12: Regret

A week had passed by since Mr and Mrs Park announced the date of when will they meet Haemi's dad at court. Surprisingly, her dad just smiled and nodded his head when Mr Park said they want to settle this at the court. That made them more anxious

Jimin never let Haemi and Hyebin out of the house since then. Even though Hyebin needs to go to the kindergarten, Jimin will be the one that send her there. Haemi threw a tantrum of course. She doesn't want both of her and her sister be a burden to his family and even said that she could take care of herself but Jimin was stubborn. He doesn't want anyone to get hurt

Haemi was making tea at the kitchen. Knowing that her husband will be back soon and will annoy her while making his tea if she forgot to make it. The sound of a car parked outside of the house made her ran to the door to welcome him but froze when she saw what is happening

"You're ho..me" The girl surprised to see her husband crying

"Im going upstairs" He walked past her and went upstairs leaving the girl clueless

She sighed and put the tea on the coffee table. Thinking whether she should go after him and asked what happened or just stay downstairs until he's fine but the sound of a glass breaking upstairs made her do the first one

She ran upstairs and opened the door to his bedroom without knocking. She gasped when she saw the vase and the mirror broke and Jimin were hugging his knees on the floor. He was leaning on the side of the bed. Haemi squinted her eyes and ran to his when she saw his hand bleeding

"Jimin what happened?" She took his injured hand and he yanks it away harshly

"Get lost" He muttered coldly and puts his head back on his knees

"Jim-"

"I SAID GET LOST!" He shouted. The girl flinched and scowled. She was not afraid at all. She was just worried. Worried that something bad might happen if she leave him alone here

"Listen.. I dont know what happened but I am here for you. To hear what happened. Maybe I could help?" She said and heard Jimin huffed

"Please Haemi I need my time alone.. please.. leave" He begged and looks at her with his eyes wet

"Come here" Haemi bring him to a hug and rubbed circles on his back when she felt him crying on her shoulder

"There.. there.." She pats on his hair and Jimin continued crying for a while. After a couple minutes, only his sniffing were heard and he looks at her with his red eyes

She cupped his soft cheeks and smiled warmly "You want to tell what happened now?" She asked and he shook his head cutely

"Are you sure you dont want to tell me what happened?" He shook his head again

"Okay then" The girl stood up and he immediately tugged on her arm. Preventing her to go.

"I take it back.. I want to tell you what happened" He said with his voice cracked a bit and the girl sat down beside him. She took his injured hand and scanned it

"So what happened?" She asked. Her fingers silently pressing on the injured spot with a handkerchief that she found on the bed behind them

"Miyoung.." He started off and Haemi just nodded

"She used me again. She easily break up with me after I bought her those branded things" He flinched when Haemi accidentally pressed his knuckle hard

Both of them were silent. Only the sound of Jimin's sniff were heard. Haemi didn't know what to say. No. She doesn't want to say anything. For the time being, she just wanted to hear what happened and clean her husband's hand

"Why? Why did all of my girlfriends did that to me? Am I that easy? Stop making me feel confused! What do they think of me? A doll? And who do they think they are?! Using me just like I'm a tissue" He huffed

"Stop playing with my feelings it is not a toy!"

He shouted in anger. Haemi frowned when she saw the blood did not stop flowing

"Lets go downstairs. The first aid box is at the kitchen" She stood up but Jimin just sat there quietly

"Lets go.. Lets talk about this downstairs at the kitchen" She said again and the boy stood up silently. Limping his way downstairs and sat down on the dining table when he saw his wife running to the shelf and took the first aid box

She came with the box in the hand and sat across the boy. "Let me see that"

She took his hand and start applying those weird creams and whatever thing that she usually see people use whenever someone is injured

"Im afraid I will not fall in love again if I kept on being played like this" He sighed and look at his hand being treated

"Hear this. You just fell in love with the wrong person. You never listen to anyone's advices and just do whatever you want. They see what is wrong with your girl but you dont. Why? Like I said before. Because you are so blinded with love" She finished wrapping his hand with bandages and the boy went quiet from how true Haemi's word were

"Haemi.. I cheated on you, I never hear what you say, I always annoy you, I always tease you and I always ignored you. But.. Why are you still kind to me?" He asked. The girl pressed her lips and looks at the boy

"Jimin, whatever you do.. I am still your wife. I need to do my job as a wife.. until we get divorced" She said and Jimin looks down at the word 'divorce' "We may argue all the time but I want to end things well with you. And fighting back and stop you from doing what you want to do will make this relationship more.. worse"

"I want to make my first marriage an awesome memory to cherish" She sighed and the boy bit his lips

"Sorry" He muttered

"Huh?"

"Sorry.."

"For what?"

"For making your life harder" He said and the girl went quiet for a moment "I will try to be a better husband from now on. I prom-"

"Actually Jimin.. Im having fun now.. You dont have to make those promises"

Please dont make those promises.. Cause I already regretted the moment I promised that I will divorce you no matter what happened
