I don't deserve you

*Guk-Du's POV*

She cut the call after saying those words. She didn't even listen to me completely. He can't be announced for the death penalty. Surely for life imprisonment. She won't listen, stubborn girl.

It's been three weeks and she changed a lot. And so did our relationship. But some positive changes are also there. She has become much healthier than before and looks even more beautiful.

When I got to know the story behind her not talking much to boys and the reason was that bastard. Although he is already dead, he deserved to. Anger was rushing in my veins hearing her story and seeing her crying because of that. It took me almost a week to calm my anger.

She is getting discharged next week. Her mother learned about her past which was accidentally told to her by one of my teammates. She secretly recorded the whole conservation. Why? Molla. (Molla = I don't know)

Her mother left for some time for her hometown to get her thoughts settled for about a month or even longer. Di-Hee was not happy about her mother knowing at all. She nearly beat up the officer, only if I weren't there.

We went to our first date in the hospital only, she insisted over and over again but wasn't allowed to leave the hospital. She decided everything from place to timings. Only the gift and even the arrangement was by her, was my choice. She acted like a kid that day.

She was so enthusiastic and smiling. It was the first time I saw her that cheerful. And then I am sitting here on the couch in the ward, staring at her. It is my day off for the next ten days, so I decided to spend that time with her.

I was looking at her when some tense lines formed on her forehead. Her expression changed to scared and she started to sweat a little. I got up from my seat and went towards her to check the situation.

When I reached there, suddenly she started to move her head sideways with fear covering her face. I shook her a little but her state didn't change. Her hand automatically grabbed mine and I shook her more vigorously. She woke up with a jolt and almost immediately hugged me tightly.

I patted her head lightly, continuously. And stroke her back softly, whispering soft words and sentences. She relaxed a little after some time. Her breathings were still a bit disturbed. After a moment she backed off and continuously combed her lower hair a habit she tends to do when she is nervous.

I sat on the side of the bed which was spaced enough for me to sit comfortably. I softly touched her head from the other side and slowly kept in on my chest and leaned back. Wrapping my hands around her securely. She also wrapped her hands around my waist and snuggled.

It tickled a bit but it felt nice. Seeing her reaction after she woke up I decided not to ask about that nightmare. But suddenly she asked with a voice so tender and soft.

"Won't you ask me what happened?" Slowly drawing small circles on my chest with her free hand.

"Not until you feel that it is the right time to tell. So rest up you have to recover soon so that you can get out of this place." I slowly said near her ear while caressing her hair softly. I could see the tip of her ears turning red. She looked cute.

"You wanna talk about that?" I asked to make the situation comfortable. She nodded slowly still looking downwards.

"It was about that day. The man came in my dreams to kill me." She said I hugged her even tighter and she started sobbing.

"It's fine. It's over. Calm down, shh." She started crying and I rubbed her back.

"I don't deserve you." She said between her cry and let go of me and turned her face to the other side and tilted her body with that. But I back-hugged her. She uncontrollably cried and shook her head.

"Don't say that. You are really precious to me. Don't. I don't care whatsoever what happens in future or happened, don't you trust your love? If you say so I will jump off a cliff just for you." I said as tears rolled down my cheeks seeing Di-Hee's state.

"N-no. Do-don't you d-dare to do th-that." She said between hiccups and faced towards me to hug me even tighter. We stayed in that position till she calmed down.

She looked at me with red swollen eyes and then held my hand looking downwards and said a meek sorry.

I grabbed her chin to make her look at me and kissed her for a few seconds.

"Sleep you have some blood tests tomorrow." I completed my sentence just then I remembered something and said, "Did you get to know about Bong-Soon's marriage?"

"What?"
