Chapter 10 - A confrontation

After Haneul left, Jisoo received a call.

"How did you know no I was missing you right now?" Jisoo said emotionally.

" Huh? Does that stupid made you cry again?" Taeha asked on the phone call.

"Forget that and tell me, when is your company giving you a leave?" She asked back.

" It's not easy to get a leave for an Idol who just debuted four months ago,specially when the group's condition is not going well, but I am doing my best to persuade them." he answered.

" So they want their artist to get even more sick mentally? Just tell them that you are not fine and you need rest." She said.

"After working for hours, all we are getting is disappointed, be thankful that they are letting me call atleast."

"So if I give you an Idea ?

Your group will become popular, and they will send you to Busan without thinking even twice."

"But how?" Taeha asked.

"You know we have a dance group?

It never looses any competition.

Tell them you want to participate through our school, just make them believe that it can make a huge change for your group, then they will send you here on their own will."

"It's like killing two birds with one stone,

Your Idea is great but I don't know if it will work or not, anyways I will make sure, they send me there anyhow." Taeha replied.

"Why are you so eager to come here?" She asked.

"Because you are there"....

With a pause he added, "Just kidding, you know my healing spot, I need to go there as soon as possible, only then my heart will be at rest."

"Oh! The place you took me every time to?"She asked.

"Yes, I need to go now, they are submitting phones, bye, take care." He replied.

Days were passing, but nobody talked to Jisoo, she also gave up on going after Haneul.

Although, Haneul was not talking to her, but he was feeling bad for her.

" Hyeri, I think Jisoo has finally realised her mistake, can't we forget everything and give her another chance?" He asked Hyeri one day.

" But what if she do it again?" She replied.

"There's no chance, she knows that I won't trust her at all."

"Ok fine, but for this time only," She said.

Later Haneul went to her,

"Jisoo can we talk for a moment?"

She followed him to the rooftop,her face was pale and lips were dry.

"About what happened that day, let's forget about that, I know you won't do anything like that again, so let's just end this game of ignorance, since we are in the same group.

I don't know why, but I can't see you like that.

So let's just get back like we were used to be.

I, Hyeri, you and Hajoon, let's be friends again." Haneul said.

"I always put you in that position right? 'Let's forget everything', 'Let's be friends again', and stuff like that?

But I promise, it won't happen again, I will make sure it never happens again.

Thank you for giving me an other chance and sorry for causing you trouble,

I will say sorry to Hyeri too."

As she said, she went to Hyeri and apologised.

Although, Hyeri accepted her apology, but she was suspecious of Jisoo's behaviour at the same time.

Things were a bit awkward between them first, but they handled it naturally.

"Look! I got you macaroons," Haneul said to Hyeri in a cafe.

Hyeri, who should be exited about it went into deep thoughts, she remembered Jisoo saying that she likes macaroons.

"What's wrong, don't you like macaroons?

I thought girls like them." Haneul asked.

"No, I like them, thank you." She replied.

It was not the first time Hyeri felt that way,even when they were not talking to Jisoo, he was always talking about her, "why did she do that to us?" , " she was not like that before," and stuff like that.

It was a weekend next day so Hyeri called Jisoo.

"Can we meet at the playground near our school today?" She asked Jisoo on the phone call.

Weather reports were saying, that it was going to rain, so Jisoo asked her to postpone it for the next day.

But Hyeri insisted, saying it was about Haneul.

"Ok lets meet briefly." Jisoo replied.

Hyeri called Haneul then, "let's meet at the playground, I called Jisoo as well."

"Suddenly?" Haneul asked.

"I need to clear some things, just be there at 4:00." She replied.

As planned Haneul went to the playground at 4:00, Hyeri and Jisoo were already there, he could see that they were arguing from afar.

As he moved towards them, he saw Jisoo, who was about to throw hand on Hyeri, he came in between and grabbed her wrist.

His eyes were full of anger.

"Haneul, she....she obligated me to raise hand, please trust me, she is all fake."

"Stop it, Jisoo, that's enough, I am tired of repeating the same things ," he said furiously.

"What kind of black magic she did on you? Why is it almost impossible for you to believe me?

Atleast, for the sake of your first love, please believe me." She said while sheding tears.

"First love?

You know what Jisoo?

You are forcing me to say this, so listen carefully,

Confessing my feelings for you back then was my biggest mistake, since that day I didn't even get a sound sleep.

When, we finally became friends again, I thought things might get better, but I was wrong.

It made my life even more miserable, You made my life miserable Jisoo." He answered furiously.

Jisoo felt like, her world was completely shattered.

"Let's go Hyeri," Haneul said.

"Don't leave me Haneul, please don't...," Jisoo said while grabbing his hand.

He released his hand so forcefully,that she touched the ground.

He didn't even looked back and left with Hyeri.

As they went out of the playground.

Haneul was completely broken, Hyeri hugged and comforted him.

"It's ok Haneul, it ended up for the best."

"It's not ok Hyeri.... it's not ok, I thought everything was going well....but it was not, she turned my life upside down in just a single month."

"Come on, let's go, I will treat you something sweet, it will make you feel better," She insisted.

"I am sorry Hyeri, since the day we started dating, I didn't even get to take you to a proper date, I always talked about dance and my conflicts with Jisoo," Haneul replied.

As he felt a little better, she took him to a bakery.

" It is not a 5 star bakery, but it is comfort place, this is the place I always come to whenever I crave something sweet." She said.

He nodded but he was visibly lost.

"Let's order," he said.

On the other hand, Jisoo was still at the playground.

Sometime later, she noticed that the clouds were getting dense, she decided to go to a place where the rain's sound won't reach her.

Her ears were ringing with Haneul's words that she could not hear the sound of back to back calls she was getting.

When Haneul and Hyeri were waiting for their order, he noticed that it was about to rain, he was looking out from the window again and again.

As Hyeri went to the wash room, Haneul received a call, "Why is he calling me now?" He said to himself.

"Hello, this is Taeha, where is Jisoo right now?

I called her many times, but she is not picking up, it is the first time, that she didn't pick up my calls.

Is she with you?.....

Why are not you speaking anything Haneul?

I asked, Is she with you right now?"

Haneul got even more concerned, while trembling he said, " We were at the playground, I left already, she might still be there."

"What? Why is she out when it's going to rain soon?

Did you guys faught?

You know her phobia, why did you leave her there alone knowing everything?

Send me the address as soon as possible."

Taeha asked desperately.

Haneul wanted to go after her, but he doesn't want to leave Hyeri alone at the same time.
