Arranged Marriage || 55

[ - sophia - ]

The next day, Joshua and I was able to go on with our plan. It has been so long ever since we've hung out. I don't really have a day off so we'd rarely see each other. That's why everytime we're in the house, we'd never bring up work related works or even do any unless it's necessary to be finished before work would start

We went out at around 10 AM like that ?? Usually a mall would open up at that time, that's why we went out at that time. It is now 12.30 PM, basically lunch time. He told me he had already reserved a table so we didn't have to worry about not having a place to sit at. You could say he's well prepared. Though, I wonder why we're sitting at a table for 6. I'll ask him later

We sat down and checked the menu provided. After a while we ordered our food.

"Shua ya" I called out to him

"Hm ?? What is it ??" he responded

"Why are we sitting down at a table for six ?? Did you invite someone ??" I asked

"Oh, yes yes I did ! I totally forgot to tell you earlier I'm soooo sorry" he apologized

"But you know them pretty well so you won't feel awkward, trust me" he added

"Oh I see. Alright then" I responded with a smile

We didn't really chat much after that. It's not like we have to talk to each other every 10 seconds anyways so it's not a big deal. Besides, we've literally talked a lot for the past two hours so it's not biggie.

Not too long after that, 3 guys came up to sit with us and when I saw them, I was so surprised to see them.

"OMG--- YOU THREE---" I covered my mouth in shock as it truly has been a while ever since we've seen each other.

"Noona ?!" Chan called out as he was surprised to see me too

"Hyung ! You didn't tell me Sooyoung's gonna be here !" Seungkwan whined

"Sooyoung !! Omg it's been a while !!" Seokmin said excitedly

We lowkey ignored Joshua's existence there. I mean, you can't blame us ! It has truly been a while ever since I've seen them ESPECIALLY Lee Chan. The last time I saw him was my graduation year. 3 years have passed ?? Oh goshhhh. He have grown a lot but he still looks identical !

"As much as I love seeing the four of you catching up with your lives, please order up first" said Joshua

"Oh lord I totally forgot about that" said Seungkwan as he immediately called a waiter to hand them a menu.

Shortly after that, they ordered their food and we went back to chatting. Joshua joined in too of course. They are best friends after all

"Noona, when did you know about Shua hyung ??? I mean, you've never met her back in highschool though. Did you two meet through college or work ???" Chan asked me

"Sooyoung's Shua hyung's assistant" said Seokmin

"Oh, I've quit my job as his assistant. I'm working with Jihoon at the moment" I said to him

"Eh ?? You changed your workplace already ??? Why didn't you tell ussss" Seokmin pouted

"Well I thought this hyung of yours would've told you" I shrugged

"Since you're working with Jihoon hyung, are you two maybe y'know. Back together ???" Seungkwan asked in a smug face and I turned to Joshua, confused

"Wait. Did he not tell you ANYTHING ???" I asked them

"Tell us what ???" Seungkwan asked

I turned to Joshua to see him smiling but I know well he's panicked right now

"DEAR. IT'S ALREADY PASSED HALF A YEAR ??????" I looked at him in disbelief

"I FORGOT !" he responded

The three of them were confused

"Wait wait. Dear ???" Seungkwan tilted his head

"Half a year ???" Seokmin also tilted his head

"Are you two dating ???" Chan asked as he was also very confused

I let out of a sigh as I cleared my throat to clear things up for these three.

"Joshua and I have been married for like HALF A YEAR already" I said to them and silence immediately filled the air around us

"WHAT ?!" the three of them said in disbelief

"WHY AM I NOT INFORMED OF IT ?!" Seungkwan asked in disbelief

"THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE MY QUESTION !" said Chan

"Why didn't you two tell us !" Seokmin whined

"I thought this hyung of yours have already told you, that's why I've NEVER said a word about it. Like the three of you are really close so I ASSUMED he ALREADY did tell ALL of his friends." I said as I glared at him

"I've been busy what did you expect !!! It's not easy being a CEO what do YOU know !" Joshua whined

"Hey ! I'd come back home later than you almost EVERYDAY and I still remembered to hit up my friends to tell them I'm married ! Heck, I even told them that I'm bearing YOUR child !" I crossed my arms

"YOU'RE PREGNANT ???" the three of them asked in unison

"I am, 3 weeks already" I replied

"Omg congrats !!!" they congratulated me

"Thank you" I simply thanked them

"Judging from their question, you probably didn't tell any of them yet huh" I said as I squinted my eyes

"Sorry,,,,," he uttered

I then let out of a sigh

"C'mon now, it's not a big deal. I wasn't expecting you haven't told them since they're like your bestest friends and I'm PRETTY SURE you guys have a group chat of your own circle. This is like a serious matter too so you have to at least tell them about it" I sighed

"U-understood,,,," Joshua responded

"Okay that aside, let's talk on where we left off" I said to them and that's what we decided to do.

The day went on very smoothly and I had such a great time with them. After lunch, Chan tagged along with Shua and I. Seungkwan and Seokmin oppa weren't able to do so since they have their own works so yeah. Chan's free so he wanted to tag along. Of course Shua and I were happy about it. Besides, it's been a long time anyways.

Hoping my life would continue on like this till the end...
