UNTOLD MARRIAGE ; sunghoon

CHAPTER 29

"Sunghoon, it's all over the media now. " Jay spoke as he sat down the bed, watching Sunghoon as the man removed his jacket. "I saw it. " He added.

Sunghoon stopped for a mere seconds before he sighed and completely took off his jacket and hanged it on the rack. "Good." He spoke in neutral voice.

"Good? " Jay's voice filled with confusion.

"Yeah, good. Good for everyone to know. " The ravenette answered, trying to sound casual which he succeeded.

Truth is, he didn't want everyone to know, let alone believe it. But guess life is just really like that, you have to do things for the one you love.

The older by months, scoffed. "Good for everyone to know? What about Rian? " Best believe that Jay wanted nothing but to smack some senses to the other right now. "Think what would she feel when she found out about this. Think what would she feel about you making a decision when you two should talk about it first. Think what would she feel, Sunghoon. "

It's not that Jay is fully against what their bandmate's decision is. Actually, he understands Sunghoon. But the thing is, the ravenette left Rian clueless about his decision.

Yes, it's for her sake. Yes, he did it for her management to bring and gave her back her solo activities. Yes, it will make everything okay, it will make the media to finally shut up. But... Was it worth it?

Well, for Sunghoon, it is. But what about to Rian? Does she even want this? Being avoided by your husband only to find out afterwards about the news of him dating someone else? Yes, they're married but... She wasn't the one who got introduced to the world. It is someone else.

"Jay, I feel shit already. Please don't make it worse. " Said the man, hand running through his locks as frustration is well evident on his face.

Jay sighed. "I'm not making it worse, Sunghoon. My point here is, you should've informed Rian. Besides, you two are one already, she is your wife and you are her husband. So at least you should've informed her first before making a decision that both of you are involved. "

Sunghoon bit his lips as he shifted his weight to his other foot. He remained silent.

"Now, imagine what will be her reaction once she finds out—"

"She probably found it out already. It was announced yesterday—"

Jay immediately interrupted the other before he could even finish his sentence whilst shaking his head. "She haven't. Eunjung is still clueless and so are they. "

That's true. Eunjung was still clueless when Jay asked her after lunch about Rian's reaction. When the girl said that her solo is finally back and even asking what happened to the issue, Jay knew they haven't found out. And he doesn't have the right to tell her girlfriend since it's not his place in the first place. They're out of it since it's Sunghoon's and Rian's business.

"So what now, Sunghoon? " Jay added when Sunghoon is still silent. His eyes following the other's frame who's walking towards the one seater couch and sat down.

Sunghoon sighed, heavy weight sitting on his chest and on his shoulders. "She... " He paused for a second, contemplating. "Rian will understand. " He looked at his member. "I know, she will. "

-

"Rian, you're home already! " Yena greeted the youngest who just arrived from the shoot of her solo activities. Yena even spread her arms and engulfed Rian into a tight hug. "I heard from Eunjung about your solo, congrats Rian! I'm so happy for you."

The said female idol forced a smiled. She even chuckled as she let herself be engulfed by the her bandmate's embrace.

This is what she needed, at the moment beside her bed because her body is exhausted and she felt drained for what she just found out earlier today. About an another life she's carrying. So being in someone important's arms is what she needed the most this time.

Honestly speaking, she was scolded for how many times for lacking of focus, for lacking of professionalism, especially that they have been trained for many years to put aside their problems when they're working which wasn't easy in her case.

If it's another problem, then she can act and put them aside and be professional. But this... She just can't.

And while on the shoot, she has been thinking about it. And she comes to the decision of keeping their unborn child. And before that, she should at least inform Sunghoon, her husband.

After interacting with her bandmates, Rian goes to her room and immediately lay down the soft mattress, her eyes making contact with the ceiling, her mind thinking of Sunghoon's possible reaction.

Will he be happy? Sad? Disappointed? Excited?

They rarely talk about having kids and if they do, it's always light and never be serious so she can't be certain in what could be Sunghoon's reaction.

Yes, they are married. Yes, they love each other so much. But are those enough for him, for them, to give up their dreams and be with each other? Are those enough for Sunghoon to leave everything he has now and take responsibility of it?

As soon as that thought crossed her mind, Rian's hand instinctively caress her still flat stomach as her heart clenched from the thought.

At this point, she didn't know what to do. Not really know what to do since she's certain on something, and that is to inform Sunghoon no matter what. Because clearly, he is involved with it. Or even so, she would still inform him because they are one and committed to one another.

So every heavy decision she would take, he must be at least aware of it. Because they're one.

"Rian? " Rian blinked, snapping from her train of thoughts as she looked at the door and adopted a sitting position on her bed.

It was Eunjung.

"Eunjung, you need something? " She asked lowly, though enough for the other to hear.

The latter gave her a faint smile and walked inside, a glass of milk in hand. Rian had to hold her laugh while looking at the other. "I brought you milk. I saw that this is good for pregnant woman. "

Upon hearing this, Rian smiled. A genuine one. "Thank you and you can put it there. I'll drink it later after I taking a quick bath. " The younger replied.

Eunjung smiled, eyes glancing to Rian's stomach then back to her eyes. "What's your plan now? Will you tell Sunghoon? "

Rian nodded. "Hmm. Besides, he has to know. "

Eunjung nodded, satisfied with the younger's answer. So after wishing her a good night and to take care of herself even on her sleep and in her dreams which Rian found funny, Eunjung finally left the room.

And just that, Rian took a quick shower before drinking the glass of milk her bandmate brought. She reached for her phone and began typing.

To: Sunghooned <3

Can we talk? Please? I have something to tell you

After sending the message to Sunghoon, she waited for a few minutes for his reply but then when she received nothing, she decided to sleep and call it a night.
