HIS REPLACED BRIDE

❄️wedding❄️

"Haneul get ready fast it's your sisters wedding not yours " my mom yelled on me as I was taking long to get ready.

"Ya coming"

Today is my elder sisters wedding ,Lee yeji with the business man park jimin.
This marriage is not out of love but of business. They both are forced to get married or atleast it was for my sister.
.
.
.
Yeji unnie was looking really pretty in her wedding gown. Looking at her I too want to get married . Not to get a husband but to wear that pretty dress. Did I tell you am a fashion enthusiast.

She was all done with her makeup and dress. Her long brown locks were tied up into a bun leaving few loose strands at the sides  to give it a more elegant look. But her eyes were gloomy , her smile was faded.

"Unnie are you not happy ?" I asked.

She looked around the room before answering . The make up artist was still standing here packing her makeup kit .

" No just a little nervous"
She said with a weak smile or a fake smile. But her eyes were telling otherwise.

I think she want to speak in private. So I sent the makeup artist out saying I want to spend some time with my sister alone , to have a sister's talk for one last time before she gets married.

As soon as the makeup artist exited our room. Unnie broke into tears . She wanted to tell me something  but it was being hard for her to even form words . That broke she was from inside.
So I just hugged her tightly to tell her that I am with her .

"Unnie if you don't like this marriage tell me I will speak to dad . The marriage is not over yet am sure he won't force you--"

"I love someone whom our family won't accept" she said cutting my sentence.

"Who?"

"Jung hoseok"

"Who is he?....don't tell me.. you mean THE 'JUNG HOSEOK'"

"Hm" yeji hung her head low hearing his name.

"Are you serious the mafia don Jung hoseok"

"Yes" she said in a low voice.

"Why didn't you said this before , then dad won't set you up with this so called business man" she said rolling her eyes on 'bussinessman'.

"It's not easy haneul , our family daughters don't get married to a mafia . Dad will never accept him." Yeji replied  , despair evident in her tone.

"Unnie , let's forget he is mafia or you are going to get married to someone else in an hour. Just tell me do you love Jung hoseok"

"Yesss"

"And about him . Does he love you?"

"More than anything, more than his life"

Saying this she started sobbing again.

"That's more than a reason to call this wedding off unnie!
Did you tell him about this wedding?"

"No. If I did he won't let me get married to someone else . That's the reason I didn't break this news to him. If he comes to know I can't even imagine the mess it would be. Dad will be upset with me---"

Knock ! Knock!...

"Come in " I said.

"Omo my daughter is looking like a real time princess . " My mom cooed hugging unnie . I can see my mom was controlling her tears from rolling down her cheeks.
My mom wiped her tears which rolled from her eyes without her consent before breaking the hug.

"Let's go my dear it's time " she said with a smile .

At the altar :

This wedding was a private one. Though news of this wedding was spread all over the nation , no media was allowed inside to share this event with the world. It was Mr parks request , to hold this wedding in private for some personal reasons.

So it is obvious that there would be barely any guest except the priest, personal photographers who have already signed the agreement not to publish these pics, few family members, lawyers of both parties and offcourse the bride and the groom.
.

.
.
Mr . Lee held his hand for yeji to link with his . Yeji, swallowed a huge lump in her throat and held her dad's hand. Finally her love was coming to an end. She was going to marry someone else betraying the man she dreamt of. Her every advancing step towards the altar were making her heart shatter into millions of pieces.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Everything went in fast forward for yeji now it was time to say their vows . After this she will not be Jung hoseok's lover but park jimins wife.

" Park jimin do you take Lee yeji as your wife "

"I do " jimin replied with no specific emotion in his voice.

" Lee yeji do you take Park jimin as your husband "

"I -I ---"

'Gun shot sound'

The peaceful wedding hall became a chaos. Someone has fired a bullet into the air. No one was aware of  what happened , all were astonished by the sudden firing. Though no one in the hall knew the purpose of this firing but it sure served its purpose. The  wedding has been stopped midway , all eyes were in search of the person who was the cause of this interruption.

"J-JU-JUNG H-HOSEOK" someone exclaimed with fear laced in his voice.

Hearing his name yeji's eyes widened. At this moment she didn't know how to feel about the situation. Either to be happy that her love came to stop her wedding or to be sad for the same .

Hoseok didn't spoke a word, he directly climbed up the altar and pulled yeji with him. Jimin just watched the scene without a word. He felt petrified with sudden involvement of mafia.

"My daughter--" yeji's father tried to speak but Hoseok cut his sentence.

"Sehun handle the situation here while I will be talking to her inside the room . Make sure no one  tries to move from their place " Hoseok ordered his teammate . Then without wasting a second he took yeji to a  room.

--------

Hoseok dragged yeji to a room and locked the door behind him . He let her hand go and leaned himself against the door staring at her intensely. Giving her a chance to explain herself without asking for it.

Yeji was afraid to face him at that moment. She just hung her head low closing her eyes tight , waiting for him to yell at her . Few minutes passed and he didn't even uttered a word. So she raised her head to look at him. She saw him staring back at her .when their eyes met there was no anger in his eyes , they showed only hurt of betrayal. Guilt was eating her out , which broke her into uncontrollable sobs.

"Hoseok --- I -I -- " she cut her own words by sobbing.

He pulled her to his embrace patting her head. " Why you did this love ?"

'love' , she was just about to betray him and he was still referring her as his love. There was no sarcasm , no anger or any harsh feelings in his voice there was just love and only love. In the past too when he was indignant he was always careful while dealing with yeji , he never yelled or said harsh words to her. When it comes to yeji , his self control was at its peaks. That behaviour of him is what she fell for .

But now she wanted him to yell at her , release his anger on her for her betrayal. Seeing him calm demeanor , guilt was eating her out.

"A-am sorry " she mumbled against his chest.

" Is your father the only reason ? " He asked.

"Yes"

"Do you love me ?" He asked this time looking into her eyes.

"Yes , I love you " she said looking into his hopeful eyes.

" Then am ready to kneel down Infront of him and ask for your hand " he said with a assuring smile to her.
