Episode 18

Four years ago when Ran was at the hospital, she refused to see Ella as she remembered every single words Ella have said about her boyfriend. Ran was blindly in love so she refused to take Ella advice or concerned.

Ella didn't know the reason why she end up in hospital. After 5 minutes of pleading to see Ran, she was accepted but no one tell her the accident until today.

"What? So, you hide it for me for 4 years? You worry I will felt disgusted by you?" Ella is shock to hear about Ran past accident and sad at the same time. She's sad that Ran didn't love her or trust her enough.

If she tell her about what happened back then, she'll be there for her everyday making her safe by being there.

"How was I so blind?" Ella crouch down with tears.

"I'm sorry, Ella. It's not your fault for my accident. I should have told you everything. I was too embarrassed to tell you and I don't wanna see your reaction."  Ran said.

"It must be hard for you to suffer alone." She still continues crying.

"Hey, don't cry. I'm here alive so don't be too sad about what happened back there. It's already in the past." Ran crouch down to her to pay her head like a little kid crying and the mother try to soothe her by patting her head.

"But what are you going to do?" Ella look up to Ran and asks.

"Huh? About what?" Ran was confused as what Ella asks.

"About that man." Ella said.

"Ooh you mean Kai?" Ran asks. She gets nervous once she start to remember what Kai has told her.

"Yes. What are you going to do?" Ella asks again.

"I actually don't know either. I don't want to see him because I'm sure the air will be tense and uncomfortable." Ran said looking down.

"Beside I don't have that kind of feelings. Yes, I like him but only as a friend. I don't like him in a romantic way so yeah." She said as she playing with her fingers.

"Oh that's good then. As long as you don't like him that way, you can be honest with him." Ella was somewhat relieved that's Ran doesn't have any kind of feelings toward that guy. She doesn't want her best friend to date anyone she barely knows.

"But I don't think I can face him. Should I just avoid him?" Ran asks. She doesn't know what to do if they accidentally bump into each other.

Ding!

"Ah.... who could it be in a bad time?" Ran said as she takes out her phone in her pocket.

She checks to see who text her and she was surprise. She never thought of him texting her. She quickly replies to a text and shove it back to her pocket.

"Who's it?" Ella asks.

"Ahh.... it's Daniel. The one who save me from the kidnapper." Ran said.

"Hum? Daniel? Your soon to be fiancé?" Ella asks after hearing his name.

"I have never see that Daniel so how would I know?." Ran shrugs.

"Humm ... I don't think it's the same Daniel.. probably someone who share the same name." Ella said.

"Yeah." Ran nods.

"What did he say?" Ella asks.

"He wants to meet" Ran said. She's a little happy that he texted her. He was her savior and she couldn't help but wanting to give him something back. Whatever he asks, if only.

"I see. Go, meet him." Ella shoo her with her hand gestures her to go.

——————————

"I didn't think you would agree to meet." Daniel said after Ran take a seat facing him. He asks her to meet him at restaurant.

"Do you want me to go? I can go home now and texted you to reject your invitation." Ran said trying to stand up.

"Ah... no, sorry." Daniel faces is hot for embarrassment and look down while holding Ran hand.

"Pstt.. hahaha." Ran tried to hold her laugh but end up laughing out loud.

"What is so funny?" Daniel said looking up.

"Ahh... nothing.. I was joking." Ran said.

She just realize she felt comfortable with Daniel just her second time meeting him.

On the other side————

"Did you see them clearly?" Mrs. Cho asks.

“Yes, luckily I brought my glasses with me or I’m going blind. Did you see them?” Mrs. King said.

“Let me tried to look who’s that girl...ooh my..” Mrs. Cho gasp.

“What? What’s wrong?” Mrs. King look at her with a worried look.

“That girl..” Mrs. Cho point her indent finger and so Mrs. King look at her finger direction.

“The one with my son? Do you know her?” Mrs. King asks because she also haven’t see Ran. Mrs. Cho and her were separated for too long and they only get into contact not too long ago.

“Yes! She’s my daughter.” Mrs. Cho said.

“Omg really? Your daughter?” Mrs. King feels relieved because the person her son meeting up with is no other than her soon to be daughter in law.

“Is she the one he likes? If so, I’m happy.” Mrs. Cho couldn’t feel more happier than she could ever feelings.

“Oh wait... I have a good idea right now. Give me one of your daughter pictures and I’m going to ask if the person he likes is Ran and if he say yes then it’s settle.” Mrs. King said with a big smile on her face.

“Wait.... ask him if he likes her and if he say yes, don’t tell him anything about Ran. We can just pretend to know nothing and push their marriage. I want to see what their reactions looks like when they know they are engaged.” Mrs. Cho said clapping her hands thinking she got a good idea.

“Umm... that must be too much but sure.” Mrs. King nodding her head.
