Maybe I Love You
32. Beaten

Jaeha fell asleep for quite a while as he came out of the room and looked out of the twilight window already revealing himself.

“Suho Hyung!” Jaeha was hungry, but he was reluctant to buy it himself

“Suho Hyung!” no answer Jaeha tried to contact Suho but unfortunately Suho's phone was not active. By forced Jaeha had to buy it himself, but he could tell someone other than Suho, but I don't know.

With his head still dizzy Jaeha came out of the office to go to a traditional restaurant close to his office. With a still unclear view Jaeha stopped walking, his eyes fixed on someone who was now silent also not far from him, Jaeha felt he knew the person.

Jaeha continued to try to normalize his vision, the woman walked slowly closer to Jaeha, in the faint close range his face began to look clear making Jaeha momentarily silent, his mind seemed to disappear, his brain seemed to stop working. The woman who was now shedding tears was smiling happily and feeling disbelief. Without hesitation, the woman hugged Jaeha tightly.

“Jae. I finally met you! Jaeha!” the sobs of the woman broke wetting Jaeha's coat. Helena, she did not expect to meet Jaeha by accident today. she should have gone away from Jaeha because this was not part of Minho's plan, but he could not be like that anymore, he misses Jaeha too much, misses him so much after not seeing him for so long.

Jaeha was shocked, everything felt like a dream, he felt this was real or hallucination, but this touch really felt real. All this time her search has yielded no results but it turns out Helena is here, in her country and now the woman hugs her.

“Helena.” Call Jaeha

in a quiet voice, but Helena could hear it

Helena nodded, “iya Jae, it's me.” Now Jaeha's hand moved, slowly but surely he returned Helena's embrace accompanied by snow falling from the sky for the first time this year.

In a roadside car, a woman is as shocked as Jaeha, Sena. In a hurry he returned from the orphanage to give an explanation to Jaeha but it turned out that he had an unexpected surprise that made his heart ache, really sick.

“you... Jaeha.”

Just a moment ago, before entering Jaeha's office parking lot, Jonghyun contacted Sena, knowing it was important Sena stopped her car first to receive a call from Jonghyun.

“I'm sorry I just got in touch with you, so many jobs in the office that I forgot to tell you.”

“nothing, I understand. I also forgot to ask.”

“Sena, are you sure you'll be okay?”

“aku. But just tell me I have to know the truth and I asked for it myself.”

for a few seconds Jonghyung did not speak, “Sena... Jaeha and Helena are married.”

Jonghyun did not hear any words coming out of Sena's mouth over there, “Sena! Sena are you okay?!”

There's no answer.

“Sena! Answer me! Sena!”

“hm, I'm fine.”

Jonghyun in disbelief, “where are you now?!”

“oppa doesn't have to worry about me, I'm fine.”

“don't lie to me Sena! From your voice I know you're not okay! tell me where are you now?”

“really.I'm really fine. don't worry! I married Jaeha because I was forced to why I was sad about this news.”

“Sena,” Jonghyun felt guilty telling this to Sena.

“oppa, are you not working? Grandpa will scold you later!”

“seriously are you okay? I have to take responsibility if anything happens to you.”

“do you want something bad to happen to me?”

“not Sena, not so—“

“this is still working hours for you, I also have to do something, bye!”

Sena tried not to shed her tears, her lips trembled, her face flushed with the tears that wanted to come out, even she bit her own lips trying not to cry even though her mind was in a struggle to scream.

‘why did this happen to me? Eomma... why.... why should I?’

Jaeha was at Helena's house sitting at the dinner table waiting for Helena to finish her main meal, Jaeha kept looking at Helena as if this was just a dream. Helena's chances of life are very small after the plane crash there is no way Helena can survive, although Helena has told Jaeha, but the man still does not believe in the miracle.

“tada!” Helena served me a plate of galbi “ I learned it when I first came here, I remember you liked it so much and used to tell me to learn how to cook galbi. Try that! Although I'm not sure how it feels.” Helena was really happy, happy smile that never faded from her face.

“all right, I'll try it.”

Helena looked at Jaeha who was trying his dishes one by one, “eotte?”

“everything explains that you just learned to cook.”

Helena smiled wryly, “iya true, but lumayankan?” Jaeha nodded, enough to make Helena smile again happily.

“ya I have to go back,”

“hmm, when I want to be with you longer I also want to tell you a lot. This is the first time we meet again and you can't stay with me.”

“forgive me.”

Helena looked at Jaeha, the woman smiled sadly, “but you're not happy to meet me.”

“why are you... say it like that?”

Helena thinks that Jaeha must be having trouble with Sena, living together without love is not wearing. “if you feel uncomfortable in your house, you can stay here.”

Jaeha seemed shocked by Helena's words, although he did not understand why Helena said the word, “why are you so surprised? What's wrong with us living together? I'm your wife.”

Jaeha has a bad feeling, his feelings are mixed whether what he feels now everything feels unclear, especially suddenly the shadow of Sena appears in his vision.

“Helena, I have to go back to the office. There's still something I need to do.”

Helena pouted, she didn't want Jaeha to leave but she couldn't help it either. It's not time yet.

When he returned to his room, Suho was already there from the sitting position of Suho then stood up and approached Jaeha.

“where did you finish?”

“aku... out find a meal.”

“search eat with Helena?”

Jaeha was surprised how Suho could tell that he had met Helena, “you don't need to know how I could catch you both.” Suho picked up the paper bag and gave it to Jaeha, the contents of which contained the lunchbox.

“who is this from?”

“wife, Sena!”

“Sena?! Sena came to the office?” Suho nodded, “dia... deliver this?” Suho patted again firmly

“you still doubt it? What the hell is going on with you guys? you didn't come home for two days, you kept sleeping in the office.”

There was a happy smile behind all his whirlwinds today, “tell me,” pinta Suho while sitting down

Finally Jaeha was honest about the problem, “I feel lied to by him Hyung.”

“then you were with Helena?”

“you seem to be judging me. My feeling, my mind is in a mess don't add it again Hyung!”

“what did Sena lie to you?”

“she received the necklace from Minho but when asked she said the necklace was from Sujin, how could I not be disappointed. He didn't say anything about Minho, I don't think he had any feelings for Minho but it turned out!”

“indeed receive necklace or meet the sign is still love?”

“then what?! they once loved and almost ran away if I didn't stop them!”

“what's wrong if a Brother gives his sister a gift of a necklace?”

Jaeha looked surprised by Suho's question, it was only thought of by him, “would it be?” ask Suho again

“indeed... indeed not! But Minho still loves Sena I know it's Hyung!”

“oke if you still think like that, Minho still loves Sena, but Sena herself, does she still love Minho? Are you sure they meet often for dates?”

“aku... I do not know.”

Suho let out a long sigh, “I noticed Sena was not good when delivering this,”

“less good?! you mean, Sena is sick? She should be in an orphanage too, why is she even here?”

“no, if you're really worried about her just check it out yourself. He has dared to deliver this to you why are you still so stubborn?”

Jaeha said nothing, “and again, I want to ask you a question that might be the toughest choice for you.”

Jaeha looked at Suho, and vice versa, “do you choose between Sena and Helena? Helena is in your past, now you're with Sena. You will go back in your past or continue your desire to get more from Sena?”

“Jae, do not choose both. Someone will be hurt in the end. You have to choose between them which one you want to fight for. I say it like this because I care about you, you're like my own sister I want the best for you. Please think carefully about which one you love more.”
