NEXT DAY

Noah went to a department store for doing grocery shopping. She was picking up random items she needed.
“Hi…” Kevin whispered.
“Oh My God! You startled me.”
“Watcha doing?” Kevin asked but got nothing in response. “I went to your apartment but you weren’t there. My instincts brought me here."
“Really?” She smiled and then frowned.
“I’ll keep on bothering you. Hey… leys take this one too.” He picked up an item.
“No thanks.” She moved forward.
A 4 yr old kid ran towards Noah and hugged her.
“Omo…” She looked down at the crying kid. She then looked worriedly at Kevin.
“Why are you looking at me? ask the kid his problem.” Kevin told her.
“Uh...”
“Umma….” The kid wiped his tears.
“Umma? I think he lost his umma in the crowd.” Noah predicted. “I think we should report this.”
Kevin nodded and grabbed the kids arm but he resisted and grabbed Noah’s skirt. Then he looked above at Noah. “Umma?”
Kevin glared. “Urgh… so irritating.”
The kid then spread his arms upwards cuz he wanted Noah to pick him up. Noah was a little disturbed cuz she wasn’t that close with kids.
“I’ll pick you up. We’ll then report to the guard.”
“Aniyo…” The kid glared at Kevin and then looked at Noah with bright eyes. Noah gave up and picked him up. The kid hugged her, surrounding her neck with his arms.
“Who does he think he is?” Kevin murmured and pouted. They then reported and sat on the bench waiting for his parents to come.
“Just put him down.” Kevin said angrily.
“I think he is sleeping.” Noah looked at the kid who was in her lap. “He’s so cute.”
“What the hell!!!” Kevin sighed.
“Do you hate kids?” Noah asked.
“Just this kid. Why the hell is he calling you umma??” Kevin folded his arms as he saw the boy tightly hugging Noah in his sleep.
“Aww…” She smiled.
“Wah…. Was that a smile?” Kevin got excited. “I never saw you smile. Now I am even more jealous.”
She laughed. “You’re behaving like nothing happened yesterday.”
“I hope you’ll forget that as well.” He said and Noah’s smile vanished.

15 minutes later, a girl arrived with a man.
“Dongwoon.” The girl called her child.
“Oh… Dongwoon, you’re umma is here.” Noah woke him up. The kid got off Noah’s lap and ran to his umma. She picked him up.
“We are really sorry. Our child caused you trouble.” The kid’s appa apologized.
Kevin fascinatingly looked at the child’s mother. “Noah, she really looks like you.” He said.
Noah glanced at the girl and she was already looking back at her while smiling. They both really looked alike.
“Annyahseyo…” She greeted Noah. “Mind telling me your name?” She asked.
“Um…. N-No--”
“Kwon Noah.” Kevin happily replied. “You both look so alike.”
“Ye I thought so too. Can we exchange numbers?” She asked.
“Ofcourse.” Kevin took Noah’s cell and exchanged number with her.
“I am Soo Yeon and this my husband.”
“Nice to meet you.” The husband replied happily.
Confused Noah just bowed in response.
“You both look good together.” Sooyeon complimented.
“I tell that to her everyday but she never believes.” Kevin complained.
“Hahah… that’s what all girls say.” She said.
“Ummaaa~ Lets go. I am hungry.” Dongwoon whined.
“Hahah…. Ok see you guys later.” She waved and they left.
“Did you lose a sister when young?” Kevin teased.
“He was so cute.” Noah pouted when the child left.
“ You love children? I didn’t know that. Well we can have ours later.” Kevin smiled.
She sighed. “NO… I won’t do this… I won’t make my child suffer like I did.”
“What if the child is immune like his father?”
She smiled and hit him lightly.
“OMO…” That shocked Kevin. “Did you smile because of me?” He asked.
She didn’t reply.


After the shopping, Noah started walking to home while drinking a can.
“W-wait. Are we gonna walk all the way to your apartment?” Kevin asked.
“Just me. I am used to walking long distance. You can go whenever you like.” Noah replied rudely.
“Whatever, I am gonna follow you to hell.” Kevin kicked a pebble.
“Hell?” She looked at him. “That’s not where I am going.” Noah said.
He looked back. “That was a joke, Bit**.” He tried not to laugh.
“Assh***” Noah murmured.
“OMO…. where did you learn that word?” Kevin asked. “Ah… that moved me. Will you say that word again?” Kevin asked excitedly.
“No…” She took a sip.
“Bit**.”
She glared back.
“Aww… comeon…. Say that again.”
“Why do you want me to call you that? You should hate it.” Noah rolled her eyeballs.
“Its so cute when you say it. Ahhhh….”
.
.
.
“Why do you always come back when I make up my heart to accept the way I am?” She asked.
“Hmmmmmmm……..The day I first met you in Sweden, since that day, you never left my mind. First it was due to curiosity, then fun, then the bet, then revenge, then hate, then due to Byunghun, but now I think it really is due to love that you never leave my mind. And… there isn’t a single lie in it, although I skipped one thing that I won’t tell you.” He continued. “I never did plan to love you, it just---it just happened.” He was walking behind her.
“It might not be love.” She commented and threw the can in the nearby bin.
“I thought so too at first, that’s why I left you and tried to go out with other girls but it didn’t work. Your face is stuck in my mind……... Now it does not matter, the times you slap or insult me or pour hot water on me. It just gives me pleasure when you do these things to me. I just….. just get excited?”
She just stared at him. “Guess, I wasn’t born lucky if you’re the one I have to end up with.”
“Haha really, I can say the same.” He teased.
“Ah, it’s useless to argue with you. I just have to patiently wait for the day you again leave, right?” She stopped walking and looked behind at him.
He looked back. “I’ll wait until you start believing me. I know it would take time but you should give me a chance. I am willing to give away everything in order to be with you, so please, tolerate this time…………… Bit**” He changed his serious mode into a funny one.
She hit her on his head and started walking ahead.
“I’ll keep on calling you Bit** unless you call me an Assh***”
“Urgh……!!!!”


“Noah… would you mind if I ask you, about your past?”
“Hmm…. I can.” Noah smiled back. “I know how it feels like to have a mentally ill mother.”
“M-mentally ill?” Kevin stuttered.
“Um. You lied to me that your umma is paralyzed but Byunghun told me the truth. She is mentally ill, like my umma was.”
