"What are you doing!"
Just as Yoongi was about to strike my neck, Jungkook countered with his body. Yoongi fell to the ground, and thankfully, my neck was left with only a small wound.
"Is this funny, it's always like this
When I ask him to prove it, he keeps saying it's a sin
"It is the people who are sacrificed that are not there."
"······."
"Doing this with trauma
"Please stop. It's disgusting."
The Empress Dowager simply stared at Jeongguk in silence, seemingly free of guilt. It was scary. Everything. Jeongguk glared at the Empress Dowager, then turned around to check on me. "Are you okay?" I nodded slightly at Jeongguk's question.
Yoongi, seemingly regaining consciousness, grabbed his head and struggled to his feet. Then he immediately looked around, trying to find me. He stumbled toward me, searching for me. I instinctively flinched and stepped back, and Yoongi stopped walking at my actions.
"··· My lady···."
"······."
"······."
"..don't come."
I was so scared. I was scared of the Empress Dowager who had ordered my death, but I was most scared of Yoongi. At the same time, I was trembling with anger. How could you do this to me? Every moment Yoongi had confessed his love flashed through my mind. After what had just happened, I realized: Min Yoongi wasn't sincere to me.
I said nothing. I just looked at Yoongi and shed tears. It was all a lie. Everything I'd said and done up until now had been a lie. Had I ever been sincere? No, I guarantee it. Yoongi never loved me.
"My lady, listen to me. Oh, my lady.
It's all that woman's doing and I,"
"Don't lie, Yoongi.
You don't love me."
"What are you talking about.. why don't I tell you
I love you, you're really the only one for me."
"Then, who is Yuna?"
"······."
Yoongi didn't respond to my words. Ultimately, my prediction was correct. I knew what had happened before without even having to ask. Yoongi had always loved someone named Yeon-ah, not me.
"··· That's right, it's all correct."
".. My lady."
I ran straight out of the castle. Yun-gi's body froze, unable to catch me. It must have been because of Yeon-ah.
"Don't worry, Ms. Kim Yeo-ju.
I will protect you well."
"······."
"But, this time, I'm a bit
I'm disappointed. This time.
I thought it was real."
"······."
"Are you curious?"
Even though I didn't answer, Jeongguk looked at me when the traffic light briefly stopped, then when it turned green again, he focused on driving and said, "That's exactly what I thought."
He said he'd never seen me as someone completely different from that Yeon-ah. He didn't even know if he truly loved her or not. This was the fifth time, and he'd spent quite a bit of time preparing to forget her the previous time.
"Min Yeon-ah. Five years ago, Min Yoon-gi
"She was the first human bride."
"······."
"We both loved each other very much,
Min Yeon-ah died from the fire
He died. Min Yoongi.
To forget Ms. Min Yeon-ah, I found another bride.
I heard it, but I couldn't love it.
They're all dead."
“Just like what happened to me earlier···?”
"yes."
A faint chill ran down my spine. I could only imagine the suffering Yoon-gi must have endured over the years, as the Empress Dowager had threatened to prove it to him.
"Min Yoongi, I tried to die."
"yes···?"
I suffered terribly. Perhaps it was because of Min Yeon-ah, but I slowly went mad, feeling guilty about the four brides who died unjustly because of my own feelings. Then, I met Kim Yeo-ju. I ran into her by chance on the street, and Min Yoon-gi went to see the Empress Dowager, saying he wanted to try just one more time.
You said our first meeting wasn't at a club? But I don't remember meeting Yoongi then. Jungkook said it was obvious. I'd just been watching him for a year after that.
"I made a hasty choice and ended up in the same situation again
It must have seemed like something was going to happen again.
So, even from afar, I came to see Ms. Kim Yeo-ju
I learned more about it."
"······."
"After that, Kim Yeo-ju knew
Here's the content. Just watch for a year.
It is quite significant that he showed up while doing so.
It must have been a big decision, Min Yoongi."
I love Kim Yeo-ju more than I thought.
"The heroine...?"
"Long time no see. How have you been?"
"What are you doing here?
"I didn't leave my luggage behind again,"
"Seokjin."
"··· uh?"
"It's outrageous and shameless
I know... I'm here.."
"What, what are you crying about?! Tears streamed down my face, eyes reddening in an instant. Kim Seok-jin was startled and grabbed my shoulder, asking what was wrong. I shook my head, saying it was nothing."
"You know I don't have any friends."
"······."
"But I have some work to do, so I'll be away for a while
I had to leave home, but I had nowhere to go.
"But can I stay for just a week?"
"··· Of course it will happen. But really
"Are you sure nothing is wrong?"
"··· huh."
I forced a smile and entered the building. I could have gone to my other friends, but I wanted someone Yoongi and Jungkook knew, so I went to Kim Seokjin.
While I was trying to calm my mind, Jungkook told me to stay at Seokjin's. He told me to go to my part-time job, meet up with friends, and try my best to forget about Yoongi.
"The kids miss you so much."
"······."
"When you have time, come out with me.
Even though I haven't been there yet, I still go out and play a lot."
"Okay, let's do that."
I resent Yoongi so much, but it's been a while since I've been through it, and it's an experience I won't easily forget. Most importantly, I really like Yoongi. But in this situation, it's hard for me to understand and care for him.
I'm so scared of Yoongi right now.
Hey Min Yoongi, you bastard! (Good intentions)
