My grandson is in love. He have never been this way. He asked me who my first love was. My secretary managed to find out who Seung Gi is in love with. They tell me he is in love with the singer Chae Yeon, and asked me to just watch the show Xman. The other time when I was ill, I asked Seung Gi if he is in love. The boy didn’t deny. He never lies to me, he said he is in love with his Nuna, and he even begged me to not hurt her. Why would he think I would hurt her? I must meet this girl Chae Yeon. She is the first reason my grandson begged me for something.
After some research by the secretaries, I realized why he was so afraid that I will come in between them. The age difference is just one reason. She comes from a well to do family, but it is still a far gap when compared to us. I tried to arrange a meeting with this lady, but her company seems to think I’m some bad person. They know who I am, they were very polite, but I never got the chance to see her. Its okay actually, I’m just curious. They said her name used to be Jin Suk. Lee Jin Suk. My first love’s name was also Lee Jin suk. Back then, I was not allowed to be with her. I was unable to protect her. Her family died in the war. I wonder if they have any similarities.
Seung Gi came to visit me in office, he never liked stepping into the company.
“Grandpa, why did you want to see Chae Yeon shi” he asked me
“I wanted to see what kind of woman is capable of seducing my boy” I answered light heartedly
“She did not seduce me, why can’t everyone just leave us alone!” Seung Gi shouted, and broke down in tears.
My grandson, always so strong and brave, is now crying like a child because of a woman. His tears reminded me of myself, the young me who failed to protect the Jin suk I loved so deeply.
“Seung Gi, a man does not tear, If you love this nuna so much, all the more you have to be strong, she needs a real man, not a wimp like you.”
I promised my grandson that I will support him in whatever he does, and I will not come in between him and Chae Yeon Shi
A week later, I did manage to see Lee Chae Yeon. When I saw her, she reminded me of that woman I loved, not because of the name, but a feeling that was difficult to explain. She seemed shocked when she recognized who I was, but remained very formal with me.
“Uncle Lee must be a very busy man, Its my honour to be able to dine with you” She poured me a cup of wine
“Would you like a cup as well?” Seung Gi told me she likes wine. Another similarity to my Jin suk.
“I better not, I drove here today” She rejected my offer.
“You know Seung Gi is my only grandson, whatever I have will be his one day. His woman will have nothing to worry about”
“Seung Gi is a fortunate boy” She said and gave me a smile
“I know he likes you a lot. What are your thoughts on that?” I went straight into the question.
“Uncle Lee, I can understand why you would be worried. I like him, but I will keep it to a Nuna loving a dongseng.” She said firmly
“You said love. Do you love him?” I was not trying to break them up, I think she has mistaken my intentions
“We are not together” she interrupted. This girl is avoiding the question.
“Whatever it is, my purpose today was to see what kind of woman is capable of captivating my grandson. My Seung Gi is a smart boy and I trust him. I hope I can get to see you again, and you would be more casual then”
She is a smart woman, but just like Park said, they are not dating and nothing will probably turn out between them. She is just an obsession that Seung gi has.
Chae Yeon:
I didn’t return the phone to Seung gi when I got back to Seoul. I ended my last episode of Xman, while he started a whole string of promotion for his album. I didn’t turn up for the meeting he arranged. The next day, he sent me his new album titled “When a man loves a woman”
“To my Yeonie: You know you mean a lot to me, and I know you are not ready for me. It is okay, I will wait for you no matter how long it will take. This album, is my love for you. Whenever you are ready, let me know. I am prepared to live and protect you my whole life. I just need one chance.
I never called him, neither did I reply his messages. I switched on that phone, and will receive messages that he sends everyday. I know I should forget him, but I have no discipline to try to forget him. One day, he will stop showing interest in me. Maybe then I will forget him.
I agreed to make a trip to New York for a performance. It will be a good break. I can visit my friends there, and it will be a good time away from Seung gi.
After the performance in New York , we flew to the west coast. I was supposed to go home from there, but I decided to drive to Seattle to visit an old friend on my own. Kim wanted to follow me but I managed to convince him to go home and celebrate his son’s birthday. There, I left my manager and assistants and my entire luggage. Holding my passport, license and credit card, I rented a car and decided to surprise my ex-classmate in Seattle.
The car in front of me suddenly braked. I followed too, but the car behind me came right smack onto my back. I felt the car turn and hit something. My head hurt so badly, I could not see anything. All I saw was the phone Seung gi gave me.
