Chapter 3: The Urge To Stop Her
"Why are you acting like you're my boyfriend? Have you forgotten why we're together in the first place ?" She paused, " And don't comment on my friendship with shaysha . I repeat, dont ever make that mistake ." Lily warned sternly as she emerged from the cupboard .
Now fully dressed in a white sleeveless top and blue jeans, adorned with a waistband and a watch. Her curly and slightly wavy hair , her painted nose and slim orange - brown lips and a small mole beside her lower lip , her slender figure with a define collarbone and a slim waist , complemented by her fitted pants , highlighted her beauty ,enhancing her striking appearance.
Jeon, feeling a mix of sadness , abandonment and anger , is taken aback and blushed when Lily came out of cupboard.
His eyes widened as he took in her elegant and – something he had never seen before .
After three years of their relationship being solely physical, this is the first time , he saw lily fully dressed , neat and clean .
While he had always known She is very beautiful, but seeing her dressed up was truly mesmerizing, revealing a new depth to her allure that he had never fully appreciated.
Before Jeon could response her , He was shut by lily's harsh word . " I'm done with you since you're expressing your jealousy for shaysha ," Lily said with a stern , emotionless expression. " lock the door before you leave . If anything is misplaced or lost , I'll hold you responsible. "
She walked to the door and opened it , leaving Jeon behind in the bedroom .
The path from the bedroom to the house's main gate is neither too long nor too short .
As she stopped and turned her head to glance back at Jeon , who is watching her from the bedroom, she added ," Take everything of yours with you ; you no longer need to stay here ."
With a faint smile , she shut the door firmly and proceeded down the building.
Left alone in the room , Jeon stood in confusion, unable to grasp what had transpired in just few minutes.
He lay down on the bed , his mind replaying the events , his hands touched the clothes he had removed from lily during their intimate moments.
Bringing the cloth close , he inhaled their scent , which evoked memories of their closeness and passionate kisses they had shared .Now , the lingering smell and Lily's departing words only deepened his sadness.
Jeon , Lily and Saysha had been friends since high school. Unlike other students, Lily was homeschooled throughout her education. They had met Lily through a teacher and their friendship had grown close from there .
Over the time , Jeon realized He had feelings for Lily . Although, he was known for being a playboy , he had never taken things further with any of the girls he dated.
When Lily broke up with his previous boyfriend, Jeon saw an opportunity and approached her .
How seeing her emotional state and understanding that she no longer believed in love , he proposed a physical relationship , which lily accepted.
Lily had became more promiscuous after her break up . Jeon's proposal helped prevent her from further self–destruction.
Under the terms of their arrangement, Lily proposed to cover all of Jeon's financial needs , which he accepted simply to be with her .
Despite their arrangement, Jeon's feelings for lily grew stronger, and he acutely aware of them as he lay on the bed , realizing that he had fallen for her ven more deeply than he had anticipated.
As Jeon laying , his one hand resting on his forehead and the other was holding lily's removed clothes in his chest .
He softly murmured, " Just now I felt a strong urge to stop you even though I know you don't love me , I don't have the right to stop you , to say anything to you ." With sadness in his eyes and tears beginning to form , he continued,
" What do I mean to you , love ?"
