Ha Neul POV

"We are here"

I got out of the car and went to open the door for the annoying CEO. I had to do this in order to repay for just now. He sprained his ankle while saving me so it is just normal to repay him back. I hope that he doesn't ask for anything else. This is already enough. I don't want to get too involved in his matters. I am still a fashion designer not his secretary.

I took out his long legs out of the car before supporting him with my small and petite body. I am sure going to have back pains later on. Why must boys be so heavy?

When I was reaching to his doorstep, one of his bodyguards stopped me and I handed him the annoying CEO. My job here is done. We are even now.

Leo POV

"Son, what happened to you? Why are you limping like that? Did you sprain your ankle?"

"Ne,Omma. I accidentally fell down when I was working just now. Don't need to worry so much about me. I will skip the family dinner this time."

"Is that so? Then take care of yourself. The bodyguards will take care of you. Remember to eat dinner, okay? I will be going now with your sister. Myungsoo is outside right?"

"Ne..."

"Bye mom, have a good dinner." We have this special dinner every 3rd week of the month with my fiancee's family. We have this ever since last year when I agreed to marry Min Seo ssi. Hope that she doesn't worry about me so much. I'm sure that she would tell Min Seo about it.

I sighed and went to take a shower.

After showering, I looked at all the pictures that I had taken with Amber 4 years ago. It was so memorable. It always makes me tear up whenever I think about it. I thought that I would not meet her ever again. But now, what should I do? Should I carry on with the engagement? Should I try to win Amber back?

I almost gave up on Amber when she has left my side for almost 4 years. She was my first love. It was so hard to move on. I still remembered how we first met. We bumped into each other and our phones got switched. My heart beat like crazy when I first heard her voice. It was so charming and soothing. That is when I knew that I have fallen deep in love with you. That is why I wanted to be friends with you.

I wonder why we had to be separated all of a sudden. Because of that accident, my heart was in pieces and wounded deeply. I was so depressed, I almost had depression but Myungsoo saved me from that. He told me that I shouldn't be standing in the same spot forever, even if it hurts, I need to let go of it one day. In this way, it wouldn't hurt much.

My phone vibrated when I was thinking of all the happy moments that I had with Amber.

"Are you okay? I heard from your mom that you sprained your ankle. Are you still able to walk?

From: Park Min Seo"

As expected, she had already told Min Seo about it. That is what all mums do, they make a small matter into something big.

"Yeah, I'm fine. It is just a small injury, I will be able to walk in a few days time. What did Mum talk about during the dinner?

From: Taekwoon"

"Oh, just some random things. She told me to accompany me to go shopping tomorrow. One more thing, the food we had today was good. I bet you would be drooling at the thought of food. Hehe....

From: Park Min Seo"

"Hmph, you know me too well. Better prepare some ointment tomorrow, you will know what I am saying. Good night, Min Seo ssi

From:Taekwoon"

"Arraseo, I will listen to you well. Good night Oppa.

From: Park Min Seo"

Min Seo is just like my sister but more graceful. Linda is so annoying and always asks me stupid questions when she is younger. But I could see a bit change in her personality as she recently had a boyfriend.

I better not let her know that I knew Amber was alive and planned to keep it a secret.

There is a 30% that the secret would not be let out but I don't know about the other 70%. It is damn hard to hide things from her as she has X-ray eyes. Nothing could not escape her eyes. I better pray that it would be successful.

"Oppa? You in? I'm coming in now." whenever I talk or think about this kinds of things, she would be around.

I quickly kept the photobook that I had took out again.

"Come in. My door is not locked. Have something to ask me about?"

"Oppa, I am going to introduce my boyfriend to the family in a few days time. What do you think?"

"Of course I would go, my baby sister is finally getting a boyfriend. Where would it be?"

"I will tell you when the time comes. What is that photo doing there?"

Photo? What photo? Didn't I kept them all? I turned around and saw a picture with me and Amber.

"Emm........"

"Thinking about Amber again? You got a fiancee, this isn't the time to be thinking about her. You are getting married in 2 months. Min Seo unnie would be so heartbroken if she finds out. You know that she is the type that clings on to something forever."

"I know, I was just looking at the photos for the last time. You know that it is hard for me to let go of her."

"Have Min Seo unnie met Amber?"

"Yes, last fortnight."

"I miss Amber too. Bring me there the next time you visit her."

"Sure, you still like her that much since that dinner right?"

"Then I will get going, good night Leo Oppa"

"Night."

As expected, she finds out about me looking at the photos. But luckily she still doesn't know that Amber is still alive and I have met her in person.

I am going to keep the secret of you being alive, in this way mom would not know about it, nobody knows about it. I will protect you at all costs, just like today.
