Chapter 211 - Difference about

"There is a difference between things back then and now, Taehyun," Jinhee said, "I hope you understand that. Even though I see you as a girl, that doesn't mean I am comfortable with a boy entering my room."

"Your words don't make much sense to me. That's why, I will choose to ignore them. What was it that you're crying about?" Taehyun raised one of his eyebrows.

Walking closer to Jinhee, he sat down beside her, and slightly moving to the right, she maintained a distance from him. She was not sure of what might happen if the two of them had skinship; Her heart might burst out of her chest.

"My life," Jinhee answered, "Now that I have said it, can you go back? I have to study now. The exams are right around the corner."

A serious expression formed on his face whilst he turned towards Jinhee, and grabbing Jinhee's shoulders, he turned her so that she would be facing him.

Surprised at his actions, a gasp left Jinhee's mouth, and widening her eyes, she stared at Taehyun. Jinhee narrowed her eyes, trying to guess what Taehyun was about to do.

"Taehyun, what's the matter?"

"Jinhee, I want to continue where we left off earlier. I stopped back then because Soyeon and the driver present there. But none of them are present now," Taehyun said.

"What do you mean, Taehyun? This sounds really wrong," Jinhee vocalised. The temperature of her cheeks began to increase, and nervousness brewed within the pits of her stomach.

"Jinhee, both of us clearly know what I mean," Taehyun vocalised, "You can directly decline me and push me away if you hate this."

"O-Of course, I don't like this, Taehyun! Why are you acting so horny!?" Jinhee exclaimed— unsure of her answer.

Staring at those lips of Taehyun, Jinhee had the nagging desire to taste them. However, she knew that this was wrong in many ways, and if she kissed him, she was afraid that her feelings for him will be confirmed.

All the heartwarming moments with Taehyun flooded inside Jinhee's mind, causing for her heart to beat faster than it already was, and she bit her lip.

As Taehyun's brought his face closer to Jinhee's, Jinhee found her eyes taking in the smallest features within Taehyun's face and her eyes lingered upon his lips.

There was no strength within Jinhee to push the man in front of her away, and she tightly clenched onto the garment of the bedsheet. There was nothing wrong with kissing Taehyun once, right?

Nonetheless, Jinhee's mind still worked properly. If both of them kissed, everything would be irreversible. Jinhee was Taeho's fiancée now, and regardless of what was happening, Jinhee had no intentions of cheating on him.

Taehyun's breath fell upon her lips as he lowered the pitch of his voice and said, "Really?"

Taehyun's euphonious voice was enough to intoxicate Jinhee, and she found herself going weak to Taehyun. There was no strength within her to push him away.

"T-Taeho— I am still his fiancée, and this is not right," Jinhee pointed out.

The temperature of the room continued to rise, and Jinhee found sweat forming on her neck. Her palms were soaked, and she was close to fainting due to the increasing anxiety.

Taehyun chuckled; His deep voice tugged at Jinhee's heartstrings. Her legs gave out and she found the tension between them increasing.

"You don't love him; he doesn't love you. So, this is okay," Taehyun said.

Hearing Taehyun's word, she found herself being convinced at that moment, and subconsciously, she closed her eyes, expecting something.

Taehyun's eyes stared at the girl in front of him and seeing how Jinhee finally submitted to him, he felt joy rise within him. At last, he was getting a chance with her.

Bringing his lips closer to hers, Taehyun placed his lips on top of Jinhee's without wasting another second. Feeling the touch of her lips, Taehyun's heart began to palpitate rapidly within his chest.

The feeling felt too surreal to him. Taehyun did not know how long he had waited for this and her. Finally, she began to accept him.

Removing his palm from her shoulder, he wrapped it around her back and pulled her closer to him. Never would Taehyun let go of Jinhee at this point.

As Taehyun pulled out of the kiss, he saw her reddened lips and had the urge to connect his lips with hers again. Opening her eyes slowly, Jinhee blankly stared at Taehyun.

Jinhee had no idea how to react. She did not hate the kiss and even wanted to try it again. The feel of Taehyun's lips still lingered upon her lips and she could clearly hear her rapid heart beat. She knew that Taehyun could feel it as well.

Her mind was completely confused on what to do. Even though she was resolute to ignore all of Taehyun's advances, she had finally given in , and she wanted to curse herself for that. 

Jinhee stared down at the floor. She did not know what to say or do. What would this make her and Taehyun? This time, she couldn't blame Taehyun either.

Watching Jinhee's expression, Taehyun raised one of his eyebrows and hesitantly questioned, "Should we just forget about what just happened?"

Jinhee immediately whipped her head up and stared at Taehyun. Although that would be for the best, a part of Jinhee was hesitant. She did not want to forget about the entire thing.

Even though her thoughts baffled Jinhee, she wanted to be true to herself, and therefore, she replied, "I think I need to think about it for a while, Taehyun. It would be nice if you could leave me alone."

Staring at Jinhee with determination being present within his eyes, Taehyun said, "I am not doing that, Jinhee-ah. I won't be leaving you alone. Everything will go back to zero then. I really want to know your real feelings.

Although I am willing to be there for you forever, it hurts; It really does. The uncertainty is slowly killing me. Jinhee, can't you be honest with me? If you hate this or like this, just directly say it. Even though I seem like this, this aches me as well, Jinhee. 

I really don't want you to force yourself to do something. Think calmly. That's what I keep on telling myself. I repeat to myself how you'll fall for me one day or another. Even if you don't fall for me, I am alright with being by your side. But in the end, I can't do it.

Jinhee, I really want to hold you in my arms and kiss you to the point it hurts now. So, please, don't push me away. Answer me honestly. These feelings of mine can not ever be erased so don't tell me to move on."
