Quite Unreal
Uncommitted?Byunghun walked straight into his bedroom after he heard you two. He certainly didn't want to face any of you right now. Without a doubt, it would be very awkward. He threw his stuff onto his bed and sat down on the edge. He messed his hair and bit his lower lip. He wasn't even going to try and deny that he was jealous. It would be pointless. Without thinking twice, he knew what he had to do. He had to win you back.
Later, when Myungsoo and you were done eating, he stayed for a while to help you clean up the kitchen.
"It's pretty late, huh? When does he usually come back home?" Myungsoo asked as he turned to look from the clock to you. It was already 10 PM.
"He's usually back home at six, if he doesn't go out to eat with his friends." You shrugged. You put some food into a plate and leave it on the table. Though Byunghun was mad at you for shopping baby's clothes with Myungsoo, you still worried about him and left some dinner for him, just in case.
Myungsoo nodded and then he pulled you closer to him, smiling. "It was wonderful to spend a whole day with you, beautiful."
You nodded, feeling sad though. As soon as Myungsoo steps out of your house, you won't be able to see him for a week. It's not that long, but now that things are awkward again between you and Byunghun, plus Minji is not here, it won't be something nice.
"As soon as the week is over, we'll be seeing each other so much, you'll be sick of it." Myungsoo laughed. You laughed too and slowly nodded. "Take good care of yourself, ok? And if there's anything you need or want, don't doubt calling me."
"Though you might not answer or call me back?" You asked.
"Hey, being busy doesn't mean I won't call you back...but, yes, honestly, I might not answer." He pouted. He really felt bad for it.
You shook your head. "Don't worry about me. Seriously, what's up with Minji and you? Being pregnant does not mean I can't do anything, guys!" You sighed. "You take care of yourself and don't get sick."
He nodded. "See you soon." He said and then kissed you. You kissed him back and then he left.
Next morning, you woke up pretty early because of a random dream you had. You were actually sad that it was not real, and decided to go downstairs to have some breakfast. To your surprise, Byunghun was already awake and cooking some breakfast.
"Good morning, ____, I hope you're hungry. I've prepared your favorite." Byunghun said with a smile.
"Uh-huh?" You couldn't help but to be confused.
Byunghun turned to look at you, happily, but soon his face changed into a concerned one. "What happened?"
"W-What do you mean?" You furrowed your eyebrows.
"Have you been crying?" He asked as he moved closer to check on you.
Your eyes widened and soon you thought about the dream you had. You were so confused right now and you didn't even understand your feelings, they were just too many and too opposite, if it made sense. You were sad and happy at the same time, concerned and calm, mad and fine. Right now, you didn't even understand Byunghun's behaviour. It only made you doubt if it was even real.
"____, what happened?" Byunghun insisted.
You wanted to tell him so badly about your dream...
Today, you woke up in the master bedroom instead of your room. You were alone. You looked around and just on the wall behind the bed, you saw a picture of you wearing a wedding gown and surprisingly, your groom was Byunghun. You blinked at the picture, not understanding what was going on. You two looked so happy. You couldn't help but to think it was fake.
"Mommy, mommy!" A child's voice echoed through the whole house. Just then, the door opened and in a ran a little boy holding a gift, and following behind was Byunghun. He was holding a tray with food and a flower.
"Good morning, wifey." Byunghun said sweetly with a smile. The kid jumped into the bed and showed you the gift.
"Happy mother's day!" He shouted. You were speechless, shocked.
"What's wrong, wifey? Are you feeling alright?" Byunghun asked concerned.
You couldn't think straight right now as the word 'wifey' kept on repeating in your mind.
"Mommy, open your gift." Your son said as he put the gift in your lap. Still speechless, you opened it. It was an album filled with pictures and some things written next to them: the date, something special and a signature from whom wrote it. "Do you like it, mommy?"
The first picture was of Byunghun and you together at the hospital, holding your son. The message said 'Probably the happiest day of my life after my wedding. My vows are becoming real now. Marrying the girl I love, forming a family with her, and sharing together these one-of-a-kind moments that won't be repeated. With you, I'll have everything I'll ever need. I love you, more than words can describe, ____. - Yours only, Byunghun.'
"What's wrong, mommy?" Your son asked as you had started to cry.
"Hey, it's okay." Byunghun said soothingly as he was sitting on the other side and lovingly caressing your cheek, later kissing it. You turned to look at him. Not being able to understand any of what was going on. "I cooked your favorite, wifey. Today's your day, just relax and when you're done, we'll do whatever you want to. Saranghaeyo."
You doubted if it would ever be real. And you felt as though you couldn't tell him about your dream.
"Oh, nothing, I just yawned." You lied.
Byunghun slowly nodded. You knew he didn't believe it, but was glad he played along. He cleared his throat before finally daring to ask what he was thinking.
"Are you seeing Myungsoo today?" He asked.
You were surprised, but shook your head in response. "No, we won't be seeing each other for a week." You said sadly.
Byunghun nodded, actually he was very glad to hear that. "____, I'm very sorry for the way I acted before. I shouldn't have taken it that way. Please do forgive me. And, if you don't mind, I would like to see what Myungsoo and you chose for our baby." He said.
You smiled, not holding any grudges against him, and nodded. "Of course, Byunghun!"
He smiled too. "Thank you. So, you forgive me?" He asked.
You nodded again. "Yes, don't worry about it."
I'll show you that I've changed and I'm very sorry. I'll let you know that I do regret letting my opportunity with you pass by and that I won't be the same jerk. You'll soon know and never forget that I love you, and that Myungsoo has got some competition because I won't let you go that easily. Byunghun thought with a smile. This week will be unforgettable.
