Chapter 49 - Being Followed (1/2)

”Since the two of us as having this cooperation, would not it be better for us to get along with each other? Let's erase whatever had happened in the past,” Sookyung stated.

A wide smile was placed on his face while his eyes sparkled. The aura around him currently had the ability to draw people in. However, Jiwoo remained unimpressed.

”No, I don't like being fake neither am I fond of fake people. That's why, behave with me normally, and don't try to put on that mask. I might truly get annoyed and punch you,” she spoke out.

Oh Sookyung chuckled at her words and said, ”You are really a fool, but you are cute I suppose.”

”If you keep on acting like this, you will be reminding me of my ex, and that jerk is someone I want to break the nose of. That bastard had the audacity to exploit me before running away someone with equally fake personality as him,” she expressed while Jiwoo clenched her hand into a tight fist.

”Ah! This is surprising. Even someone like you can have an ex; I am not surprised to see that person had turned out to be your ex. After all, you have no charm,” he voiced out.

”Do you think you have charm?” she retorted, ”The only reason he became my ex because I dumped him before. I eventually got bored of that two timing jerk and left him. He even begged me to not break up with him, but there was no way I was getting into a relationship with that jerk.”

”What a lie! I would believe that the story is the other way around. That ex of yours found a better girl and wanted to be with her, but you begged him.”

Turning her head back, she glared at him for being so close to the truth; the only part that was like in that was the fact he found a better girl. In Jiwoo's opinion, certainly she was a better option than that Chaeyoung.

”Why are you being this slow with those bags? With those long legs of yours, you should be faster than me! Aish! You are such a disappointment as man!” she commented while she turned towards the front. Her annoyance was clearly displayed through her voice.

Oh Sookyung's lips curved to form a small smirk. Moving his hand slightly backward and forward, he swung the shopping bag in his hand. They came in contact against Jiwoo's back.

Before Jiwoo was able to face him and stare daggers at him, he stated, ”Oops! Sorry, that was totally my fault.”

Holding in her anger, Moon Jiwoo decided upon letting that pass, considering the fact that she was a benevolent person— at least that was how she portrayed herself to be in the situation.

Once again, as the mischievous glint in Sookyung's eyes became more evident, he swung the bag forward, causing it to hit Jiwoo's back— this time with the impact being harder.

Moon Jiwoo tightened her jaw and was about to let out her anger at the boy before he spoke out, ”I am really sorry about it. I am not used to carrying such heavy bags, so at times, I am unable to keep the control.”

'It's alright, Moon Jiwoo. You can hold it in. Be the bigger person in this—'

Before she was able to compose herself and continue her thought, the bags again came in contact with her, and the force used this time around was larger than the previous time.

Being aware that he will not be quitting this unless she made it clear to him, Moon Jiwoo folded her arms across her ċhėst and stared daggers at him.

”Yah! Thief, you are growing really courageous. This is my last warning to you. If this is continued, I would not mind snapping your hands into two,” Moon Jiwoo threatened.
