Missing You

Missing You
Responsibilities


This morning seeing my father and mother leave makes me sad. After more than two years I ran away and rejected Dad's decision. Our relationship is back to what it used to be. My mother was also happy with this situation. I don't have to put off my college anymore.


When they accompanied me in the hospital and in the apartment I returned to being a little boy who could always indulge in my parents. Life that is too independent sometimes makes me depressed because there is no place to depend.


I better get back in the apartment. It is still cold outside, even though it is in May. When I turned around to go home, I could not believe I was standing a tall man behind me. I was surprised I almost fell backwards. Fortunately, there was a strong hand holding me and I did not fall.


I don't think he'll ever know if I moved. I didn't tell anyone either. How did he know I was here. It's only ten in the morning. I looked around and there were some people looking at us. They whisper or stop walking because they doubt.


At the moment Mr. Chang only wears a hat to cover his face. He did not wear a mask and glasses that could help him disguise his face. If we continue to be in the crowd, then many people will recognize Mr. Chang just from his posture.


Should I drive him out of here or should I take him to my apartment. The longer I think, the more people see us. I pulled Mr. Chang's arm and brought him inside my apartment.


My apartment building is where a lot of people go because it's close to the subway station. The position facing east makes the morning sun into the room. The building consists of only 4 floors and eight rooms. Each room has its inhabitants.


My room is on the second floor. There is no elevator to go up. I pulled Mr. Chang's hand and climbed the stairs to get to my room


When he entered the room, Mr. Chang looked at my room. My mother left some dry clothes strewn across the chair. I quickly cleaned it up and placed it in the room. "This is your new home?" I nodded and went to the kitchen.


"Dad rented this apartment for two years" After two years my dad hoped my college would be over and I could move to a better place. Of course after I get the job I want.


Being busy preparing tea, I did not see Mr. Chang approaching me in the kitchen. He put his head on my shoulder. "I heard you had surgery in the hospital" He put one of his hands on my right abdomen. Looks like he knows I had an appendectomy.


His hands made my stomach feel tingly. My face was red with embarrassment. I removed his hand from my stomach and turned to face him. "Yes. It was such a grateful time to meet Mrs Chang" Her mother must have told her everything. I asked him not to tell me.


Actually Mrs Chang helped me a lot in the hospital. He filled out the form and contacted my family. If there wasn't him I would have not dealt with that quickly. But I forgot to say thank you. What flashed through my head at that moment was not to let Mr. Chang know.


Mr. Chang locked me in the kitchen. He has no intention of retreating. "You know I'm looking for you after I found out that news from my mother?" i'm down. Of course I know. My phone keeps ringing and my messages keep growing from your number. But I haven't answered either your phone or your message in two weeks.


"I'm busy. Hospital and then move house. My parents are here too" I've been very busy these two weeks moving house. I don't buy much because I rarely buy anything.


I avoided her body while carrying cold tea. I put it on the table. I don't have a sofa in the apartment. Only a table can be used for food in the living room and television. There are several large pillows that can be used to relax watching television.


I sat waiting for Mr. Chang's answer to my question. Suddenly he laid down his body and used my thigh as a pillow. "I'm authorized to search for you" . I let out a disappointed breath. If Mr. Chang had delayed filming because of me, Mr. Park would have been very angry.


I was silent because I didn't know what to say. Mr. Park already hates me for being near Mr. Chang, but now he's canceled filming to look for me. "Mr Chang's best to go back to Busan and continue filming because.." I haven't finished talking, Mr. Chang pulled my head down and kissed me.


After that short kiss, I straightened my head and shifted away from it. His head almost fell on the floor because I shifted my legs, but he was able to avoid it. Mr. Chang sat down and realized that I was avoiding him.


"You heard what Hwan Li said at my house?" I stood up and moved further away from her. "yes" I answered briefly. "So you're avoiding me for that?"


"I've been selfishly expecting Mr. Chang to be someone who means something to me. At that time I did not understand about the world that Mr. Chang lived in. But now I already know and understand." we fell silent in each other's places.


"Pak Chang is a famous artist that many people like. I don't want to ruin the work that's been maintained up to this point" I went to the kitchen to hold back my tears.


"What if I like you and don't want you to leave?" I turned and looked at him. "That can't happen. Mr. Chang had to choose a classy and mature woman. And the woman should be an artist or a businessman. Can't choose a young woman who works as a maid like me."


He looks angry. His eyes turned horrible. He approached me quickly and I couldn't run. "You also want to set me up like Hwan Li. I thought you were different from other women!" I was silent and surprised at his tone.


Mr. Chang kicked one of the pillows against the wall then shouted loudly. Actually I know how depressed Mr. Chang's life is. From a teenager he should maintain the image and company that supports him.


When I was at home I saw many memories of the senior in the vocal group who left him. Sometimes he looked at the photo on debut and fell silent. He also does not drink alcohol and smoke. Every time there was a heavy rumor, the only person who was worried about her was Madam Chang. Mr. Park and his company are only worried about the image of the company.


I came and hugged him from behind. "I actually like Mr. Chang. But what should I do if it can make Mr. Chang's job affected?"


He turned and looked at me "Can't you just stick with the bad words and stay with me?"


Seeing her face made my heart hurt. I really want to stay by his side. But the consequences of what he would receive made me think a thousand times.
