“You may now kiss the bride” The most climatic part of the emotional turmoil Amber was feeling ever since yesterday has come.

 Her hands were sweaty the moment she woke up, she kept on fidgeting inside the car that made Tiffany smack her on her head. She wanted to run, tell everybody that she’s not Yiyun and curse him for making her life this difficult.

She talked with Seulgi that night, telling her about what she feels about this. Specially that they are scheduled for the honeymoon… yeah, the honeymoon another level up of this torture she’s experiencing. She don’t know how to avoid Krystal if she initiated things because for sure she wouldn’t try and oppose it for she doesn’t want to see a flaming angry Jung.

She decided to follow Tiffany’s advice of that 50 shades of Grey technique if worse comes to worst, she even bought ropes, and cable ties weeks ago the only thing that’s missing is that ‘thing’. Of course she didn’t tell Seulgi about it even when she asked her plans about the honeymoon. She answered her safely telling that they might just shop, eat and stroll around but the other was kind of worried, she knows how women act when pregnant and she had the feeling that something more might happen.

“I think we need to cool off for a bit” Seulgi said on the other line, her heart was heavy and she can’t ignore it.

“But Seul, nothing’s gonna happen and I would not let it happen” Amber protested even she herself is not sure about it. She eyed the cable ties carefully placed on her desk and sighed.

“It’s better for the both of us Am, I am not used to this long distance relationship. If you’re awake, I’m asleep and vice versa. We barely talk our messages were always 8 to 12 hours apart. I need a break Amber, if it’s us then it’s us. I’ll just wait for you to come home here but I’m not sure how long exactly I can wait”

“Seul, Are you… breaking up with me?”

“No. I just need some time off, the breaking up thing is… for you to decide”

The line went dead for a while until Amber heard a faint sob from Seulgi.

“Don’t give up on us ‘kay?”

“I’ll try”

“Yiyun?” Amber was cut off from her thoughts when she heard Krystal who was facing her, a smile drawn on her face. She nervously faced back, eyeing at Tiffany who was giving her a teasing look that didn’t help her in any way.

“Uh – Yeah” Amber pulled the white veil up and gently Krystal’s face, as much as she didn’t want to admit it, she already found Krystal amazingly pretty.

She needed to take a deep breath, gathering up enough courage and leaned closer. Her breath stopped when she caught the other bit her lip in a y way that brought another surge of conflicting emotions into her.

Until their lips met, Krystal’s lips were soft, Amber thought. She was about to pull back but Krystal suddenly grabbed the back of her neck and pulled her closer, smashing their lips deeper. Before their kiss ended, Krystal tugged Amber’s lower lip and groaned.

The audience before them wooed in excitement except for five people, Mr. and Mrs. Liu, Tiffany, Jessica and Taeyeon who were quite a bit shocked with what they just saw.

Taeyeon has thoughts running in her mind as she observed Amber from the distance, It all started when she saw Tiffany from the Black shop, she’s not naïve not to know what that black box means and she suddenly asked herself why Tiffany would buy those stuff.

It doesn’t matter to her if Tiffany is gay since she found her alluringly y and she really loved to see those …scratch that. But thinking that Tiffany would use it for herself is kinda out of character.

Tiffany denied that it was for herself and it was just a gift for a relative, she wanted to dig in further but she stopped herself. She’ll learn about it in the future, for now, she needs to keep an eye to Yiyun.

“If she hurts our sister once again, I’ll skin him alive” Taeyeon heard Jessica murmured beside her with that icy aura that always scare other people.

“He’ll not or I thought, but at this rate he would not”

“How can you be so sure?”

“He’s… Different” And it struck her, the sudden change in Yiyun’s attitude. His disappearance, his sudden return and him surprisingly being too caring of the girl he once called a past – time accident.

Her eyes grew wide, no one will change so abrupt in a matter of a week.

“What?” Jessica noticed the change in Taeyeon’s mood.

“Uh – Nothing” Taeyeon became more convinced to pull the truth if not from Yiyun then to Tiffany. She wouldn’t let Krystal be deceived twice, if that man is not Yiyun then it’s definitely Amber who has a fiancée for goodness sake.

“The reception is at our family’s restaurant, hope to see you guys there and Take Care” Amber announced as she walked into Tiffany and her parent’s corner since Krystal is with her own relatives.

She can feel the eyes of Taeyeon on her all this time and it makes her feel uneasy.

“I didn’t see that coming” Mr. Jung told her once she got near.

“I didn’t see it either”

“I’m really sorry for this Amber, you’ve been through a lot”

“It’s okay dad”

“By the way uncle, can I borrow Amber for a while? I have a very special gift for her” Tiffany said as she grabbed Amber’s wrist and dragged her to the empty room where a gift covered in pink wrapper lay quietly on the table.

“What’s this?” Amber pointed at the box.

“A gift coming from your most intelligent sister. I went through hell just to get that for you y’know”

Amber smirked and approached the box, shaking it to get an idea of what’s inside while Tiffany was starting to laugh her heart out deep inside her.

“You really is sweet. Thanks, Can I open it now?”

“Yeah sure, just place it on this bag right after” Tiffany gave her a blue paper bag which earned her a brow raise from the other.

“What for?”

“You need that, trust me”

Amber shrugged and ripped the wrapper off, revealing a pure black box with a drawing of a pink pig and a sign of Tiffany beside. She smiled at the childishness but all of it vanished when she opened the box and saw what was inside.

“Are you sure about this?” Amber showed Tiffany the ‘thing’ it was unexpected with it’s size and diameter that even Tiffany had her jaw drop.

“Do you honestly even think this would fit?” Tiffany’s face grew deep red at the sight. She didn’t check the size, she just grabbed it from the lady and ran – off who know it would be that big.

“I – I didn’t see that coming” She mumbled. Still can’t fix her eyes on the strap on she gave to Amber.

“I appreciate the help but this cannot fit, we’re not western people” Amber suddenly found the whole thing funny that she started to laugh.

 “I really should’ve checked it”

“No worries. I bought the cable ties and ropes but at this rate I have more reason to prevent anything from happening.”

Tiffany finally smiled back but they both panicked when someone knocked and they heard Taeyeon’s voice from the outsde.

Amber instinctively threw the ‘thing’ to Tiffany who threw it back to her and they both slid it inside the bag. Tiff opened the door and welcomed Taeyeon in who congratulated her, eyes roaming around the area until she noticed the bag and the pink wrapper she recognized immediately.

That was the wrapper Tiffany bought with her, two days after she caught her from the black shop.

Amber and tiffany excused themselves from her and went out right away, she was about to follow suit until her eyes caught a tag from the floor. Picking it up, she had her thought confirmed when she read the tag from the black shop.

“No one ever plays tricks on Kim Taeyeon” She mumbled and tore the paper in half.
