“Why do you love me?”
“I don’t know.”
“Hey! You can’t say that! There should be a reason in every action—or perhaps, you don’t really love me?”
“Yeah, right. I love you so much. And I’m sincerely love you.”
“Then why? Why do you love me?”
“There aren’t any specific reasons why I love you, Sooyoung-ah—“
“Oppaaaaaaaa...”
“Okay. Okay. Because you are beautiful?”

Sooyoung tightened up her blanket more and more. Her two beautiful eyes were blinking, adjusting to sunlight that enter through curtain in her bedroom. Correction, her AND her husband’s bedroom. Girl, who become a woman since a month ago, moved her head to find her husband. None.
“Ah, I forgot that Oppa was having a tour in Japan.” Therefore, rather than getting up from her bed, she raised her blanket till it covered her whole face.
Sooyoung just remembered with her dream. Well, actually not really a dream. It’s a memory that rewinded when she’s sleeping. That’s why Sooyoung suddenly woke up when she should be resting right now. It’s not that she wanted to be a lazy wife by waking up at 10.15 a.m. But, right now Sooyoung was sick. Since four days ago she’s sick. Headache, rise of body temperature, and also red spots on whole of her body. Yes, on whole of her body! Do you know? Sooyoung was right now having chicken pox.
“... Because you are beautiful?” her husband’s voice suddenly existed in her ears. Making Sooyoung very disturbed. So that, all of sudden, she kicked her blanket that it was flew away to the ground.
“AAAAAAAAAAAA” cried Sooyoung. “Why now? Why now?”
Before, Sooyoung never got chicken pox. When her little sisters got it, Sooyoung annoyingly mocked them, who got it on their whole body. And it seems that, it was a sin to Sooyoung. That she got herself a karma: got chicken pox while she was married and got it twice more than it was on her sisters’ body.
“I’m going home on Saturday.” Another words from Sungjae came out to her ears. Oh really, Sooyoung wished that today was Tuesday—the day when Sungjae went to Japan and the day before the pox came up on her body. But the reality kicked hard, today was Saturday, the day when Sungjae will go home.
She didn’t know how much time left that Sungjae arrived to their home—actually Sooyoung suspected that it will be less than 12 hours from now. Then, he will found his wife full of pox on her body. What expression that Sungjae showed to her? Now, how Sooyoung cope with Sungjae later? No, how to make these pox gone in hours without leaving scar marks? Aish...
Slowly, Sooyoung left her bed. Wanted to go to the bathroom to take a pee after waking up. A routine. But (again), when she passed her dresser, she spontaneous looked to it. And found her reflection on the mirror. Dan “WHAT?!” shrieked her suddenly when she saw some of the pox, which was red before, turned into brownish. Scars? “ANDWEE!”
Therefore, Sooyoung ran toward bathroom. Couldn’t bear with herself that became worst.
***
An hour ago, her house’s atmosphere was still quiet. Half an hour ago, there was noisy sound from Sooyoung’s steps made. And since five minutes ago, there was a sound heard noisier than before, then the house became very quiet again.
“Honey?” voice from Mr. Yook could be heard by Sooyou
