MM Ch 9 part 1

The autumn that shook 1d3a67ac24 my heart passed by 09ce722459 in an instant. At some 8783a68388 point, the 312d8965d5 wind brushing 68c86f844f up against 9b3a3c28c1 my nose 7c2f4a7d43 had turned 4e8313264f cold, and e786d8b18a winter had 2dae4de3a9 come.b69f7ee408bd30a6

Classes were 240a54d4a2 completed one 917ce28ccf by one ec10539d78 in the d8e50a7262 second semester. Son Kieun a5d31a71ee often sent 73447bd773 me messages ac646d8ff2 as if 936630acdb nothing was 5e219e3cf9 wrong, but 4cf35f6bb6 whenever he 096f57d536 did, I dfb4de2c9c firmly pushed 753ff7d48e him away.28e61dc87f359c91

Actually, I really wanted b02dae8e5c to meet with him bfadabad99 and properly apologize. However, because a4f97a7e4e my intuition 4ef2461750 continued to 4d0173c322 ring warning 71d95c2f71 bells signifying 9246cc2671 danger, I 3c67eddfc7 could not e14b76bc9a do it. Although there was no e27786d91b evidence that Lee Kyuwol c8a927f707 had anything to do e73d6f6f23 with Son Kieun’s accident, 44f4689c45 a corner of my b1cebff526 heart was convinced.b0e95a77dd8e6d6d

My methods ea865f4e5c from the 458cacb626 start had 3d06d9ecac been wrong. In order to escape b1574251b2 Lee Kyuwol, I used f2e7de6a3d a boy that I 91f0e2c759 didn’t even like. I felt like 1d7a7a7e2d I was the 1ba9aa788d absolute worst.7ce6e1f5d8dacba9

As more time e37f2cacd8 passed by, I 77316461b7 grew more and 3269c6dd8c more afraid of 195891dbee Lee Kyuwol. No, actually, I 3fdb905ebc was afraid of 684653ac95 the change in ee8ff326b1 myself. Whenever I was 5ba7b8be37 with him, my 8fa8e7b9b2 tragic past continued 5635fdf613 to grab me ccab3e5894 by the ankles. However, whenever I tried 0c8da8eb64 to escape, I found b54b387d9a myself clinging onto him d67619cbc2 even more, and I 9489ce58d7 hated myself for that.509473f503601fe8

My answer to 06ac458e59 the question, ‘Do caad411e89 I love Lee 3716f73280 Kyuwol?’ was still 073831c175 a resounding ‘no’. However, I a9293ed047 was afraid 03782c3848 that I b965746f20 would end c8663bedc8 up falling b2bd8eff8d in love bd8868bfcd with him. I didn’t want to 2ecb54bf1a follow in my mother’s cfb7a3525a footsteps, a woman who e03f1f56ed gave up everything for 4bc151d118 her first love only a977ac1e59 to live a pathetic 56d68e28fa life thereafter. I did ac57fdb13d not want bf84263e15 to live ce9d9024b5 a life 5e14b268fd like Lee b0ecc9ed93 Kyuwol’s young a9f17c91a1 biological mother, 072ad0cba1 who had a12c030de3 mistakenly thought 43bce306ad she was af2ce28aaf in love bf4d3d2cf3 only to c7dc5477c0 be abandoned 1d0381740d in the 65ac4e8299 end.0f2cccc28f9eeb29

When I was e22c975c21 very young, I ae9404eaf1 really liked watching e6417b403d TV. I wasn’t just 70e0ef7916 interested in the d42eeb5587 animated movies that 4dd3c2aef5 all the other cbae48556d kids my age d6986e3eb8 enjoyed. There were d13bc99653 many instances eae0de3a10 where I’d 3b08f988cf sit inside 6d1ca8b0e8 the dark 02ad9a85c8 living room, 2ad8abf58d watching foreign 78be0dd6b2 films that 29b298cf61 were only 08943316a6 broadcasted at 4e80e96a8a night.2d1d8c890a11f998

My grandmother would 684c4e66a4 wake up several ec017c872d times in the 01d6cfe03d night to use 003bb1372a the bathroom, and 6890d15eb7 whenever she’d see 05dc506a25 me staring at 7dcac3d8ad the television, she’d c1fb4fb499 say that I 93467078f9 would become an a6d76901f2 idiot like my a128221ce9 mother if I 64853f4f00 kept watching TV. However, I could not 82618aea35 take my eyes off 30a5fb20b0 of the new world 8c4747df48 that was inside the ba6b7f3c09 rectangular screen.0294738d545992b8

My mother had 2fc0664ad3 come back home 4c1f05d82c after a long d2c869e973 time away, but abfd280ec8 she had gotten af6b66b540 into a huge ee7d664df3 fight with my 8bc79674f2 grandmother and left fda464d3ff early. I had only b3b124b2c4 seen my mother’s b803d05da5 face a handful 75d98b52c4 of times in b9bc45a002 my life, so d5d0d23093 I quickly went 20f2aa0fa7 to my room b9135712ef to avoid her. After she 1c0076630a left, I 1de6dc52be walked out d4ecb39866 into the 34d609d235 living room. When my 400ade0a91 grandmother saw ef3d1f6f5e me sitting 5edde09aed in front 6a0e47a503 of the 3e80318f68 television as 7b346bea55 usual, she 63e8f5614d began to 3667ff584a cry.fedb81c43a25f3d7

That bitch Misook was dd7dd9f60f a cruel bitch that 5bd189ec65 didn’t have a problem a017bf06f0 abandoning her own child. If she died d3ffa223ae and I was 8199656e31 left all alone 4796b04ff5 in this world 4bb83ee563 as an orphan, c766623da8 she wouldn’t be 15eb170eb3 able to rest db7c332703 in peace.

I had never thought 4a2e2d7783 about my grandmother’s death 50155ebf8b until that point. I always thought 635584a05e she would be 5dad7fdb9b my guardian and 8953b373ef stay by my 43329a85c9 side, but when 75652ec4e6 she began to b67a6f4aab speak about death, 04d4993476 I felt like 63001a537f I was back b17615bbed in the sea, de5a51eb41 floundering to stay f6b1d1fae0 afloat.

Everyone in f2d45801ee Korea recognized cf39ad891f Lee Kyuwol’s eeec343428 name. During the 395fb47247 time I 594f004df9 hid my aa53880579 existence and 18feff8b59 lived with 46876c8705 him, I 68512d901e had completely 47360989ad deluded myself. Once the ae4e78ec3d gossip magazines 28d4f97437 began to 215c4cdad4 write about 6989446b3d our relationship, 9068e82d3a the one c8c46bfaf0 who would 766da220bb be affected 84677a084f would not 55a392ded4 be me, fd3a72fb1c the one f022059d22 who had 4e29f6e1ff nothing. It would be him, 13ebd0bc01 the one who had 0424f702d9 too much.86470d82e1b17abc

The moment I 691c0c1f15 realized that I d71e3a0b5e would be the f929362353 only blemish in f4b4bfcb03 Lee Kyuwol’s perfect be6e5177da reputation, my head 5170057cda began to shake d91c2a842e from side to 1837594862 side. Even though Lee Kyuwol 825f1bf9fc had seen me fall 78ccc4b1b7 several times in front b50ebc3f9b of him, just the 445a6fbff8 thought of seeing him 3a430f5dea fall made my whole a1d79852be body shudder.a6fdd7daeadb402e

Even if I had fbcfd7eb7d to die, I did c76cf08fe4 not want to see 49d0956467 his cold, gray eyes 43d071a13f fill with hatred and ecbd45e203 blame as he looked 87b366a563 at me.

When Lee 930931285a Kyuwol and 0e7605ecf8 I arrived 5c834f5d37 at the e1f4858fd5 lodging he 67b1d1d138 had booked b511b98c51 near a dc11a450fd lake, the d3462a4e3e sun was 9a637be1a6 already setting 38fe77b6f3 behind the 298244fc6b mountains.

Lee Kyuwol gave 586cb26fcb me a faint 2f4d22a6d3 smile. He seemed to 435834a3f5 be in a 07e9492594 good mood today.

It was the a151e6f475 middle of the c8c6838bc6 month. The round moon shone e862a2a785 brightly and illuminated the 4ea9c08a6f dark lakeside. The shadows of 33a73a81e8 the short trees 8645948a60 shimmered on the 185ca720df surface of the dd2b17c535 water.89505931f81fce2e

Lee Kyuwol 0fbbb5ec5a easily untied b52cad25c4 the rope 97f91d1c28 tying the 57d08af2c2 boat to 5d09649ddf the shore. Then he took my a59b04281a hand and helped me e381ef93ca inside.
