PROLOGUE
 
FIRST MEETING: Both were childhood pals. Their grandparents and parents were friends for a long time even before the kids were born. It was their grandparents' wishes for them to marry each other when they become adults. So from young time, these two have been playmates. Enrolling into the same school and was in the same class. 

ARRANGED MARRIAGE: When they both turned 20, their parents hinted to them about marrying each other as they are very compatible but both of them turned the idea down (ew ew ew yuck yuck yuck). It wasn't until 5 years later when youngho's mother reached out to the Lees. Because the law firm that was founded by youngho's father was failing, he needed to do whatever it takes to revive it again so as to not let his father's efforts go to waste. But he knew that as a newbie lawyer, no one would want his services therefore he needed to get someone experienced and with a good rep to join the law firm. Lee Jung Woo who was Haryung's father was the man. The Seos reached out to him with a request to join the law firm and help bring back businesses and revive it. Mr Lee was more than happy to help, but on one condition: that youngho marries haryung. His reason for it was simple, he believes youngho is the right man for his daughter and could take care of her. Plus, they've been friends since young so there's no reason to reject. And they're both single anyway. Youngho agreed to it readily, he had nothing to lose by marrying haryung. he was already comfortable with her so there's no big deal. they were even more surprised when haryung agreed as well all for one simple reason, to get away from her clingy ex boyfriend. so both sides win.  

EPILOGUE
 
AFTER MARRYING: 
- the pair moved into a small but cozy 2 bedroom apartment (his mother declined moving in with them as she did not want to disrupt their marriage life) 
- their r/s seemed normal even after getting married
- the two slept in seperate bedrooms but still continued behaving like close friends
- both were just so comfortable with each other that there was no awkwardness whatsoever
- they go to work as usual, he'll pick her up and go home together
- she will attempt to cook but ultimately give up and he'll cook instead 
- they'll have dinner and watch netflix together 
- at times haryung will come back and rant about how she made a mistake in her design and almost cost the bridal shop an important customer etc 
- youngho will just quietly listen to her rant and give her some ice cream
- haryung will always ask youngho how's work and he would tell her the good stuff only
- it always take a little persuading from haryung to get him to talk more about the bad things that happen 

TURNING POINT (six months after marriage): one day, youngho fell really ill because of work stress and so he was having a very high fever and was in bed the whole day. haryung didn't know as she was working the entire day and only came back to see a really sick youngho in bed, all sweaty with a pail beside him for him to vomit into. she went into a little panic mode when she saw him lying motionless in the bed. But when she saw him moving a bit she immediately started working on the cold cloth, medicines and thermometer.

"since when did he became really handsome..?" she wondered as she dabbed the cold cloth on youngho's forehead. 

"he looked like an angel here.." 

That was the very first time haryung spend a long time just looking at youngho. youngho also has a habit of sleep talking so when he was in and out of consciousness..

"i love you..haryung"

haryung was shocked when she heard that. After youngho recovered, it seemed like he didn't remember the things he said when he was sick. But haryung started getting all weird and shy around him from then on. Youngho could sense the change in her behavior around him but he didn't mention anything as he knew she would threw a temper

CONFESSION (nine months after marriage): Haryung knew she was falling in love with youngho. Heck she knew the signs but she didn't know when she started.. was it when he fell ill??? or was it way earlier on??? Anyway, she knew she couldn't repress her feelings any longer or she'd go crazy so she decided to confess. She was sure youngho was in love with her already if not he wouldn't say those things in his sleep!! Youngho poor boy was in shocked that he stopped functioning for a few minutes 

"this.. is so sudden..????"
"no it's not!!!! you're in love with me too aren't you??"
"... how do you know?" 
".. you said it." 
"when?!" 
"not gonna tell you~"
" i don't recall anything?"
"oh shut up and kiss me seo youngho!" 

and that was how they officially became a couple

potential marriage problems:
- workaholic: youngho gets too invested in his work as a lawyer (since he needed to build his reputation up to gain more clients) that he would forget to spend time with haryung (missed dates, spend the night at the office etc)
- crazy ex-boyfriend back at it again: even after marrying, her ex-boyfriend just wouldn't let her go. because he's also a powerful and rich figure, putting him behind bars or sueing him won't work. also, the media would create false reports on how haryung has an affair with her ex boyfriend after marrying youngho etc.
- office scandal: since youngho spends so much time at the firm, there's always the problem with some hot young female paralegal trying to seduce him.. 

HARYUNG'S LIFESTYLE:
- wakes up a little later than youngho
- they'll have breakfast together before heading to work together
- haryung will reach the bridal store around 9am 
- steam iron gowns, prepare gowns for clients, finish up designs etc
- help clients with the trying of gowns, studio photoshoots etc 
- she does not join the outdoor shoots as she mostly stay in the store to finish her gown designs 
- she will end work around 6pm and if youngho has to work late, she will go home alone
- but she will never go home alone when the sky is dark, somehow youngho will always arrange for a driver to send her home if he has to stay late in the office 
- she will make simple meals for dinner (meals that she could at least cook) 
- she and youngho would do some couple's exercise before heading to bed 
- on the weekends she would stay home and work instead
- she would work on her designs especially the custom made ones
-  after finishing up her work, she would take some time to workout (yoga or pilates)
- the rest of the afternoon she'd have some time to herself before the couple head to dinner with their family (it's a weekend thing) 

YOUNGHO'S LIFESTYLE:
- the first to always wake up 
- he'll cook breakfast every morning
- fetches haryung to work before heading to the firm at 9:30am
- usually end work around 6pm but if there's a need, he would work late until 11pm
- by then he would come home around midnight 
- but he would have supper on the table made by haryung with a sweet little note 
- if he does not need to work late he would pick haryung up and head home together
- the two would spend the rest of the evening either exercising together, watching netflix or just cuddling before bed
- on the weekends he will still head to the firm but for short hours of time 
- he will make sure to be home by afternoon with some groceries picked up along the way 
- he will spend the rest of the afternoon doing his own things before heading for the family dinner   

COUPLE TRIVIA :
✤ Wedded: 11th January 2019 (they've been married for at least a year now)
✤ haryung designed her own wedding dress
✤ Honeymoon: Jeju Island but for them, it was more of a vacation with friends. 
✤ remember confession night? nine months after they married was only when they.. did the deed lmao.
✤ that was also when they moved in together in the same bedroom  
✤ haryung tend to show her jealously more explicitly like yelling or glaring at him
✤ youngho prefers to hide his jealously but because of it, he tend to be more affectionate and clingy (wink wonk) 
✤ haryung is always initiating love making night lmao
✤ she would always wear her lingerie and try to seduce him
✤ it works if he's not doing his work but if he does, then he would always ask her to wait until he's done sending an email. 
✤ she would get a little upset and pout while sitting on the bed. but by the time he's done, she would have fallen asleep lmao
✤  but he always makes it up to her the next morning wink wonk  
✤ youngho may seemed like the vanilla kind of guy but ahem, he's not.. NOPE
✤ occasionally if haryung wants to spice things up she'd do things to provoke him 
✤  and they'd ended up having the most mind blowing wink wonk muahahahah
✤ anyway.. youngho is the breakfast chef in the house whereas haryung cooks dinner
✤ because haryung isn't a really good cook, she cooks only simple dishes like pasta or kimchi fried rice
✤ but occasionally she will ask her mother or mother in law for recipes and instructions on cooking higher level dishes for youngho 
✤ kids is definitely in the picture, they aren't actively trying but they are letting nature takes it course 
✤ youngho doesn't really know how to be a romantic so haryung is the more romantic one in the r/s lol
✤  but sometimes she gets frustrated as youngho is quite dense and she would have to explicitly tell him occasionally she wants some flowers 
✤  youngho would be like "okay" and then proceeds to order like 30 roses for her and have it delivered to her workplace lmao
✤  sometimes when they're window shopping and they walk past a jewellery shop, haryung would just randomly tell  him how nice the necklace (not expecting him to buy ofc) but he would be like "you like it? ok let's buy" and proceeds to enter the shop lol (but never end up buying it cause haryung would tell him not to waste so much money)
✤  haryung would get flustered but finds it so sweet at the same time (how youngho could be so dense yet cute) 
✤ he also gets super protective if her ex boyfriend try to constantly bother her. if there's a confrontation, he won't use violence but there would prolly an exchange of snarky words and some glares here and there.
