They Were Meant To Be Together | Book 2

256.Simple Life

Present.

After Tzuyu boarded her car, her best friend placed her hand on Tzuyu's shoulder and asked, "Are you alright?"

Tzuyu smiled and nodded her head.

"Why did you reject him? He is handsome." Her best friend said.

Tzuyu shook her head and said, "No matter how handsome he is we are different."

"Duh. You both have two hands, two legs, two eyes, two ears and one nose. So how are you both different?" The best friend asked.

Tzuyu chuckled and asked, "Where should I drop you?"

"Drop me near the bus stand." The best friend said.

After dropping her best friend, Tzuyu drove towards her apartment.

....

Inside the apartment.

Tzuyu gasped in horror when she saw a familiar man standing near the couch as soon as she entered the apartment.

Slamming the car keys on the table, Tzuyu shouted, "Will you please stop crashing into my apartment like this? This isn't your property."

"This is not how to greet your father child." The man said.

Tzuyu rolled her eyes and said, "Cut the crap and tell me what do you want?"

Simon shook his head and said, "Why are you like this Tzuyu? Why can't you be like your younger sister?"

"Step younger sister." Tzuyu said.

"Half sister." Simon said.

Tzuyu laughed and said, "You want me to be like her? You mean crazy and ignorant?"

"Obedient and supportive." Simon said.

Crossing her hands in front of her, Tzuyu said, "No thank you. I am happy with how I am and I am sure you won't be able to handle two crazy daughters. Now if you please excuse me, I have to go."

"I want you to come back and help your younger sister in our business." Simon said.

"You call that illegal thing a business? Do you even know what a business is?" Tzuyu shouted.

Before Simon could say anything, Tzuyu added, "Listen to me for one last time neither am I not interested in your business nor in you. So please stop disturbing me."

"You can despise me as much as you want but I am your father and you cannot change this fact." Simon said.

Tzuyu laughed and said, "That is the only think I hate about myself Father."

Simon sighed and said, "You are just like your mother, stubborn."

"I am glad that I am like my mother and not like you." Tzuyu said.

Staring at her for quite sometime, Simon walked out of the apartment.

Slamming the door shut, Tzuyu breathed a sigh of relief.

All Tzuyu wanted was a simple life and a happy family but with her background, she knew that this wasn't possible.

Tzuyu was Simon's first born child from his first wife Elsa.

Tzuyu's Mother never liked what Simon did and strongly opposed it.

In her deathbed, Elsa asked Tzuyu not to follow her father's footsteps. She wanted her daughter to live a peaceful life. She wanted her to work hard for her living just like she did before she met Simon.

Few days after her mother died, Simon bought his mistress home along with his youngest daughter, Kiara who was just a few years younger than her.

Tzuyu endured everything until she completed her education.

As soon as she got herself a sustainable job, Tzuyu left home to live a healthy and happy life all by herself. But everything wasn't as easy as she thought. Even after she left home Simon never stopped looking for her. He would often crash into her appointment no matter how many times she changed the locks.

All she wanted was a simple life without any complication. Was it too much to ask?

...

Kim Mansion.

After cheering Uncle Oh for a while, Father Kim said, "Seini don't be sad okay. Everything is going to be okay."

Uncle Oh nodded his head and said, "Sehun's parents left the country leaving that brat all by himself. He is not in stable state of mind right now. Do you think Yeri will be okay with him?"

Father Kim frowned and said, "I am no more associated with that woman."

Uncle Oh sighed and said, "I know that. But don't you think we should go and check on her once? No matter how much you deny it but she is still your daughter."

Father Kim shook his head and said, "I am not interested."

Uncle Oh sighed and nodded his head.

"Okay fine if things go worse, I'll visit her once." Father Kim said before walking towards the kitchen.

After sometime Yeji and Hyunjin came downstairs hand in hand.

"Good morning uncle Oh." Hyunjin said.

"Good morning."Yeji said with a bright smile on her face.

Uncle Oh smiled and said, "Good morning kids."

Walking towards the kitchen, Hyunjin shouted, "Dad whats for breakfast?"

Yeji sat beside Uncle Oh and asked, "What's wrong?"

Uncle Oh shook his head and said, "No everything is okay. Come let's go and eat."

Yeji smiled and nodded her head.

....

Dinning hall.

"I want to throw a banquet after Lisa and Jungkook are back." Father Kim said.

"Banquet for what?" Hyunjin asked.

"For Hyunjin's success and for Lisa and Jungkook as well. I want to invite everyone and have a small gathering." Father Kim said.

Uncle Oh smiled and said, "That sounds great."

"I'll start the preparations from today itself. Yeji you are going to help your soon to be father-in-law right?" Father Kim asked excitedly.

Yeji nodded her head and said, "Sure uncle I will help you."

Clapping his hands together, Father Kim said, "Let me call Lisa and tell her about this."

Getting up from his seat, Hyunjin said, "If you all need my help, feel free to call. I am leaving now."

Yeji also got up from and asked, "Can you drop me off somewhere?"

"Why do you have to ask? You should order him." Uncle Oh said.

Rolling his eyes at uncle Oh, Hyunjin asked, "Where do you wanna go?"

"Daisy is not receiving my call so I want to visit her place." Yeji said.

Hyunjin frowned and said, "No you are not meeting that weird girl."

"Hyunjin." Yeji said.

Hesitating for a while, Hyunjin said, "Okay fine but I'll go with you."

"But-"

"No ifs and buts Yeji. You've to listen to me this time. That area isn't safe." Hyunjin said before grabbing her hand.

"Come lets leave." Hyunjin said.

After they left, Father Kim smiled and said, "They look very good together don't they?"

Uncle Oh nodded and said, "Yes."
