Chapter 74 – Personal Therapist
Yuta informed her that the pilot will drop her off in Tokyo and from there on, she would take a flight to wherever she wanted, the world was at her feet and she could choose where to go.
‘Jusy go somewhere safe.’ was his exact words if online he realizes that there was truly no safe place for her.
She made halfway to the plane before a pair of arms reached and grabbed her shoulder, forcing her to the around.
“What?!” She asked defectively to Johnny who had a cold look casted in his eyes. He released his grip from her and took a step back.
Why the hell was he here? Couldn’t he just stay in the car and watch her go? Wasn’t that what he wanted?
“What do you want?” She asked again as she watch him intently.
He opened his mouth to speak but nothing came out first. He had to muster up the strength to speak.
“Do you have to go?” He asked softly.
She narrowed her eyes at him. “What?” She asked, completely caught off guard by the question out if everything, she wasn’t expecting him to ask that. “Isn’t this what you want? To get freed from me? For me to get away from grandfather? Isn’t that what you asked for?” She brought up.
His head dropped and she just stared at him with bewildered eyes. Why was he acting like this? Why, of all times, why now?
“Look, I have a plane to catch, so if you’re not going to say anything, I’m going.” She stated firmly as she began to walk away. But he won’t let her.
“Do you want to go?” He repeated.
“What did I tell you before?” She brought up, remembering when he visits her at the hospital a few days ago. She told him she was tired, and she told him that she said want to do this anymore.
“Then let me rephrase my question, do you want to leave me? Do you want to be rid of me?” He asked gently and she felt her heart flutter.
“It doesn’t matter what I want.” She answered and knew it wasn’t the answer he was expecting.
“What if I can’t let you go?” He brought up and she was amused at how ironic this situation was.
“You will.” She replied flatly taking a few steps away. He only continued to close the gap by stepping closer to her.
“What made you sat that?”
She laughed at his sentence, “You left me on our wedding day, kicked me our the Dec I mentioned my parents. You didn’t rescue me when my grandfather kidnapped me, instead you let someone else do it.”
“I know all of this but….”
“Face it Dragon….You always let me go.”
He h@tëd how bitter she made it sound, but he knew it was bitter and cold because it was the truth. He never fought for her, even if he knew she would fight for him. He was the one letting her go, and in the end, she got hurt and he walked away.
“Taeyong told me something earlier.” He revealed and SoMi instantly knew that Johnny was deeply impacted by what the doe-eyed man told him. “After all this….I don’t know I can do this, I know I’m only going to hurt you but I can’t do it.”
“Do what’s?” She mumbled delicately, she wasn’t even sure if he heard.
“Let you get on that plane.” He answered and her heart stopped when he said that.
“….So what do you want to do?”
His eye clouded with fear and confusion before he finally stepped forward. She was taken aback by his out of character actions but her box reacted the second he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into a tight hug. She felt warmth engulf every inch of her.
His arms fell secured and sat as he pulled her closer. She fell her face burn crimson and she hid her face in his shoulder. She closed her eyes tightly and took in his addicting scent.
“Do like want you leave?” He whispered into her ear, and she shivered as how deep and gently he sounded at this moment.
“Yes.” She answered and she felt his arms tightened around her small flame.
“Do you want to leave me?” Johnny asked carefully this time.
“….No….”
……
“What is the?” Johnny’s asked impatiently.
Taeyong hushed him before speaking. “Not long after her parents died, there was something I asked you. “Do you remember?” Taeyong brought up.
Johnny groaned. “Ten years Taeyong, it’s been ten years. Do expect me to remember a conversation we had ten years ago?”
“This conversation, yes. It was the first time and only time I even saw you cry.” They clarified and the way Johnny’s gaze flickered forward was validation that he remembered.
“What about it?” He asked timidly as if remembering the past scared him. Maybe it did, maybe Johnny ran from the past because it was too painful.
“It was the one and only time, I could ever get you to reveal what you really wanted. Behind all the bully, killing, chasing and denial, you told me what you wanted. Do you remember what you told her?” Taeyong mused and it was so interesting seeing Johnny squirm like the teenager they once one. How time can chat someone.
“You know that I was pissed off, a lonely kid who lost two important people in my living. I wasn’t thinking straight.”
