Young-soo woke up with a headache and looked at the digital clock in the room it reads 10:45 am. He quickly get down from the bed, took his bath towel from the wardrobe hung it around his neck, walked out of his room and shouted, "Eunbi, where are you, stupid?"
Eunbi comes out of the other room as he called her with an annoyance. She gazed at him questioningly.
"What were you doing inside the room without waking me up early in the morning? If I see you again lock yourself inside the room when I’m in the house I’ll screw off that room door." He yelled out with rage.
She just stood there in silence not liking to reply him.
"Open your mouth and reply me for God sake, stupid."
But she didn’t say anything, she just rolled her eyes in annoyance. freew(e)bnove(l)
Young-soo was irritated with her behavior. "It’s a waste of time to talk with you, at least now you go and prepare some hangover soup for me." He said and get into the bathroom.
She went to the kitchen prepared the hangover soup, placed it on the dining table along with his usual breakfast which she had already prepared earlier that morning. She turned on the television, sat down on the couch, watches some songs in the television.
Once he get dressed up formally to go to his office he walked to the living room, snatched the TV remote controller from Eunbi’s hand, turned off the TV, and asked her to come and sit down next to him on the dining table saying, "I want to talk with you."
Eunbi sighed with despair, stood down from the sofa walked towards the dining table. She roughly pulled out one of the chairs which was next to him and sat down on it.
He gazed at her and slurped a spoonful of soup, "today my best friend and his girlfriend are going to come to our house in the evening to visit us." He had another spoonful of soup, "If you try to behave smart in front of them I’ll punish you severely once they leave. Therefore, I hope that you will behave properly with me in front of them. I’ll send one of my favorite chefs from our hotel to prepare the dinner for us, when the chef comes don’t go and lock yourself in the room, stand beside him and learn some basic cooking skills from the chef because the soup tastes awful." Actually the soup she has prepared doesn’t taste too bad even though he just complains about it on purpose to test her patience. "I’m excusing you this time because it’s your beginning stage at cooking, but in future if you keep continue to cook the foods with such an awful taste I’ll spit that right on your face." He warned her, then had his breakfast in hurry, and went to his office.
Time passes quickly and soon it becomes evening the sun sets down as the sky darkens the city lights brightened up the evening. The chef came to the house along with his assistant with necessary equipments and ingredients, and they started to prepare the dinner.
Eunbi doesn’t like to socialize with the strangers, but as she heard the noises comes out from the kitchen she just can’t sit down simply on the sofa in the living room and watch the television. She walked towards the kitchen stood on the kitchen doorway and silently watches them the way of their cooking style. It was like a magic to her eyes she had seen it for many times however, she was amused each and every time she watches the professional cooks the foods in their own unique style.
"Mrs. Young-soo, do you want something to eat for now?" The chef asked her as she watches them.
"No thank you, chef I’m not in the appetite to eat now. I just wanted to watch the cooking style of the professionals so with your permission may I watch your way of cooking?"
"Of-course, ma’am you may watch us." The chef said and continues with his work.
It took them two hours to finish cooking the menu which was given by Young-soo. They organized the dishes neatly on the dining table and before they leave the house they thanked Eunbi, and said, "we hope that you will enjoy the dinner with your guest, ma’am."
Eunbi bowed her head to them, replied, "thank you chef for cooking us the dinner and we will enjoy having your preparations for sure."
Eunbi changed into saturated blue color knee length dress with round neck and long sleeves along with the empire waist belt. She combed her hair in a mid parted style and wore some light make-up. After a few minutes Young-soo came along with his best friend and his friend’s girlfriend. He introduced his wife to them, "meet my wife, Eunbi."
Eunbi smiled at them, and said, "Nice to meet you."
"Nice meeting you too, Eunbi- shi. I’m your husband’s school mate, college mate and his best friend, Kim Hoon-suk. She is my girlfriend Kang Sohee she’s one of the leading cosmetic models in our country, I hope that you would have seen her in some of the magazines, and also she’s a good friend of your husband." Kang Sohee and Eunbi gave each other a smile.
Hoon-suk asked Young-soo to stand beside his wife. As the couple stood next to each-other he gave them a basket of yellow roses and said, "We’re truly sorry for not attending your wedding; please accept this as a token of our apologies."
The couple received it with a smile, "yeah! It’s okay Hoon-suk-ah you don’t need to apologize I know how busy you are with your business," Young-soo replied.
Again he gave another flower basket which was filled with red roses, and said, "Please to accept my belated wedding wishes. May every passing day brings more joy, and I wish you to lead a wonderful life ahead."
The couple again received it with a smile Young-soo place the flower basket on the floor and hugged his friend, "Thanks a lot, my dear friend." Then he broke the hug and said, "Come let’s chat a lot by having the dinner."
Hoon-suk nodded his head.
They sat down on the dining chair; Young-soo served the rib-eye steak with finger chips to his friends and also for themselves along with glasses of wine. Four of them sliced their stakes into small pieces with the help of the butter knife and had a piece. Soon both the male started their discussion about their business, trips, and investments. The two ladies felt so bored to listen to their men’s discussion, so they had their dinner silently.
After the dinner Sohee asked Eunbi to tour the house and Eunbi did toured the house for Sohee and they sat down at the couch in the Eunbi’s room.
"Eunbi-shi, I heard everything about your marriage and I could understand the hardship you are going through inside your mind." Sohee said and held Eunbi’s hand, "but don’t worry because you’ve married a right person. Young-soo is such a wonderful person; he’s so understandable, kind, and humble. I’m sure that he’ll support you for your dreams and desires, and he’ll cherish your life. I think I don’t need to explain about his character because you would have already seen those qualities of him, isn’t?"
Eunbi just forced a smile on her face and lied, "yes, Sohee-shi what you have said about him is true."
The two male best friends enjoy their time at the dining table; they stopped their discussion about their business once the ladies left. Hoonsuk sipped the red wine from his glass and asked young-soo, "Did you contact Yoon Eunah?"
Young-soo pressed his lips together in line, nodded his head, "yes I talked with her yesterday over the phone, she said she was doing good, and asked me to take good care of her younger sister, Yoon Eunbi."
"Oh! that’s good to hear that she’s doing fine of her own in a new country. How are things going with your wife?"
Young-soo sighed and looked at him bit despondent, "We both are not happy with this relationship."
"Oh~ come-on Young-soo don’t lose your hope at any point, they say marriage is one of the beautiful relationships, try to enjoy each and every moment of your life with your wife." Hoon-suk, advised.
Young-soo smirked, "You’ve easily advised me, but it’s not that easy to implement your advice. How could I enjoy each and every moment of my life with her when she doesn’t let me near her? I should haven’t get into this arranged marriage, it’s only gives me pain in the ass. She’s not even allowing me to call her as my wife, whenever I call her as my wife she covers her ears and says she hated to hear those words of my filthy mouth. Do you know how it’s hurts me when she does like that in front of me. I would’ve not felt so hurt even if she would have slapped me at my face, but I couldn’t bear it when she shot me with some unendurable words such as a pervert, stranger and mad for money. When I first met her I thought my life has come back to me, but my thoughts were wrong. You knew very well that I’ve been dealing my business with lots of stress lately, but she just tests my patience so that I get mad at her easily. I wanted her to stand beside me to fill my loneliness, but she was one of the arrogant women I’ve never met before."
Hoon-suk smiled calmly, "You have spent only few days with her, but you are talking as if everything is over in between you guys. You are such an understandable person, Young-soo but in this matter I don’t know that why you are unable to understand the situation of your wife. Look Young-soo, you have to give her some time and space to prepare her mind to get adjusts to this whole new situation of her life, because she’s married you out of a blue, unexpectedly. Keep calm and have faith that she’ll accept you as her husband soon."
Young-soo nodded his head with half-minded to implement the advice of his friend.
The two ladies came out from the room and joined with their men at the dining table. Sohee informed Hoon-suk, "it’s already 10.00 pm because it’s romance time for the newly-married couple so we should leave the house before they feel that we are disturbing them."
Young-soo smirked, "yah~ Sohee-ya, I didn’t know that you know how to tease others, usually I used to tease you guys but now you are teasing me. Now tell me when you guys are planning to get married?"
Sohee put her hand around Hoon-suk’s shoulder, "We don’t have any plans of marriage probably after two three years we’ll decide on it. I need to achieve a lot in my carrier for that my jagiya will wait for me even more than ten years." She replied to Young-soo and asked Hoon-suk, "am I right, jagiya?"
Hoon-suk turned his head to Sohee’s side, replied, "You are always right, I can’t imagine my life without you, my dear."
Sara was moved with the words of her boyfriend she cupped his faced, pecked him on his lips, and said, "I love you so much, jagiya."
"I love you too, dear." Hoon-suk replied.
Young-soo cleared his throat on purpose to draw the lovey-dovey couple attention, "Yah~ don’t forget that we are watching you guys."
"We know that and we are not shy to kiss in front of you because we have done like this so many times in front of you during our college days, did you forget that?" Sohee asked Young-soo, and she stood down from the dining chair, "Come-on Jagiya let’s move from here it’s pretty late already," Sohee said once again to Hoon-suk.
Hoon-suk nodded his head and stood down from the dining chair, "it’s one of the greatest moments of our life to spend some quality of our time together in the house, and also we enjoyed the dinner."
Young-soo gave him a smile, "yeah, try to visit us often during your free time, and we’ll try to visit you at your place in our free time."
Hoon-suk, nodded his head.
Young-soo and Eunbi walked them to the entrance of the house to see them off. Before the couple enters into the car Hoon-suk hugged Young-soo and remembered him once again to be calm and patience until Eunbi changes her mind-set about him. Young-soo nodded his head his in agreement. Sohee hugged Eunbi and asked her to be happy without any worries. Eunbi replied her sure with a smile. Once Hoon-suk and Sohee gets into the car, Young-soo and Eunbi stood together and waved their hands to them with a smile as the car started to move.
Young-soo took first step to implement Hoon-suk’s advice, so that night he let Eunbi to sleep in a separate room as by her wish.
