A Blinder
THE END OF A DAY

"Why is Areun lying? Why did Areun deceive me all this time?" In the back passenger seat Jaemin looked out the window blankly. His finger held the side of his forehead which he had fixed on the glass.

Jaemin came to coincide with lunch starting. Jaemin immediately joined in sitting next to Areun. Without a greeting to Areun.

In the middle of eating, Jaemin stood up and was about to give fried chicken to his cousin Nora. "People can't see won't have a catchy reflex." He thought of deliberately dropping the chicken thigh. With his reflexes Areun caught the chicken thigh.

"Jaemin up! Be careful, dear dong!" Reproof Mother. But no one there noticed Areun could catch the chicken thighs blind.

Finish eating Jaemin towards the room first leaving Areun, not as usual. Areun had not been suspicious of Jaemin's actions. He followed Jaemin to the room.

"Darling!" Call Areun because he did not see Jaemin around the bed while the bathroom door and clothing room opened and did not show Jaemin there.

The door that had not been closed Areun when he entered, suddenly sounded closed. Areun looked back.

"Darling what is you?" Areun asked pretending not to see Jaemin near the door staring at him.

"Who did you see?" Jaemin replied as he walked over to Areun, hiding his left hand behind his back.

"What's wrong with him? Looks very angry." Think Areun.

"I have to do this, because I want you to confess your lies immediately." Jaemin said in his heart.

"You know I have a little secret?" Ask Jaemin. "I can kill people when I'm angry." He said he straightened his hand which he had been hiding from behind, revealing the tip of the blade from behind his rear-facing grip.

"What does all this mean?" Ask Areun inwardly, frightened, slowly retreating backwards. "Did he know my lies?"

"Do you have a secret like I'm Areun?"

"Confidential?" Areun asked nervously, turning to look back at Jaemin.

"Maybe," replied Areun hesitatingly, shrugging his shoulders.

"Can you see what I'm holding now?" Jaemin showed a shiny silver knife with a engraved dragon engraved on the handle. Areun gulped, his body trembling in fear, he shook his head.

"Stop lying, Areun!" Jaemin shouted in Areun's face.

"Sorry.I'm sorry." Areun drooped, sat down and cried .

"Why are you lying to me?" Jaemin gripped Areun's upper arm forcing him to stand up.

"I-i'm forced. It's because I'm afraid of losing you." Areun replied, continuing to cry. "I originally wanted you to cancel our matchmaking because that's why I pretended I couldn't see. But I do seem to like you. At that time we didn't know each other, I was afraid you'd call off the marriage if I admitted I was lying. I really want to marry you, that's all I have in mind."

"Then when I say I love you, you should be honest. I clearly said I can't hate you because I love you. Even when I want you to get treatment, you still choose to lie to me."

"I'm afraid you'll be angry like this."

"I'm angry this much because, why should I know from others? Why didn't you say this before."

"I'm sorry but please understand, I.."

"Understand what?" The tone is back up. "Understand how stupid I was you could have fooled all this time? I've done everything for you, Areun. I didn't even ask Mr. Hide to investigate you despite the amount of information that I could not be precise about you. Because I believe in you so much." Jaemin's reddened eyes glazed over.

"I see your innocent face. But I was wrong, it turns out that you are the same as that woman. Full of deceit." The emphasis in the last sentence seems to indicate a wound that has not healed.

"I'm sorry Jaemin! I beg you to forgive me!" Areun was so begging in his tears. Putting his palms together on his face.
