Touch -54-

✘✘✘✘✘✘

I took a deep exhausted sigh after the conversation with Jungkook. I clean my table neatly before I exited the office and when I am finally out. My sight shove to Ms. Pyryt that still there at her proper corner. Putting red lipstick to her lips gracefully like she's used to that color when I only see her wearing just any shade of pink.

I suddenly remember my sister message and fish out my phone. I look for it while walking near Ms. Pyryt.

"Ms. Pyryt" I calmly called her name. She was startled yet manage to look up and meet my gaze.

I took a deep breath before I read my sister message. "Fire that secretary because she is a bitch. Trust me with this Suga."

"What!" Ms. Pyryt stood up slamming  her own table; anger and confusion is in her face.

"I mean, don't go to work starting tomorrow." I response. I should be pitying her but instead I felt nothing. Like she really badly needs to vanish.

"How come you will fire me just because your sister said?" I saw her smirk which surprise me.

"The password is sister. Hope not to see you again." I turn my back and heard her sob. I sigh again and gaze back to her.

"Stop that. You shouldn't played with her heart if you care for your work." My last remark and about to take my back on her again when she suddenly laugh pitchy that sore my hearing. She remove the spectacle and the bangs. Why didn't I realized it's fake?

"Oh, come'on my favourite Author. Taehyung is just a fuck buddy that needs me to get on your nerves in exchange of me being near with you."

Her voice suddenly changes. She fake her voice too. Then I finally decipher her motives. I smile and her cheeks immediately painted with red.

"You know what? I never doubted you and I trusted you since I see you working out the best for me. Yet, you are just one traitor; a mad stalker. Better not set foot her again with your disguise or I'll put you in jail for tailing me around. You will never be able to touch me." I paused. I wanted to say more and I didn't stop myself.

"Pray that my sister will be fine because if not. I'll Sue you and your fuckbuddy. Got that?" I turn my back quickly yet she screamed.

"Why you cannot once treat me a person? That's all I want!" I turned to her again and I furrowed my brows. "I've been tailing you to see a genuine smile, to talk to you like we are friends or even just an admirable fan! I sacrifice a lot. I complice with your Step brother to be this near to you!" She is crying a lot in front of me.

I took a deep breath. "If you really want me to be your friend... Why didn't you understand my situation before? Why did you have to force me to touch you or touch me? You just care for yourself and that's not healthy. I will never ever be friends or more than with a person like you. Better fix all your things and don't come back here or block my way at the street."

I turn my back. Still, I can't let go of her hating me. "Don't worry. All the talks and smile I gave you while you work are all genuine. I give you all those as remembrance. Please, be happy with your life." I said and walk away after.

I'm driving home with so much going on with my head. About Ms. Pyryt, that jerk Taehyung and Kelli.

I'm few minutes away from the apartment when my phone rang and when I see Mr. Davids name on the screen; I pick it up and touch the answer button but my cellphobe black out.

I shook my head and put back the cellphone on the passenger seat. I've been thinking what he needs from me but I told myself that I can call him back when I get home and charge my phone.

The sudden mention of home excites me. It's bit late and I know Ash already there waiting for me. Good thing I passed by the restaurant earlier and bought food for us. Also, Kelli will be at home later. This will be fun. I mumble.

"Wife! Ash! I'm home. I bought food for us!" I  yell when I open the door. She must be here since the living area light was opened. Yet, she didn't response. Maybe asleep in the bedroom.

I walk straight to the kitchen and put down the food there. "Kelli will be here too but she's drunk." My voice saddened. When the food is settled on the dining table. I take my path to the bedroom while taking off my neck tie when my heart throb too fast when the bedroom is empty.

"Ashley?" I yell around the bedroom but my voice only echoes within.

I check the bathroom and I see the floor wet. She went home. But, why she isn't here? Nervousness envelope my system along with my fast beating heart. I next check the closet and my knees shivers and wooble that force me to sat down on the floor.

I was in great shock gaping my mouth. I don't remember having fight with her. We are just fine earlier, we separate ways with our routine kiss especially, we just made love last night.

My senses slowly came back. I stood up quickly and ran outside the bedroom almost tripping on my own feet. I quickly get my phone that I  charge and groan when it only got 5% still, I dial Jin with my hands shivering. In few rings, he answered.

"What is---"

"Ashley! I mean, is she there?" I asked praying that she's there with them.

"No, why? What happen?" His voice became sounds nervous as mine.

"I don't know. She's not here anymore. She take almost all her clothes. We didn't had a fight!" I answered trying not to choke with my own sob.

"Maybe she's with her mom at the dorm. She has no other family here in the city other than her." Jin suggested. I ran out the house speedily and hop in my car. I don't care if  I'm a mess. I just want her to be back home.

"Okay, thanks." I regards. Then hang up the call quickly.

I drive so fast like I am chasing my life that's in the verge of death. I might die but what's important now is to see her. How come she just voyage without saying a thing? I want her to  yell at my face or be angry than to only realize she's gone.

I suddenly remember Kelli. I curse through my mind and tap a message to Jungkook and told him I am not home and just take her at the mansion. Jungkook didn't reply, I hope he recieved my text

Surprisingly, after thirty minutes I reach the dorm. Thanks to my driving skills. I park the car just in front of the dorm and I see other car there and it looks familiar.

"Ashley! Are you there?" I yell calling her name just before I enter the house and what I see are bunch of girls, co-models of Ash. Others smiles at me and wave hands but I didn't response. I came here to get my wife.

"Oh! You're here. I rush coming but Ashley's not here" Jin, welcome me with those words after he get out of one door.

"Her mom. Maybe she knew where she is." Hope still intact though slowly vanishing. I can't see myself without her.

"I already asked her but she said she don't know!" Jin quickly response yet I didn't listen and approach the door he came from earlier.

I heard his footsteps behind me and calling my name yet I didn't stop. I open the door wide and I see a woman sitting down on a single size bed at the corner.

"Where is Ashley? I can't find her! Please, if you know where----"

I stop. Our stares met. Her face is sad. Her eyes were lonely. She didn't move from the bed yet her gazes shouts everything what I need to know. Her face...

"No." I shake my head. Memories flashing back colliding altogether making me suddenly insane. I freed a mocking loud mock.

"How come my mom is here huh! Are you working here too? Where is Ashley's mom! I need to talk to her to get my wife!" I screamed.

I felt hands tap both of my shoulders.
"She is Ashley's mom. What's happening to you?" Jin asked me. Yes, he don't know what my mom looks like.

The woman, who looks like my mom stand up and walk towards me slowly. I took a step backwards. I should be hugging her now. But... I shake my head over and over again. This can't be happening.

"Son. This is Mom, Baby Sugar."

Those that I don't wanna heard from her crush my world into sand pieces. I wooble slowly sitting down on the floor pressing my head trying to process what's happening.

"Wait, what? How come you call him son? So, Ashley and Suga are... Siblings?" I heard Jin said solving the puzzle for me.

Flow of tears escape my eyes. Why my wife? She's the only girl I let in my heart and now I'll learn she's my sister? This is unbelievable. I look up to them and I was surprise to see my mother kneeling in front of me. I try my best to go away shaking my head but she hold my both hands.

"Don't touch me! You are not my mother! Ashley is my wife! She is not... I shouldn't look for you. If I didn't... Where is my wife!" I yell to her face. She was taken aback.

"I-I don't know. " She shake her head. She look up to Jin and I sense him walk away and close the door leaving only the two of us.

"How come you didn't know! You are her mother! You should know where your daughter is!" Suddenly, I smirk. Reminiscing the past, the day she left.

"Alright. How come you'll know where she is. You are expert at not caring to your child and leaving them, right?" Her eyes widened. Still, pain in her eyes are visible. But I cannot buy them for now. All I felt is anger.

She stood up and eyed me intently. I look up to her like a child crying because of punishment that she never have done to me. She loves us but, don't too because she left.

"Alright. Ashley go somewhere I don't know because she finally learned that she married her brother. She... She came here earlier asking me why I am your mom and you came here too to ask me why I am her mom. I don't know where she is. I am looking for her too... Your sister."

The word sister made my mind blank instantly. I hang my head low thinking why all misfortune happens to my life. Why, heavens don't let me be happy? I grew up with my witch stepmother and evil step brother making me had disorder. I leave my sister at the mansion, let my grandmother die without letting her touch me and didn't even get in the hospital. I didn't shake peoples hand, I grow up alone with no other friends aside of Kelli and Jimin.

I isolated myself to everyone. Not trusting anyone, not curing myself because that's me. I cannot change it. I am not changing it.

"Do you know that because of you I had OCD? Because of you I had the most nightmare of my life while I am awake? Because of you, I didn't manage to show how I love my sister and Granny? Should I thank you now because you gave birth to the woman who cure me and made me a better person?" 

She didn't answer yet I felt a hand touch my hand slightly massaging it. I've been waiting for this moment but It's not acceptable for me. I revoke my hands from her and look up.

"Do you know how deep I fell to Ashley? How I planned my life with her and to have plenty of children? Now, she's gone. What am I supposed to do with my life? Answer me!" I screamed with my sob along with my sorrow.

"I am here. I am here. I will come to ---"

"No! You should be there when I need you the most! You shouldn't leave when I plead you not to go away. This is all your fault!" I force myself to stand up and wipe my tears away.

"I only need Ashley! I don't need you. I regret looking for you! You long ago gone as my mother!" My last remark and walk slowly and weakly towards the door yet she speak.

"Ashley, plead me to go back and live with you and Kelli. She asked me not to look for her and make you happy. She let go of me and she only wants you to be happy. Do you want to waste her sacrifice?" Those words stop me from rotating the knob of the door and face her. My face still wet with tears and my eyes swollen out of crying, I took a deep breath so I can speak my words not stuttering.

"I told you. I only needs Ashley." I announced.

"She is your sister for God's sake Suga! Everything is wrong!" Mother exclaimed.

"Everything gets wrong form the time I learned we have same mother. But before that, all the things that have happened between us are all right and feels paradise. I wish I didn't know all this things. I wish I just forgotten about you." My eyes started to water again. She walks slowly to me and cup my cheeks. I felt the warm of her hands. The touch I long ago missed. Yet, just like earlier, I take away her hands off me.

"I said don't touch me!" She take a step backwards and sigh. I only notice now that she is crying. There is something inside myself telling me to hug her because she is the mother I've been searching for ever since she's gone.

"Suga, please understand. Weather you didn't met her before, you still goin to see her since she is my daughter. Everything are destined to happened. I never wanted this for my children. I hurts me to see both of you crying. Yet, please be considerate about the situation. Don't search for her. What will you do when you meet your sister? She can't be your wife anymore."

I chuckled because of her heartful message. So, she wanted me not to do a thing?

"Ashley is not my Sister. Her mother's name is Claire Robertson according to her certificate, mine is Min Eun Ji. See? They are different person." I professed with a laugh. I know my words are insanely unbelievable yet, that's what I wanted to accredit. That our relationship is valid.

I turn my back and open the door. It didn't surprise me to sense her not calling my name or not plead me to go away. She didn't change. She still don't care if we get separated. I will choose to remain not have mother than to loose my wife.

I go home. I look around my apartment and it feels very lonely and dark. Yet, I curve a smile on my face when I imagine her there sitting on the couch hugging the pillow while watching her favourite show. Therefore, fear crawl slowly within myself when she slowly fading.

Anger surrounds me. I throw the pillows everywhere, kicking the couches wile shouting curses and crying like a child. Blaming only one person; my mother.

When I get tired, I stop. I view the area and I realized everything was crooked, dirty and messed. I laugh bitterly, so loud that my voice reach each corner of the apartment.

"Yes, I better clean then everything will be okay again."
