Mister Night

Chapter 32 - The Truth Will Set You Free



"Shiwoo baby this is serious. There is no time to be fooling around now." said Harin storming into the room behind Shiwoo sounding frustrated and angry.

My brows furrowed and I whispered to myself, "did she just call him baby? What is going on?"

"I am not your baby so please stop calling me that!" He yelled as he sat on the edge of  his bed rubbing his hands over his face seeing equally if not more frustrated.

Harin fell silent and I held my breath as she walked over to him stepping between his legs massaging his shoulders as she spoke, "I have waited patiently for you for years and I am done waiting. Your play time is over now Shiwoo. What did your dad say?

What was she going on about?

Did she know his father?

What else were they hiding about themselves from me?

It must be a lot since Harin has never mentioned her family plus the fact that I barely even knew Shiwoo.

Shiwoo sighed as he got up from his bed pushing Harin out of the way as he went into the bathroom closing the door behind him.

She sat on the bed sighing and I was more confused than ever as why they now seemed so close as for Harin to be calling him "baby".

Was she drunk and mistook him for Minseok her boyfriend?

He was her boyfriend right or was that all just a lie?

I should just make a plan to escape warned my logical side but my nosy side wanted to hear all of the drama.

"Kim Seojin!" yelled Harin smashing her hands into the mattress then proceeded to head towards the bathroom knocking furiously on the door.

I had finally gotten an opportunity to slip away but when I was about to Shiwoo or Kim Seojin stormed out of the bathroom looking angrily at Harin.

My hand on the handle froze and I threw my plan of escaping away.

"Do not call me by my real name. It is Shiwoo to you!" He yelled menacingly a deathly tone in his voice and I flinched almost hitting the clothes off the hanger behind me but luckily I was quick with catching it.

"I can call you any name I want because you are mine whether you like it or not!".

Harin matched the deathly tone in his voice as she squared up to him and I started to feel fearful of her life.

What if he resorted to violence because he was obviously annoyed by whatever she was going on about.

It was a relief that the music outside was loud or their yelling would have caused a seen no doubt forming a crowd.

"Now what did your father say?" asked Harin as she stepped closer rubbing her hands over his chest.

I felt a pang in my chest and I started to feel nauseous.

Shiwoo sighed not even bothering to take her hands off of his chest as he answered her previous question, "he said that we should form the alliance now or else he will cut me off."

Alliance?

The more they talk is the deeper into their lives I get and the deeper they get the more I get confused.

Mommy was right when she said to see people\'s business and leave it alone.

I think I\'m gonna be sick.

"It is time to stop rebelling Seojin. We knew this would have happened since we were kids so why are you acting like this now? Do you love somebody else?"

Shiwoo\'s head snapped up the moment she said those last few words and I felt my breath quicken.

"Is it Atalia?" She asked edging him on farther.

He became quiet and I took deep breaths desperately trying to calm my haphazard breaths by doing breathing exercises.

There was no way that he could love me.

But why was I...hopefully?

"Do you like her?" She asked softly after a moment of silence.

"Does she know who you  truly are huh!? Will she love you if she finds out huh!?"

She started to yell and hit his chest when she got no reaction and I started to fell angry at her.

"She is not the one for you. I am and you will marry me!"

She raised her hand to hit him once more but he held her hand before she could do so, "Do. Not. Hit. Me."

He gave her a death glare as she struggled to pull her hand free.

Did she just say marry!?

My mind went into a typhoon making me dizzy as her words resonated.

I felt bile rise from my stomach to my throat and I couldn\'t hold on to my throw up any more.

I pushed opened the doors of the closet and ran to the bathroom throwing my guts up once more in the toilet.

Tears welled in my eyes as I felt my stomach turning inside and out to get all the food that I hadn\'t digested yet out.

"Atalia!?" I heard Shiwoo asked surprised that I was in his closet all along.

Harin came in behind him arms folded as she looked at me with disgust as I wiped my mouth the back of  my hand.

"What are you doing here? Were you spying!?" She yelled as she came over to me pulling me by the hair.

"Let her go!" Yelled Shiwoo coming to my rescue.

He helped me to stand so I could have flushed the toilet and wash my face before I turned to Harin.

"It was not on purpose" I defended pushing off of me and he looked offended.

"Well you probably need heard everything so now that you know you should stay away from him."

I scoffed and rolled my eyes at her demand questioning if the person in front of me was actually my best friend.

"Umm hello Harin this boy is not your boy friend remember?" I snapped my fingers in her face and her jaw ticked, "your boyfriend is out side so you should go find him" I said as I made a motion to exit the bathroom and the building in its entirety.

"You\'re right" she called after me, "he is not my boyfriend but my fiancé."

I stopped in my tracks at her words turning turning look at Shiwoo but his head was down.

I looked over to Harin to see her smirking and my blood boiled.

My petty side was taking over and I had lost control of my words and emotions before I could stop my self from setting fire to the gasoline,  " well your boyfriend- I mean fiancé is good in bed."

I smirked as I saw her smirk dropped and I looked over to Shiwoo who had wide eyes at what I just said.

"You slut!" Yelled Harin throwing a tube of toothpaste at me which I easily dogged.

I felt enraged by her hypocrisy and started to tell her what\'s was really on my mind, "oh yeah now I\'m the slut?" I chuckled bitterly not finding what I just said funny, "now Miss Harin Kim tell me how does this make me a slut for I am genuinely confused."

I clasped my hands furrowing my brows wanting for her to speak.

I was mad.

No I was really mad so she better choose her words carefully for I will not be responsible for what I will do if she chooses wrong.

"You slept with him when I told you not to which makes you a whore you bitch."

My eye twitched as I slowly walked towards her barely containing my anger as I spoke, " so let me get this straight. I am a slut because I slept with one guy but you are a saint even though you switch guys every week?"

I chuckled at her nonsense finding this revelation funny as she gaped like a fish out of water.

She was about to say something but I was not done.

You see I had a lot of my chest and the doctor says that it is not
