Chapter 98: Thank you for showing me
Chapter 98: Thank you for showing me
He peers at the broken woman near his feet. She has stopped crying long ago. She isn't even moving. Looking at her in this state is heart numbing. In a rage, he has done something that can't ever be changed back.
"If you want to press charges against me, do it." He speaks to her coldly, "I will gladly go to the prison. I don't regret doing this to you."
He hears her chortle. She sits up and looks up at him with a dark smile. "Thank you for showing me what kind of man you are."
"You have turned me into this." He clenches his fists. "If you hadn't done..."
"If I had been a little sane, I wouldn't have come to keep my promise to you." She stares down at her hands with her empty eyes. "I promise you this. No matter what happens in the future, whether you die or live, whether you beg me on your knees, whether you cry for me to come back, whether you remember or not, I will never ever forgive you for doing this to me, Kang Si An. You won't be able to see me ever again even in the afterlife."
Kang Si An lets out a laugh. "Why would I want to see a person like you?"
She doesn't answer him. Kang Si An feels heavy in his chest. What has he done to a woman? When did he become this kind of man who would hurt a woman? It's hard to look at her. She reminds him of his monstrous side. It's difficult to breathe. He leaves her house quickly.
After taking a shower, he decides to go to Ki Mi Ran. He glances at the closed door of her apartment. He wonders if he should check on her. He has hurt her. She hurt his Ki Mi Ran. Pained, he leaves the corridor.
'You will regret doing this to me.'
Yes, he is already regretting. He won't ever tell her that. What happened to him back then? How would he fix it with Ki Mi Ran? She's hurt because of him.
He stands outside the ward with a complicated expression.
"Mi Ran, you already had an abortion. Then, why did you lie to him?" He hears her friend asking her.
"That girl was acting all high and mighty. I had to teach a lesson to her." Ki Mi Ran says, "If I told him that I wanted to abort the child, my image would have been ruined. Tell me, how could I marry him at this age? We are so young. This is an important time in our careers. Marrying him and having a child would destroy my life. He should have the decency to understand this right."
"If you don't want to marry him, you should break up with him."
"Dating him is advantageous to my career. It's only natural that he is by my side when all the women in the nation want him. I will dump him when he is no longer useful."
Kang Si An could hear a pitiful voice in his head. 'Please believe me once. I beg you. Don't do this to me. It hurts. Kang Si An, please.'
He clutches his chest, unable to breathe. He drops down on his knees. What has he done? That woman did nothing wrong. He doesn't seem to have any strength to get up. He's disgusted by himself.
"Kang Si An?" Ki Mi Ran's friend finds him kneeling in front of the door with a grim pale face. She's frightened. Did he hear everything? She acts as if nothing happened. "Ki Mi Ran is inside. Did you come to see her?"
"Yes." He stands up and walks into the ward. For the first time in his life, he notices how repulsive she is. He is even more repulsive than her. He was easily manipulated by this girl and ended up committing an unforgivable sin. "Ki Mi Ran."
Ki Mi Ran looks at him with an aggrieved face. There is no flaw. Anyone who saw her would believe that she has been wronged excessively. If Kang Si An didn't hear what he heard a little while ago, he would have blindly believed that she's suffering.
"Do you know what I did because of you?" He walks to her side. Then, can he blame her? She might have manipulated him, but it was his hands and body that wronged that woman.
"Kang Si An." Ki Mi Ran feels nervous under his gaze. "What happened to you?"
"If you didn't want the child, you could have told me once. I would have accepted your decision without any complaints. If you didn't want to get married, I would not have forced you." At this moment, he hates himself the most. "You knew that, right?"
"I-I..." She shifts away from him, afraid that he might hurt her. "I didn't know."
"You didn't?" Kang Si An bursts into laughter. His cold laugh turns her blood cold. He coils his fingers around her neck. "Then, were you afraid to tell me because you expected me to do this?"
He didn't put pressure. She starts screaming in fear. Standing at the door, her friend starts shouting for help. He lets go of her. He declares with a somber voice, "Ki Mi Ran, you will pay for your crimes."
She gulps down. She watches him leave with hurried steps. The doctors and the guards arrive. They check on her. But, there is nothing wrong with her.
In the car, Kang Si An shakes in anger and agony. He is angry at herself. Kwon Kyuri's voices keep repeating in his mind. She told him that she would never forgive him. He doesn't know how to go to her and ask for forgiveness. He doesn't deserve it. He has to see her. He will do everything to get her to forgive him. He left her in such a sorry state. He hurt her without any mercy.
He starts the car and drives toward the apartment. If she asks him to kill himself, he will do it. Her empty eyes keep haunting him. He needs to get to her as soon as possible.
Speeding, Kang Si An takes a wrong turn in a hurry and doesn't see his death coming toward him. The truck slams against his car, turning into something unrecognizable. The blood seeps out of his broken body, spreading out on the concrete. His eyes flutter once before he whispers her name that was unfamiliar to him once.
