Chapter 55

Eun was taking the empty bowl and cups from the table and cleaning it. The table was almost cleaned and she was on her way to the kitchen with some small bowls. Suddenly Chi Won came to her and start to help her.

"What's wrong with you today? You never helped me before!" said Eun and smiled.

"It's because exercise," said Chi Won and smiled cutely.

"Exercise!" surprised Eun. Tae Jin was passing by there and saw them together again. He felt angry with both of them but he couldn't say anything. He left from there out of anger but nobody noticed him.

"Yes, I saw a video on how to stay fit. On that, they told us to do household works. It's a kind of exercise too. I want to be fit like others. But as I am shorter than others, I can't become fit like them, like Tae Jin! He has the perfect body. I want to become like him too." said Chi Won and smiled disappointingly.

"Hey! I like you the way you are. You don't need to be changed. You are perfect on your way. Tae Jin has a perfect body but does he have a sweet, cute, and perfect voice like you? It's okay if you want to help me. But I am telling you, you don't have to be changed. Got it?" said Eun and smiled sweetly.

"Really? You like me the way I am?" asked Chi Won with hope. But Eun couldn't understand what he was saying and she replied,

"Yes, Why won't I like you?"

"I will come back soon," said Chi Won and rushed to his room. He went to his room and start screaming.

"Yes! She likes me! Yes, yes yes! Woo-hoo! I am the happiest person ever!" said Chi Won to himself, then he comes out by controlling himself. He goes to the kitchen like a manly man and starts talking with Eun.

"Hi!" said Chi Won.

"It's late. Go to sleep." said Eun while washing the dishes.

"Oh! You are calling it late? It's just 10 pm!" surprised Chi Won.

"You should go and take rest, aren't you tired?" said Eun.

"No, I am not tired after all. I have so much energy left. I could dance for you now." said Chi Won and hold Eun's hand and start dancing. Eun start to laugh and said, "Hey! Leave me! Stop it! I know you are too strong. Now, just let me go." Her luck was not so good because Tae Jin was passing by there once again and saw them dancing together. He felt so angry that he wants to break something but he controlled himself and went away. Actually, he came here, again and again, to see what Eun is doing. He forgets about today's matter and also forgets that he was feeling awkward in front of Eun. Suddenly Chi Won pulls her too close to him and Eun starts to feel awkward.

"Leave me!" said Eun slowly and push him gently. Chi Won could understand that Eun doesn't like it so he leaves her and said sorry to her. Then he left from there. When she finished her work in the kitchen, she went to Tae Jin's room quietly and slowly because she doesn't want to face him. She saw that Tae Jin fall asleep until then. She went to her room slowly and without any noise.

The next morning when she starts cleaning the house, she goes to Young Soo's room. Today all of them are in the house because they don't have any work on their hand today. Also, Woo Jin was not there. He went to visit his wife. She was not in good condition and that's why he was so worried about his wife. And he couldn't give his full attention to them. She couldn't enter his room because she heard Young Soo talking with someone on his phone. She tried to listen standing in front of the door.

"No, Why you can't understand? And what's your problem with me? Why you are acting like this always with me?" Young Soo was saying those loudly. Eun listened to him and got afraid. She couldn't guess who that person was and what's wrong with him. But she wants to know.

"And I don't want to either. Don't call me again of you have to act like this," said Young Soo and stopped. Eun saw from outside that he drop the phone from his hand. Eun go to him and asked,

"What happened? Who was that?"

"It's my mom," said Young Soo and take a long breath.

"What was she saying? Why you were shouting on her?" asked Eun very gently. Suddenly tears were falling from his eyes.

"What's wrong? Why you are crying? Tell me!" surprised Eun.

"If I told you, could you help me?" said Young Soo slowly.

"Maybe I can't but you will felt good if you share your sadness with anyone. But if I could, then I will certainly help you," said Eun and smiled gently.

"My mom didn't want to see me like this. She wants me to lead a normal life. She told me to left singing and do another something. But it is my passion. How could I leave singing? I will die if I leave the way. I have become a successful man. But my mom is not satisfied with me. She forbade my sister to come to me and meet with me. I didn't saw her face for so many days. What should I do? I love both of my mom and my sister." said Young Soo.

"Why your mom act like that? Is there something that she wants from you?" asked Eun surprisingly.

"Yes, she is angry with me. She wants me to see like a doctor but I failed her. I was not so good at study." said Young Soo and wiped his face with his hand.

"I know how you felt to stay away from them. By the way, where is the restaurant which you mentioned last night?" said Eun and wants to change the topic so that he could feel better. "You want to apply?" asked Young Soo being happy.

"I want to give a try," said Eun and smiled. Then Young Soo gives her the address of his sister's restaurant. Eun took the address from him.

"Okay, I will communicate with them. Now, stop being like that. I can't see you like this. Give me a smile!" said Eun and smiled. Young Soo also wants to give her a smile but he couldn't.

"What? I like you when you smile. But it's very rare. Smile now, please? For me?" said Eun smilingly. Young Soo couldn't sit like before. He laughed to see the way Eun told him to smile.

"That's good now," said Eun and smiled. When she left there, Young Soo said to himself, "She is truly our Star!" Eun goes to her room but she couldn't enter because Tae Jin was standing near the room entrance. Eun remembered about last night and become embarrassed. She couldn't tell anything to him. She wants to tell something but she failed.

"Got some time, huh?" said Tae Jin and give a weird smile. He looks angry. He was acting like he got angry on Eun for some reason. Eun didn't expect that from him because last night she saw him and he was avoiding her eyesight out of shame. But today he looks fully different. His eyes were red and his face was also. He was looking at Eun's eye straight. He kept looking at her angrily and didn't move his eyesight from him. Eun gets so surprised because she didn't know what have she done and why he is looking so angry. And also he never talks with her like these before. He was always very gentle to her and also very kind to her. But today he is pretending like he is gonna kill her for some reason. "What? Why you are acting like this?" asked Eun surprisingly.

"I am acting? Woah! Now, I am acting! Great! I am acting." said Tae Jin angrily and look another way.

"What's wrong with you? Did I do something wrong?" asked Eun very surprisingly.

"Something Wrong? You did everything wrong. You should be thankful to me. I bring you here. I allow you to stay here. And you are avoiding me? Why? What did I do to you? And now, you are dating my best friend! He doesn't talk with me properly after he got you! You are ruined his life!" said Tae Jin very angrily. Even he doesn't know what he was saying and why he was pretending like this.

"Excuse me! Who told you that I am dating your friend? Aish! You and your mind! Yes, I am thankful to you but you can't behave with me like this! Ah! Really? If you got that problem with me, then I will leave. What a crazy person!" said Eun angrily and left from there.

"She is not dating with Chi Won!" said Tae Jin to himself and become happy. "Hey! Jung Hwa, What's up?" said Eun and entered his room. He was watching something on his phone.

"Hey, Star! What are you doing here?" said Jung Hwa cheerfully.

"I am searching for something, could you help me?" said Eun.

"You want help from me? Okay, I will help you. Just tell me what I have to do." said Jung Hwa and put his phone on the bed.

"Do you know how I could go to this restaurant?" asked Eun and showed him a paper with an address.

"Oh! It's the hotel of Young Soo. Right? You want to go there?" said Jung Hwa. "Yes, Could you say anything about his sister?" asked Eun.

"What do you want to know about her?" asked Jung Hwa and took a long breath.

"Like what is her name, how she looks like, and where could I found her?" said Eun. Okay, her name is Goo Young. She is pretty, beautiful and very kind. You could find her in that hotel." said Jung Hwa.

"Is it a hotel? But Young Soo said that it's a restaurant!" asked Eun and surprised.

"No, it's a hotel. But why you are searching for her?" asked Jung Hwa.

"I have something to talk with her," said Eun and smiled.

"Oh! Talk about what?" asked Jung Hwa. "Okay, can you tell me why she stops talking with Young Soo?" asked Eun curiously.

"She didn't just stop talking with him. She also stopped coming here," said Jung Hwa and took a long breath.

"She used to come here?" surprised Eun. "Yes, Almost every day," said Jung Hwa disappointedly.

"Why she would do that? Do you know the reason?" said Eun worriedly.

"I don't know any of it," said Jung Hwa sadly.

"Oh! You want to know?" asked Eun. "What?" asked Jung Hwa.

"That why she stopped coming here?" "Yes,"

"Then let's go," said Eun and start moving.

"Where?" asked Jung Hwa surprisingly. "To the hotel," said Eun and smiled. "Really? You are going now?" surprised Jung Hwa. Eun didn't answer anything. So he said again,

"Wait! I am coming."

When they reached the hotel, it was 11. am in the morning.

"How can I help you, sir?" said the receptionist gently.

"We want to meet Goo Young. Is she here?" said Jung Hwa.

"Yes, Just wait some minutes. I will tell her." said the receptionist and called someone. They were waiting for her by sitting on the chair of a table. After some time, She came and surprised to see Jung Hwa.

"You are here!" asked Goo surprisingly. "Yes, This girl wants to meet with you," said Jung Hwa and pointed on Eun.

"Who is she?" asked Goo Young.

"She is..." said Jung Hwa and going to say more but Eun stopped him.

"I am Eun Byeol. Young Soo's girlfriend," said Eun gently.

"What?" surprised Jung Hwa.

"When..." Jung Hwa going to ask her something. But Eun holds his hand tightly and gestures him to be silent. So he stopped and keep silent.

"So, how can I help you?" asked Goo Young. She didn't surprised and pretending like she knew that.

"Why you stopped talking with him?" asked Eun.

"Why you want to know?" asked Goo.

"I didn't ask that. Just answer me," said Eun.

"I don't want to talk with him anymore," said Goo Young.

"Why?" asked Eun.

"I don't like him as my brother. And also he doesn't love me like before," said Goo.
