"Monica, soon I'll be back to where I came from. I'm sorry if I lied to you all this time, I came just for Stephen's sake"
"I don't understand what you mean? if you're not him, so where is he?"
"Obviously years ago he died in an accident, and before he breathed his last he asked me to save his company and his uncle always wanted to take his position, so I did it for her"
"Me..died? is he dead? the guy in my class is gone? it's not funny Stephen, your story isn't funny at all" Monica said with glassy eyes
"Before I leave I just want you to know, I'm not him, and the one you love is gone, look for your life and forget all your feelings" Stephen said, rising from his seat
"Step..no...so who are you really?" ask Monica
"I'm me, you don't need to know who I am anymore, just know if I'm not him"
"Did Cherry know?"
"He knows, and I thank you"
"Why thank me?"
"Cherry said if you've helped her and been kind to her, you're the first person she's known in town, as her husband I want to thank you"
"Su.husband?"
"Me and Cherry were married in Germany, she was my legal wife" replied Stephen who then stepped away from the flower shop
Monica who heard all of Stephen's words made herself feel depressed and like in a lightning strike, the man she loved all this time was another man and not the one she used to be in class with, he can only be pensive while looking at the original photo of Stephen
"You rejected me in high school, and didn't expect you to leave when you were young, the Stephen I've loved so far was someone else, all this time he's been cold with me, I thought he was you, even if you rejected me but you're still nice and not cold to me, all this time I thought you were cold to me for wanting to keep your distance from me, but it turns out that she wasn't you, so what should I do? my feelings of love for her have been lingering for so long" Monica murmured with tears
"In a day I get two painful news, the Stephen I loved was dead, and the Stephen I've loved all along is married, even though he's not the real Stephen but why is my heart still hurting when I already know he's someone else" inner Monica
Chin Residence
That night Cherry was sitting on her bed remembering what she had seen on the tape, and Monica's sadness and guilt made her feel unbearable
"The recording makes it clear that Monica loves Stephen very much, even though she knows that Stephen is a different person I'm sure she will still love Stephen, love can not be lost just like the feeling has been so long, I also just know if Stephen is Christian Han but I can not stop loving him, too, so the point is whoever he is the feeling of love is still not going away" inner Cherry
"We're married but I still haven't done my duty as a wife. Stephen was so relented to me, if other men would definitely not accept rejection" Cherry said
Clamps
"Cherry" Stephen's new voice calls into the room
"Stephen"
"What's wrong with you Cherry? why is your face pale? are you having a fever?" stephen asked, approaching Cherry and sitting opposite her
"No, I'm fine"
"Why are you surprised to see me? did you think I'd swallow you alive?" ask Stephen in a joking manner
"No, I'm just wondering what about brother's reaction? was he so sad after knowing?"
"I'm suddenly embarrassed to face him" inner Cherry
"Yes, but this is the fact he must accept, I'm sure after this he will definitely forget all his feelings for me, and I won't be burdened by this matter either after I say it all" stephen answered with a smile
"You're wrong Stephen, you're going to love you even if you know you're not the real Stephen, just like me" Cherry said
"Cherry, what's wrong with you? why are you daydreaming? is there a problem?" stephen asked, watching the dreamy Cherry
"Cherry, is that really what you're thinking?"stephen asked, watching his wife
"Yes"
"Call my name"
"Huh?"
"I want to hear you call my real name"
"Christianz"
"Call again"
"Christian, what's wrong with you?"
"Remember, from this moment on call this name, I love to hear it" Christian said with a smile and kissed Cherry on the lips
"Have you escaped Stephen's name?" ask Cherry by letting go of her kiss
"True, therefore my wife should call me Christian and not Stephen anymore, because Stephen is another man so don't mention another man's name in front of your husband" christian answered while blowing his wife's face
"Yes I know" Cherry replied with an amused smile
Christian continues the kiss with his wife for a while, and a moment later Christian releases the kiss
"Cherry, can I take it from you?" ask Christian who is noisy in the ears
"Take what?" ask Cherry who doesn't understand
"Yourself, will you let me do it tonight?" christian asked by kissing his wife's face
"Ha.i.it.." replied Cherry who was embarrassed and felt afraid.
"You're not ready yet? if not then I won't force you" Christian said by kissing his lips
"Mom.no, I'm just afraid" Cherry replied worriedly
"Don't be afraid, I'll do it slowly, it's also my first time"
"Huh..first for you?" ask Cherry in surprise
"Why don't you believe it?" ask Christian with a smile
"You've been 40 years you've never done it, are you kidding me?"
"My age is 40, but that doesn't mean I ever did, like I said you were the first woman to come into my life, have you forgotten?"
"I remember, it's just that in this world where there are men who don't touch women at all" Cherry said in disbelief
"Other men I don't know, but all this time did you know what was important to me?"
"Not knowing"
"I used to put my money and my business first, so romance wasn't part of my life, I am very ambitious to have the strongest network so that no one can fight me and I succeed" Christian explained with a smile
"Didn't you succeed but why didn't you still get married at the time?"
"Because there is no woman who can make me want to marry her, and in the end you appear before me" Christian replied by tucking Cherry in the forehead
