39: Marry me

A MONTH LATER

"Finally. My graduation is over, I have a loving boyfriend and Joy is married to Yeonjun." Nabi cheered while standing beside Jimin, eating cupcakes.

"Well, there is something still left," Jimin said and Nabi frowned at him. "What?" She asked but suddenly Tzuyu came to them.

"The bride will throw the bouquet now. Nabi, let's go!" She cheered pulling her away from Jimin. She frowned but shook her head.

"No, I am eating now. I don't want to." She whined. Winter came beside Tzuyu and smiled at her. "Everyone is doing this, Nabi. Let's go. You cannot miss out." Winter said and winked at Tzuyu who nodded her head.

Both of them snatched the cupcake from her and held her hands and dragged her to the crowd. Jimin chuckled at her but quickly walked away.

"But I don't want to," Nabi whined. "Shut up and stand there!" Yeonjun glared at her. She pouted and crossed her arms and stood among the crowd.

"I am throwing!" Joy said and Nabi not knowing what to do simply raised both of her hands and shut her eyes.

"Here we go!" Joy screamed and after a few seconds, Nabi felt something in her hands. She opened her eyes to see Joy, right in front of her, holding the bouquet up to reach her hands.

Nabi frowned at her but held the bouquet. "Congratulations, Nabi!" She said but Nabi blinked her eyes trying to process whatever is happening.

Suddenly Joy moved back and Nabi saw Jimin walking towards her. He knelt on one knee and opened a ring box. Nabi gasped at the sight and she looked at him.

"It was not love at first sight for either of us. You thought of me as an arrogant, insincere, wicked man which I still am. But I thought of you as a strong and angelic lady who cares for everyone around her, who can easily make anyone fall for her.

Romance was out of the question for us. But we started with something even greater, friendship. We simply enjoyed each other's company so much that we could not stay away from each other.

I have never been a man next to flirting, chatting or relationships by all means. But spending time with you was always easy for me.

Your laughter brings me joy, sadness aches my heart. Everything about you concerns me and affects me in every way and that is when I realized that I didn't want to be just friends with you. I wanted to be with you.

You were the one whom I wanted to kiss, to keep in my arms, to ever protect, and to ever love with everything I have. You're kind, smart, funny, beautiful and the best person I know. Be mine, Nabi. Share my life with me. Marry me."

Nabi started crying and Jimin smiled at her. She extended her hand to him. He got up and slid the ring across her finger. She chuckled and leaned forward to kiss him which he instantly returned. Everyone started clapping for them. Jimin hugged her and she buried her face in his chest.

"Woah! That took quite some time." He said, letting out a deep exhale. "I didn't say yes yet," Nabi mumbled to his chest.

"You put the ring on. That means yes." He said, stroking her hair, not caring about others. "Say to me that you love me." He demanded and she chuckled in his embrace.

"What?" She questioned and he scrunched his nose, placing his chin on her head. "Be good to me, okay?" He asked of her to which she nodded her head.

"I love you, Nabi-ah," Jimin confessed, kissing her head. "I love you more, Jimin-ie." She said.

AFTER A FEW DAYS

Jimin's father was seated in the top middle of the table. Nabi was sitting beside Jimin on the right side of his father.

Nabi's uncle, aunt, and Sehun were sitting on the opposite side, facing Nabi and Jimin. Jimin looked around and smiled to ease the tension.

"I'm getting married to this girl, Father. Isn't she pretty?" Jimin said stroking her hair and her eyes widened.

Jimin's father squinted his eyes at them. "I'll make sure you have grandchildren soon," Jimin said and smiled at his father while Nabi choked on the air.

She started coughing vigorously and Jimin caressed her back gently before handing her the glass of water. "What?" She asked and he looked at her in concern. "Are you alright?" He questioned.

She looked at Jimin in disbelief until he spoke again. "How many kids did you say you wanted? Two? Three?"

"What?" Sehun asked and Uncle and Aunt winked at Jimin. "No..." She began but was interrupted by Jimin.

"A daughter and a son, right?" He asked and Nabi coughed more. "They are your parents?" Jimin's father sternly asked her pointing toward her uncle and aunt. She stopped coughing and sat up straight.

"No, sir. They are my uncle and aunt. He is my cousin. My parents passed away when I was a child." Nabi said and felt Jimin locking their hands under the table. She smiled at him and he did the same. 

"Why do you think an orphan like you should get to marry my son?" Jimin's father said and Jimin snapped.

"Father, you cannot say that to her. I love-"
"Because I'm good at finding my place. And I am very sure that my place is with him." Nabi interrupted Jimin.

Jimin's father had a straight face and nodded his head. "What do you like about my son?" He asked her again.

"Well, he is handsome and smart. Also has a good personality." Nabi said to his father and he raised an eyebrow not believing her words. She sighed before admitting. "He is an arrogant, egoistic, haughty, evil, and wicked man. Also, he is a crazy jerk." She said honestly and everyone gasped except Jimin's father.

He looked at her sternly but then suddenly started laughing at her remark. "You are right. He is crazy. Sometimes even I wonder how did I manage to have a crazy son like him. He is a self-opinionated and cocky brat. I like this girl, Jimin. You chose a lovely lady." He said while laughing.

Jimin started smiling with him and turned around to glare at Nabi who gave him a smug look and shrugged her shoulders. Meanwhile, Uncle, Aunt, and Sehun were controlling their laughter. 

"As long as he is happy. I don't have any problem with it. I'm fine with this marriage." Jimin's father said looking at Uncle and Aunt. Jimin and Nabi exchanged gazes and nodded in unison. Then Sehun suddenly broke the silence by saying.

"So when is the wedding? I have to buy a suit for my sister's wedding."
