Lethal Objections (1/1)

Tiffany followed the car by sight as it drove away into the streets. The figure looked so familiar. She had a clue on who it was but she didn’t want to think that it was him. There was no truth on the message she received as she noticed the man earlier. Everything was the complete opposite. Tiffany is happy with Siwon, he changed her life. He brought contentment and security to her. She found her home in his arms, and nothing can change that. Not even an insecure, desperate ex-lover.“Is an Amarone okay?” suddenly the guy she had her thoughts about darted from where she was left, holding two glasses of red wine.“You are such a geek. You know I don’t fiddle too much about alcohol.” she stumps, trying to mock his classy expression. Siwon chuckled looking how cute and silly his girlfriend looked.“Oh, I see. Which explains your drunken Katy Perry singing video.” he snaps back remembering that fateful incident when Tiffany got too drunk at the girls’ little party after promotions. A member called him up asking if he could pick up the smashed and hyper activated Tiffany. He got so mad and frustrated the next day, spending the whole of telling on Tiffany. On the other hand, it was her first time seeing a disappointed Siwon and she had nothing in mind but cry knowing that she pissed off her own boyfriend.“I’m sorry okay? I’m watching it. And I just want you to watch over me.”  She pulled him closer and placed a short kiss on his cheeks.“Tiff?” he fixes his eyes on her.“Hmyeah?”“Are you happy with me?” Siwon asks in a light manner, but somehow it caught Tiffany’s attention and she got the wrong side of his sudden question.“Siwon? What’s with the sudden question honey?”  Tiffany set aside her glass of wine and intertwined her hands with his. Thinking that he’s losing faith of something that Tiffany doesn’t know.“Nothing, it’s just, sometimes I don’t feel I deserve you.” He smiles while taking a sip of the sweet alcohol.“Why? Don’t you like me anymore?” she made a cute, aegyo-ish face in front of him that never failed to make him chuckle.“No, I mean, you’re so perfect. Sometimes I don’t feel I’m being a good partner to you, or if I’m doing the right thing, or if I’m really worthy of you. But just so you know Tiff, I want to make you happy in any way that I could.”  His head hung low, gazing at their intertwined fingers. Siwon didn’t know what was with him that night, but as the day of their wedding came nearer and nearer, suddenly these things come sinking in his thought.“You’re ruining my make-up!” she chuckles, her eyes water from what Siwon just said. She knew him for so long and it was not new that the guy had knack for sugarcoated words and everything else, but at that certain point she felt not only the love but the devotion that Siwon had promised her.His deep set eyes were focused on Tiffany, he moved closer and brought her body across his. The idea of marrying the woman in his arms right now was heaven on Earth for Siwon. His lips lay on her forehead, and wiped her small tears with his thumb. Their eyes met and somehow sparked a hearty laughter from each other.“Let’s go back inside, mom’s waiting for her favorite daughter-in-law.” Siwon caught her by the hand and walked his princess back in. That night, he could never ask for more.***“Why can’t you just stay with me? I’ll bring you back tomorrow morning.” The black sports car was parked inside SNSD’s apartment complex. It was against his will that his fiancée was not spending the night with him on his own flat. Siwon admitted to the fact that he wanted to cuddle his little miss sunshine to bed but the latter insisted to go home to their dorms.“Babe I have a schedule tomorrow morning, and you have to catch up on sleep. Waking up early tomorrow won’t be convenient for you. You’ve been so busy these days and you need rest honey.” She explains while cupping his face in between her small hands.“But I miss you.” He acts like a five-year old, showing his cutie pout and reddening cheeks.“Siwon…”“Alright, alright. I get it. But can you stay over soon? You know I really don’t like sleeping alone.” He chides as if he was a kid afraid of bed monsters or the boogeyman.“You’re already 28! You should be learning by now!” she mocks him.“I’m starting to unlearn it, because I have you.” he sniggers. Tiffany almost curled her fingers hearing yet another cheesy remark from him. ‘When will he stop?’ she asks in thought, but of course these little things add up to what makes Siwon adorable.“Siwon… Okay. Let’s do it this way, you can pick me up tomorrow after the performance, and I will stay for the weekend. Would that do?” Tiffany tried to come up with an agreement, she knows Siwon would always blubber about how he misses her. “Okay! Promise me you’ll stay okay?” his dimpled smile shows hearing it straight from his girl.“I promise, Mr. Choi.”  She beams.“I’ll see tomorrow. Goodnight baby.”  Siwon places a kiss on her hand before they part.“Goodnight. Call me when you get home okay hon?”Siwon nods. Before she opened the door, Tiffany pulled Siwon close and initiated a passionate kiss between them. It was a long, sweet one. Probably the kiss she would give on the day of their wedding. The element of surprise took Siwon but his endorphins were much quicker to respond.They parted and each raced for breaths.“I love you babe.” she kissed his cheeks and walked out of the car. Siwon just sat there thinking what the hell happened when Tiffany initiated the sudden kiss. His heart was racing like it was the first time.Tiffany jumped into her bed, all wanting her precious sleep. All waddled in her pink, fluffy nest her eyes slowly closed and her body slowly relaxed itself. Before she got fully knocked out her phone lit a few times indicating that it received a message. She grunts, her idea of falling asleep by a stubborn SMS, but she came to thought that it might be Siwon who’s telling her that he’s home.Much to her expectation, an unregistered number sent her a dispatch. She pressed on her phone and the message read across:“Let’s talk this out tomorrow.”Her mind went from the state of rest to the state of curiosity. It was the same number who sent her a message earlier at the party, and more likely than not, connected with the man she saw on the other side of the garden.Tiffany didn’t want to think of it that way, but her mind registers one name.***“Choi Siwon?” he was walking to Tiffany’s dressing room when someone of a familiar voice halted him. His attention is caught and turns around to see that person.“Siwon! Goodness man! You’re so busy being engaged, it’s my first time seeing you again after months!” Taecyeon ran across the hall and gave his good friend a brotherly hug.“Taec! What’s up man!” he was delighted seeing this good friend of his, it’s only once and a while that they meet due to the recent engagement as Taecyeon mentioned.“You! What’s up! Damn bro, you seem so busy these days I hardly see you around, yet you’re just engaged! How much more man when you’re married!” Taecyeon jokes around. Their spontaneous meeting was a good time to catch up.“Yeah. I think so. Hey, I’m sending invitations next week. Better be present at my wedding bro!” Siwon playfully smacks Taecyeon’s head.“Of course! Can’t wait to see Seoul’s most eligible bachelor to tie the knot!” Taecyeon teases earning Siwon’s impish punch on his sides.“If I know you’re next Taec.” he sniggers for a good rebuttal.***“Gosh, I’m so exhausted, I want to eat a whole chicken.” Sooyoung threw herself on the dressing room’s couch. They were filming for a show and their group had to perform. The rest of the group were beat, lying on the seats and half closing their eyes as they waited for their coordis to pack up. Tiffany sat on one corner of the room, clutching her phone and head back on the wall. Siwon told her he was on his way, few minutes from now he would be picking her stuff up and Tiffany could sleep in on the way home.The room was filled with small chatter from the girls, mostly about how tired they were and what they wanted for the whole day was sleep. A knock on the door gained everyone’s attention and one of their managers had to come and get it for them.“Tiffany it’s for you.” The manager said. That being heard, she shot straight up, thinking it was his lovey who arrived. “How the heck did you get here so fas—“ her jolly sentence was replaced with and anxious undertone. It was not Siwon who was waiting for her outside the dressing room, it was someone else.And she was right about the sender of the anonymous messages were. The evidence is right there standing at her.Nichkhun.“Nick? What are you doing here?” she tried to hide the anxiousness she felt because of his presence. “Tiffany, we need to clear things out.” Nichkhun said in his stern voice as she held Tiffany by her arms.“Clear things? What is this? What are you talking about?” she was lost at his intentions.“Tiffany I know you still love me! Don’t fool yourself by being with Siwon! You’re lying to yourself! To me! To us!” his grip tightened on her arms as he released his words with the utmost conviction.“What?! Nichkhun, we’re long over. I have Siwon now, I’m happy with him! I-I don’t have anything for you anymore.” she reasons, Tiffany wanted to sound intimidating wishing it would stop her stupid ex from making accusations.“That’s not true! I see it in your eyes Tiffany! You still want me!” his voice raised.***“I’m here to pick up Tiffany.” They chatted as the both of them walked to SNSD’s dressing room.“I see. We also had to film a show, so the whole gang is here.” Taecyeon said.“You guys are getting pretty lethal, turning busier by the moment.” Siwon commented hearing Taecyeon’s endless rant about overlapping schedules. Their duo walked briskly along the hallway when Siwon heard a familiar voice resounding at the near end of the hall.“Nichkhun, no! I can’t! I can’t do this to Siwon!” the voice harshly shouted.“Don’t make things complicated as they already are Tiffany! Break up with him! Stop pretending!” the male voice replied.Taecyeon turned his head to Siwon who might have thought of the same thing. They both ran to where they heard the voices. It was clear that Tiffany is having an argument with somebody that to  Taecyeon’s fear, is Nichkhun.Siwon scurried, worried to know what the commotion was about, he was not sure if he heard it right but his mind was playing tricks on him now by making hasty conclusions. His heart pounded and started to sweat, but when he turned to where the voices came to set the records straight…He saw Nichkhun grab Tiffany by her face.And kissed her with all his might. -------------------------------------A/N: Next time.
