?Hyuna’s POV?
{Wubeat Building, Gangnam Province, Seoul}
?10:00AM?
It’s been one month since Baekhyun shattered my heart into pieces, one month since I returned to Korea alone and devastatingly heartbroken. Although it didn’t feel like one month ago, everything still felt like yesterday. The wound Baekhyun left in my heart was still very fresh and it still hurt like hell to know that he used and dumped me.
It has also been one month since Suho made that shocking offer to me. I still can’t believe he actually proposed to me, with a ring!
Hmph, so so shocking
The sound of my alarm clock blaring pulled me back to reality and I slowly sat up in bed before sliding out and walking to the living room while ru-b-bing my sleepy eyes. As much as everything still hurt; I was slowly getting used to it and I was facing reality everyday.
I walked into the kitchen and pulled open the refrigerator to grab a bottle of water when that ugly feeling hit me again. I slapped my palm across my mouth and dashed into the bathroom before opening my mouth and pouring out everything I had managed to eat last night into the toilet bowl.
I heaved dryly for a long time before I slumped down on the bathroom floor weakly while flushing the toilet.
I have been having these morning nausea attacks three weeks after I returned from France. At first I had thought it was poisoning or something like that and I had also thought it would go away. But it’s still happening every morning and I’m starting to get worried
I managed to drag myself into the shower where I had my bathand brushed my teeth after then I got dressed in just a pair of jeans and a crop top before making myself a simple breakfast in the kitchen.
? 8 HOURS LATER ?
I was sitting at the dinning ba-rely eating the food when door opened and Welchi walked in carrying a large bouquet of colorful flowers
“Hey, bestie. How’re you doing?” she greeted as she placed the bouquet right on the dinning table
“Where did you get that?” I asked, referring to the flowers
“I found them outside your door. Someone se-nt them to you” she replied and I tou-ched my forehead
“It’s Suho, he’s been se-nding me different bouquet of flowers everyday since I returned from France” I uttered
“But why is that bastard doing this?” she sneered and I flinched at her words
“Whoa, since when did you start referring to him as a bastard?” I asked with arched brows
“Because he is, can you believe he broke into my apa-rtment with his dirty thu-gs and threatened to ra-pe me if I didn’t tell him your location…?” she rasped and my eyes wide-ned
“Suho tried to ra-pe you?!”
“No, he wasn’t the one who tried to. The guy had blonde hair and blue eyes” she mouthed and I gasped again
“Ritchie…” I whispered
“Huh? Who’s Ritchie?”
“He’s the guy who tried to ra-pe you. He’s British” I replied and she snorted while rolling her eyes
“Whatever, just tell me why Suho has been se-nding you scented flowers. Does he want something from you?”
“He wants me to say yes to him” I muttered
“Yes to what exactly?”
“He asked me to marry him” I remarked
“What!” she shrieked with wide eyes and I smiled ruefully
“Yes, Welchi. Suho actually proposed to me with a blinding diamond ring” I mouthed and her eyes kept widening even more
“B….But what was your answer?”
“I told him that I nee-ded time to think about it” I replied and she huffed
“So you mean to tell me that you’re actually still considering his proposal? Which means there’s a possibility that you’ll say yes to him?!” she gasped out and I pushed my food away before getting on my feet and walking to the kitchen as she trailed behind me.
I opened the refrigerator and pulled out a carton of orange jui-ce before pouring it into a gl@$$
“Well, yeah. I might say yes to him” I shrugged while sipping the jui-ce
“I can’t believe this. Why are so many crazy things happening? I don’t un-derstand what’s going on in Seoul anymore” she breathed and my brows arched
“What do you mean by that?”
“When was the last time you went to JP?” she inquired and I scoffed
“Why would I go there? I don’t work for JP anymore and besides I could run into Baekhyun there and I really don’t want that. I don’t know how I’ll be able to face him after how he destroyed my heart” I uttered and she exhaled
“Just tell me what’s been happening since I left for Singapore” I added
“Nothing much happened after you left for Singapore but a lot has happened since you returned from France” she remarked
“Okay, things like..?” I prompted and she hesitated
“Well the first shocking thing that happened is when Taeyang, Beomgyu and Jimin left THE VORTEX”
“Wait, what do you mean by they left? Did they terminate their contracts with JP?” I gasped and she nodded
“Yes, I can’t believe you didn’t hear about it. It’s been all over the news for weeks now, especially because they refused to say why they’re leaving. Taeyang is not even in the country anymore and both Beomgyu and Jimin have been recently sp-otted with their families in their home towns”
I blinked severally, trying to absorb it all
“But that’s only a bit of what’s happening. There’s more” she muttered before bi-ting her lower li-p nervously
“I really don’t know how to tell you this, Hyuna. I don’t know if you can handle it” she uttered with a scared look and I scoffed
“How bad could it possibly be? Just spill it out” I urged and she exhaled de-eply
“Baekhyun and Mia are getting married” she blurted out and I heard a loud bang in my head
I placed a hand on my che-st and staggered back a bit
“What?” I asked in a voice I ba-rely recognized as my own. I had thought that my heart couldn’t get broken any further than it already was but I was dead wrong
“You heard me well, Hyuna. They announced their wedding the second week after your return. As a matter of fact; their engagement pa-rty is taking place right now as we speak!” she rasped out and I stood frozen, mouth agape, eyes wide and watery
“No….” I whispered, shaking my head negatively
“Tell me you’re lying, Welchi. Tell me it’s a damn lie!” I screamed, gripping my hair with both hands
“It’s not a lie, Hyuna. The engagement pa-rty is taking place at Baekhyun’s house right now. The top notch people of Seoul were all invited; celebrities, wealthy business men and women and so on, even their families have conse-nted to the union. The wedding is on the 30th of this new month” she uttered as the tears kept streaming down my cheeks
“But why? Why is Baekhyun marrying her? And why so soon?!!” I cried
“Because they’re having a baby” she replied and I crashed to the floor, breathing heavily
Mia is pregnant for Baekhyun??
When did this happen?
How did it happen?
He slept with her……. He lied to me; I thought that we had our first times together that day in Montpelier
His words came flashing back into my br@in;
? “My first time WITH YOU was special” ?
I gasped in realization; how did I miss that?
Even a fool could have read the true meaning of that se-ntence
“Hyuna! Hyuna” Welchi called,
rushing over to me. She tried to touch me but I moved away
“Hyuna, please take it easy. I know all this is too much but what can you do? Mia is pregnant for Baekhyun and they’re getting married by the end of this month. You nee-d to forget about Baekhyun and move on with your life” she enthused and I slowly got back on my feet again while still shaking my head
“I’m not moving on until I see with my own two eyes that HE has moved on. I want him to look me in the eyes and tell me that he doesn’t love me anymore or that he never did as he wrote in the letter” I mouthed in a surprisingly calm voice
“So how do you intend to get to him?” she inquired but I ignored her and walked out of the kitchen
“Hyuna! Hyuna where are you going?!” she called after me as I pulled the door open and walked out of the apa-rtment
“Please don’t do anything stupid!!” she added but I kept on going.
I nee-ded to see everything for myself. Only then will I be truly
convinced that there’s no future with Baekhyun.
? ONE HOUR LATER ?
The taxi pulled over in front of the mansion’s hu-ge gate and I quickly alighted. I made my way inside the premises, there were flashy cars of all colours, shapes and sizes parked in the vast compound.
I stepped into the foyer and a soft gasp escaped my li-ps when I saw a gathering of about 40
persons, both male and female. Everyone was dressed extravagantly in tailored suits and evening gowns
I scanned the living room from the foyer; I recognized a couple of actors and actresses, TV hosts and Idols, even all 5 members of BLACK VELVET were there. Then I saw HIM. My breath hitched and I blinked severally.
He was standing right beside Mia who was dressed in a long hand-less red gown with glittering jeweleries all over her. He was talking to J-Park and two other older people – a man and a woman
“Baekhyun….” I whispered with my heart aching anew. He was dressed in a perfectly tailored navy blue suit and his hair…….he had changed it back to it’s natural shiny black but he was sporting a different haircut now. Instead of making his hair fall over his forehead like he usually did; he had pushed it up in a swoosh which left his forehead totally exp-osed.
He looked so different; more masculine and exotic.
“Hyuna?..” a familiar male voice called and I turned to the direction to see Suho striding towards me. He was dressed in a shiny black suit with his hair gelled back, looking handsome as always
“What’re you doing here?” he asked softly when he got to me but before I could reply him; Mia and I made eye contact and her eyes wide-ned slightly. She quickly left Baekhyun’s side without him noticing and sashayed over to where Suho and I stood, facing me as we glared at each other
“What the hell are you doing here?” she sneered
“This is my engagement pa-rty and only high cl@$$ people are invited. There is absolutely no room for rats like you” she added spitefully
“I may be a rat but at least I’m not a desperate daddy’s girl who keeps throwing herself on a man that doesn’t want her. I don’t know how you got Baekhyun to agree to marry you; but I’m very sure he’s not doing it because he wants to” I rasped with blazing eyes and she laughed hysterically
“Oh, is that want you think? That I’m forcing Baeky to marry me? I never knew you were this delusional. Baeky loves me, he proposed to me and now we’re getting married. We’re going to have lots of beautiful children and live happily ever after together. I’m sure you must have heard that I’m carrying his first child, right?” she asked vacuously and I blinked rapidly to for-ce the angry tears back
“You nee-d to leave this place, this night is a very special night for Baeky and I so I won’t let you ruin it” she added
“Guards!!” she called out and three men came running over to her
“I want you to bundle that thing and throw her out like the garbage she is” she ordered, pointing at me and the men surged towards me but Suho blocked them by standing in between us
“Whoa, whoa, there’s no nee-d for that Mia. I’m taking Hyuna home” he uttered and turned back to me
“Let’s go..” he mouthed and tried to hold my arm but I refused
“No, I’m not leaving until Baekhyun comes here and asks me to by himself. Tell your fiance to stop being a coward and face me, Mia. Let him come over here, look me straight in the eyes and tell me that he never loved me!” I gasped out
“Baekhyun! Get over here and tell me that everything you wrote down on the letter is true! I dare you to say it to my face! So c’mon, I’m waiting!!” I yelled causing all the guests to turn to us, including Baekhyun
His eyes wide-ned slightly when he saw me but he quickly shook it off and strode across to us. His eyes going from me to Suho and Mia
“Why are you causing such a scene?” he asked me and a tear rolled down my cheek
“Baekhyun…” I called in a wavering voice, I tried to walk closer to him but Suho held me back and Mia held Baekhyun too
“Why are you doing this to me?” I cried, looking pleadingly into Baekhyun’s eyes. I searched his face for the tiniest sign that would tell me that he was clearly being for-ced or blackmailed into this but I found none
“Did you actually never love me like you said? Was everything we had just a lie? What happened to all our plans of spending the rest of our lives together? What happened to BaekHyuna?” I asked slowly and I noticed a flash of anguish flit throu-ghhis eyes but it was so short, it didn’t last for more than 2 seconds
“You nee-d to leave, as you can see; I’ve very happy without you so please…………leave” he uttered with his voice cracking at the last pa-rt of the se-ntence. I shook my head negatively and he exhaled
“Will someone please take her out of here….?” he added, looking around and Suho grabbed my arm
“Let’s go, Hyuna. You’ve embarr@$$ed yourself enough” he rasped into my ear before dragging me along with him.
I saw Mia smile victoriously from the corner of my eye as I followed Suho out of the mansion. He took me to a black car and opened the door for me
“Get in…” he mouthed and I obeyed wordlessly. I was too tired to argue, I didn’t want to fight it anymore
I sat in the backseat of the car and he sat beside me. I stayed quiet throu-ghout the drive, I was angry, so so angry. I wanted to hurt Baekhyun as much as he had hurt me and I knew there was one way to do that. Give him a taste of his own medicine.
“We’re here” Suho announced when we got to my building. I slowly alighted and walked silently all the way to my apa-rtment before stopping at the door and turning abruptly to Suho who had followed me all the way up
“I accept….” I uttered and he blinked “Huh?”
“I’ll marry you; I’ll be your wife” I replied and his eyes beamed
“Are you sure?” he asked slowly
“I’ve never been more sure about anything in my entire life” I remarked and his smile wide-ned
“Well that’s great” he mouthed
“I’m so glad I brou-ght this with me” he added and pulled out the diamond ring from his pocket before gently reaching for my hand and sliding the ring on to my finger
“I promise to make you the happiest and most envied woman in Asia” he breathed and I faked a smile
I was pla-ying a dangerous game but I didn’t care; I wanted to hurt Baekhyun
“Suho, we have to get married as soon as possible” I enthused and
he nodded quickly
“Yes I totally agree but when do you have in mind?” he asked and I smiled deviously
“On the 30th of this month”
Baekhyun and Mia won’t be the only couple having a wedding on the 30th. If he can move on so quickly then so can I
