NovelEnglishChapter 14: Will he ever forgive me?
Dan-Han wasn’t aware that he has been smiling as he drove back home. His mind kept flashing back to that girls’s every reaction and expression since she gained consciousness this morning, and also about the note she had left which was currently lying in his breast pocket. He should have guessed she was trying to run away, when he saw her at the door with the look that says ‘i got caught red handed’. He bellowed out an amusing laugh. If he should say something about that girl, he would say she was a prideful, egnimatic and a fearless little girl.
He drove his car into a fine seignorial two-storey manor, which looked completely regal. This was the home he had grown up in. He loved the homely feeling he had here and he has missed having dinner with his family. Pulling up at the front of the house, he stepped out. He looked around the compound and the lovely flowers which were still looking beautiful even at this hour. He sighed deeply before walking towards the door.
“Dad! Mom!” He greeted with a low bow as he walked into the dining room, where his parents were having dinner.
“Dan-Han you are home” His mother said excitedly as she up to give him a hug. She was elated to see him, she has not expected him to visit. If she had known, She’d have made his favorite dishes.
“You are right on time for dinner. Come let’s eat” she said pulling a chair for him with a huge grin in her face. Dan-Han walked towards the seat and sat down just beside her. She started piling up his plate with food as she kept smiling sweetly at him.
Dan-Han looked at her before turning to his father who was watching his wife earnestly trying to please their son. “Dad, how’s your health?” He asked.

“That’s good” Dan-Han said before picking up a spoon to eat.
“I heard you missed your date with chairman Choi’s daughter. What happened?” His father asked staring at him.
“I got caught up” He answered before scooping a spoon full of food in his mouth.
“Caught up? or had an accident?” His mother asked making her husband look at them in surprise.
“What accident?” Father Lee asked in confusion.
“And I wonder whose fault that is?” He asked gazing at his mother in annoyance, not bothering to answer his dad.
“How is that my fault?” Mother asked defensively.
“Who kept calling me non-stop while I was driving?” He asked angrily dropping the spoon in his hand.
“Who fixed a date for me without my consent and told me only an hour before the time?” He asked his mother, who wouldn’t stop interfering with his life, before staring at his father, who has allowed himself to be used this time by his wife.
“And now you got dad involved in your little game. Is my life some game to you?” He got up to leave, ibviously he had lost his appetite. She had made it her sole life purpose to mess up his life.
“Dan-Han, I’m sorry. I did that because I knew you wouldn’t agree to me fixing a date for you” She said with an apologectic look.
“Exactly the reason why you shouldn’t have done that” He said glaring at her.
“And of all people, you really had to choose Choi Mi-Ok? Really? The only girl with princess syndrome” He was fuming with anger.
“But she is a nice girl, and also from a good home. I spoke with her mother to fix another date with her. Can you please go for mother’s sake?” She pleaded with an apologectic look. All she really wanted was for her to son to get a girlfriend or a wife and stop hiding away from the world.

“No son, that’s not true” she replied.
“Then stop” He spat out angrily taking his leave.
“Dan-Han, where are you going? I thought you came over to spend the night?” She asked with a teary voice, walking slowly behind him. She was happy when she saw him coming into the family mansion today. It was a rare occasion for him to come home. He always prefers staying up alone at his place.
“Clearly I’m leaving”
“But why? You rarely come home. Stay for tonight please, I’ve missed you” she said as her eyes welled up in tears.
“I wonder who’s fault that is”
“But I miss you” ????????????????????????????. ????????????
“You should have thought of that before you took courses on knowing how to mess up my life” He said angrily slamming the door on his way out.
“Would he ever forgive me?” She asked her husband who was standing behind her as tears rolled down her face. He wrapped his hands around her to comfort her.
Even he didn’t have the answer to that.
