Chapter 67 - A Human Pillow

Yu Seok took her to a small bungalow near the hills.It was far enough that there was not much traffic but near enough to the university that conveyance to and fro would not be a problem.Xie Eun looked at the small picturesque garden and the cozy place..She could hardly believe that such a comfy place belonged to a taciturn man like him.Guiding her in,he led her into the small,living room and offered to get her some coffee.She turned from observing the home to Yu Seok and looked up at him with her big doe eyes."Yu Seok?How come you have such a warm and snug house?"

You Seok pause mid way and answers,"This was done by someone else."

Actually, this house had been prepared by Aunt Su on his orders.He had planned to give it to her tonight but when he had seen her hesitate in giving her the name of his apartment, he had brought her here. 

"Yu Seok?I don't want coffee.I want to get drunk tonight."

Yu Seok paused in his way to the kitchen and turned to look at her."Haven't you hurt yourself enough over him?"

Xie Eun turned her head away and explained,"Yu Seok,I..I dont want to hurt myself but I want to forget about my pain.Please?You are the only one I can trust now."

After a few bottles of beer,Xie Eun's face had turned red and her cheeks were flushed.Unable to stand still she squinted around and went to observe Yu Seok who was now in the kitchen.Seeing the man standing near the stove, she stumbled and raced and jumped over his back.Her legs wound around his waist and her arms went around his neck.She rubbed her nose against his neck and purred like a kitten.Yu Seok placed his hands under her knees to support her before carrying her back to the living room and putting her back on the couch.Holding her face, he brought a small egg fritter near her mouth and ordered,"Eat."

Xie Eun however shook her head and placed it on his shoulder and whispered,"Yu Seok.You have such broad shoulders!So comfortable!And you are such and outstanding man.Why could I have not fallen for someone like you?Why did I have to love that scum?"

Yu Seok let her rant and tried to unwind her vice-like arms from his neck.But Xie Eun had no intention of letting him go.She clung to him like a koala bear and when she still did not feel comfortable,the climbed into his lap like a feline pet. Yu Seok felt a himself stiffen and almost groaned.This girl was like a cat who like to wriggle in his lap.Ans the consequences of this would be him in a cold shower for a long while.....He should have found a female security guard who could have acted as her friend.Then he would not have to suffer such fate.Did he really have to listen to hie own wife prattle about another man when she was doing her best to tease him?But,thankfully,Xie Eun had mercy on him and soon changed the topic thereafter..Picking up a fork from the small coffee table,she stabbed at an egg fritter that Yu Seok had tried to feed her and put it into her mouth.The egg made her think of the egg sandwich that she had thrown on his head and her eyes started to water.She stabbed viciously at another fritter and once again more tears fell from her eyes." If only I had met you first..Even if you are not into me atleast I would not have hurt myself like thiss.or maybe If I had fallen for my husband then...you know Yu Seok..he is also a nice man.My father chose well I think.But I don't want to be close to Wolf.I always wanted to marry a man I would love and who would love me back.But I am a responsibility to him.A promise he needs to fulfill.And I don't want to be that.Yu Seok..I don't have my phone with me and I am staying here tonight,do you think my husband would worry about me?Do you think he would even realize that I am not home..I think he would because he is a good man.But what about me?Does he not deserve the same care as he has shown me?But I don't even know where he is and what he is doing.He will always have my gratitude but what if everytime I see him, I will always think of that Si Jing?Yu Seok, I think..no,i fear that I have given all of my loveee to that basta** and I have nothing to offer but my loyalty and gratitude.Do you think that will be enough for Wolf?

You Seok patted her head,running his fingers through her silky hair and consoled her,"Eun-a, you can never be a responsibility.Any man would feel blessed to have you.It doesn't matter if you have given away all your love...I have enough for the both of us.I am happy if you only remain my friend but don't make me someone you are obliged to.Someone you have to pay back.Your happiness is what makes everything worth it "...As Yu Seok said this,he stilled.He had exposed himself..He looked at her to winder if she had caught on but Xie Eun's eyes were closed and she had fallen asleep against him..Closing his eyes, Yu Seok shook his head.She had made a habit of using him like a human pillow...Sigh...
