My Instant Marriage

That following day, Young-soo and Eunbi went to meet his parent at their home. As the couple reached Mr. and Mrs. Lee welcomed them with an excitements, and Mrs. Lee took them to Young-soo’s room. Usually Young-soo and his mother used to have their food in his room whenever he returns back from the business trips. However, this time two more members are joining them and it’s none other than Mr. Lee and Eunbi.

By looking at the table arrangement for lunch, Young-soo hugged his mother, "Thank you mom for always understanding me." Mrs. Lee hugged him back, "it’s ok my dear son come lets us have our lunch before it turns cold."

They all sat down and started to have their lunch while chatting. Eunbi was curious to know the real reason of why Young-soo was having food in his room instead at the dining room. Mrs. Lee asked Young-soo, "Did you saw the pictures of your wedding album?" Eunbi widens her eyes and Young-soo looked at her, she forced a smile on his face and said, "Yes, mom all the pictures came out very well, and especially Eunbi looks so good in most of pictures with her baby smile."

All the credit goes to the photographer, Mr. Lee commented.

"Yes you are right we should book the same photographer for Eunbi’s baby shower too," Mrs. Lee, gave a reply to Mr. Lee’s comment.

All of a sudden Eunbi coughed while having the food for the Mrs. Lee’s comment. Young-soo quickly patted her back gently and once her cough stops, he took a glass of water and held it next to her mouth, "drink it."

"Did I say anything wrong?" Mrs. Lee asked.

"No, mom you haven’t but you have mentioned it in a wrong timing. To tell you the truth we are not planning to have a baby until she graduates her master’s degree." Young-soo encircled his arm around Eunbi’s shoulder, "until then please stop teasing my wife, do you understood mom."

"Are you alright?" Young-soo asked her. Eunbi nodded her head.

"Omo! Omo. I love you guys, you two are like love birds to me, and it’s just a treat for the eyes of the parents to see their children taking care of their better half in front of the elders," Mrs. Lee commented.

After the lunch Mr. and Mrs. Lee went downstairs and left the couple alone in the room.

Both Eunbi and Young-soo stood at the each corner of the room; Young-soo could sense that she was feeling so awkward to stay along with him in a room. He cleared his throat to draw her attention, "I’m going to the study room to read some books, if you would like to take some nap you may use my bed." He said and went to the study room.

Eunbi sat down on the couch thinks that how to find out about his trauma and also about his first love. Her thoughts were distracted as the smart-phone vibrated on the table. She went near to the table to see whose phone was that, as she saw its Young-soo’s smart-phone she took that from the table and prayed to God that the phone’s screen should not be locked with any of the security codes, but to her dismay it was locked with the fingerprint reader. She kept back the phone on the table, opened the door of the modern wooden classic cupboard, and searched whether he has kept any of his old diaries, slam books, and old cell phones in each racks of the cupboard. At the top most rack there was a vintage wooden large size treasure chest box, Eunbi was curious to know what type of things were lying inside the box. She quickly took one of the dining chair placed it in front of the cupboard, stood up on the chair took the treasure box carefully from the rack, get down from the chair and placed the chest box on the bed. She unlocked the lock of the box, and as she was about to open it unexpectedly Young-soo entered the room. She turned her head and looked at him with a startle expression on her face.

Young-soo gave her a deadly look, "what the hell are you doing? Who gave you the permission to take out that box from the cupboard?" He raged at her in a low deep voice.

She gets down from the bed, looked at the floor and said, "I’m sorry."

"I’m forgiving you this time, and don’t ever dare to touch it again without my permission, keep that in your mind, and behave yourself." He warned her with rage.

Eunbi was frightened with the way he warned her with rage. She swallowed the lump nervously from her throat, "I’m sorry again to invade your personal things without your permission."

He pressed his lips together in annoyance, "Now, stop apologizing to me, and get out of my room I wanted to be alone for a while."

His temper didn’t reduce a bit he sounded harsh, she was scared to utter a word so she just walked out of the room and went to the study room. She walked from one end to the other end of the in the study room by muttering, damn, if he would haven’t come in I would have seen what was inside that chest box, but he ruined everything by entering into the room at the wrong timing. I missed the right chance and I’m damn sure that there are some important things were hidden inside that chest-box.

In his room, Young-soo was seemed so angry with her, arrived, to invade my personal things without my permission, how dare was she to do such things, he murmured with anger. No one has invaded his personal things before not even his parents and that’s the reason he warned Eunbi with rage. He opened the wooden chest-box, looked at the things in the chest-box. He took out the things one by one out from the box, as he took a photo of him with a girl some of the old sweet memories with that girl flashed in his mind- how he tried to held her hand with awkwardness for the first time while walking on the street, his first date with her in the cinema theater, his first kiss with her in the swimming pool, and her tender smile. Then he murmured by looking at the picture, the reason I forced Eunbi to marry me it’s only because of you, Hye-jin, I love you Hye-jin, I love you a lot, and at the same time I miss you a lot too. He kept that photo in the chest-box, closed it, and carefully placed it back in the upper most rack of the cupboard. action

After a few minutes he realized that he sounded bit harsh to Eunbi. Therefore, he went to the study room with the guess that she must me in there. He opened the door, entered in; as he saw her she was sleeping on the arm chair he slowly closed the door, and sat down at the arm chair which was opposite to her. He gazed at her with a smile, "thank you so much for marring me," he muttered without taking his eyes of her and in a few minutes he also fell asleep in the armchair.

A while later both Eunbi and Young-soo woke-up when they hear the knock on the door, their eyes met and they stared at each other. Eunbi wondered when did he come in. She sat properly and roughly combed her hair with her fingers. Mrs. Lee came in, "I’m sorry to wake you up, lovebirds. I come to inform you guys to get ready to leave because it’s already 5 pm now."

Young-soo glanced at his wrist watch, "oh, I couldn’t believe that now the time is 5 pm, time flies really fast. We’ll go to my room, freshen up, and get ready to leave, mom." He said and gets down from the arm chair, stepped near to Eunbi and gave her his hand. She grabbed his hand with some hesitation and they walked to his room. When they reach into his room, he released her hand from his hold, "I just asked your hand to satisfy my mom that we are doing good together, other than that I don’t have any other intension, don’t take it in a wrong sense. You may use the bathroom first I’ll wait here," he said and sat down on the sofa in the room.

She went into the bathroom quickly refreshes herself, and once she finishes doing her business in the bathroom, she asked Young-soo to use the bathroom. Once he went into the bathroom she fixed her make-up over her face and as she about pulls her hair up into a high ponytail Young-soo came out of the bathroom, and he was fascinated to see her gathering her hair high and tie it with an elastic hair band into a high ponytail. He swallowed the lump in his throat, get near to her, and stood behind her. Eunbi was shaken to see him behind her on the mirror. Her heart leaped as he leaned forward, her eyes are widened, she curls her fists into balls, and ready to turn over to give him a hard punch over his abdomen. However, she uncurled her fists as he picked up the hair brush from the dressing table and brushes his hair.

Once he combed his hair, he asked her, "Are you ready, shall we leave?"

She nodded her head, packed her make-up items in her handbag, and went downstairs with him. Mrs. Lee hugged the couple together and advised them, "suppose if you guys get into an argument any one of you should try to be calm, and get compromise before the situation gets worse, keep this in your mind and try to live happily forever. My blessing will always there for you my children."

Both Eunbi and Young-soo nodded their head with a smile. Before they gets into the car Young-soo asked his mom to take care of her health and call him if they needed any help from him at any time without any kind of hesitation. Then they get into the car and the chauffeur drove them to the airport.
