chapter13

The knot

There was nothing for so eun and woo bin to do once they reached their new house where their interior designer shall be waiting, the designer has suggested too many things and both the contract couple soon accepted, woo bin didn’t have many preferences and so eun thought it was not her place to decide since she wasn’t righteous to the position she is holding now. But she felt grateful for one thing though, keeping in mind her interest to read, mr.kim has already suggested the lady before them to also design a reading room for her to study and have time for herself, like woo bin gets a music room with sound proof walls just like in their old home, so eun was really touched by the fact that he really treated her like a daughter.  In about an hour, they both accepted to whatever the designer has said and finalized everything. They thought they played their fake couple drama well and were about to leave when the designer stopped them asking
“woo bin sshi, if you don’t mind can I add this house to my personal blog ?”
“blog ?” he asked her
“yes, I generally share the experience of my customers over my personal blog, I wanted to add about you and your wife too sir, if you don’t mind, can I ?” the designer politely requested, seeing no harm in that woo bin agreed saying
“sure, I see no problem in that” delighted by his reply, the designer made her way to her bag and took her camera out of it and pointing it towards them she asked
“thank you sir, will you two pose for a photo for me? So that I can add that too”
“sure” woo bin said as he moved a little closer to so eun and stood beside her and they both smiled, the designer was not so much pleased with what they posed she asked them
“sir, madam, can you two pose a little closer, may be holding hands or something?” this was something they both didn’t expect, but once they already are in for this they can’t escape now, woo bin moved a little more closer such that his hand is now brushing with her hand and slowly pulled her closer by wrapping his hand around her waist, so eun was surprised by his act, she immediately looked towards him and sensing her stare he looked to  her in her eye, looking in one another eyes they both were lost for a second when woo bin nodded to her saying that she too must do the same he did, so eun did the same, as her hand crawled up his body, the intensity of his gaze increased, he was now completely looking only at her, for a second forgot that there was someone else in that room. The designer was pretty pleased with what she captured now, both the couple holding one another and lost in their stares, happily she thanked them saying
“thank you sir, I got a  great picture” hearing her both of them snapped back to reality and let go of one another, so eun first to break their stare and awkwardly turn away. After the designer has left woo bin said he would wait for her in the car, while so eun went to grab her bag and book she left in the other room when they were checking all the rooms. As she went towards her bag she heard her phone ringing. It was jong suk, even though they exchanged their numbers previously she didn’t expect him to call too soon, it has just been a day, hesitantly she picked up the call and said
“hello ?”
“hello so eun ah” jong suk greeted her happily, he was very much excited to call her
“how are you  jong suk sshi?” so eun asked him
“I am fine so eun ah, but I am feeling bad with one thing you did”
“me ?  what did I do ?” so eun asked worriedly thinking did she offend him in some way ?
“you using formal language yet, I thought we were friends”
“oh” so eun felt relieved that it was nothing, while jong suk spoke again
“call me jong suk oppa or jong suk ah, or jong suk” he was hoping she would call him oppa e
“but you are not elder to me, why ‘oppa’ ?” so eun asked, she was a little slow to grasp such things as expected, but jong suk was a little upset that she didn’t call him oppa yet, he pushed his disappointment aside and tried to convince her saying
“can’t you call me oppa without any particular reason ?” being the nice girl who barely rejects people’s reuests, so eun accepted as she called him
“arasso jong suk oppa” he was happy to hear that, he knew she said that because he insisted on calling him that, but her calling is good
“now I am happy, I have forgiven you now” jong suk said earning a laugh from so eun at the playful attitude he has, he is just behaving the way woo bin does so eun thought,
“so why did you call me ?” she asked
“oh, are you free this weekend ? I would like to take you to some place” he asked
“this weekend ?” she was surprised by his sudden request
“why do you want to take me with you oppa ?” she asked
“because you are my chingu” he said, it was an important day for him, a day where he always wanted to spend time with his friends, woo bin and shin hye, but a few years things have changed, and the present situation he was in it would only hurt him to see woo bin and shin hye come hand in hand and wish him happy birthday. He doesn’t want that. He wanted to spend time with so eun, get to know her better
“oh, is there any occasion oppa ?” so eun asked as she wondered what that might be
“it’s my birthday so eun ah, I want to invite you” hearing the happy news so eun immediately accepted thinking there was no reason for her not to wish him on his birthday
“arasso oppa, I will come , just tell me place and time”
“I will come and pick you up, it’s Saturday” jong suk said happy that so eun accepted his request and hung up the phone.

“what is taking so long for so eun to come ?” woo bin hissed as he closed the car door behind him and took steps into the house again.
“arasso oppa, I will come, just tell me place and time” he heard so eun talking to someone with a smile. Oppa ? is it hyun joon ? woo bin wondered as he waited for her call to finish. Finishing her call she turned around to see woo bin waiting leaning at the door
“from how long are you here ?” she asked, eavesdropping, not a good thing to do, did he do that again like the one in Hawaii with se ra ?
“who is it you are talking to ?” he questioned her with an equal tone irritated at the fact that she made him wait and now she was questioning him in return
“none of your business ” she said angrily, him asking that implies, he did hear her conversation but did not reveal his presence before she saw him, and hearing others conversations in secret is wrong, her teacher instincts said
“well, it is since you made me wait there in the car for a while” woo bin said and that is when so eun realized it has been a while she was on phone and forgot that woo bin was waiting for her, feeling guilty she immediately apologized
“I am sorry woo bin sshi, I forgot being in the call”  now you realized it, what a slow poke, woo bin thought as he said
“never mind, come let’s leave” he said and turned back, so eun followed him and as they both exited and walked towards the car only to see the hood of the car got damaged and was standing and their side mirror was broken and fallen on groung, woo bin hurried to the car and seeing its condition he hissed angrily
“what the hell” while woo bin was throwing tantrums on how his beautiful car was damaged, so eun found a note sticked to the other said saying
I am sorry
I was in a hurry and crashed your car
please call me and I will pay for the damages

and attached to them was some strangers name and phone number
“woo bin sshi, see this” and handed that paper to woo bin, reading that woo bin calmed down thinking there was nothing much to do, he said
“let’s go”
“how ?” so eun asked since there was no car now
“maybe we can take a bus to our neighborhood  and then walk ” woo bin said, as he saw a bus stop a few lanes away from where they were while they were coming to new house
“like this ?” so eun asked
“why is there a problem ?” he asked as he didn’t get what she meant by that
“I mean, you are a celebrity, and if people recognize you walking on streets it will be difficult for you right ?” so eun said, she remembered how jong suk explained to her the difficulties of being a celebrity, and how much more it was difficult for woo bin being much popular, woo bin forgot that point for an instant and felt thankful that she remembered that, the note flashed into his mind, maybe she really came with a blessing, if it were not her, he might have been in the car while it got crashed and he may have had injuries and also now, she reminded him of what could happen, but what to do? He is wearing a plain jacket today and how could he disguise himself now ? while he was wondering, so eun already thought of a solution, she pulled the woolen scarf she was wearing and wrapped it against woo bin’s neck and pulled it up so that it covers his nose and mouth, and then she asked
“do you have any glasses woo bin sshi ?” nodding to her he pulled out the glasses from his pocket and gave her, so eun put the glasses on him, as if she was decorating a mannequin, and he stood there like a mannequin while she adjusted his scarf once more
“it’s done, I hope you cannot be identified now” so eun as she looked at him
“thanks” woo bin said and they both started walking, a few minutes and they both were at the bus stop waiting for bus to come, a few buses has come and passed by and woo bin didn’t know why they didn’t board any of them
“are you sure we were correct in not boarding those buses ?” he asked so eun, he really have very little knowledge about buses, he might have not travelled one for long, so eun thought as she laughed a little and replied
“trust me woo bin sshi, I know which bus we have to take” so eun assured him, woo bin just nodded, and as they waited the bus they has to board came, so eun pressed her card to the scanning device attached to the bus’s rod and took two tickets, and proceeded to take a seat, she took as seat beside the window and woo bin took the seat next to her. As they passed various streets one thing caught so eun’s eye, the street food, it has been a while since she ate there, she wanted to try it but couldn’t having to have dinner together everyday. As the bus reached the destination, both of them got down, but woo bin didn’t miss the stare so eun was giving the street food as they walked, they already passed two vendors, he knew there was another vendor in the locality where they will pass, as they both approached them woo bin said
“do you want to try this ?”
“but ommonim, she will be waiting to have dinner with us”  so eun said, she couldn’t possibly eat both at the places, maybe she can try next time so eun thought
“don’t worry, I will explain it to mom, have whatever you want” woo bin said assuring her, she seemed to like this food so much he thought
“really ?” so eun asked him for conformation and he nodded with a smile, gaining his approval so eun took fast steps towards the ajhumma and said
“ajhumma, give me a plate of spicy rice cakes and also four fish cakes” she said as she looked at the delicious food and took a seat on one of the benches and called woo bin
“woo bin sshi, do you want to try ?”
“no, I don’t eat them, I don’t like it” woo bin said as he never tried
“did you try them at least once ?” so eun asked and woo bin shook his head
“come on woo bin sshi, if you haven’t tried them how will you know if you like them or not” so eun said trying to convince him, yesterday even he didn’t try the cookies, he is missing on so much delicious food she thought. She has a point, woo bin decided to try them, he walked towards her and took a seat across her, understanding that he accepted to try so eun said to the ajhumma
“ajhumma, one more place of spicy rice cakes” since there were not many customers at that point of time, or them having an early dinner, woo bin pulled the scarf down and removed his glasses, soon the ajhumma got their food to her table and said
“please enjoy it, you both look very good together” her comment gained a soft blush on both of their cheeks but they didn’t know yet what it was, so eun immediately started digging in her food, catching a fish cake stick in one hand and having its bites in between while eating the rice cakes, seeing her woo bin smiled at her  fondness of that food and took a bite, and found them delicious the way she said, they were different from home made food but are equally great. both of them ate their hot food enjoying in the cold climate. After they finished they paid the ajhumma and started walking towards home again.

“so eun ah, woo bin ah, get fresh and come down for dinner” elder mrs.kim called them as she saw them entered the house
“omma, we already had our dinner today, you and abeoji carry on without us” woo bin informed his mother as he took the stairs, so eun bowed to her and then followed woo bin into their room. The elder kim smiled at their disappearing figues glad that they both are spending time together.
