When Your Pain Becomes Mine

Chapter 159



Chapter 159: Chapter 159.

“Hey, Gyeonhui…” Her voice became even lower as she whispered.

He approached her so tightly that he could feel her breathing. However, he stopped for a second and started laughing out loud.

“Don’t worry. I know how to act properly in public.” He said while stepping back away from her.

“What, what?”

Sun was embarrassed and punched his chest.

“… Really?”

“… Oh…”

The two of them were surprised as they looked at her fist and his chest at the same time.

“I’m sorry; I was so embarrassed…”

The embarrassed Sun hurriedly apologized to him. However, he gently held her hand and put it on his own chest.

“You did a good job. Hit me if I do something wrong to you or make you angry, okay?”

Sun was surprised and looked at him quietly. He started speaking with a grim face.

“Stop saying that you’re okay anymore, okay?”

Hearing his sincere words, Sun nodded carefully.

“Let’s go in.”

He smiled and led her.

His big hands gently held her hand.

His firm hand that held hers put her mind more at ease.

Her elevated heartbeat started calming down slowly.

***

The late afternoon in Blue Rose Veterinary Hospital.

“It’s easy for Schofield to have ticks in his ears, so you have to wipe them out often with a cotton ball.”

Eunwoo explained to the cat’s owner while he was showing the cat’s ear.

“Okay… okay…”

However, the owner of the cat already had a crush on him because he was so handsome and kind. She was swooning over his every word.

“Like this…”

The owner of the cat wasn’t paying attention to the cat, just Eunwoo. He had to show how to wipe them out to her personally.

“Drrr.’

When the cat’s owner left, Eunwoo finally exhaled a sigh of relief.

His clinic was busy even on the weekend, but since the weather was getting warmer, there were not a lot of people entering.

“Is everyone going out and having fun?”

The outside view over the window looked so peaceful.

People in light clothing were coming and going on the street under the warm, spring sunlight.

He smiled bitterly, took out his phone, and looked at the address book.

He soon put down his phone with a long sigh when he looked at Sun’s name and her phone number for a long time.

“Bzzzzz.”

At that moment, his phone rang.

He was a little surprised and confirmed the caller. However, his face immediately hardened. A phone number that wasn’t saved in his phone, but one he could never forget appeared. It was Chaekyeong.

When Gyeonhui and Sun watched a movie, they ate dinner later. They finally stopped at the cafe where they used to go often in the past.

“I’ll order some coffee.”

Sun made him sit and stood in front of the cashier.

“Two Americanos, please.”

“The same one but darker?” The owner of the cafe said while smiling at her.

“Yes, please.”

She appreciated the owner of the cafe who had always remembered her order. However, she frowned soon after.

“Why did I choose this movie… hah…”

Sun blamed herself all day long.

After all, she thought the movie would be exciting and romantic; it wasn’t the movie she expected at all. It was a pretty provocative romantic movie.

She realized that she was entirely manipulated by the movie poster and the advertisement from the firm distributor.

“I didn’t know that you like this kind of movie… haha.”

Gyeonhui teased her whenever there was an erotic scene in the movie.

“Why didn’t you tell me before? I’m sure it’s better to feel it rather than just watching it.”

Hearing his mean joke, her face blushed even more while she was watching the movie.

Fortunately, the inside of the movie was dark. Otherwise, Gyeonhui would have teased Sun more.

“I’m sure he would tease me for a month about this. Hah…”

She exhaled a long sigh and returned to her seat, expecting his teasing would be for a while.

“I’ve ordered your coffee. Americano, right.?”

Sun said it in a bold tone as if nothing had happened.

“Did you? Okay. Thank you.”

However, unlike what she had expected, he was only looking down at his phone with a subdued expression.

“What’s wrong?”

“No, it’s nothing. I’ve just gotten a call.”

He was lost in thought for a while.

It was already past five o’clock in the afternoon.

Even after a while, he couldn’t pay attention to the conversation he was having with Sun.

He only answered a few times, and he looked like he was thinking about something.

“Is it because of the call you got earlier?”

“Sorry?”

“You don’t look good.”

“I’m sorry. I just have something in my mind.”

“Don’t you need to go?”

“… No, I’m fine.”

Hearing his hesitating answer, she knew he had to go.

“You have to go. I know you have something to deal with.”

“I’m fine.”

“No, you’re not. I can read your face, so don’t lie to me.”

Sun smiled and started speaking again. “I’m really fine, so don’t worry about me. I can meet you tomorrow, and we have a lot of time next week too.”

“Sun…”

Gyeonhui struggled and slurred his words.

After a moment, he finally nodded.

“I’m really sorry.”

“Please don’t be. I’m fine.”

Although Sun smiled at him, she also couldn’t hide her regret.

“Let’s go, I’ll drive you.”

“No, I’ll just walk home. It’s close to here, and I’ll also have to draw some designs here.”

However, Gyeonhui still hesitated to leave her.

“Go on. I’m fine.”

“Hah… okay. I’ll call you tonight.”

“Okay.”

Sun did let him leave while smiling at him.

‘Dring.’

As soon as she heard the door open and close, she exhaled a long sigh of frustration.

“Here it is, two Americanos.”

Sun looked at the coffee for a while without saying anything.

***

You might be surprised.
When Gyeonhui came out of the cafe, he confirmed Chaekyeong’s text again.

“Don’t be late. It’s at 7 pm.”

His face hardened.

He had to merge with DNBM as soon as possible.

He felt so sorry to Sun, but he had to go at least tonight.

He quickly called Ojae.

He waited for Ojae to answer the phone for a long time, but no answer arrived.

“What the hell is he doing?”

Gyeonhui became impatient and frowned.

At that time, Ojae called him back.

“Hello”

“Why are you not answering the phone?”

“… me? I’m on a date with Eunyoung.”

He barely heard Ojae’s voice because of the background noise.

“It’s so noisy there. Where are you now?”

“That’s…”

“Nevermind. Just come to Lasung Hotel right now.”

“Now?”

“Yes. Right now.”

“Why are we going to Lasung Hotel all of a sudden?”

“We’re meeting the CEO of DNBM tonight.”

“Okay. I’m on my way.” Ojae didn’t ask him anymore because he knew what it meant.

When Gyeonhui hung up the phone with Ojae, he bit his lower lip tightly.

‘Please, please understand me tonight.’

Gyeonhui hurriedly got in his car.
