Chapter 126: Rummy-gummies

While Eun-sun was trying to have fun with her friends and say goodbye to her best friend who had unrequitedly loved her for years, she still couldn’t get the thought of seeing Dan-Han out of her mind. Whenever she remembered how she had seen him and how he had looked at her, and also how he treated and threatened her earlier today her heart would always skip a beat causing her to feel light headed.

She still hasn’t forgotten how he had harrased her and kissed in her dreams. The man was slowly taking up her life. There isn’t a thought going through her mind that he wasn’t present these days. She’s either thinking of a way to pay her debt or a way to avoid him or take care of him as per his mother request. These thoughts were driving her crazy. She frustratedly gulped down the remaining wine in her glass.

“Eun-sun what are you doing? That’s the fourth one, and stop eating that” Hei-Ran reprimanded as she took away the glass from her as well as the bowl of rummy-gummies which she has been munching on. They were both siting on one of the sofas in the room. They had asked Ji-Sang to go mingle with his colleagues while they wait there.

“Give it back” Eun-sun demanded, as she grumpily tried to take back her bowl and glass which has been snatched away.

“No, that’s enough. What’s wrong with you? You’ve been acting weird since we bumped into that room. Did you know any of those men?” Hei-Ran asked as she moved the glass further away from her, she didn’t recognize Eun-sun’s boss back at the room. Her actions made Eun-sun sigh deeply. She would kill her if she wasn’t her friend.

“I’m not acting weird, I’m just freaked out” She said.

“Why?”

.....

“Hei-Ran my nerves are about to blow off, please don’t bother me now. Just give that back, I’ll be fine. And go find some pretty boy, and ask him out to be your boyfriend and leave me alone” Eun-sun hissed and leaned forward to snatch her drink from Hei-Ran. Hei-Ran didn’t argue with her, she let her take back her drink, and sighed herself. She knew the kind of person Eun-sun was. If she was like this, it only meant she’s been bothered in her mind, and will definitely come around. Maybe she really shouldn’t have made her come. She sighed and poured herself a glass too.

“Are you sure you’ll be fine?” Hei-Ran asked once again.

“I’ll be, just go find your man already” Eun-sun told her as she put a rummy-gummy into her mouth. Hei-Ran lolled back and sighed out audibly.

“I don’t want to anymore” She turned her head around to look at the guys around and sighed again, for the upteempth time.

“They are all boys. I don’t think any of them is within my age group. Let me just die single” She hissed frustratedly and poured herself another glass. This wasn’t the plan she had in mind, when she left the house. She had thought of eligible young and matured men coming for the party, but who would have thought that they’ll all be youngsters, who were probably in their early or mid twenties. There’s no way she’d find a date here.

Eun-sun chuckled out at her friend’s expression. She definitely wasn’t the only one having it hard.

“Maybe you can become a sugar momma” Eun-sun teased, making Hei-Ran to smack her arm.

“Get out you evil girl. My mother will drain the poor boy’s and use it to make puree for pizza” She said, making them both laugh.

“If only any of them was like Mr Song, I would definitely throw in my ace card and charm a pretty one. Ah, Eun-sun I’m going to die single. Maybe then you and your kids can come bury me but please make sure it’s not close to my mother’s grave, she might taunt my ghost too” She said dramatically, placing her head on Eun-sun’s shoulder, while Eun-sun laughed.

“Like your psychopathic boss?” Eun-sun cocked a brow at her.

“Yes...i mean no” Hei-Ran said out confusedly. “Not the psychopathic version of him, the manly, and handsome part of him. Mr Song is actually eye catching, but the man is crazy, he’s probably demented and after seeing his sister I think it runs in their family” She said the last part in a whisper. Eun-sun couldn’t help bellow out in laughter.

“Maybe you can try seducing your psychopathic boss, he seems good and your sister in-law already loves you” Eun-sun said teasingly. Hei-Ran snapped her head away from her, and glared at her friend who was obviously looking high, either from too much alcohol or from consuming too many rummy-gummies.

“Eun-sun you’re mad. Seduce Mr Song Jinhai?! That man is crazy, I’d rather be single and die single and have my mother curse me from her grave when she dies, than be with that man. He’s a devil” She said in horror. Eun-sun looked at her and scoffed.

“Wait till you meet Lee Dan-Han. I’m sure he has a personal Lair in hell and your boss is his maleservant” She hissed as she gulped down her drink. Hei-Ran looked at her, she sighed and also followed her lead. Both ladies sunk deep in to the sofa, with Eun-sun monopolizing the rummy-gummies to herself, with Hei-Ran feeding from it.

“We’re both cursed with evil bosses. I think we’ll both die, single and lonely” Hei-Ran declared, but Eun-sun shook her head.

“That will be just you. Because my boss he likes me, and he might to forcefully marry me, I think.” She said sluggishly, while Hei-Ran who was slowly getting tipsy tilted her head towards her with wide eyes and asked, “He does? You mean your tall, handsome, cold faced evil boss likes you?”

“Mmm” Eun-sun nodded her head as she continued to feed on the gummies, same as Hei-Ran.

“Oh, then maybe I’m the only one who will die single afterall” She said with a deflated sigh.

“Don’t worry, with Lee Dan-Han we might just die on the same day, the only difference is, I’ll die in my wedding dress” Eun-sun said, making the two ladies burst out in laughter. Unknowingly to them they were attracting attention to themselves.

“Dude, I think your friends are high on gummies” One of Ji-Sang’s colleagues points out, making the others who were around chuckle amusedly.

Ji-Sang looked at the two ladies chatting and laughing to themselves, while feeding on gummies which have been soaked in rum. He sighed inwardly, before excusing himself to go meet them.

“You stupid fools, stop eating that” He took the bowl from them.

“Hey give that back” Eun-sun growled at him.

“Eun-sun let him be, he’s feeling grumpy because he’s going to leave us. Here I have some” She passed some of the gummies she had in her palm to Eun-sun to placate her.

“I can see you both are high” Ji-Sang noted as he lowered himself on the sofa opposite them, his eyes looking from one to the other.

When exactly did they get there that they were already this wasted? He looked over at Hei-Ran, that one was the lightest weight between both girls yet she had joined Eun-sun who was a drinking champion.

He turned to Eun-sun who was still glaring at him, for taking away her gummies.

“Don’t give me that look, It might worsen your ulcer already. Stupid girl”

“Stop cussing us, you spoilt brat. We’re sad single women with evil bosses who are bent on making our lives miserable” Hei-Ran barked at him, before snuggling closer to Eun-sun.

“I told you, we shouldn’t have come, we should have let him travel to wherever he’s going. What a spoilsport” Eun-sun snorted.

“How much of these did you exactly eat?” Ji-Sang asked as he looked at the almost empty bowl.

“A few” She casually shrugged. Ji-Sang looked at her suspiciously, he didn’t think it was only a few. Her cheeks were too flustered and she was far from her usual self.

Ji-Sang was about to say something when Eun-sun beat him to it, “Please just go away, stop bothering us. We came to your party, now we have to think of ways to escape our boss by morning” Eun-sun sneered.

“Oh oh, you mean escape him right now right?” Hei-Ran asked.

“What do you mean?” Eun-sun asked. She didn’t understand what she meant.

Hei-Ran craned her neck forward, her eyes blinking rapidly like she was struggling to have a clear view of something or rather someone, “There, isn’t that your handsome boss?” Hei-Ran asked pointing her hand towards the man who was standing by the door, with a gloomy look on his face. She had noticed him the moment he walked in, he was craning his head to look around.

“Huh?” Eun-sun turned to look towards the direction Hei-Ran was pointing, and so did Ji-Sang. Eun-sun felt her heart fall down into her stomach when she saw who Hei-Ran was pointing to. Her jaw dropped to the ground when she caught sight of Dan-Han standing in the room.

“Please kill me” Eun-sun cried out. “I’m dead, what should I do?” She looked at Hei-Ran.

“Maybe you should hide” Hei-Ran drunkily suggested.

“Where?” She asked almost in tears.

“Over there” Hei-Ran pointed towards the back of one sofa not to far away from them.

“I don’t think you should bother, because he’s looking at you” Ji-Sang told them, even though he had no clear what was going on.
