HYERI'S FATHER

HYERI'S MOTHER  Right after our arrival in Japan, Mr.Park's driver has already waited for us or else we would get trouble getting into a taxi which is barely seen near the airport as it is a rush hour. Around two o'clock, we have safely arrived at Kronos Hotel belonged to Mr.Park. Our model also is still perfectly in shape, much to my pleasure and as for now, we just need to wait for Mr.Park to present our project and we will be off for good. I'm not sure how long this meeting could be but i hope we stay in this meeting room forever. Only God knows how nervous i am to meet my family today.No matter how nerve-wrecking it could be, somehow i cannot hide the feeling of missing them. I miss my handsome and caring daddy. Oh god, how i miss cooking with him and hear his lecturing on his various trick of cooking. I miss my oppa, my funny and evil oppa. I miss acting childishly around him and ask him to buy everything that i want. I still remember how silly i am when i acted sulky just because he refused to buy me a birkin by Hermes. I know the bag costs a fortune, but he's rich enough to even buy me a car. I miss my sister in law too. I love seeing her in her white nurse uniform. She looks so pretty and innocent just like an angel sent from heaven. Her soft voice and grace attitude could calm even the cruelest storm. Not to forget my cute little niece i have, Choi Dana. She was named after my late sister and this little angel is my sweetheart. How i miss seeing her smile. I bet she must have grown up beautifully by now, toddling and laughing, having no worries and no ideas how rough this world could be. Lastly, i am missing my mom too, my mom who hates me from the past scar, a scar that will never heal. No matter how much she hates the sight of me, i could help from the longing of holding her gaze even it was fueled by her hatred. I miss the sight of her, i never once forget how beautifully she aged, not like other women in her ages. Well, being a foreigner, an Italian to be exact, must help her to be still dazzling, even in her dawning age.A tap on my shoulder sends me back to a real world. I give a look to Jiyong who was tapping me just now and i realise he eyes me to the white screen behind Mr.Park. God, i must be spaced out for a while. After drinking my mineral water that already prepared on the table, i give my full attention back on Mr.Park's manager about the project.*****The meeting is finished early than i expected as Mr.Park needs to attend his wife's charity event in Osaka. We left the hotel before 6 and head to a shopping mall before going to my oppa's house. I need to buy a few toys and clothes for my sweetheart and Jiyong buys a few souviners to my family. I don’t buy any, instead i buy some Korean meat, several seafood, sashimi and other additional foods which i think my daddy would like it. It may look funny, or even inappropriate a bit, buying 'food supplies' to my family as if they are poor and don’t afford to buy any, but for me, i think it's the best thing i could have done for them, for my daddy to be exact. He's a retired chef, so they might bring him happiness as he can make his experiments on new recipes using them.We finally arrive at oppa's resident at 7.30 late in the evening and standing in front of his house scared the hell out of me. Only god knows how nervous i am now and my heart beats faster than a clock ticking. My feet freeze and glue to the ground, making me standing like a statue in front of oppa's huge gate.'Are you okay,hyeri? God, you look pale!' Jiyong exclaims, looking straight into my eyes before checking me out from head to toe.

I keep frozen on my ground, unable to neither move nor speak. The tension rises like a tsunami, slamming every nerve in my system mercilessly.

'We can go back if you're not ready for this.' A sudden slow and consoling tone from Jiyong snaps my conscious mind back.

Taking a deep breath, i look into his eyes and reply, 'it's okay. I'm fine.'

I put all the plastic bags onto the ground, freeing myself from their weights. Then, i tangle my fingers into Jiyong's, finding and borrowing every strand of strength in him. Slowly, i reach out my other hand to press the bell, notifying the owner of the house of our arrival. There's no turning back now. Waiting nervously the gate to be opened, i draw myself closer to Jiyong, literally hiding myself behind him, holding him firmer than before. My heart races crazily and by seconds, i feel like dying.

The gate finally opens much to my surprised. Jiyong sends me his 'everything-would-be-okay' smiles and squeeze my fingers slowly between his, assuring me that everything will be just fine.

Noting his assurance, i free .myself from him, and lift back the plastics bag that I’ve put below before. With every strength in every fibre, i step into the house, just to find the faces of people that I’ve missed like crazy are smiling, welcoming me and Jiyong. ***** The rest of the family including Jiyong are chatting and resting leisurely at the living room where daddy, the maid and i are stucking ourselves in the kitchen. I don’t mind though. I like it here, with daddy. He is cooking my favourite Shrimp Scampi and this proud guy doesn’t even allow me to hold a knife here.

'Hyeri..go, sit with them outside. Let me do this with Gemma.' Daddy tries to get rid of me by shoving his bigger arm to my side which i easily avoid him.

'I dont want to daddy. Just let me help you. Nae?' I start launching my cuteness over my daddy and he could not help from laughing and smiling at my attitude.
