarred emotions, took several deep breaths to steady my breathing, then hugged and congratulated him for his engagement to the only woman I had ever loved in my entire life.

Jeon and I sneaked in through my bedroom window one night when I was really wasted from some wild party and didn't want my father to find out that I was out partying instead of preparing for a very important presentation for the board meeting the morning after. I can't say I remember where the said party was held or whose it was for, but what I do remember is that immediately my brother switched on the light, our father was standing right by the door waiting for us like the freaking undertaker with a baseball bat. We froze in place with both our eyes wide open like deer caught in headlights as he stood there glaring at us. It was like he was the gladiator and we were the unlucky bastards who were about to get our butts handed to us. The whole thing wasn't f

I woke up to the most beautiful sound of classical music that was coming from somewhere downstairs and I didn't need to go down and check on who had suddenly invaded my home and turned it into some sort of major concerto to know that jeon's fiance, Kristal had graced our humble abode with her beautiful presence that morning.Although it was most likely that she came in during the night and slept over like she usually did on weekends when her man wasn't caught up with some unavoidable meeting or important project or whatever it is company heirs did on busy weekends. Though I honestly wasn't too sure either since I was pretty much passed out for most of the night from my usual weekend partying.But how she came in, didn't really matter because now I had to figure out how I was going to navigate through yet another day of watching

A sudden feel of soft feminine hands on my bare skin was all it took to pull me out of my deep slumber and even before I could understand what the hell was going on, the hands in question had curled up around my waist in a tight hold and pulled me closer to a naked body that lay underneath the sheets.It only took that much time for me to come to my senses because, I was too tired from overworking myself trying to help my brother out on some work he had been keeping untouched in his room for weeks. And yes, I know am a snob when it comes to anything work related, but it was obvious that he was in dire need of help considering he had his normal job to do and also had to deal with the new construction of a department store on the beautiful island of Jeju. I usually don't bother with Jeon when it comes to his job because he is on

In the few weeks following the Jeju project's commencement, work pilled up at the office so much that, even I had no choice but to spend all my time moving up and down with a thousand things to do. so the one Sunday I managed to get off work was such a blessing to me that I gladly decided to just sleep in and lazy around for the whole day.Unfortunately for me however, that Sunday just happened to be the same day Kristal decided to start up with her wedding things. She had received a message from her wedding planner the night before, informing her of the arrival of her dress and jeon's tux. Apparently they were supposed to go there for a fitting as a couple. But since Jeon is a certified workaholic, he was no where in sight that day, leaving me to suffer his fate because I was the walking, breathing replica of him.
