26 This Person Part 4

The real story.

After dinner, Yoshino helped me clean up the dishes and we went out back into the garden.

I needed to tell him but also I had so many questions…

We sat down on the bench outside and started talking.

Yoshino clasped my hands in his and he kissed them, my body shuddered slightly but I kept calm.

"Yoshino, I came to speak to you, I did not look for you so you could do this shit to me."

His eyes sharpened as he looked straight at me and he scoffed, "Since when?"

"Since when what?"

Yoshino: "Since when have you become so cheeky?"

"I had to grow up!"

"Mn… Really why?"

"Yoshino?"

"Ty-chan?"

"There's something I need to tell you."

"Go ahead, I'm listening."

My heart started beating fast and I got nervous, I got up and moved to him and knelt down in front of him.

I grabbed onto his pants and looked up at him.

He was staring straight at me and as I looked at him I started getting emotional, the words refused to come out of my mouth.

------

Min Hee knelt down on the ground in front of Yoshino and drew her gaze away.

She wanted to tell Yoshino everything that happened to her but she couldn't because the past 17 years of her life were painful.

The tears started falling from her eyes and she lost her balance and plopped down onto her butt.

She looked at Yoshino that's expression changed and started shaking her head.

"What's wrong?"

She continued to shake her head.

Yoshino leaned forward and picked her up from the ground and brought her into his embrace and hugged her.

She wrapped her arms around him, with her legs open, locking him in.

She stopped crying and moved her head in order to face Yoshino.

"Shino I lied to you," she said as she started sniffing.

Yoshino maintained his silence and looked at her with a worried expression.

"Do you remember that day when you got me at the clinic?", Yoshino scrunched his face slightly and nodded and asked, "The day you aborted my child?"

She nodded her head and continued, "It was a lie, I lied to you, I lied to you all, I never went for an abortion."

"Then what happened?"

"I was angry at you, I hated you, you were sleeping with someone else and made me feel useless, and that Erina, she, she, she…"

"She what?"

Min Hee's whole body started trembling when she heard that, she looked at Yoshino and fury that was suppressed in her body for so many years erupted, she pushed herself away, got off Yoshino and gave him a smack.

Yoshino's eye were closed after she smacked him and he touched the side of his cheek that was smacked.

He opened his eyes to look at Titania only to see that she wasn't looking at him, she was examining the hand that smacked him.

"Haha"

She laughed and shook her head, she wiped the tears from her eyes and looked at Yoshino.

He had a sad and distant expression on his face and was now looking at the ground, she walked back to him and held his face.

"Yoshino, what I want to tell you is that, Yes I was pregnant and yes I went for an abortion but I never went through with it, I got scared and decided to keep your child."

Yoshino looked at her with tears in his eyes and remained silent.

She observed him for a moment and continued, "I gave birth to triplets and I named them after you, Yoshino, Yoshiro and Yoshiyuki."

Yoshino looked like he wanted to say something but kept silent and bit his bottom lip.

She let go of his face and she sat down beside him.

She sighed and began to tell Yoshino about what happened to her and why she decided to leave him and keep quiet about the children.
