"I disagree!" Jongin said sternly.
"Which clause are you unsatisfied with? We can still adjust it according to your condition." Soo Kyung took the contract and a pen out ready to change it.
"It's not that." Soo Kyung looked at him in disbelief. "I refuse to sign it." He took the contract from her and put it on the table. He held her shoulder and made her sit down. He kneeled down in front of her while holding her hands tightly although she tried to escape from it. "Don't you ever have a moment when you loved me? Not even a little?"
"You already know the answer to it. Stop wasting your time, Jongin... You deserve someone better." She put his hand aside and stood up. Jongin hugged her from the back.
"What if I said that I only want you as my wife? Shin Soo Kyung, I love you so much... Much more than you thought..." Jongin confessed desperately begging her not to give their marriage up.
"Even if your wife doesn't know how to love you back?" Jongin turned her around to face him.
"Give me 3 months. Give me a chance to teach you how to love, okay? But you have to cooperate with everything that I plan. Deal?"
"Alright, I'll give you 3 months but I don't want to give you false hope. If after 3 months, I still can't get rid of my trauma of love, we'll get a divorce." Jongin nodded.
And with that, Mr. Jongin will tutor his wife, Soo Kyung about love.
~~~
"Let me send you to the office." Jongin offered after they finished their breakfast. Soo Kyung gave the car key to him and got into the passenger's seat. Jongin also got into the driver's seat. He went closer to Soo Kyung making her lean to the seat. He fastened her seatbelt and went back to his seat then fastened his seatbelt. "Alright, we're good to go now." Soo Kyung turned towards the window.
'Calm down, heart! You almost jump out! Aish, why is he so good at this?!!!' Soo Kyung monologued by herself while holding her red face. Little did she know, Jongin was peeping at her and chuckled at how cute she was.
Jongin stopped the car right in front of the building. He went out of the car quickly and opened the door for her. He wasn't wearing any mask or cap so many people from the crowd recognized him and took pictures of the married couple. She was shy and hide her face in his chest.
"Haven't you got used to being EXO's Kai's wife?" He smiled and patted her head. Soo Kyung slapped his hand away and repaired her hair. She walked inside the building but Jongin pulled her hand back towards him. He kissed her forehead and whispered in her ear, "I'll pick you up after work later so wait for me, okay?"
The scene made the people who were watching them earlier scream like crazy. Soo Kyung walked inside quickly because of embarrassment. Jongin laughed and went inside the car.
~~~
"Looks like someone has changed her mind..." Soo Kyung who was busy with her work raised her head to the voice. As expected, it was her only friend, San. Without being invited, he sat on the couch in Soo Kyung's office. She went toward her best friend.
"I noticed that the frequency of you stopping by my office in a week is increasing drastically. Is your company going to close down soon?" Soo Kyung made fun of him.
"Isn't it because you always made me worry? Just a few days ago you said you were getting a divorce but this morning the news of your sweet marriage life went on top. Don't forget that this friend of yours is in the industry too." Soo Kyung rolled her eyes.
'It's so hard to be the wife of a famous idol.' She thought. San clicked his fingers in front of her eyes.
"What are you thinking about?" She got back to reality.
"Nothing." She coughed and noticed San was still looking at her. "What?!"
"I'm asking you, are you in love with him?" "No! No way!"
"Woo, relax buddies. Don't deny it yet or you will eat your own words. This is my advice as your only male friend." San leaned back to the couch leaving Soo Kyung to sort out her feelings.
~~~
Soo Kyung walked out of the building and Jongin was already there waiting for her while leaning on the car. She quickly went up to him.
"No need to be so high-profile, can you?" She whispered while watching around.
"I can. Get in the car now." He stood straight and opened the door for her. He went to the driver's seat. He started the car engine and the car started to run on the road away from the building. "How's your day today?" Jongin casually started a conversation.
"Um, good, I guess." She answered eyes still looking at her phone.
"What do you mean by 'I guess'?" "Isn't it your fault? Our news went viral again."
"You mean that?" He chuckled. Soo Kyung looked at him in disbelief but then immediately looked back to her phone, lazy to pick a fight with him. He smiled while looking at her and then focused back on the road.
Soo Kyung looked at the road as she felt that she was having a long journey than usual. "This is not the way to our house. Where are we going?"
"You'll see." Curiosity arouse in her mind. She shove it away and decided to wait for it.
"Let's go, my lady." Jongin offered his hand after opening the door to the passenger's seat. She took his hand and went out of the car. They both walked into an empty restaurant. "Is this enough to be called low-profile?"
"Did you rent this whole restaurant?" "What else? Don't ever underestimate your husband." Jongin winked. She gasped.
"Welcome, Mr. and Mrs. Kim. I'm the one who is in charge to make sure both of you are satisfied and comfortable while dining here tonight. Now, let me bring you to your table." Jongin nodded and they followed the waitress.
Jongin pulled the chair for Soo Kyung to sit and then went to his seat. "Please wait a moment. The food will be served in a minute." The waitress said and went away.
"What's the event that you invited me to dinner tonight?" "Can't I take you out for dinner if there's nothing?"
"It's not that. Just..." "I want to thank you for willing to give me a chance. And you're willing to cooperate with me just like today. I'm happy and I hope you are too. I have one more request for you."
At the same time, the dishes were served. "Thank you." She said as the waitress went away. "Say it." She continued the conversation that was cut just now.
"I hope you can talk to me more. About anything. Your work, your day, how you feel. Share it all with me. I can be your good listener. Can you?" Jongin looked into her eyes full of hope.
"I... I'll try." Jongin smiled.
"Let's dig in." Their first dinner outside went quite well. Jongin led the conversation most of the time but Soo Kyung also made some improvements by keeping the conversations going on. Hope their relationship can stay like this even after 3 months :)
