Chapter Four 

I knew I would wake up alone today again, it is always like I've left behind everytime. I flutter my eyes open to find an empty space on the right side of the bed.

Why does my life feel so empty?

I got down the bed sighing, this is the reason I never wanted to get married never wanted to leave my father. What is the use of getting married? I could have just stayed with my father, it felt like I had someone beside me but now?

I'm all alone in the house I've nothing to do here. There is no work here too , the maid does all the work. I am hating every day covered with loneliness and depression. Chanyeol doesn't even call me nor talk to me, we never have lunch together.

I climbed down the stairs heading towards the kitchen.

"Good morning Mrs. Park" she wished me.

"Good morning Ellis.. " I sat on the dining chair sighing.

I stare at the locked door which Chanyeol warned me not to open. But this made me much more curious to know what's inside the room. I've tried asking him when he comes back from work, what is in that room, but he just builds up excuses that 'its a Storeroom and there is lots of dust. Better you don't check it'.

But who carries a Storeroom's key? He carries it always with him while he heads to work. I know I rarely see him go off to work, but I've noticed him carrying it always with him. I think he just wants me not to open it.

The clock struck 'nine' and the door opens revealing the tall man. He did not come inside but stood by the door way.

"Chaeyoung, get ready . We'll have dinner out today." He said keeping his gaze on his phone. "But fast, you know it's late."

My lips crept into a smile, because this happened like first in my life history. Chanyeol and me are going out dining together?Alone ?

I ran upstairs keeping that smile on my face. I was quick to pull off a black gown enhancing my body curves and left my golden flocks swept into one side.

I'm just too happy that atlast me and him will have time together.

I dressed myself enough to impress him, I just don't know. I'm wanting his attention a lot. I'm not keeping my words what I said on the first day. But he is.

I climbed down the stairs finding him seated on the couch eyes fixed on the phone. He inverted his gaze towards me , rising himself from the couch.

Hoping he would compliment my look today I waited for his magical words, but instead he said " you are going to wear this? It's.. it's okay let's leave it's late.." with annoyed face.

It felt My heart was pricked with his words , which wounded deep.

Is it too bad?

But , I thought to myself not to upset myself.

He is just tired..

It was almost well ..silent in the car. I nor him talked. He drove the car while I look away from him outside the car. Ego won.

It was a fancy five star hotel and the golden lights outside lit up my mood.

"Come soon.. " he said walking fast ahead of me.

I can't walk fast in heels.. sorry.

We walked towards one of the table where already many men and women were seated .

"Oh, atlast he is here.. Good to see you Mr.Park" one of the man shook his hand with Channie.

"This is my wife, Park Chaeyoung. " He introduced me to the remaining men and women seated, while I forced a smile at them.

My smile, and expectations faded....

This is just a business meeting between his clients. I thought atleast only we were the one for a romantic dinner.

I was seated between two woman who talked about the most expensive things they owned. You know rich people... While I seated simply forcing smiles.

I just want to get out of here.

Chanyeol was talking to the men and he never looked nor talked to me. I know it's a business case but why am I here?

The car ride was again silent. Nothing between us, just I got the lables 'wife' . We have no feelings between each other.

•••

I slammed the car door while I walk ahead of him towards the house, fighting over my tears.

I sat on the couch still fighting over my tears.

I hate my life!

"What the heck is wrong with you?!" He yelled at me walking towards me.

"What do you mean?!"

"I saw you during the meeting. You looked sad and depressed. F*CK this s**t. Don't you know how to behave in a business meeting? The clients asked me if we had a fight!" He yelled at me again stressing the curse word.

"Now we are having a fight! Why the heck did you take me with you if it was a business meeting? I thought you had a little concerned about our relationship. When was the last time you took me to any date?! " I too yelled , but this time my tears flowed.

"I don't f*cking care! Just get lost! " He yelled which basically made my heart explode.

I ran towards my room locking it. I threw myself into the bed sobbing.

I just hate my life..

After a few minutes I peeped through the door hole.

Chanyeol locked himself up in the 'Storeroom'

He told it was dusty.. is he going to sleep in the dust? 

Is he hiding something I don't know?
