Foreword
I. Just. Ran. Away.
From my own freaking wedding.
"Oh my God, Choi Lia, what have you done?" I mumble to myself as I was panting, tired of running.
"You just ran away from your wedding."
I kept panting as I turn my head to face Baekhyun, my childhood bestfriend, my teenage sweetheart.
"Oh God. Kyungsoo. I ditched him. Oh God, my parents." I muttered as I started to panic.
I felt Baekhyun's grip on my arms before I heard him said.
"Hey, Lia, Lia, calm down. You did the right thing." He said as he looked straight into my eyes.
"Right thing what? I'm getting married." I said in an overly high pitched voice.
"Then, why did you ran away?"
I felt even more panicked under Baekhyun's scrunity.
"I don't.... I don't know." I started to stutter.
"You stopped my wedding." I pointed at him.
"Yes. I did. But, you ran. Why?"
There was a few seconds of silence.
"I don't love him." I said half midedly.
"There it is." Baekhyun finally let go of his grip in my arms.
"But, I want to get married, Baekhyun." I didn't realized I was half screaming at him.
"Then, marry me." Baekhyun tilted his head as he said it.
"What? You're crazy. I don't know you. You had dissapeared for like what, 10 years?" I glared at him.
"So, let's get to know me." Baekhyun smiled as beautiful as I could remember.
"And, it's been 12 years, by the way, since my mother and I left Korea." He said as he dragged me towards his car.
