Chapter 56 – Weak
SoMi stood was good with not caring, being blunt, cold and defensive. She wasn’t someone who strived on her emotions and feelings, so she tried pushing them aside and only focusing on one task. She was going to figure out what the hell Johnny was thinking. What she didn’t know yet but as that this was going to be a big mistake.
She didn’t bother to knock; instead she pushed the door open and stepped right into his room before she slammed the door shut.
“Can you at least knock?” Johnny groaned. He was standing by the open window, looking down at the Han River.
“Are you stupid?” She hissed. “You can’t break our engagement just like that. What would your parents, my grandfather, and everybody else say?” She reminded.
She knew he didn’t care about his parents’ opinion or her grandfather’s for that matter. She did know that Johnny lived the spotlight; he loved positive media attention, galas and parties. Breaking his engagement with her would only temper and hurt his image.
“I don’t care anymore.” He answered, his head snapped back in her direction. His answer disappointed her. She expected some sort of willy throw back, something only Johnny Suh would think of.
“I seriously don’t get why he tries.” She whispered under her breathe. It was Taeyong’s wasted efforts and honestly, if Johnny was going to act like this, she would have been fine. This would have made it even easier on her.
She would help the Dragon without being engaged to him, hence taking out a lot of the time that the two of them would spend together.
Maybe she just needed space away from him to sort out her thoughts, and maybe she just wanted to be with him. She didn’t know anymore.
“Look I was supposed to come here and yell at you for being such a bipolar, unpredictable. I was supposed to be angry and upset.”
“Why the hell would you care SoMi? I thought you’ll be happy when I broke up our engagement. Isn’t that what you wanted in the first place? You never wanted the marry some stranger, or be stuck for the rest of your life. If anyone, you of all people should be happy.”
“What gives you the right to accuse that?” She snapped. “Haven’t you been attentive lately, or are you really that hook on ki||ing everyone that gets in your way to open your eyes!” She screamed furiously wanting to grab any object in her hand and throw it at him. She wanted to demolish everything in her way.
“Of course, I haven’t ki||ed you, like I said I would.”
Sh cringed at how harsh his words were and the great effect the had on her. Her brows merged and her eyes narrowed at him.
“Then why haven’t you done it yet?” She waited for his answer, but he didn’t reply and smirked. “You can’t can you? Why’s that?”
“It’s because I fu*cking need you! You pathetic woman! Don’t you get it SoMi? It’s because I care, so I’m going to push you away, I’m going to throw you to a pack of wolves to be eaten alive; as long as I stop caring and worrying about you.” He confessed.
Her face that was contorted with anger a few seconds ago eased into disbelief.
He stopped closer to her; she gasped distancing herself from him. She couldn’t get cornered by him again. She knew what would happen if she gets cornered. She was supposed to lash out on him, not hear his confession.
“I can’t care SoMi, because the second I do, I get weak. I was weak once and it got your parents ki||ed, if I’m weak now I’ll get my members ki||ed. I just can’t.”
“So, this is all about you not wanting to look weak, and you’re using me as an excuse.” She accused. Not hearing out what he was truly trying to say. Perhaps her inner desires of wanting to h@ťě this man took over her, because the functioning part of her brain told her to stop and listen, it told her that he cares for her, but she couldn’t. She swinned too deep to return.
“SoMi, that’s not what I’m trying to say.” He interjected.
