I Haven't Heard That Name In a Long Time

"I should go my girlfriend is waiting for me outside" JinHai said leaving

Before he left Su-Hyung thanked him for taking care of Min-Ju and shook hands with him

"I haven't heard that name in a long time" He said

"Who?" Min-Ju was confused she never dare mention JinHai's name in front of anyone after their break up

"That man that was with you for the whole day?" He asked, still brushing her hair with his hand. His eyes cold and uncaring

"He is a friend and he came because you had a meeting" She said getting frustrated at him

"You missed the ending of the party. It was nice. I got about...." Min-Ju stopped listening after that

She was tired and this was the first time she had any rest in days. Min-Ju was tired. Tired of life, tired of this so-called marriage, tired of being tired. She was just so tired

"Oh yeobo* why do you look so pale" She asked. This was the first time she saw him clearly all week and she noticed he was quite pale

"Oh I'm tired today and you should get more rest" He said smiling and kissing her forehead

She smiled at his response, yawning at the process. "You should get some sleep. I'll come to see you tomorrow in the morning" He tucking her into bed and kissing her again on the forehead

He left turning off the light as he walked out. As morning came Min-Ju woke up when breakfast was being served she turned to see that Su-Hyung never left. She rubbed her eyes to make sure and she saw Su-Hyung sleeping on the chair next to her. She smiled, touching his soft face.

"I forgot this existed between us" She said softly. The times changed them. She would have admitted that once upon a time she did love him but time and life changed both of them. He became distant and she stopped trying to please. Her life became miserable. She had become what she had feared as a housewife. her life was boring and effortless. She didn't have to work. She lived the life of a queen but she hated it. But she had endured for so long because she has a son and her son was the most important thing to her

Su-Hyung woke up to Min-Ju touching his face. She was touching his face unaware that he had woken up. She was in a daze staring at the window to the bright yellow sun

"What are you doing?" He asked with a husky voice breaking Min-Ju's daze

"Huh?" She said unaware that she was in a daze and still stroking his face. She removed her hand and smiled at him

"Eat your food" He responded to her and pointed to the food at her bedside. He smiled and held her spoon for her to take and went to the bathroom to wash up

While he was in the bathroom Min-Ju was looking through her stuff in the corner for her phone. She couldn't find it so she went outside to Jae-Hyuk and asked for her phone. He was still standing guard at the door with the other bodyguards and they were shocked that she came out of the door

"Agassi* Why are you here? You should be in bed." He said, trying to support her. Holding her by the waist and walked her back to her bed

"Can I have my phone?" She asks Jae-Hyuk "I don't have your phone. Since you came to the hospital none of us have seen your phone"

"Oh really?" She questioned knowing who took it. Now she wonders why Su-Hyung has been in the bathroom for so long

"Why is Oppa* in the bathroom for so long? I should check on him" She said walking to the bathroom but Jae-Hyuk stopped her and blocked her from walking into the bathroom

'I think the President is fine. You should go back to bed." Pushing her away from the bathroom door

"Why? Wait why? I'm fine" She said trying to resist his pushing but she was too weak too. She was still very tired but a few minutes later Su-Hyung walked out of the bathroom looking refreshed

"Yeobo why did you take that long?" Jae-Hyuk nods and walks out of the room

"I was getting ready. There's a shower in there"

"I didn't hear the shower turn on" She confessed

"You must be tired. Since you're not hearing things. I have to go to a meeting now so get some rest but I'll come back in the evening. Okay."

"Okay" She said kissing him goodbye. He walks out the door with the other bodyguard and leaves his most trusted one behind. Jae-Hyuk walks in when Su-Hyung leaves and sits on the chair next to Min-Ju

Min-Ju continues to eat her breakfast while Jae-Hyuk watches her. "You should eat," She said, feeling bad that he has to watch her. She finishes her food quickly

"Let's get more food at the cafeteria" She said getting up from her bed

"What?" He said worrying for her health "Your worrying over my health you should worry about yours" She said pulling him up from the couch

"Come on. Let's go" She said in a whisper walking to the door

"You too you should come to" Urging the other bodyguard to come too

"Wait can you do that?'' Jae-Hyuk asks

''You don't want me to go alone" She said with a cunning smile

"Let's go" She said having Jae-Hyuk holding her waist so she doesn't fall

When they reached the cafeteria it was full of people. They went in line to get their food and found a place in the corner near the door. But it still made Jae-Hyuk and the other bodyguard anxious

"Why are you looking around? It's not like a spy movie"

"Agassi I don't think it's safe to be here with so many people" The other bodyguard said

"Why is it wrong for me to be in a hospital"

"No...No of course not" Jae-Hyuk answered flustered by her response

"You should take care of your health too. Don't be like me and push yourself for the benefit of others" She said softly and kindly stuffing her face with more food to avoid any more awkwardness that she created

She noticed while she was eating her food that they weren't eating. They were watching her eat waiting for her permission to eat

"Why aren't you guys eating?" using her spoon to urge them to eat. Then they finally eat and hurriedly they ate

They haven't eaten since Min-Ju was admitted to the hospital two days ago. She smiles at how fast they have eaten their food

While they were eating Min-Ju saw someone she never thought would be here

"Oh, Why are you here?" Min-Ju said surprised at her presence

*Yeobo 여보= Honey or Dear

*Agassi 아가씨= Miss or Madam

*Oppa 오빠= Older brother or someone close who is older (Younger female to older male)
