Chapter 6 - Friends

Life and Love

Seeing the sight before him, he felt sad for Eun Rae. Not only is she forced to Marry someone she doesn't love but she's also dealing with guilt.

"She's so stupid sometimes, you know" Someone was beside him. It was Im Yoona.

"Wae? How could you say that about your friend?" He asked, quite curios.

"It's true, She's always trying to please her dad, even though she doesn't admit it herself, she does" Yoona said as she observed the two figures infront of her, the two girls who were trying to sound happy but sadness is very hard to hide.

"What..Do you mean? Why are you telling me this?" Nihkhun asked

"Being close to her, I noticed that Lee Eun Rae is a free spirit, she's very optimistic and uh..unique" Yoona chuckled

"You Mean weird? Different? Yeah, I noticed that too" Nichkhun said with a smile "She's very..interesting" He continued

"Yes, Different, Eun Rae is really different from us because she has double personalities, when she's with us, she's that ultra weird girl who seems bright as the sun, she's very full of smiles but as I observed, when she's around her family, specially her father, that girl, the Eun Rae that I know seems to fade away, she turns into a well mannered maniquin of her father" Yoona said, sadness was obvious in her words "She always tries to give her father a reason to be proud of her, even when it means that she has to do things, for example, marrying someone she doesn't like, things that are out of her comfort zone, things that is against her will. she has to do those things just to make her father proud" Yooona continued

"Really? She seems problem-less" Nichkhun stated

"Nichkhun, I know you have someone else in your heart but since you're going to marry my friend, can i ask you something?" Yoona said

"What is it?" He asked

"Can you please make a little space for her in your heart? What I mean is, can you please take care of her? She's very special to me, like a little sister. Atleast, please don't hate her, because when she feels she is hated by someone, she gets depressed" Yoona asked

"S-Sure" Nichkhun agreed 'She must have been going through alot of things before, and now, the marriage, she's facing lots of things, she seems immature and stupid from the first look but after talking with Yoona-ssi, Her image changed'

"This Marriage, will be the greatest thing she will do that is against her will, please do cooperate" Yoona told Nichkhun then walked towards the two girls.

"Oh Unnie, were you here earlier? Oh, Nichkhun-ssi...You look...Decent" Eun Rae said

"Oh Really? Thanks" Nichkhun replied as he looked at the mirror, looking at his own reflection.

"Hmm...It does look good on me" He thought to himself.

"Oh Good, It fits you well? Then, Please proceed in picking out the wedding cake designs" Mrs. Park instructed as she sat down beside her daugther, Nichkhun sat beside Eun Rae while Yoona sat alone on one of the Solo Chairs.

"So, What have you choosen?" Nichkhun asked Eun Rae. She was quite surprised on how he was interested in this, earlier, he was grumbling but now, he's cooperating.

"I picked Cakes that are similar to the theme" Eun Rae replied then showed him 5 pictures of cake designs, none of them pleased him, he looked at other pictures and found one cake design that stood out the most.

"This...This is nice" He said as he picked up the photo then gave it to Eun Rae.

"Hmmm...Decent" Eun Rae said

"This sha-" Nichkhun was cut off by the sound of the bell.

"Good Afternoon, OMONA! You're here?" Xiah Lin came inside followed by In Hoo

"Hello, Mother" Nichkhun stood up then gave her mother a kiss then Eun Rae stood up and bowed

"Umma" Eun Rae said then gave her mom a slight hug.

"Hey Dear, What are you doing?" Her mother asked

"Uh...Wedding things?" Rae answered in an unsure way then Nichkhun chuckled.

"My, You seem to be getting close" Mrs. Horvejkul commented

"Yes, and I see that Nichkhun is wearing his Wedding Tuxedo. I want to see my daughter in her gown, too!!!" Mrs. Lee squeled like a girl. Eun Rae sighed then hung her head low. 'Aish..Mothers' she thought 

"Er..Can't..I have many assignments to do, BYE!" Eun Rae tried to escape and got her bag and was about to exit the boutique when Yoona stopped her.

"We don't have classes tomorrow, and as Far as I'm concerned, Yeon young told me that you have no assignments to do" Yoona said, busting her then Eun Rae gave a nervous laugh.

"Eh..Really? Maybe she fell asleep on that time when the teacher announced it" Eun Rae still tried to make an excuse.

"Last time I checked,Yeon Young doesn't sleep during classes" Junhee said 'No escape' Eun Rae sighed

"Sarah, Have you scheduled the Studio for the Pre-shots?" Mrs. Lee asked

"Yes, It's going to be on Sunday. I was about to tell them" Mrs. Park said, lifting her checklist.

"See Dear? You're schedule is packed, Don't make excuses again, okay? Let's not make Mrs. Park's job a lot harder" Mrs. lee said as she brought her daughter close to her.

"Umma, Honestly, I think I'm not feeling well, I'm kinda sleepy" Eun Rae spoke the truth. 

"In Hoo, you told me earlier that Eun Rae's birthday is going to be tomorrow, right? Why don't we let the kids go home early and we finish their work for today" Xiah Lin suggested then In Hoo looked at her daughter

"I think it's better that way" In Hoo agreed then kissed her daughter's forehead.

"Bye" She said and was about to leave when her motehr stopped her again.

"Eun Rae, when you arrive home, fit your new Hanbok. Before We proceed to your Birthday Party, You're going to pay respect to your grandparents" In Hoo told her daughter.

"Ne Umma" She answered

"Oh and, Nichkhun, Do you have a Hanbok?" In Hoo asked

"Yes, Why?" He asked

"I like you to come with Eun Rae when she visits her grandparents tomorrow. It's a tradition in our family when someone reaches the age of 18, they say thank you to their grandparents and before someone from our family gets married, they have to visit the grandparents too" In Hoo said

"He will come" Xiah Lin said with a smile "And He will drive Eun Rae to your House" She continued then handed him the keys to her car.

"Mom, I have other plans tomorrow" Nichkhun protested 

"Cancel them, you're coming with your wife and you're going to attend her debut tomorrow" Xiah Lin responded then both Nichkhun and Eun Rae went out of the boutique.

Nichkhun was driving the car towards Eun Rae's House silently as Eun Rae was sitting in the front seat, playing with her fingers.

"What time?" Nichkhun asked, breaking the silence

"Huh? Oh..Uh..You don't have to come if you have other plans" Eun Rae answered

"My Mom is going to kill me if I don't" He said bitterly.

"I'm tired of being a puppet" Eun Rae mumbled to herself but Nichkhun heard it. 'Did she just admit of being tired of pretending and pleasing her parents? Did she jsut open up to me?' Nichkhun asked himself  as his eyes widened after hearing what Eun Rae said

"Me too, playing a part of a business game that our Parents play" He said after regaining his composure, venom was dripping in his words.

"That's true but They're our parents. We should follow what they say" Eun Rae told him

"Well, Yeah, that seems true but manipulating our Love Lives? it's out of the question!" He said

"They didn't manipulate mine, They gave me one but I don't like" Eun Rae said, like a little girl then Nichkhun chuckled

"Why do you always laugh at me?" Eun Rae asked

"It's because you always change your mood, it's funny to see you change automatically" Nichkhun said

"Really? I don't seem to notice" Eun Rae said

"Yes, Really...it's kinda amusing to see, a different mood for everyone" He said then Eun Rae finally found an explanation.

"I think I know why I do that, It's because of the difference on how people treat me, I change my mood depending how they treat me" Eun Rae said

" I thought so too" Nichkhun said "Now, I turn a left here, right?" He asked as he pointed at GPRS system on the dashboard

"Yes" Eun Rae answered

"Well, We're here" Nichkhun announced as he stopped the car.

"Thanks, Nichkhun-ssi" Eun Rae said

"Drop the formalities, we're friends now" He said

"Huh?" Eun Rae stared at him in confusion,

"Oh, Please, it doesn't mean we're getting married to each otehr against our will that we also have to hate each other" Nichkhun said "So, What time?" He asked again, this time with a smile on his face.

"Uh..7-ish?" Eun Rae answered then Nichkhun laughed, again.

"Okay, Bye" He said then Eun Rae noticed that she hasn't got out of the car

"Oh, Right. Bye, Friend" Eun Rae said then went out of the car and waved goodbye and went inside her house and went directly to her room.

'He is Nice but Why do I have a weird feeling about him? ' She asked herself
