Feelings Are True

Eunwoo followed Mina to house. He knew he was feeling odd, but he did not like to see Mina with another man who had potential to like her.

"Thank you..for driving me back home..."

Mina was telling the teacher.

"It's pleasure, friend."

The man said before left.

After the man was gone, Eunwoo came to her. She was about enter her house then...

"Mina..I know about it...!"

Mina looked at him but did not say anything.

"I'm sorry about that night...I..I was out of my mind!" He said further.

"It's only accident. It's not your whole fault. I let it happen too. You don't have to take responsibility!" Mina said.

"But you are expecting our child!"

"How do you know?"

"From Beomgyu...."

"I can rise my child on my way?"

"But it has my share too... right?"

Mina looked away.

"It's not right! But yep ok then you can support the child since ...it's yours!"

"Mina...are you at the door?" A woman's voice in the house came out.

"I have to go in..see you later!"

She turned to the house again.

Eunwoo hugged her from behind.

"Mina, it's all started out in wrong way. But let me look after you and our child.!"

She nodded. A tear fell down from her eyes again. It was both happy and sad tears. (She was happy because at least the guy was willing to take responsibility but unhappy because her life was not as she expected).

***************

Max became friendlier with Rose's family more and more, much to Rose's delight.

Rose's grandmother had been watching over her grandson in law to be. She was happy this gentleman Rose had chosen for now. Rose's two brothers came to admire him. The elder brother did not know how and when this man had effect on her. The man had helped him with his financial situation in most cases. However, the first time he felt guilty for being not very good eldest son was when he realised he could not support his family at all while their father was sick. His younger sister took all charge for the family then. He was surprised by himself how he wanted to reform himself. He still remembered the brother in law to be .. upright face, when he went to ask for job. Even though the was not as he had wished to, but being clerk at furniture selling shop office was not bad. This Min Hong guy had real good connection. The guy himself had increased his salary money to spend time more at more. He initially still visiting Casinos, but later grew out of it somehow. Yeah.. people could have change of mind. He started to be with his new life as clerk. Beomgyu and Max got along very well. Sometimes they seemed to be friends of same age.

There were still little interaction between Mr Park, Rose's father and Max. But he was happy. The world was indeed small. He was a good friend of Yeon, Max's mother. He even remembered when he was a bachelor, he had serious crush on her but was never made known to her about the feelings. Because it was his fault since he was involved with a lot of women and was made married to his wife when the parents caught them on bed. Mrs Park was a lazy fun loving woman. She still was as much as she could. But she now stayed at home more as she was aging too. Mr Park had always think Yeon, now Mrs Lee, was lucky to be relationship with Mr Kim. But things not went well for them too. He supposed Mr Lee was the best for her. The man could provide support for her in many ways and seemed to love her although she was taken before.

Chae Soo Bin visited Rose family sometimes now. She became very good friends with Rose as well as with Mina. If not known the number age, people might have thought Chae Soo Bin was younger. But in fact two years older than Rose. Now, they would sometimes invite Mian back to their group.

But the tragedy strike one morning, when Mina slipped off to floor by her headache. She was rushed to hospital by her family.

Kim Eunwoo was shocked when he found out Mina had lost their first child.

Mina had to rest at hospital for a few days. Eunwoo still by her side all times. Then one evening she spoke up.

"You don't need to take responsibility now!"

Eunwoo looked at her. He was sitting beside her bed. He took her hand in his.

"Mina....I'm very sorry...!"

"It's not your fault at all...it's mine!"

"No don't blame yourself.."

She looked away.

"Mina ... will you still be with me...!"

She turned back to him again.

"There's no reason at all!"

"There is!"

She was fixing her eyes on him.

"There is," he said again, "Because ... because ... you have taken my innocence.. you have to take responsibility of it!"

She was looking at him in silence.

But he said, "Yet the night was accident and unthinkable mistake. But but..my feelings right to are true. I ..I love you Mina.....so don't you ever think about running away from your responsibility ... teacher!"

Mina laughed.

"Don't you love me just a little!"

Mina saw him grinning.

"I do...I mean I do love you!"

*************

It was summer time, Rose again able to get another job for photoshooting with her cousin again. It was at Busan beach too.

It was Disney themed and Rose wore Ariel, the little mermaid's outfit with her hair dyed temporary into red.

Again it was weekend holiday. Many of her kins were here to cheer her, including the Chae and Kim families.

Chae Soo Bin played along the beach and played with water. Kim Seokjin offered to sail on small boat together with him and she agreed. (There was a someone who drove the boat. It was a small boat with a roof).

The boat sailed. Some others were sailing.

SooJin took photos and selfie.

Jin sat down to check online. But Soo Bin was still taking. But suddenly, the phone slipped out of her hand into water.

Chae Soo Bin jumped into the sea.

When, Jin was alarmed. He looked down and and saw Soo Bin hand disappearing into sea water. Jin jumped into the water.

"Help...Soo Bin is sinking into water!"

Chae Soo Bin under water could hear him. She finally got hold of her phone back.

Jin got hold of her. She closed her eyes. He thought she was unconscious and helped her back to the boat and to the shore.

Jin carried Soo Bin and tried CPR. Everyone was coming towards them. She finally let out water from mouth but still unconscious.

"She sank into the sea!"

Max was there too.

"Soo Bin sank into the sea?"

He seemed confused.

Jin picked Soo Bin up as too carried to her room.

In his arms, Soo Bin opened her eyes slightly and closing again and smiling a little. No one noticed it besides Max.

He sighed and smiled as well.

Chae Soo Bin slept very on her bed that night.

Mrs Kim and Mrs Chae were very delighted that their kids fell in love as they planned.

That night, Mrs Kim sat in the hotel pavilion alone enjoy the night summer air. Her husband came to sit besides her.

"It's already dark... don't you want to go inside?"

"No not yet, summer air is very sweet!", she said.

"Yes, indeed, it is! Congratulations on your success! Jin and Soo Bin are in love now!"

"Thank you!"

"Thank you very much Mrs Kim!"

She looked at her husband.

"Thank me for what?"

"For staying besides me in all these more than 30 years journey of life!"

"Well...I just do it for my family. I am really sorry though that you have to be apart from the you love."

She sighed before saying again.

"First love is hard to forget. Love makes us inseparable. Because it is first love, that it is even more stronger to forget. If you want to go back to her and she is willing to let you back. I have no objections. Our two sons are already grown too...will get married with their beloved ones later!"

Mr Kim let out a long sigh.

"It's not like that Mrs Kim...my wife...as a young man, I was very much in love with one woman. But fate had not make me go through life with her but another one. It was just then that I realised people could fall in love more than once!"

"Are you declaring love to me?"

"Yes...!"

"At this age?"

"Yes...."

"Well we already got two sons!"

"Hehe Yes!"
