Chapter 22
This YearTaehyung POV
As I walked into the hallways behind Minah, I saw the figure of the man I was going to face soon, sitting on the couch and reading a newspaper.
...Mr.Park. My girlfriend’s dad. My love’s dad… Minah’s dad…..
‘Okay, be cool Taehyung. You only get one shot at this. Do this...for you…and for her .’ I thought. I reassured myself, inaudible for anyone else to hear.
Minah turned around, giving me a reassuring smile as I came face to face with Mr. Park. Her smile helped me relax for a second.
“Who are you?” He asked in a stern voice.”
"H-h-hello Mr.Park. I'm Taehyung, Minah's boyfriend." I shuttered bowing and greeting Minah’s dad respectfully. As Minah’s dad looked up from his newspaper with an unreadable expression.
"B-B-B-B-BOYFRIEND?!" Minah's dad yelled with an unreadable expression.
"Uhm.. Neh Appa… he's my boyfriend…" Minah said while looking at me.
"Pleased to meet you, Mr. Park." I said and held my hand out, waiting for him to shake it.
He glared at me, and looked back at his newspaper, ignoring the fact that I had my hand held out.
I retracted my hand awkwardly, and cleared my throat.
I looked around the house, feeling so embarrassed.
Just then, Minah's mom came in and called us for dinner.
I sat awkwardly, while looking at all the delicious Vietnamese food Minah’s mom made for dinner. My mouth watered, for I had not had a meal like this in a very long time. I love Vietnamese food, and there was Pho! Oh My! I’m so happy!
I felt a light kick from Minah, who was sitting across the table from me, breaking my train of thoughts. I looked at her, confused. ‘Eat!’ She mouthed.
I smiled at her, and she gave a small smile back.
I was about to reach for my chopsticks slowly.
“Why aren’t you eating?” Minah’s dad asked
“Huh? Oh. I’m eating!” I panicked, grabbing my chopsticks, and eating some noodles, realizing that everyone had already started to eat and were staring at me weirdly.
I never felt so scared or worried in my life. I don’t get worried or scared easily, but this is nerve-racking. Even for me.
I ate carefully, not wanting to look like a pig in front my future parents and siblings in law. I slightly grinned at the thought.
Minah's dad looked at my weirdly.
"What are you doing?" He asked.
I looked surprised and looked at Minah. She looked at me, giving me a face that I should just go along with it.
"…Eating…”
“Eat faster! “he yelled. “ I don’t want my daughter to be dating a slow poke like you!”
“N-neh.” I shuttered, surprised, and eating my noodles faster.
--
I was almost finished eating, and only had the bowl of soup left. I picked up the bowl of soup from the table and held it in my hand.
I flinched from the hot temperature of the bowl, and spilled some on my pants. I looked down, and my pants… were wet….
"Oh my god." I heard Minah say, and laugh. I looked up, and saw that everyone was also in fits of laughter.
.... That was so embarrassing. I’m SO going to die….
Mr.Park looked at me with a grin on his face, trying to suppress his laughter.
I excused myself, headed to the bathroom.
"Uhm…Minah ...where’s the bathroom?" I say embarrassed, and covering my red face.
"Down the hall, Taeyhung-ah." she replied to me between laughter
Aishh! This girl… But I still love her anyway…
As soon as I got up and took a step towards the bathroom, I slipped on some soup that I spilled on the floor, and fell flat on my face….
Everyone in the room looked at me with a devastated face, then bursted out with laughter.
I am so dead…
