Chap 38 (1/1)
JESSICA’S POV I decided to come to our apartment because I know Tiffany would be there. I need to check up on her even though she told me two days ago that she doesn’t want to see me. I stood in front of my apartment, took a deep breath, pressed the passcode then opened the door. I saw Yuri cleaning the house. “Hey.” She greeted me once she saw me. I nodded my head while walking closer to her, “Hey. Is my wife home? Where is my wife? How is she?” I asked her while putting the take away on the dining table. “She didn’t eat much. She is in her room.. I think she is sleeping or even if she is awake, I don’t think she wants to talk to you yet. Sorry.” Yuri smiled faintly at me. I nodded my head before talking, “Can you check up on her? If she is really sleeping or not? I just want to see her if she is sleeping. I wont wake her up.” I told Yuri and she started walking to Tiffany’s room. She opened the door slowly and peeked her head inside the room. She turned her head to me and waved her hand for me to come closer. I followed her and stood beside her. “She is sleeping now. Go ahead just don’t wake her up. She was wide awake for the last two days.” Whispered Yuri. I tapped her shoulder and mouthing thank you to her then I got inside the room. I walked slowly towards Tiffany and kneeled down in front of her. She has a round dark circle under her eyes because lack of sleep. I stared at her face and smiled faintly. I leaned closer then kissed her cheek and lips slowly. “I miss you. I can’t bear not to see your face even just a day.” I mumbled slowly, afraid to wake her up. I caressed her face slowly with the back of my hand, suddenly I felt like tears starting to form around my eyes. It’s all because of me. I kept caressing her cheek while holding back my tears but suddenly she stirred in her sleep and I got panicked. I walked to the door as fast as I can and left the room. “Done? So fast?” asked Yuri while putting the plates on the table. I nodded my head and smiled, “She stirred in her sleep so I had to get out of there hurriedly.” “I cooked quite a lot today. Do you want to eat here first? I bet she won’t be awake until later at night.” Asked Yuri while holding the chair backrest. I shook my head and smiled while walking toward the front door, “Thank you. But I don’t want to risk it. She might be awake soon. Nobody knows.” “Yeah true. She has trouble sleeping.” Yuri bit her lower lips and she looked worried. “Oh Yuri. That’s for you and Tiffany. Thank you for staying with her and taking care of her. But don’t tell her it was from me otherwise she wouldn’t eat it.” I smiled faintly and bit my lower lips. She nodded her head while staring at the plastic bag, “I guess I will see you again later?” I nodded my head and turned the doorknob but I paused before opening it and turned around to look at Yuri, “Don’t tell her that I was here.” Yuri nodded her head and I left the apartment. ~~0~~ I got back to my dad’s house and he greeted me with a hug, I slept at Taeyeon’s house last night so my dad didn’t know about me and Tiffany’s problem. “Where is my daughter in law?” he asked me and smiled, he looks happy. “Tiffany is not in Korea. She has something to do.” I lied to him. “You didn’t come with her???? You have to come to everywhere she goes.” He said and sat down. “Yeah I can’t leave the work here dad. If I go with her how about the work in here? You will scold me again since you like to do it so much.” “Oh yes right.” He nodded, “Well, it’s late already. Go wash yourself and sleep.” “Night dad.” “Good night sweetie.” ~~0~~ I couldn’t sleep because I kept thinking about Tiffany. I just afraid that she will leave me or worst asking for a divorce. I couldn’t stop myself from thinking. I tried to take the sleeping pills but here I am again wide-awake and couldn’t sleep. My eyes can’t open anymore, my head hurts but my brain kept working, I felt so tired and my body really needs to sleep. I grabbed a book from my bookcase and read it, luckily less than two hours I fell asleep. But not even two hours, I’m already fully awake again. I took a deep breath and got ready for work. I texted Tiffany and tried to call her but she didn’t pick up nor reply to my text. I didn’t get mad at her because I know she still needs time. I drove my car to the office and parked it outside the building like I used to. “Good morning Mrs. Jung.” Greeted all of the workers that passed by. I just nodded my head because I was still sleepy and my head hurts like so much and I feel weak, no energy. “Did Tiffany come to the office?” I asked my secretary. “No Mrs. Jung.” She said while bringing coffee for me. I nodded my head and walked to my office room. I started reading all the papers, reviewing, and signing it. I didn’t realize that five hours had passed by and I haven’t eaten any single thing from early morning or even yesterday because I don’t feel any appetite at all. I called and told my secretary to order some food for me. She came back with the food that I ordered but once I opened the box, I lost my appetite so I just ate some of it just to fill my stomach. I finished all the work at the office and I headed to the gym after that. I worked my muscle and my body a little bit too hard so my body would feel tired then hoping I could get my proper sleep. I washed myself after the heavy worked out and came out of the shower but my head started turning around and I felt so weak, felt like I could faint any moment. I dried my hair as fast as I could and headed back to my car. I had to stop once in a while because of how hurt my head and every time I forced myself to keep walking, I ended up falling to the ground. I sat down inside my car and leaned my head back to the backrest. I called Mr. Kwon and told him to pick me up at the gym and I also told him that I would be waiting inside my car. I couldn’t bear it anymore so I closed my eyes and let the darkness consume me. ~~0~~ I opened my eyes and it was so bright, too bright for my eyes so I had to cover my eyes with my hand. I looked at the ceiling and I don’t feel like I’ve been in this room. I looked around the room and I saw Mr. Kwon sleeping on the chair in front of me. “Mr. Kwon.” I called him, my voice seems hoarse and my throat felt dry. He opened his eyes slowly and he sat straight with his eyes widen once he saw me. “Are you okay Jessica?!” he asked me, he looked like he was about to cry. I nodded slowly, “Where am I?” “You are at the hospital. You fainted and you had a very bad fever when I found you inside the car.” he explained while stroking my hair, “Doctor said you were tired and lack of food plus your low blood pres
