Chapter 10: 101 Reasons

"There are so many reasons that I like you.."

Bong Hee smiled as soon as he starts singing. Boy, her husband could really sing. She always melts like butter whenever she hears him sing.

"I’ll run out of breath if I list every one. You can count up to 101 but it won’t end."

She gets butterflies in her stomach whenever she hears this song. It is the song he sang to her when he proposed and during their wedding.

"But tonight, I’ll sit you down and tell you all of them."

She knows she's going to cry anytime soon but she tried to hold it in. But then Ji Wook looked at her lovingly and smiled. She can't help but smile, too.

"One, you have a lot of tears.

You’re pretty when you cry.

Second, you’re like a kid..when you smile.

Third, your heart.

Fourth, your heart.

All of you is so pretty.

You make a reason for all of my actions."

He walks toward Bong Hee and holds her hand.

"When I see you, I wanna hug you.

I wanna tell you about my day.

The more I see you, the more my heart goes to you

The prettier you get."

He kisses her cheek and it surprised everyone. It's rare for them see Ji Wook and Bong Hee's public display of affection but when they do, it kills them all. And right now, Bong Hee's blushing way too hard. Ji Wook smiles because of it.

"When I see you, my lips keep going to you.

That’s how you make me act.

So what other reason can I tell you?"

He kisses her hand.

"I have no other greed.

I like things right now.

Being with you.

Just wanna hug you like now.

Just wanna see you like today.

Every day, I wanna be with you."

Bong Hee is so close to crying. She thought, how did she get so lucky?

"When I see you, I wanna hug you.

I wanna tell you about my day.

The more I see you, the more my heart goes to you.

The prettier you get.

When I see you, my lips keep going to you

That’s how you make me act

So what other reason can I tell you?"

Bong Hee: I love you.. Jagiya..

She hugs him in front of everyone. He smiles.

"There are so many reasons that I like you.

You can count up to 101 but it won’t end."

Ji Wook: I love you more.

*****

Everybody said their goodbyes, wishing Ji Wook and Bong Hee well. They'll be leaving very early in the morning and it's the last time they're going to see the others.

Bong Hee: Thank you, jagiya.

Ji Wook: Hmm? (He looks at her as he drives) For what?

Bong Hee: For tonight.. And for everything else. (She reaches for his cheek.) Thank y
