President's Substitute Wife

It took me a long time to hear Sean’s voice, “my books and papers are here. I’ll take them back.”

“Oh...”

His things were here.

I was in a bad mood before and then I was busy working so I forgot about it.

I didn’t open the door, “well, President Jessop, wait a minute. I’ll help you pack up.”

“I want to go in.”

I heard Sean.

Actually, I was hesitating. But I thought although we had divorced, he just came to get things.

We had nothing to do with each other after he got them.

I felt a chill when I opened the door.

Sean stood at the door. He was wearing a gray black coat and there were many snowflakes on his shoulders and head.

I was a little surprised. Didn’t he drive straight to the underground garage? Why was he so cold and there were snow on him?

Was he coming from outside?

But I didn’t want to care about him. When I let him in, I turned around and said, “President Jessop, wait a minute. I’ll help you pack up.”

He didn’t have many things. Just a paper bag could hold them.

I took his books and papers off the bookshelf in the living room. I handed him the paper bag and said politely, “President Jessop, everything is here. You see if there is any omission.”

Sean took the bag and didn’t look at it.

He stared at me and gave a wry smile. “It looks like you’re doing well after the divorce.”

“Yes, I had a good time.”

I pretended to be calm.

I was having a bad time. I felt bad, but I couldn’t tell him.

Sean nodded. “Okay.”

I thought his eyes were a little confused but I didn’t think much about it.

I took Sean to the door and said, “goodbye.”

I closed the door.

Sean raised his arm and held me in his arms. His thin lips were steaming, “I miss you. Don’t go. Don’t leave me.”

His voice was full of attachment.

My heart was pounding. But I was worried about him and could only pat him on
