Love Quest

Description

Poster credit: ElleJacobs at Idea Garden and Gallery 


No one wants to be alone in this world and that included Jong Suk, he craved a human companion. He wanted someone to share his life with and he had been searching for several years now.

But too many stories were told of him and many women shunned him. He wasn't bad looking but the princes of the other kingdoms had spoke ill of him in order to take the girls he courted.

They told stories of his dirty deeds, how he hid all the other girls he dated. How they were found dead in his car. They told stories to girls who were interested in him, that he looked like a monster.

His face was fat, bulging, he had a long hairy beard that kept the girls’ fingertips entangled inside. He expected his girls to do so much for him and they were disgusted by what he wanted. That his current face, the beautiful face was just a mask they said. It ruined him.

All of them abandoned him at the first chance once they heard the rumors, but that's exactly what they were. Rumors.

He needed a plan to get the girl who stay, who would stick around through the lies and stay by his side. But first he needed to find her, he needed a companion and this was his last chance.

Foreword

“Hyolim! Be careful, okay? Don’t go too far!” Her father called out to her, but she dismissed him. She knew her way around by now, he just kept her at his side because he was frightened of the King. She was of marrying age, and she had yet to find a suitor she liked. Her father kept setting her up with men, but none of them appealed to her.

None of them treated with kindness, they all talked about their future plans of her being a housewife and them making the money. This was not a bad life, of course, but this was not the life that she had wanted. In fact, she wanted something more real, more anything. She wanted a gentleman that would give her equal footing in love and at work.

But that was not something she was born to find. She watched over the children as part of her job, which was probably why many men only wanted her as a housewife.

As soon as she approached, all of the children ran to hug her. “Miss Hyolim!” They screamed together. She bent down to smile at each and every one of them.

“Hello, children. So what did you do at school today?” She asked, leading them to their play area, it was a small little thing with a few slides and some balls for the boys to play with.

“Math. It was hard, we were adding three-digit numbers this time.” One of the boys answered, before running off and starting a game of catch.

She watched them as they continued to play, but someone passing by was also watching her. She couldn’t tell but he smiled when she did, and he enjoyed watching her interact with the kids, her whole heart was given to them.

“Ahhh! Stop it!” A girl whined and immediately Hyolim stood up and ran for her, there were several boys picking on her and she pushed them off.

“Hey, what did I say about bullying?” She asked them sternly.

“She started it, she wanted to join our game.” The leader of the pack said confidently.

“And? A girl can’t play catch?” She asked him, bending down to be at their eye level.

“We don’t play with ugly girls.” The boy replied and Hyolim slapped his hand and he winced.

“I told you, no bullying.” She said, “Apologize.” 

“No, she is ugly.” The leader said, while the rest of the boys muttered their apologies. Hyolim sighed, dismissing them all but the leader, she held onto the girl’s hand carefully comforting her against his words.

“I told you Hyunjae. You have to be nice to her. Or else, you can’t play in this group anymore.” Hyolim told him.

Hyunjae’s jaw dropped, “But all my friends are in this group! Why can’t you just kick her out? Then I don’t have to see her face.” He said, pointing his finger blatantly at the girl.

“I already told you, you can’t judge people by their appearance, she might be really good at catch. But you would never know because you’re a bully. Now apologize, or I will call your parents to move you from this group.” Hyolim said sternly, putting her hands on her hips.

“Fine, I’m sorry, Mari.” He said, running off back to his friends. 

Hyolim turned to the little girl and cupped her face, she had been crying. “Mari, don’t listen to him, okay? You’re beautiful.” She said to her.

“But I have a big mark on face, unni. He is right, I’m ugly.” Mari said, between hiccups from her tears.

“Mari, you are beautiful. Do not listen to him, you have a beauty mark, and a beauty mark just makes you more beautiful. Besides, Hyunjae might not love you for it, but someone will. Someone will see past all the things people think of you, and just see you. And that will be the day you find love.” Hyolim assured her, “But that’s for when you grow up, for now, just play with the other girls, okay?"

Mari nodded, wiping her face and running back to the group of girls who were playing hopscotch. Hyolim smiled to herself as she saw Mari had some girlfriends to rely on.

But he smiled as well, for she was perfect. Utterly perfect and that meant he needed to have her. It was time for the plan.
