The ride back to Seoul was quiet, with Kenneth receiving call after call. He practically stayed on the phone discussing one business thing after another. Kita just sat quietly as he made her feel, in some way, that this was her fault. When he pulled up to the hotel, he told her. "I will call you later." Kita tried to smile at him as she opened the car door to get out. Even though she felt confused and a measure of hurt by his sudden attitude, she replied in a disquiet tone. "Have a good day. Yes, I'll talk to you later." Kita paused as she turned, leaning down and looking into the car at him as she put forth the effort to utter optimistically. Kenneth.....You can call me late if you like.". "Okay, I got to go! See you later!" Kenneth said in a rushed tone. Kita closed the car door. She watched him pull off quickly. Kita began to feel strange; she didn't know how to think after that episode of events. It started a typical morning with a display of affection for one another, and t

"Kenneth, the food is delicious. But, I was thinking, did I make the right decision in coming here? I know you're busy, but I wondered if I'm a distraction?" Kita said as she probed him, waiting for his reply. "No...Kita. It's not you, trust me. Since my accident, as you know, I don't remember a lot of what I did in my past. I have childhood friends that I haven't seen in years. Who careers I held up for years when I ran off to Australia to run my father's company. So, I owe these guys a lot. But it doesn't mean you are distracting to me. Look, let me make it up to you on the dance floor." Kita smiled slightly at his suggestion, relaxing just a bit, thinking of how much fun they had dancing back in the Baha Mar when they walked through the club doors. The DJ was playing a Chris Brown song, 'Fine China.' Kenneth walked slightly ahead of Kita, holding her hand as he guided her through the crowd. He waved and winked at some of the people on the floor. Kita realized that most of these p

Because I want you, and I love you. I'm never going anywhere without you." Kenneth uttered in manly confidence. Kita sat there on the phone, moved by his words and apology but very unsure. "You do know you're running out of apologies. What can I say? I feel my forgiving you are getting weak, Kenneth. Like you said last night, I shouldn't accept your behavior. So my advice to you is to fix it! Kenneth, then call me. I'll talk to you another time. Bye." Kita hung up the phone, feeling proud of herself for not allowing her emotions to rule her. She realizes her feelings are important too, and even though Kenneth says he gets it, now she needs proof. Kenneth held his cell phone in his hand, staring at it, somewhat surprised and confounded, as he looked at his cell phone that read 'call ended.' He wasn't expecting her to say the things he heard from her mouth before she hung up. Kenneth laughs; it was the most unforgiving speech he has ever heard Kita give. Oddly enough, though, it gav

"I don't want anything. Please, Ms. Cole.... don't ask this of me...because...because I can't give him up." Kita shook her head in refusal. With the way Ms. Cole was behaving, you would think Kita had captured her son and was holding him against his will as a prisoner of war. Even after answering Ms. Cole, Kita sat there motioning her head, saying no. She couldn't believe this was taking place, but when she thought about him dating someone in the past while he was engaged to her, Kita was getting to see just how far his mother would go. "Look, Kita, you're a beautiful girl, and I'm sure you can find a nice man similar to yourself in your Country. Please! Let Kenneth find a girl like himself, and you both can be happy. Why put yourselves through so much difficulty and pain?" Kita was listening to the insulting, agonizing words that Ms. Cole spoke. She sat there trying to contain herself, motioning her head quickly from side to side. Her eyes closed tightly as she uttered immediately

"Some of them asked where he was and if he was sick. All I did was smile." Chun said, hoping they wouldn't stick around too long, hoping for him to show up later. "Does anyone know what time Kenneth is to board the plane?' Minho asked. "He will arrive shortly before take-off, he told me," Minsoo explained. Kenneth continues to explain to Kita over the phone. "I thought it would best for you not to come to the studio. Too many people hang out late at night and into the early mornings. You would not believe how busy SME building gets between 12 midnight and 4 am. It's unreal how backward we all are. So you'll meet them on the plane. Is that okay?" "Sure, Kenneth......You know, sweetheart, it seems you have a lot of things to be concerned about when it comes to you and me. Is this too much?" Kita inquired in a weary voice. "Oh no!.....No! Not at all! We must be careful until we're ready to tell others about our relationship. The fans and the Korean entertainment world.....well... ho
