Chapter 5 - 5 - Mistress
It was getting late. No stars appeared in Seoul\'s sky because the clouds covered it. The wind had started blowing. It looked like it was going to snow tonight.
Soo Yin walked down the sidewalk while crossing her arms to warm herself up. It was winter.
She was in such a hurry to leave that she forgot not to bring her coat this morning.
As usual, the girl always visited her father in the hospital right after she came home from work.
She had been waiting for a taxi in front of the hotel all this time, but the cab never showed up. So, she chose to wait while walking.
The sound of the horn startled her when she was engrossed in her thoughts. There was a black Maybach stopped right beside her.
Soo Yin turned her head to see the car. She seemed to know whose Maybach it was. Upon she observed carefully, it turned out that the car belonged to Dae Hyun.
She chose to continue her footsteps because she wasn\'t sure if the man was approaching her.
Dae Hyun honked the horn again when he saw that the girl didn\'t stop.
Because the horn\'s sound was so loud in her ears, Soo Yin finally stopped her steps and turned to the side.
\'Why is he coming to me?\' ~ Soo Yin grumbled.
"Come in!" Said Dae Hyun from inside the car as he rolled down the windshield to see Soo Yin.
"Leave me alone! I can go home by myself." Said Soo Yin as she turned her face. She was reluctant to see him.
"Let\'s go to the hospital together! Aren\'t you going to visit your father?" Said Dae Hyun.
"I\'ll be there myself." Soo Yin just glanced at Dae Hyun, who was sitting behind the wheel.
The snow slowly started to fall. It made the air temperature freeze.
"Come on, hurry up! It\'s already late, and the weather is also freezing." Said Dae Hyun.
Soo Yin thought for a moment. It was true that her body was frosty. If she lingered outside, she wasn\'t sure if she could go to work tomorrow.
Soo Yin finally accepted Dae Hyun\'s offer to go to the hospital together.
As soon as she got into the car, Soo Yin was silent and zipped her mouth. She also turned her face to the side so she couldn\'t see the man who had become her husband.
"Put it on!" Dae Hyun took off his coat and put it on Soo Yin\'s shoulder.
"No need to be overly attentive!" Said Soo Yin dryly.
"Do you hate me that much?" Dae Hyun asked as he started to drive the car.
Soo Yin just glanced at Dae Hyun without intending to answer his question. She hated him because that man married her at such a young age. Moreover, she was only a second wife.
She didn\'t want to be labelled as a mistress.
"I\'m sorry, Soo Yin. I might have made you suffer all this time," Said Dae Hyun.
Dae Hyun also didn\'t understand why all of a sudden, he wanted to marry Soo Yin when it was clear that he already had a wife and child. Dae Hyun wanted her desperately.
Soo Yin was silent and didn\'t want to answer Dae Hyun\'s words. She realised that he should be grateful that Dae Hyun helped her and her father from Mr Jang.
If Dae Hyun had not been around, her father would have been worse off.
But somehow, Soo Yin didn\'t want to thank that man. She really hated that Dae Hyun lied to her. If she had known from the beginning, this marriage would have never happened.
Soo Yin never dreamed of marrying a married man. Moreover, Soo Yin really hated someone who took someone\'s husband or mistress.
Even though Dae Hyun was older, age really didn\'t matter to her other than his status as a single man and not someone else\'s husband.
"Sorry for being dishonest to you about my status. I should have told you and your father earlier that I was married," Said Dae Hyun as his gaze focused on the street.
"Then just divorce me," Said Soo Yin.
"What if your father finds out?" Dae Hyun looked into her eyes deeply.
Soo Yin was silent and unable to answer his question. If her father found out, Soo Yin was just afraid that her father\'s condition would drop again.
"Soo Yin, just stay at the house we visited before," Said Dae Hyun.
"I\'ll be more comfortable sleeping in a rented house than in yours," Said Soo Yin curtly.
"Until when are you going to live there? Until your father finds out that we\'re not together?" Dae Hyun asked.
Soo Yin\'s father only knew that their relationship was just delicate.
"Do you always take your mistress over there?" Soo Yin quipped. She tried to change the subject.
"I\'ve never had an affair besides you, trust me, you\'re the only one," Said Dae Hyun.
Soo Yin glared at Dae Hyun then hit his shoulder.
"Did you mean I\'m your mistress?!" Soo Yin exclaimed with anger that was already mounting.
"Drop me off here!" Soo Yin shouted as she hit Dae Hyun\'s arm.
"Soo Yin, stop it! Or we will die together!" Dae Hyun screamed.
Dae Hyun suddenly stopped the car so that Soo Yin\'s head didn\'t hit the glass in front of her.
Soo Yin immediately took off her seat belt and was about to go outside. Dae Hyun hurriedly grabbed Soo Yin\'s hand and then...
Soo Yin was immediately frozen when Dae Hyun suddenly landed a kiss on her lips. Time seemed to stop. Her mind couldn\'t work anymore.
There was something she felt right now.
Dae Hyun drove the car back as he saw Soo Yin in silence.
"What are you doing?" Soo Yin shouted when she realised it.
"I think I like it." Said Dae Hyun casually.
Since the first time they met, Dae Hyun had already felt attracted to Soo Yin.
"Bullsh*t! A man like you must say and do the same thing with any woman you meet," Said Soo Yin while rubbing her lips roughly. She was disgusted by that sudden kiss.
"It\'s up to you to judge who I am. I\'m just telling you the truth," Said Dae Hyun.
\'I won\'t get entangled by a player like you.\' Soo Yin murmured in her heart as she believed that Dae Hyun had other mistresses out there.
She felt sorry for his wife for marrying an asshole like him.
Soo Yin insisted on finding out everything.
