Chapter 087

❝ A sorry can't fix broken hearts Park Jongseong. ❞ She tried her best to be strict in front of him, whether the boy still sees her as his cute little yet short-tempered soulmate.

She would be lying to herself if she didn't wanna admit that she still has a soft spot for Park Jay just like other times. The only thing that got her invested in him was that, did he really change or regret his decisions?

She wasn't a toy for him to pick up from the trash whenever he feels like it. Her pride and dignity wasn't that low for him to crunch it that bad.

She's still salty that he betrayed her for Hwang Mijoo a while ago and acting as if everything's fine.

❝ But what can I do when you're the only soulmate I love? ❞

Although purity didn't engulf the developed boy, his sincerity was outshining as Mijin tried her best to calm the teary corners of her eyelids down. Park Jongseong's the only one who can calm her down like this.

Who can drown her into his affectionate love and charms no matter how much she tries to run away from it.

He's the addiction where she wanna devote her true love and desire into. No matter how toxic he could turn out to be. And Mijin didn't wanna bias her stupid feelings and be selfish to herself again. She'd suffered more than she should've already. ❝ Your feelings have nothing to do with me. ❞ Was Mijin succeeding in neglecting? No, she wasn't since the great-hearted girl was feeling so bad to turn her lover down like this but what could she do when he's a poisonous man for her?

Mijin wanted to fall out of love in the fastest way possible since she'll get higher risks to get hurt with falling in love again.

❝ Jinjin-❞ Jongseong tried to cling onto her although he's afraid of being seen as annoying like how they first met. But the girl desperately removed his hand from holding hers with an aloof expression. ❝ Please don't call me by that as well Park Jongseong-ssi.❞ Mijin distanced herself from him as the boy felt weakened than ever as if it identified that she no longer had feelings for him. It scared the young man cause he didn't wanna end his first and last love like this.

Her broad back faced him as a frown crept onto the handsome boy's face to have the girl leave him behind like that. He wasn't even fully recovered from body unconsciousness earlier and now, her abandoning him just bashed his heart into pieces with a hammer.

❝ Please...Mijin...I'm s-sorry...❞

According to their accursed disorders, the two lovers had no other choice but to receive pain if one ever tries to reject their soulmate's requests or feelings which might decrease the bond and less time of getting away from.....

death.

Losing sustainability of being able to process what's going on around or in his mind, the boy collapsed onto the ground while falling unconscious. Hearing a loud thud after Jay's body touched the ground, Mijin cautiously turned around as her brows examined how he's being lifeless.

❝ Park Jongseong! ❞

-

The monitor continuously beeped through the silent and dull hospital room which was filled with loneliness since none other than the two soulmates were around.

As expected, the boy with his irregular symptoms couldn't be diagnosed by the hospital which had no customs on figuring out mystical curses and so on.

Mijin was stuck with Jongseong since she had no other choices from the bonder if she wants him to recover fast and cut ties quick. But the smart bonder thought the upper hand of what to do next once Jay's healed through their bond.

❝ Jinjin... ❞ Calling out for his girlfriend's name which took place in his mind most of the time, the boy fluttered his beautiful eyes open.

Sympathetically intertwining their hands, Mijin leaned in closer to check her frail soulmate right now with concern dominating over her eyes.

The numb boy lovingly chuckled before merging himself to sit on the bed of the room where he's charged it. She can only turn him weak like this.

❝ So you still care for me, huh? ❞ He forced himself to put on a smirk. That handsome face with its devilish smirk was the real owner of Mijin's heart and she failed on trying to drop that fact.

She hates him but an affectionate part of her still loves him as well. He's her only remedy to exist in this world somehow.

❝ N-No, I don't. Stop saying such nonsense. ❞ , Mijin scolds although she's nearly smiling to herself for getting caught like that.

Her stutter made Jay narrow his doe eyes in a teasing manner since he could read the flustered girl's feelings well although she's trying to keep it a secret by nervously chugging down the water.

Noticing another strong presence situating across the room, Jongseong cluelessly met the bonder lady sitting across the room with a beaming smile.

❝ Ohh...Ms.Saeyoon? ❞

Mijin had no reasons to know what the prophet and soulmate bonder was doing here. She just busted into the room with a sheepish grin since the morning as excused herself with being concerned for Jongseong's condition.

❝ I'll leave you two alone with someone else now, goodbye children. ❞ Wearing her glasses on, she just made the confused two just furrow their brows since the 'someone' was really triggering their curiosity and interests.

Soon, a tall male who's the same age as them stepped into the room with great facilities. The two soulmates' jaw dropped at the suddenly ineluctable face lurking around them.

Kang Taehyun just approached them with a sly smile-or a pure one since it's not certified yet....he really was sceptical around them these days.

The patient raises a brow while crossing his arms. ❝ What do you want? ❞ Asking in short, Jongseong managed his voice to not sound too arrogant which would leave some suspicions to Taehyun that he's being the rude and spoiled rich kid like before.

❝ I just have something to tell you two. Don't worry, I'll be quick. ❞ The boy lowered his gaze on the ground before taking out his phone to review the same taken photo of a distressed from Mijoo that day.

The ex-lovers sat in silence until their eyes witnessed the familiar female's face appearing on his screen...and holding dolls inside her hands.

❝ Jay had never cheated on you Mijin. ❞ The girl who Taehyun was secretly admiring finally got to know the news. And Taehyun's glad that he's almost finishing his task quick.

❝ He got cursed by Hwang Mijoo. ❞

The truth was told at last.
