[ rejection. part 3 ]

One Sided Marriage

I hung up and just laid on my bed, letting out a heavy sigh.

"Great, just... Great," I muttered under my own breath.

Well, I guess I had no choice then. I was marrying Luhan, whether I liked it or not... In two weeks, I was going to be Luhan's wife. Maybe Kyungsoo is right, I should find him charming in some way sooner or later. Honestly, Luhan isn't that bad. He's cute and really sweet. Maybe... Just maybe, I would actually fall for him.

My train of thoughts was interrupted when my phone vibrated in my hand.

New text message from [루한 오빠]*.

*Translates to Luhan oppa. "Oppa" is a term used by younger females towards older brothers, guy relatives/friends and boyfriends.

Oh crap. Did I make him feel guilty? I plucked up the courage to read the message. It was FULL of guilt.

Luhan's Message.

Ae Rim. I'm sorry. I know you don't feel the same way as I do. I'll call it off if you want to, I don't want this to affect our friendship, you know? I'd rather stay as friends than to force you to get married to me. It's okay, honestly. I... I don't want to see you cry, I don't want to see you frown, I don't want to see you suffer. Please reply.

Did I reply? Of course...

Your reply.

Luhan, you idiot. I didn't cry and run away because I didn't feel the same way. I ran away because it was overwhelming. I'm glad, to finally know that we feel the same way. Then again, we're getting MARRIED. We don't even have time to date like other couples. Honestly, I was expecting a grand proposal from you, Luhan. You've disappointed your soon-to-be wife. Hahaha, just kidding. Don't worry, okay? You're not forcing me at all. Should I start answering the phone with "Honey"? Or do you prefer "Deer"? Kekeke

Yes, I lied. The entire thing was a big, fat lie.

Luhan's reply.

I didn't know, Ae Rim. Wah~ I feel great now~ Didn't I tell you I'm a Sang Namja* (상남자)? No, wait, that's too long isn't it? Just call me how you usually do... kekeke

*Sang Namja (상남자) is something Luhan often refers himself as. It basically means "manly man". Yes, Luhan, you're very manly. /cough/ who am I kidding you're prettier than half the population of women /cough/

Well. Has my problem been solved? Nah.
