Stay With Me Forever!

"Manager Kang, your wife is so pretty."

"Yes, Manager Kang... She is really beautiful ."

After Ji Ah left, Min Hyuk's colleagues started complimenting on Ji Ah's good looks. While some said with lust in their eyes, some were envious of him to have such a beautiful wife who worked both as a housewife and a teacher.

Even Min Hyuk felt proud of having such a cute wife who cared for him a lot. He thanked his colleagues and approached his new boss.

"Mr. Lee, is there anything else you would like to do?" Min Hyuk asked politely.

"Yes. I have a meeting with someone. So, you all can leave. We will see each other tomorrow." The man named Lee In Joon was appointed as the new CEO for D&M Company. Previously, his father, Lee Jun Ho was the CEO, but after he resigned... he gave his son the opportunity.

Lee In Joon was the same age as Kang Min Hyuk. He had golden brown hair which were curly, dark thick brows, blue eyes as deep and bright as the ocean, a prominent nose bridge and thin pink lips. An oval face with outlined cheekbones and a tall and straight posture made him look no less than a handsome movie star.

In Joon left the restaurant and sat in the back seat of his grand Cadillac. "Did you get any information regarding her?" He asked the assistant who sat in the driver's seat.

The assistant took the brown envelope and gave it to In Joon.

After coming back from the party, Baek Ji Ah changed into her night dress and sat near the dressing table. She took out a small box from inside the third drawer and opened it. She smiled as she saw the small locket.

It was heart shaped and when you open it, you can see photos inside. She opened it. A boy who was merely eight year old and a girl who was four year old hugged each other in that photo.

"I wonder where you are..." She sighed. "I don't even know whether you are alive or not... but my heart says you are... So, I'm sure you are just here somewhere and doing well."

She didn't know why all of a sudden she felt like checking out this locket and see the boy whose name she hardly remembered. All she knew was that his family name was Lee. Because on the day, when the boy was leaving, his caretaker had come to escort him by calling him Master Lee.

That was what she just remembered. And now, she felt that this typical memory which was engraved in her heart for a long time was getting hazy.

In some way, she felt thankful that she doesn't requires to meet her childhood friend again because they had made a promise... A promise which at that time she barely knew what it meant. But she had made it.

Now, she was living a good life with her husband and her husband was loving her back. She didn't need anything else other than this. A happy life was all that she had wanted and she thanked God for giving her one.

As she heard the noise of the door opening, she hurriedly kept the locket inside, safely.

Min Hyuk opened the door of their bedroom and saw his wife seated on the chair. He took off his coat and opened his tie. "Aish! The day was too tiring..." He stretched his body and approached his wife.

Bending over, he rested his head on her shoulder and sighed. "Ahh, I really missed you."

"I missed you too." Ji Ah stood up. She straightened her clothes and tied her hair in a low ponytail. Walking towards the closet, she took out a pair of clothes for Min Hyuk to wear.

As Minhyuk saw Ji Ah acting all dull, he approached her and held her hands. "Ji Ah... Is everything okay? You look so dull." He asked with a gentle and concerned voice.

Ji Ah heard his gentle voice and she immediately hugged him. "Just never let me go.... Stay with me forever." Her voice started to crack.

He pulled her away from the hug and looked at her face. Seeing the tears coming out, he wiped them and hugged her again "You dummy. Why do you have to cry for such a thing? I was the one who asked you to stay forever with me and now, you are asking me to do the same... PFFT!" He giggled and Ji Ah hit him on his chest.

"Ouch." He whined and Ji Ah whined back "Can't you at least comfort me? You only know how to tease me."

Min Hyuk laughed even harder. He held his stomach and burst up laughing. "Lol, my dear wife."

Ji Ah angrily pushed him aside and laid down on the bed. She laid on her stomach and pouted "Are you like this with your employees, too? Huh?"

Min Hyuk also laid down beside her on his stomach and hugged her. "Only my wife can see this behavior of mine." He kissed her shoulder and turned her to his side. "You are the only one I love and you will be the one whom I will love forever... So, don't worry." He kissed her on her forehead and pecked her lips.

Ji Ah hugged him back. She snuggled to his chest and closed her eyes. She felt warm in his embrace and she wanted to sleep like this with him. She switched off the lights and they both drifted to sleep.

"Alright. Let us go..." The man who sat inside the black Cadillac ordered the driver to leave. Since, it was night... his face wasn't clearly visible.

The man had been waiting outside Min Hyuk's house for the past 10 minutes. He saw the lights going off and he instructed the driver to leave.

As the car began to speed up, the man turned his back and saw the house again. "I will finally be with you, Ji Ah." He murmured.
