Love, Life, and Jennifer

Love, Life, and Jennifer
Kimberly Tan's!


I'm woken...


My world seemed to stop, looking at the man who a week ago landed his warm kiss on my lips, now walking shamelessly and embraced by a woman...


Bell's voice, wake me up!


I immediately rushed to walk towards the entrance of my house.


"Yes... Just sec..." I said for a moment before opening the door.


And when the door was opened...


"Good night..."


That lady...


For some reason, his face seemed familiar to me. It's pretty!


And his smile, what a charm!


Even for a moment, I was glued to his face, until...


"Kim... My wife... Jennifer.." - Jennif..." Young Joon pointed at me with a typical drunken voice.


The woman smiled.


"Well, where should I take him?" Said the woman grimacing a little, because I think Young Joon's weight is quite burdened.


"Eh... Tha-that... Come here!" I said I was going to help her carry Young Joon's body.


"It's okay, I can take her with me." He said with a smile.


'Bring him with me'


For some reason, hearing that sentence, my heart piqued!


"Alright!" I said then I pointed it upstairs.


And when I opened the door to Young Joon's room, it was a bit hesitant to go into it, because... Whether it's our apartment in Indonesia, or our house here, I've never once entered Young Joon's room.


"Jenny darling... Come... Come inside... Accompany me..." Young Joon muttered again.


"here... Bring him in here..." I said to direct the woman inside.


Nah! I still didn't have the guts to go with them, and preferred to wait at the door.


When the woman breaks down Young Joon's body, Young Joon suddenly grabs the woman's body, then holds her...


I immediately turned my body in another direction! Be ill... I don't know!


I don't even know for sure what my heart feels like right now!


Especially when the woman said...


"Oppa... Stop that!"


I'm stunned!


Somehow it feels...


My tears even, just flowed away, and I immediately wiped them away.


5 Minutes later, the woman approached me.


"Ummm... Jenny?" He said with a smile.


I immediately turned to her, and tried my hardest to smile.


"Eh, huh?"


"If I'm not mistaken, it looks like we already know each other." He said with a smile that seemed to be made as charming as possible.


"I'm sorry?" I said make sure.


"You, Jennifer Lie, right?"


How could he know?


I looked at him in wonder.


"Y-yes.. How can you..."


"Lhhhhh!" He patted both of his palms slowly, then extended his hand.


"Me, Kimberly! Kimberly Tan's! Your upperclassman was in Guangzhou!"


'Deeeeeggghhh!'


Kimberly Tan's...


That girl's... That annoying pretty girl... The daughter of a mayor!


To be honest, his face felt familiar to me!


I smiled bitterly, then welcomed her hand.


"Yeah... How are you?"


"I'm so nice, so nice to meet you again, Jen!"


That smile... Huuuff!!!


Isn't he so perfect?


When compared to me, don't I look so low?


Perfect face, beautiful body shape, and... What a charming smile!


Beautiful, smart, and rich!


Perfection as if it were just his!


"She looked really messed up, when I met her at the bar earlier." He said when we were at the entrance of the house.


"Eh?"


"Yeah! It seems like he's having a pretty serious problem."


"Eh, that... Oh yes, Kim... Don't you want to spend the night here, it's already hit..." I immediately grabbed the phone from my pajama pocket.


"Not to." He immediately interrupted my words.


"Eh?"


"Young Joon oppa will be surprised to see me in this house tomorrow morning."


Young Joon oppa's...


Hearing him say that word, my chest felt tight and painful simultaneously...


"Alright, Jen! I'm leaving now, yeah... Bye bye!" He said a moment after peeking at my right cheek, then passed.


I'm still stuck here, staring blankly at where Kimberly's car was parked, even though it was a few minutes ago.


Every word that came out of his mouth, as if it made a new wound in my heart.


My tears came back when I remembered the incident.


I immediately closed the door, then stepped upstairs, about to go straight to my room, after all, Young Joon has gone home, there is nothing else to worry about!


And as I passed Young Joon's room, I faintly heard Young Joon muttering...


"Pour the wine again, Kim..."


'Deeggghhh!'


I immediately stopped my steps, and stared at the door of Young Joon's room...


My tears are now flowing freely!


During my 8 months of living with Park Young Joon, I never felt this sick!


Seeing him come home drunk is new to me! Moreover, coming home drunk, then being escorted by a woman, that was the worst thing!


Young Joon, do you know that I really hurt a lot, this time?


**********************


The next day, as usual I prepared breakfast for us to eat together.


When everything was ready, I immediately sat down and took a sip of milk, then fiddled with my phone.


Not long after, Young Joon came, and sat down directly in front of me.


"Yummm... Jenny." Jenny." Said doubtful.


I immediately looked towards him.


"Mmmm..."


Young Joon looked at my face doubtfully, as if thinking what to say.


"Yummm... About last night..."


I immediately put down my phone, and interrupted her words.


"Yeah! Kimberly explained it to me last night, ummm... I mean, early this morning." I replied as normally as possible.


Young Joon looks at me.


He felt guilty about last night.


His face was red, and his eyes were teary.


"Jenny..."


I immediately grabbed my phone, and turned towards the screen, acting as if someone was sending me a message.


"All right! I'm leaving now! Bye bye!" I said then passed, leaving Young Joon, who seemed to be explaining the incident last night.


No need, Young Joon! No need at all!


The more I hear from you, the more it will hurt my heart!


Along the way to campus, my tears were unceasingly flowing!


I hate myself for not being able to understand my husband!


I hated myself, who let other women, understand my husband better!


I hated myself, who refused to hear an explanation from my husband!


Young Joon said to me, I can't cross the line! But didn't, her behavior last night, already so crossed the line?!


What's wrong with her?! Then, what's wrong with me?!


**************


When I was in college, my unusual attitude, teased my three friends, especially Shierly.


"What's wrong with you today, huh?!" Said Mark.


I looked at him, with a smile.


"Either... Maybe soon my period will come." Answer me


Shierly looked at me carefully. And I smiled at him.


"Looh! That woman, it's too complicated!" Mike's Sahut


"Alright, Jen! How about we go to Rob's house in the afternoon?" Take Mark


"Today Jenny's going to my house!" Ketus Shierly's.


I looked towards him.


It's 15:45, and I've been lying on Shierly's bed.


"Is there a problem?" Shierly who was currently lying next to me, now turned to look at me.


I shook my head faintly, then turned towards him.


"Are you playing riddles with me?" The snide, and I smiled too!


"There is nothing to hide from a Shierly Abigail Benson!" I said, then we laughed.


*******************


At 10 p.m., and I was lying on my bed.


Still am! I am still waiting for my husband to come home...


A few minutes later, I heard the sound of the engine approaching my house, and made me rush to my window.


That's Young Joon's car!


Moments later, Young Joon gets out of his car.


He did not go straight into the house, and seemed to be contacting someone across the street.


His face stiffened, until a moment later, he stared at the phone screen with a frustrated look!


Young Joon wiped his face with both hands, not long after, he finally entered our house.


What's wrong with her? Does he have problems in his office? Or is there something else that is ruining his life?


I don't know!


A few minutes later, I heard her footsteps, approached my room, and then...


'Tok... Geck... Geck!'


"Jenny? Have you slept?"


I did not answer him, until I finally faintly heard his footsteps away from my room.


I don't know... It was nice to meet him...


Because, every time I look at his face, I think back to last night...
