While Mrs. Song had her hands busy dealing with the Police, Victoria sat opposite to Suho at a cafe. The cafe was just three blocks away from the Police Station. Since Suho was only there in Beijing to assist Lay in uncovering the secrets of Qi Wu's Mafia. He wanted to know if Qi Wu had any connections with Sulli's father and the politicians who engaged in dirty business.
But not now.
Not until he hears something from Victoria Song.
It would be too stupid if he's going to ask her how her life has been. It was hard, for sure. It was difficult to hide and run away. Fate just played on her.
"I didn't expect that.", He broke his silence.
Victoria didn't look straight at his eyes. She took a sip of her iced coffee. "I didn't expect that, either."
"Sorry, Victoria. It was just..."
"Your job. I understand. I knew this day would come. But I promise you.... I never participated in that Mafia."
He nodded his head. "Do you know Choi Sulli?"
She looked at him."Yeah. More than you know her. She's my sister from another family. We go to the same school."
"Park Chanyeol?"
"Yeah. Sulli and Chanyeol are lovers. But I know Chanyeol well, too."
"He's my cousin."
Victoria looked at the view outside. "Too many revelations in one day", she thought. The sky was turning gray. It didn't rain. But the clouds gathered together. She turned her focus back to Suho. She wanted to ask how he has been but she knew that Suho's fine. He's perfectly fine. In fact, Krystal has shared thousands of stories about him.
"I think you've improved, Suho. Even my friend Krystal is head over heels in love with you.", She told him.
He chuckled. "So, you're friends with her."
She noticed how cheerful Suho became when she mentioned Krystal's name. "I shouldn't have left him.", She thought.
Suho noticed the look on her face. "Victoria, tell me... Is it why you broke up with me? This whole mafia thing?"
Tears rolled on her face. She buried her face under her palms. Suho felt pain on his chest. The two started crying hard. The prints of the past wouldn't let them go that easily.
"I-I-I'm sorry, Suho. I couldn't hold it back anymore.", She shook her head. "Sulli was brave enough to defend Chanyeol. But I was a coward. Letting go of my first love was difficult. Moving on was much difficult. I'm so sorry, Suho. I'm a big mistake to you."
He wiped his tears and tried to be strong. "You would never be a mistake to me, Victoria. If only you knew how much I value you despite all the girls I dated after you. I still thought of you. You're still important to me. I love you. It doesn't matter where you're from, who your parents are, what you do...I'm still here... loving you each day."
"How about Krystal? What will she feel about us? Suho, my best friend is in love with you."
"But I choose you.", He insisted.
