The bus stop was sure far from the street we were and the buses were taking their time to get to where we were.

What time would we get home today? I couldn't stop thinking about the street with my face allover it.

I turned to look at Ha Joon by my side sitting close and smiling like a child to a lollipop. I had been so occupied with finding 'Seon Jo' that I never even reason the life i could live now with the man who has always cared and would always care for me.

“What is the message you're trying to pass to others with your painting? ” I stared attentively at him.

“Well, if you find your happiness, Keep it! But to you? I like you. ” he smiled at me who couldn't help but smile back at him before looking back to my shoes.

Happiness, keep it. Sure I was happy with Seon Jo but I hadn't thought about how happier I was with Yeong Su, all I thought was the time I experienced with Seon Jo and not the time that passed by with Yeong Su or Dong Yi and Min Soo.

Yeong Su kept me company and made me happy while trying to make another experience for both of us but I, so typically me was looking and hoping for someone who might never show up.

That's right! He might had been the one who sent me the portrait of the bracelet!!! How could I have missed the fact that he was the only one who remembered his past life?

Right now, I just want to feel love and happiness and all I needed right now was the courage to find it and keep it.

As the bus stopped in front of us, Ha Joon stood and held out his hand for me, which I took before he led me to the bus until I found the courage to stop in my track. Noticing my attitude, he worriedly asked

“Hey, What's wrong? ” with care and worry audible in his voice, I looked up shaking my head gently, “ Ha Joon, I'm sorry, can you leave without me?

There's something I have to do. ” I requested and he agreed with a little disappointed and a smile and a nod muttering a “nng” .

After finding a sit inside the bus, he waved me good bye and gestured to me to call him which I responded in a wave and a nod. Having to wait extra fifteen minutes for another bus, I quickly hailed a taxi.

I thought about everything he had done for me, sending meals at the office through a courier and stealing me during breaks for a getaway or the time he took me around Seoul to his favorite spots or the words and gestures when he dropped me home every night... I was blind to think he saw me like a friend, too blind looking for someone else.

Tears threatened to fall just thinking that I had been neglecting an obvious picture that he didn't, never did and never will see me as a friend from a forgotten world. The driver stepped on it like he knew that I wanted to see someone so bad that my heart ached for his face.

“We are at your bus stop ma'am. ” the driver announced from his sit and almost immediately paid before I stood up and left hurriedly towards my mentally pictured destination.

Just a little more, a little more and his face will be looking at me, run a little more distance, call him out and... Woah!!!!

I looked at the stone i just tripped over, my broken phone, the scattered items and pain flooded with tears poured down like a water fall. Although I didn't want to, but the pain was more than I could bear.

How come things don't work for me like I want to? Something bad always happen. Why me? Why can't I keep the happiness like others do? Who did I offend in my previous life??? Why can't I stop crying? Am I that hurt? Why can't the pain just go away?

“Vivian? ” I turned to see a blur figure running towards me and though I couldn't see the person, I could tell from the way he ran that he cared and worried me and that person should and would be....

“Yeong Su ah! ” I called out in between sobs,

“What happened? Why are you sitting here like this?” he rushed to my side and when he saw my bleeding ankle, he picked up my bag and began to gather my scattered belongings into it before lifting me up like a bride without a second thought.

“What are you doing here by this time? ” his face showed that he didn't like or supported the fact that I was hurt. He hated the sight of me being hurt.

“I was going to see my.... ” I said softly in between sobs but he interrupted low-key angry.

“At least could you be more careful when I'm not around than you are when I am. What if I wasn't on time? What if you were robbed or even in more danger than this? Do you think Seoul is that safe at night! Why isn't the person you're going to see even coming to pick you up? Is he that lacking in home training or too busy to come for you at the bus stop at least? I wonder how people bring up their children. You could have called me at least, so that I'll.... ” he fumed in anger as I watched him surprised.

Yep, I had heard of people being unintentionally jealous of themselves, who would have guessed that I'd see one in real life. It is funny for the record, and very satisfying.

“Can you just shut up and let me finish? ” I said when I was tired to of seeing this one man drama and surprised Yeong Su stopped his ranting and stood still to me he was trying to help.

When I noticed his attention was solely on me, I tightened my arms around his neck settling comfortably in his arms.

“Who said I am going to meet a man? Well.. I am but I was coming to see you, Genius! I heard you were back and couldn't wait to see you, because I missed you so much and on my way I tripped over a stone. ”

“But you were crying.... ” he answered dumbfounded.

She was coming to see him?! She missed him like he missed her?! But what was the tears for? It was the tears that tripped him off.

“My... my... legs were hurting and bleeding, my phone looked broken too and you? You could be busy to allow me in... ” I trying as much as possible not let the cat off the bag while under his gaze that was too close for my own clarity.

“You know that's never going happen. You can come to me anytime, anywhere and any... ”

“... how? ”

“Yes anyhow. I'll never shut my doors to you.” he assured. Does he realize that he is staring right in to my eyes so close to my face?

“But you were really coming to see me? At this time?” he said as I sensed a happy tone coming from him as he continued to walk.

“Yeah, why do I have a feeling you're about to say something silly?" I joked narrowing my brows curiously.

“You know going to your boss's house by this time is unprofessional.. anything you wanted to tell me, you could wait till tomorrow of call me..” he professionally said. you always have time to be serious, don't you? Well be my guest

“I know but I just couldn't wait to see my boyfriend?” with one brow raised to the level of his IQ which by the way was really high.

“Still it's unprofess... Wait, what?” he wanted to correct me but he swallowed his words and stared at me like I was a million dollars deal.

“Oh, I talking about the meaning allocated to a male lover. ” I explained trying to avert his gaze.

“I know what that means, but why? ” he turned his head to my direction looking like he found a lost treasure.

“I guess I'd hate it if you tell me ‘hey that's my girlfriend over there!’ or if I see you hold another lady like this! Well of course, except she's dead or about to be. ” I told him with a chuckle that made him look at me again.

“That is very specific.” he tilted his head towards me and I ruffled his hair.

“Like the question I'm about to ask. Did you send that portrait of my bracelet to me and the hairpin too?” I questioned observing how his brown eyes shone crystal clear before her. I caught him, I did so I guessed he first saw me at the wedding.

“Wow, so you finally figured. ” he laughed not even hiding it, that means he wanted me to know he did but I was so hopefully clinging to the hope of finding Seon Jo that I never considered this fact.

“Some moment ago, you're the only one who knew of it except me, of course. ” he did not batter his lashes.

he had been obvious to me than I thought. “Our heart is like a bracelet, it can be gifted or stolen, shown or hidden, scattered or together, kept or thrown away, preserved or destroyed...” he said while walking with each word rhythmically fitting his steps.

“You should have just be specific, my heart is like a bracelet, it can be gifted or stolen, shown or hidden, scattered or together, kept or thrown away, preserved or destroyed... Yeong Su. ” I refined smiling at the way things were falling into place.

“So what are you going to do with it? ” he asked with his eyes fixed on his mansion a few feet away.

“I was thinking about throwing it away but I think I'd rather display it since it was gifted.... ” I joked clinging to him like my legs depended on it.

“Stolen... ” he whispered enough for me to hear,

“What?! ” I looked at him not knowing what to say.

“You stole it.” he looked at me for a moment like I was his greatest achievement before planting a soft kiss on my temple with happiness so visible in his eyes.

That she was his arms felt unreal but her weight he didn't think would be more than 45 before carrying proved otherwise and knowing she felt the same way made it all better.

“So now, how about going to my boyfriend's house by this time..? ” I asked when we came at the door.

“It's highly professional and very much appreciated.” he winked smiling like a child and I watched as he punched in his passcode without stress of my weight weighing on him.

I couldn't stop admiring this man's strength, every single time he displayed it, it would always get my attention like a thunder bolt. I guess some things never change.

“Hey?! ” I called out as he sat me on the tall stool next to the wine counter and kissed him on the Chee... Oh...?! That, was suppose to land on his cheek not his... lips.

Out of embarrassment of this silly mistake of mine, I forced my eyes closed to prevent him from seeing the shock in them. Not able to hold on any longer, I pulled my lips away but he held my face and pulled me closer saying,

“That's really brave, Madame...” he returned the kiss in hope of assuring her that she didn't need to be cautious or strive perfection in anything like planning perfect surprise kisses; even if it landed on his nose, he'd still love it. When he was sure she got the message, he slowly and softly released her lips with a finally peck on them that made him realize he didn't want to stop,

“What about our readers? ” I retracted my face from his hold, when he was about kiss me again,

“They are the ones enjoying it, so let them be and kiss me, ” he pulled me closer and let his emotion do the talking.

We heard the sounds of rain beating on the ceiling as our lips syncs to the beating of our heart..

“Even the heaven has given their blessing.” Yeong Su whispered on my lips with our kissing temple,

With euphoria oozing in the air, “I guess so. ” I answered looking at those rose petal like lips that made me forget that my ankle was bleeding and aching.

With all of my heart i looked into his eyes, a man I had decided to love all my life.

“I missed you so much! ” he told me as he returned the first aid to its place.

“How much exactly did you miss me? ” I watched as he walked back, carried me from the stool to the sofa, settling me carefully before sitting next to me.

“Twice as much as I thought I didn't.. ” he placed a longer kiss on my temple this time, saying more than words could.

There I knew that words aren't just enough to describe how much he loved me and that was all I needed to know right now.

THE END.
