Sister, Back-off From MY MAN

Then later the story didn't show much on the romance angle as the boy playing Romeo was still a thirteen-year-old and the girl playing Juliet was a twelve-year-old.

The school didn't want to raise a scandal so romance was very less in this play keeping their audience in mind.

The scene on stage then shifted to a small fight that takes place between multiple characters where Romeo accidentally kills Juliet's cousin.

"You know what, this killing was added just to rotten the relationship between Romeo and Juliet's families and it was shown as an accidental murder only to keep Romeo's character clean" Kiaraa scoffed after sharing her opinion with Song Ji Hun.

Song Ji Hun was sitting at the first seat of this row, Kiaraa in the second one and the third seat was empty as Song Ji Hwan, who occupied it left.

Therefore, no one else in the audience was disturbed by these two as they were considerate enough to talk in whispers.

"As if it is a thumb rule that every lead character has to be a nice and perfect person. Why can't the lead be someone with flaws? After all normal people have so many flaws in them" Song Ji Hun agreed with her.

Kiaraa, turned to look at him, the corner of her lip was raised in a slight smile. She kept looking at him like that.

Sensing her gaze on him, Song Ji Hun's attention shifted from the play to the girl sitting next to him.

"What?" he asked as she kept smiling at him, not saying a word.

"You are not what I thought" she declared.

Song Ji Hun was not sure she was praising him or taunting him.

"What did you think I was?" he counter questioned.

Kiaraa turned back to look at the play, "How does it even matter?" she still didn't lose that faint smile on her face.

Song Ji Hun was not sure how to feel about it as he was dying to know what she thought of him and what she is thinking right now.

If he had some magical powers, he would love to enter her mind and explore it or at least read her thoughts.

Currently, the scene of Romeo repenting killing Juliet's cousin was going on and Ian was actually doing a great job at it.

"I had no idea Ian is such an amazing actor" Kiaraa whispered to Song Ji Hun.

Song Ji Hun was not sure why, but he didn't like the way she praised Ian. 

He turned to look at her and saw the admiration in her eyes towards Ian's acting.

For the first time, at that moment, Song Ji Hun regretted rejecting the role of Romeo, which was offered to him first.

'She would have been praising me if I was on the stage right now' he thought unknown to him that if he would have played Romeo, Kiaraa wouldn't even have wasted her time sitting through this play.

Later, there was another Romeo and Juliet's scene going on when Song Ji Hun whispered, "They two look good together, right?"

He was not the kind of person to say something like this but he wished to know what Kiaraa thinks of Ian.

"Hmm, they do. Ian is so handsome he will look good together with any girl" she added upsetting Song Ji Hun.

"But his clothes are funny" Song Ji Hun suddenly said trying to make Ian look lower in her eyes.

"That I agree" Kiaraa looked at Song Ji Hun and laughed as Ian was dressed in 16th century Italian clothes.

At that exact moment, Ian was enacting a scene looking at the audience, narrating his thoughts as Romeo, just then the spotlight, which was moving across the audience passed over Kiaraa and Song Ji Hun and Ian's gaze fell on them.

What he witnessed was Kiaraa and Song Ji Hun smiling at each other and this made him froze on his spot, as he went blank and forgot his next dialogue.

In thirteen years of his life, he never saw Kiaraa and Song Ji Hun interact with each other and therefore the scene in front of him was no less than a shock.

He believed their interaction was a bad omen as he didn't like what he saw.

The girl playing Juliet was standing there as a statue as Ian was supposed to share his feelings and thoughts with the audience before they continue the scene but Ian suddenly stopped speaking.

Everyone in the audience kept wondering why is he not talking.

Kiaraa and Song Ji Hun too looked at the stage after realizing the dialogues suddenly stopped and there was a weird kind of silence around them.

When Kiaraa and Ian's gazes met, he realized he was in the middle of the play and immediately he acted like he went speechless between his thoughts due to the pain and shock Romeo is going through.

Ian continued saying his next lines, handling the situation well as the audience believed the pause that happened was a part of the play.

The next scenes played out well and it was finally the climax scene where a misunderstanding about Juliet's death leads to Romeo committing suicide.

"What a weird misunderstanding. He didn't even wait for a few more hours before killing himself. If he did, the story would have been so different" Kiaraa muttered to Song Ji Hun as she couldn't help but feel bad seeing this tragical ending.

"It is a work of fiction; it is not real" Song Ji Hun reminded her.

"Hmm but still if he would have waited a bit longer, their lives would have been different" Kiaraa muttered making Song Ji Hun turn to look at her.

"I will wait, no matter how long it takes" the words suddenly came out of his mouth even before he could stop them.. He was not sure what happened at that moment and what triggered him but he felt like saying these words.
