Chapter 11. Trusting

The morning had started very good, even though when Ji Hoo felt uncomfortable around many people. Graduation always means a reward for all the effort, but also it means smile all day, taking photos and wear long clothes. Shinhwa University had always dedicated to give the best to its graduates, therefore the whole campus was already decorated with the institution's colors, balloons around everywhere, and a lot of confetti.

"You're officially a doctor, sunbae" Jan Di told him as they walked to the out of Shinhwa auditorium. The graduation ceremony had already finished, everyone were outside taking photos, talking and celebrating.

"But I'm officially an international manager" Woo Bin commented putting his arms around Ji Hoo and Jan Di's shoulder.

"Okay, okay. Congratulations to all of you" Jan Di said. Shinhwa University that year had decided to graduate a limit of student from each career. Jun Pyo had graduated the previous year thanks to his family's connections, and pressure from his mother to advance courses and take over the family business. Woo Bin, Ji Hoo and Yi Jeong did graduate that day in different majors, however Yi Jeong had not attended the ceremony because of his affairs in Sweden.

"I want a picture!" Jan Di exclaimed.

"Yah! You're so noisy" Jun Pyo replied, he was there supporting his friends. Ji Hoo only wanted to go home, then he remembered the promise he had made to his grandfather to talk with Jan Di, and he felt a little dizzy.

Jan Di took Ji Hoo's hand and pulled him, Woo Bin took the phone of the girl and prepared himself for taking the picture.

Jun Pyo still was uncomfortable for the fact that Ji Hoo and Jan Di were married. He thought that Jan Di looked really beautiful, her hair was longer than when he met her, it was set into a ponytail, and her long red dress highlighted her fair skin. The shine in her eyes, her pink cheeks. She was totally stunning.

Ji Hoo wrapped Jan Di's waist and they both posed for the photo. Woo Bin smiled as he captured the moment and Jun Pyo snorted in annoyance.

"Can we take a group photo? Come on! You two will go to Paris and leave us here" Woo Bin complained, this caught Jun Pyo's attention.

"What did you say? They will leave? But why?"

Jan Di approached them again taking the cellphone to verify the photo, and smiled when she saw how good she and Ji Hoo looked.

"Vacations, Jun Pyo" Ji Hoo just replied. Jun Pyo looked at Ji Hoo and then at her.

"Good luck knowing Min Seo Hyun, she is amazing, but after all what happened" Shinhwa heir chuckled. Woo Bin's eyes wide open, Ji Hoo sighed.

"Min Seo Hyun? Like the supermodel?" Jan Di frowned. "What does she have to do with us?"

"Omo" Jun Pyo laughed. "Don't you know that she and-"

"Enough, Jun Pyo. Past is past" Woo Bin interrupted. In that moment Ji Hoo's grandfather's car parked right in front of them. He couldn't attend to the ceremony because he had a surgery last minute, however he wanted to celebrate with him and Jan Di.

"Back in home, I need to tell you something" Ji Hoo whispered in Jan Di ear, she smiled and nodded, after greetings and claps from Ji Hoo's grandfather, the Yoons left with the old man, and Woo Bin and Jun Pyo stayed there in the parking lot for a couple of minutes.

Ga Eul looked at the pictures that Jan Di had sent her and smiled, all of them looked so happy, she was going to the graduation of her friends, but two things prevented it. 1) The recall of Yi Jeong, 2) Yi Jeong's mother had called her. Therefore, she was already waiting for the woman.

The place was a public park near the clinic where Ga Eul's father was. She was sitting on a bench as she caressed her little belly. How can she possibly choose between a baby and her own father?

"I'm glad that you make the right decision"

Yi Jeong's mom had took seat next to her, Ga Eul didn't want to face her. Maybe was the perfume of hers or the air but she suddenly felt queasiness.

"Why did you do that?" Ga Eul asked looking at her. Yi Jeong's mother was really elegant, she wasn't as intimidating as Jun Pyo's mother, however, she had charisma to impress you and make you believe everything she wanted.

"Darling, what are you talking about?" The woman replied smiling as if she and Ga Eul were the bestfriends since forever.

Ga Eul was silent as she restrained herself from crying, or rather not falling on the lady and hitting her hard. Then she shook the idea, because that was something Jan Di would do, not her.

"My father almost died-"

"Oh you mean that" The woman spoke again. Then she waved his hand as if she was downplaying the matter. "Darling, it was totally coincidence, I thought your parents already knew the good news"

Park Im Hyun knew exactly what she was doing, she only wanted her sons to be okay, Yi Jeong was her favorite one, because of that she needed to take care about all those little things that maybe could wreck the future of his son. Chu Ga Eul, what a beautiful and nice girl, unfortunately she has no the condition that the So family needed, Im Hyun already was not part of that family, however she knew his former father in law, therefore she didn't want him to kick Yi Jeong out of the family fortune.

The moment when she knock the door and a very political and short woman opened it, she didn't need to fake a smile, however she was there with a purpuse, if Ga Eul didn't want to give that baby the big opportunity of having a health family, a truth healthy in money family, she was going to make it happen at her way.

"Annyeong" the humble woman greeted "Who-who are you?"

"Someone connected to you" Im Hyun replied "Can I come in? I need to tell you something"

"But I'm not so sure if that-"

"Yeobo, who is it?" An old man asked getting close to the door where his wife was.

Yi Jeong's mother sighed. Okay, that wasn't going like she wanted, however she would do anything to make Ga Eul giving up with the idea of havinf the baby beside Yi Jeong. How was that bad? she was offering a brilliant plan, Ga Eul would continue her life, finish her studies and didn't have to quit anything for taking care of a baby, beyond all that, she didn't have to worry about money for rising the child.

"Hello, I think you're Chu Ga Eul's parents?" Im Hyun asked faking a smile "I am Park Im Hyun, Yi Jeong's mother"

But the couple was still confused. But before the couple could reply she took the word again.

"Oh, my son and your daughter. They have some kind of relationship. We are one of the richest families in the country, and I understand that my son wants to have fun with your daughter, or that your daughter looks for something from my son. But my son…He was about to be engaged and now with the pregnancy of your daughter, wow, a gold digger like her in our way it's just ridiculous"

"Listen, I don't know what you are talking about, but I forbid you to offend our daughter in any way, because she is not like that" Mr. Chu said.

"Oh, you don't know…in that case" Yi Jeong's mother took something out of her bag, and handed a folder to the couple at the door, they took it. "You should teach your daughter some manners, tell her to contact me, she knows what to do"

And then she went off, when she turned around she put on her sunglasses, and a big smiled appeared in her lips when she heard the scream of the man behind her. It was good to know that Ga Eul's father had heart failure.

Back to the present, Yi Jeong's mother just stared at Ga Eul.

"I visited them because well... we are having a grandchild in common, but both of them looked so confused. Then I had to show them the ultrasound"

Ga Eul still didn't know what to say. They had some debts because the clinic bill, she had tried to talk with Jan Di about it, but she felt so embarrassed about what was happening to do that.

"You're so cruel, I never had the intension of ruining in any way Yi Jeong's life" she said, the woman beside her smiled. "After all of that, how did appear a magazine in my father's room that announced Yi Jeong's engagement in Sweden? I know that is not truth"

"Really you wanted to see me for these insignificant questions?" Im Hyun replied.

Ga Eul sighed, a large lump in her throat was preventing her from saying what she really wanted to say.

"I need you to promise me one thing" Ga Eul said, the woman nodded "Promise my baby will be okay"

"Of course darling, who do you think I am? I just want the best for that little one"

The young woman closed her eyes, that was madness…but it was the best thing to do for now…

"I accept, I'm going to do what you want" she finally said "I will give you this baby, but stop of harming my parents, also I want that Yi Jeong personally take care of our baby"

Im Hyun smiling nodded.

"I'ts a deal then"

"What kind of deal is that?"

The two women looked up, because that third voice was so familiar to them.

And so it was, Yi Jeong was in front of them. Ga Eul stared at him for a moment, he was wearing a long jacket, light scarf, and despite wearing a beret some strands of his straight hair escaped sticking to his forehead.

"Are you two not going to tell me why are you negotiating about a baby, my baby?"

Ga Eul looked at him and then at Yi Jeong's mom. The old woman stood up and hugged Yi Jeong.

"Sweetheart, what are you doing here? Your father know that you left Sweden?"

Yi Jeong kindly separated his mother from him, his expression was serious and rigid.

"You are going to come with me" he said to Ga Eul.

He walked to the bench and took her hand, he gently pulled her until she got up. And faced with a stunned Park Im Hyun, Yi Jeong walked off with Ga Eul.

As they walked, Yi Jeong had barely turned to look at her, Ga Eul was very nervous, she remembered the last thing she had spoken to him the night before. When had everything gotten so complicated for them?

Suddenly, the young potter stopped, Ga Eul blinked a few times, they were already far enough from the park, they had been walking towards a more urban area, this time they were near a bus stop. But if she thought she couldn't be more amazed, she was wrong, as soon as they were facing each other, Yi Jeong hugged her. She was still for a moment. Two strong arms were wrapping around her, she closed her eyes. She didn't know how much she needed that until Yi Jeong's warmth and being so close to him feeling his heartbeat made her feel safe.

After several seconds, he pulled away from her, cupped her cheeks in his hands and studied her face.

"Ga Eul-yang, I'm really sorry about everything-" he whispered.

"Stop it. I don't want to hear you, I already told you that this is-"

He chuckled as if that seemed funny "I traveled almost eight hours here, I may already be disinherited, I have not eaten, and I have not slept at all. Do not tempt me, you will listen to me"

Ga Eul blinked. Yi Jeong took her hand.

"I owe you an explanation, I know, you also owe me one, but for the rest of the day...Have a date with me"

"What?"

"Miss Chu Ga Eul, would you like to have a date with me?" he quoted the same thing he said when he asked her out for the first time.

"Yes"

There's no better way for celebrating something that with the family. after graduation Ji Hoo and Jan Di went to Jan Di's family's house with Ji Hoo's grandfather, then they returned to their house and had a great dinner. When Yi Jeong called Woo Bin to tell him that he was already in Seoul, Woo Bin made up an entire planification for a party in last minute, however it was cancelled by Yi Jeong, this made Jan Di worried because she knew that maybe it had to do something with Ga Eul.

Night was already rising in the sky of the Korean capital. As much as Jan Di wanted to ignore her friend's words, she insisted a little more, she was in her house, packing things in the bedroom, then Ga Eul answered the phone.

"Finally!" she exclaimed "Tell me you're okay? the baby is fine? Yi Jeong-"

"I know you're going to a trip with Ji Hoo sunbae" Ga Eul said "I don't want to stop you because of my problems"

"Did you break up with Yi Jeong?, I'm going to kill him, I-"

Jan Di heard a weak laugh from Ga Eul.

"No, we...we are fine. I'll tell you everything later, I promise. Yi Jeong is really mad at his family, I don't know if he is going to quit his family's fortune because of me and the baby"

"Hey, listen to me, if you need me just call me, it doesn't matter if I'm in the very Eiffel Tower, you call me" Jan Di replied, then added "Ga Eul, remember that idiot of Yi Jeong really loves you".

"Thanks for that, Jan Di-yah" it was Yi Jeong's voice over the phone "Don't worry and enjoy your second honeymoon. Mmm and trust Ji Hoo about everything, he is very brave for going to Paris after all. Bye"

"Wait! what?" she exclaimed but he already had hang up. She sighed, why everyone was telling her something about the trip to Paris?

Even though all her messy thoughts Jan Di was happy. She already had finished to pack everything, two suitcases, a small bag, a guitar case, she hoped it wasn't much, but she was so excited to be able to spend some free time with Ji Hoo, in that moment Ji hoo entered to their room.

"Grandfather went to sleep. What a day we had today" he said unbottoning his t-shirt. Almost two months married, she already had saw him like that, but she always awed everytime she saw Ji Hoo's abs. Trying to keep her thoughts together she coughed and caught Ji Hoo's attention.

"Be honest with me, I'm sick about all the comments about Paris. Is that capital cursed or something?" she asked walking to Ji Hoo. He smiled sweetly and led Jan Di to the bed wher both of them sat down.

He took a moment to look at Jan Di. She was already wearing her pajamas, a baggy shirt, and matching shorts. Her hair was loose, and her face free of any make-up glowed, however her eyes denoted a fierceness. With the passing of the days Ji Hoo had already learned to understand that his wife used to have that look when something worried or bothered her.

"You're a beautiful" he whispered. She smiled a litte then crossed arms.

"Oh, do you think so? my appareance is very common. Now tell me what is about Paris?"

Ji Hoo got closer to her, Jan Di stayed still.

"It is not because your beuty, althought you're very beautiful. but I mean everything beautiful that you carry inside. those insecurities, doubts and fears, all your feelings make you beautiful"

She blushed.

"Are you trying to change the topic?" she insisted.

"No, I just making a point" he said "Take it easy, I promised earlier to tell you, and I'm going to"

"Can you put on a shirt before?" Jan Di pointed to his bare chest, he chuckled.

"Are you being shy now, Mrs. Yoon?"

She rolled her eyes, but the truth was that it was really difficult to concentrate looking at him half naked. Ji Hoo reached a t-shirt and put it on.

"When I was 6 years old my parents died in a car accident that brings me many troubles with my grandfather, I was practicly alone in this big house witha bunch of servants, however I knew a really amazing girl, her name was Min Seo Hyun, yeah the supermodel, before she became famous she was just the daughter of one of Jun Pyo's mom's friend, she helped me so much, she was just a couple of years older than me" Ji Hoo started to talk.

Jan Di's eyes widened.

"Our friendship also grew up" Ji Hoo continued "Things were really well, I even was able to reconcile with my grandfather, I had sixteen years old when I knew that i really loved that girl, she was an important part in my life, I confessed it to her, but she dumped me like three times, I tried a fourth time when I was in my last year of high school and she agreed" Ji Hoo nostalgic smiled "We had a relationship as a couple for almost 3 years, we were so close and I thought I was in love, I was blind for her, but she...she was something else, she wanted to grow up as a professional, she was not satisfied just being a famous model, she wanted to be a lawyer, the best one, she wanted to surpass the lawyers and judges of her family, she started to go out with more people, our fights were more frecuently until she told me that what we had was not love but grattitude and habit"

"You two had a truly relationship? you know.. like that kind of relationships?" Jan Di asked without thinking, Ji Hoo stared at her and she blushed bacause the stupidy in her question.

"Don't worry, ask away whatever you want" He said "And yes, we did have the truly relationship you're thinking. Her family and she are very open-minded, therefore, she and I lived together during our relationship, our relationship ended the day I asked her to marry me and she told me that her flight to France was leaving in a few hours, also she said that thing about grattitude and habit, then she left, I stayed there with the ring"

"Omo" Jan Di exclaimed, Ji Hoo felt so relieved as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.

"That was years ago, after she left I starting to understand that she was right, I didn't feel a true love for her, just was the habit and grattitude, and I also started to forget her, and I did it. Then, I met you, and you brought to my life something really different" He said taking Jan Di's hand.

"Oh, she was your first time, you didn't want to tell me that day, a painful memomry. I'm so sorry for forcing you to tell me this"

"There's another thing, she is still living in Paris, she is sending me letters, emails and trying to contact me since last year . But, I haven't reply to any of them, because of that if she finds out I'm in her city maybe she wanted to talk to me"

Jan Di blinked.

"Why you don't want to talk with her? are you afraid of feeling something for her again?"

"Are you turning jealous right now?"

"Just answer me!"

"No, I'm completely sure I'm not going to feel love or attract to her, Yoon Jan Di, I'm completely crazy about you" He assured her "It's that I don't know, I don't want to see her anymore"

His wife was silent for a while more, he wished he had the ability to read thoughts.

"Because of that I didn't want to go to Paris in the first place"

"Mmm, are you sure you're completely over Min Seo Hyun?" Jan Di asked.

"Of course, my little otter"

"If you want we can go Greek Islands instead" she offered

Ji Hoo smiled, but not, he also wanted Jan Di to be happy, and she was so wishful with going to Paris, that he didn't want to ruin that plan.

"No, we already bought the tickets. I always thought that everything that happened with Seo Hyun would stay with me, but it really feels good to be able to fully tell someone"

"Please, always trust in me" Jan Di asked him. "And stop thinking about it, we'll be alright"

"Ok, it's just that, I don't know what I can tell her if I meet her there.."

Jan Di suddenly kissed him, a pick on the lips. This surprised Ji Hoo.

"What are you doing?" Ji Hoo asked.

"To stop you from thinking about others in the middle of night. Specially if it is another woman" Jan Di said.

Ji Hoo blinked and smiled.

"Yah! I already told you that Min Seo Hyun means nothing to me more than a very old friend who made me suffer and-"

Another kiss, Jan Di jumped on him, in this kiss she moved a little her lips making Ji Hoo's mouth parted and moved his lips with her.

"Still thinking about her?"

"No, right now I'm thinking about my wife" he determined

"Oh, yeah? and how is she like?"

"She is the most considerate one, and the most amazing one" Ji Hoo said getting close to her again, then he kissed her.

The kiss started very soft and warm, both were still sitting next to each other on the bed, Ji Hoo began to lean over Jan Di until the girl's back was completely lying on the bed, he was on top of her, then his hands began to rise and fall on the fabric of Jan Di's pajamas. Ji Hoo accelerated the kiss, his tongue and Jan Di's collided, they kissed for a while longer, then Ji Hoo planted kisses all over her neck, Jan Di gasped at the contact.

"Ji Hoo-" She murmured tyrying to get the attention of the man "Ah" she gasped because Ji Hoo nibbled on her neck.

"Ji Hoo, are you sure your grandfather is asleep?" she asked, but Ji Hoo hadn't stop his job in her neck.

"Yes, he is" Ji Hoo barely aswered. As his hands moved inside her pajama shirt, pushing it up to remove it. Jan Di surrendered to his caresses and kisses, leaving in the background whether Ji Hoo's grandfather was still awake or asleep, began to remove Ji Hoo's shirt and caress and kiss every part of him. That night they would show each other how much they loved each other and now how much they trusted each other. Going to France would not be the exception.

Next day

Madam Kang threw all the papers on her desk making Jun Pyo jump. The very powerful woman in her stylish green suit looked over and over at her son in front of her. She hated when things went out of control, that's why everything in her company was completely organized.

She brought the cup of tea to her mouth and took a sip.

"Why in the world you started to spy your sister?" She asked "A DIVORCE?" she then yelled.

"Never in the story of our family has existed a divorce!" Madam Kang continued "You and your friends sabotagged your sister's marriage! do you know what this can mean for us? for the Company?"

Jun Pyo fixed his gaze on the desk and said nothing. Her mother couldn't be so rotten as to want her daughter to stay with such a dangerous and aggressive guy.

After their meeting in Macau, Jun Hee had assured them that she was gathering enough money to leave her husband and ask for a divorce, of course everything was going to end that badly. Woo Bin's bodyguards were watching over them: all of the F4, Jan Di and Ga Eul. The threats had stopped but they were not going to lower their guard.

"And do you think that is my fault?" he replied to his mother.

"You have just ruined one of the most important businesses for our companies, because in all these years your sister has only been obedient, until you and your impertinent friends went after her" her mother scolded him.

"Aish. I'm not in mood to speak about this right now" Jun Pyo said standing up.

"Where do you think you are going?"

Jun Pyo walked and was already at the door.

"Well I didn't do anaything wrong" then he opened the door, he got surprise when he saw an elegant woman in front of him. Yi Jeong's mother was there.

"Good morning, Goo Jun Pyo"

"Mrs. Park, what are you doing here?" he frowned.

Madam Kang also stood up.

"Your manners Jun Pyo" the owner of half Korea said "Leave now, I need to talk with Im Hyun"

Jun Pyo saw his mother and then his friend's. He snorted and left that place, nothing good could be that. Once he left Yi Jeong's mother entered to the office and closed the door behind her.

"I have only ten minutes for you, I hope and it is important" Madam Kang commented.

"Of course it is, I have a proposal for you" Im Hyun said "This can benefit both of us"

This is all!, Omo I have been out of map for days, sorry because of that. Thank you so but so much to everyone of you who read and support this story, really thank you.

This story is almost done. I want Yi Jeong to face all his family if he needs to, because love is about that empathy, when things that one person can do by itself it is done by the other one. He and Ga Eul deserve a good ending.

Aw, Ji Hoo and Jan Di still need to land in France...

Next chapter very soon! take care! I read you at the reviews!

Thanks again, you're the best!
