Chapter 17 - Chapter 17

Jinah was still in shock as her lips were still on Liam's lips, Liam blinked his eyes twice, and pushed Jinah off from him ,and it was then that Jinah came back to her senses.

"Hey!!!!!, "Are you nuts, why did you kiss me?". Liam yells, cleaning his mouth with his hand.

"What!!!!!!!, I kiss you, I didn't, you did". Jinah yells.

"You fell on top of me on purpose right, so you can kiss me, you act as if you hate me but the real truth is that you have a crush on me".

"What crush, who is having a crush on who, do you think I like you, guys like you are the ones I hate most in this world". Jinah yells.

"Oh really,,,or maybe you are just saying the opposite of what you mean".

Jinah scoffs and says. "And why will you even think that, girls in your class may go crazy over you, but I don't, when I say I hate you, I mean it, you are so annoying, don't you ever show that small face of yours to me ever again, you want the book so badly here you go". Jinah said and threw the book at his face and storm out of the library, and Liam remain quiet touching his lips

Jinah stops halfway while walking, and when she remembers how her lips came in contact with Liam's lips, she scatters her hair.

"Eish,,,, Jinah why did your lip have to touch that boy's lips, I should have just given him the book, if I have, I won't have my first kiss with that arrogant boy". Jinah said, still scattering her hair.

"Are you going mad, why do you keep scattering your hair". Anna asked, looking at her.

"I think I am, thanks to your cousin".

"Come-on Jinah, don't tell me you both argued again, why are you both always behaving like cat and rat".

"Can you blame, your cousin is so annoying".

"Jinah just tries to get to know Liam, he is not as arrogant as he looks, he is soft hearted".

"Huh,,,,,you called that cousin of yours soft hearted, I wish I could just kill him Anna". Jinah said in anger.

"Jinah, Liam is not what you think he is, he has gone through a lot, do you know he was only 3 years old when his dad and mom got divorce, and his mom forcefully took him, she later got remarried, but her new husband didn't want Liam around, so his mom kicked him out of the house herself, and Liam started living on his own when he was only 7 years old, and my mom couldn't take him in because he was staying in France, since his mom got married to a freshman, his mom only sees him during the weekend, or sometimes she doesn't visit at all, so Liam grew up alone learning to be independent, and not caring about others, he acts so strong but deep down him he is hurting so badly, because both his parents never wanted him around, all they do is send him lots of money, but they were never be there for him, I couldn't bare to see him always being alone, that's why I suggested he comes back home to Korea, at least I always get to keep him company, now Jinah, do you now understand why Liam is like that". Anna asked.

Jinah looks at her and nods.

"Do you want to know the reason why I wanted you both to become friends, is for you to pull him out of his sad shell".

"What makes you think I can be able to help him". Jinah asked in a low tone.

"Because you are way more jovial than Liam, and someone like you is who Liam needs, will you be able to help him, let go of the hatred for him, and be friends with him Jinah, please". Anna said with a pleading eyes, and Jinah looks at Anna as she gulps down nothing.

Jinwoo enters their little sitting room and sees his mom jointing down something.

"Mom". He calls and Sung Mi Na looks at him.

"Jinwoo, you are still at home. I thought you were already in Jisoo's mansion".

"It's still morning Mom, so I still have time, I have something to ask you mom".

"What could that be, son". Sung Mi Na asked, looking at him.

Jinwoo sighs and sits on one of the sofas close to his mom.

"Mom, when did you discover you love my dad". Jinwoo asked, and Sung hye who was about to enter the house stopped on her track immediately. She heard what Jinwoo asked his mom.

"Why do you ask my son?".

"I just want to know mom, but it is okay if you don't want to talk about him since that jerk hurt you before".

"Is okay son, is already in the past anyway, well the feeling came to me at once Jinwoo, I find myself always thinking about him, I always want to be with him, and I always feel safe anytime he is with me, I feel happy when he is happy and I feel sad when he is sad, and I always want to make him smile". Sung Mi Na said and Jinwoo smiled.

"You must have loved him back then right".

"Yes I did, he was my first love back then in high school, he was the heartthrob of the school, he was so very handsome Jinwoo, I guess that was where you got your looks from."

Jinwoo smiles and says. "But he was a jerk for hurting you mom".

"Yes he is, but it is a good thing he is not part of our lives now who knows you might have turned out to be a Casanova like him".

"He was a Casanova??"

"Yes he was Jinwoo, since he got the looks and money, girls chase after him, just like how girls chase after you, but I am glad you are different Jinwoo, you don't sleep or mess around with these crazy girls who chase after you". Sung Mi Na said and Jinwoo smiled.

"So back to the present, who is the girl who stole my son's precious heart". Sung Mi Na asked, smiling and Sung hye's ears stood, eager to hear who Jinwoo was talking about.

Jinwoo smiles and says. "You already know her mom".

"I do". Sung Mi Na asked, raising her eyebrows.

"Yes you do, and you already like her alot like a daughter". Jinwoo said, and a huge smile appears on Sung hye's face.

"Wow, so are you going to tell her how you feel?".

"I'm not sure if I can be a mom".

"And why not Jinwoo, are you shy to tell her you love her". Sung Mi Na asked.

"No mom, it's just that I don't want to get hurt".

"Hurt, how son".

"What if she doesn't love me back, I don't want to get rejected".

Sung Mi Na smiles and says. "There is no harm in trying Jinwoo, and besides there is no girl who is going to turn you down, have you look at yourself in the mirror, you are Every girl's dream man, so cute and handsome". Sung Mi Na said smiling, Jinwoo chuckles with a smile, and Sung hye also smiles from where she was hiding.

"So do you think it is okay if I tell her how I feel?".

"Of course Jinwoo, just let the cat out of the bag else you want her to be taken by someone else".

"No mom, I don't want that, it's going to be the end of me".

Sung Mi Na chuckled with a smile and asked. "Do you really love her that much?".

"Yes mom, it just took me a while to conclude what I feel for her".

"So you are going to tell her how you feel".

"Yes mom, I just hope she feels the same way". Jinwoo said, Sung hye smiles and quickly leaves the house.

"Am so happy for you Sung hye, finally your love story is about to begin".

"I know right, am sure he is going to confess his love for me today, so can you borrow some clothes and make up".

"Why Sung hye".

"Are you seriously asking me, Ji eun, I have to look good today, I don't have those sexy clothes you have or make-up, what am I asking you to lend me some".

Jisoo comes downstairs and sees Jinwoo waiting for her, she smiles and walks up to him.

"Jinwoo". She calls, and Jesse turns to her, and he couldn't stop staring at her, admiring her beauty.

"Is there something on my face?".

"Huh". Jinwoo comes back to his senses.

"You keep staring at me, so I was wondering if there was something on my face".

"Nothing Jisoo, I am sorry, I just lost control".

"Huh,,,, control of what".

Jinwoo bites his lips and causes himself inwardly for being a coward. "Is nothing Jisoo, I am sorry".

"You keep saying sorry is everything okay with you". Jisoo asked, wondering why he was acting so indifferently today.

Jinwoo bits his lips again, not knowing what to say. "Do you want to go out?". Jinwoo finally said, trying to change the topic.

"Where". Jisoo asked with a smile.

"On a date".

"On a date". Jisoo asked, looking at him.

"Yes Jisoo, will you go on a date with me?". Jinwoo asked, looking at Jisoo.
