Foolish Fate

| FOUR |

One of the most awaited parts. （≧∇≦）

I sat amongst the crowd calmly waiting for the entrance of the bride.

I have to admit, I feel jealous towards them. When will I ever get the chance to walk down the aisle?

I shook of what I was thinking when the bride started to enter.

"I do."

"You may now kiss the bride." Everybody cheered when Luhan immediately kissed Nara. Everyone applauded for the newly wed.

I went near my son and together we went directly into the reception. It wasn't time for dinner yet but I went early to make sure everything is okay, after all this resort is still under my responsibility.

30 minutes from now the reception dinner will start. I went to the restroom and left Joohyuk with my parents.

I retouched my light make up and started to head out.

"Oh! I'm sorry." A guy said bumping into me.

"Its okay." I started to walk away with even glancing to the man. That voice seems so familiar. I looked back to see he was gone, maybe he went inside the rest room.

I sat down on a table with some friends, Joohyuk, my brother and my parents were sitting in another table.

I was really worried whether Joohyuk was doing okay with my parents so I texted them. I felt really anxious for their reply, so I kept looking at my phone.

"Sorry, I'm late, I just went into the rest room." It was that voice, it was the same from the man awhile ago.

"Aniya, Minseok come sit here." Mi—Minseok? I almost choked on air.

I raised my head to find the Minseok, the man who I loved more than my own life, the same man who was my first heart break.

I finally got to see that everybody on this table were my high school friends. I can't believe this, I need to talk to Nara and Luhan about this later, they will get beat up for sure.

One by one, they started greeting each other. Of course, I have to do too. Before even making eye contact with him the MC started to announce the entrance of the newly wed. Everybody stood up and applauded. We sat down and the MC started to play some games about them.

Food was being served while MC kept talking. People started to have conversations and some tried to talk to me.

"So, Minseok, what have you been into lately?" Said one of our friends. I don't know if he recognized me yet or not. Everybody looked at Minseok so did I.

"Nothing much, still the same, architecture stuff." He laughed it off. I don't know why I feel so much resentment towards him right now, I thought I was over it. I have to admit he looks amazing, maybe I'm feeling this because he lived a life better than me, he never worried because of a child, he wasn't scared when holding a baby for the first time, he lived a life where he could make his dreams come true. While, I, I had to give up my dreams. Now, my only dream is for Joohyuk to live a life better than mine.

"Joomi, Jung Joomi, your phone's been ringing." Minseok said.

I froze, that was the same voice that I loved, the same voice that made me had nightmares. "Sorry, sorry." I bowed as I took my phone. For sure everybody was looking at me staring blankly into space. I answered and spoke with the smallest voice I could. Well that was embarrassing, why did he have to tell me? Aish.

"Yeoboseyo? Jun?"

"Hello? Joomi noona. Joohyuk keeps refusing to eat. I can't do anything about it, eomma's been trying to feed him for minutes now."

"Okay, I can't walk over there right now, can you put him on the phone?"

"Okay, Hyuk-ah, I called your eomma talk to her." I heard from the other line.

"Joohyuk? Is this you?"

"Ne, eomma where are you I want to go to right now." He said.

"I'm sorry baby, I can't go there right now. You know where I am right now, right? Just wait till the party's over I'll go there as fast as I could."

"Okay, you promise?"

"Of course, I promise." I said.

"Bye now, love you." I ended the call to see Minseok staring at me. It was making me down right uncomfortable.

"Who was that? Joomi? Are you married and you didn't tell us?" The former class clown, Jongdae, told me.

"Eh!!" Everybody and the table looked at me. I looked at Minseok's direction accidentally and I found him looking down on his plate.

"Anii, that was —" I was cut when the couple arrived.

"Congratulations." Were thrown here and there.

I stood up, to congratulate the couple.

"Yah! Why did you let me sit here huh?" I whispered to them.

"We're sorry, we didn't know. That organizer did this." Nara said.

I scoffed, and finally sat down.

I really want the reception to be over now. I keep on glancing to Minseok by accident.

FINALLY! The planned program was done. I stood up and bowed to everyone.

"I have to go now. I'll see you all soon." I said.

"Why too excited to meet your husband?" Jongdae said.

"Stop that." I said and smiled to leave. I met up with my parents and surprised to see little Joohyuk sleeping in my brother's arms.

"I'm sorry appa, I didn't know that I wasn't going to sit with you." I took Joohyuk and carried him myself.

"Ani, its okay, after all it was fun." My mom said.

"Okay, let's go to our rooms now."

As I said earlier, these two friends of mine are really famous and rich. They rented the whole resort so that guests can sleep tonight and go home tomorrow.

My family and I sleep in a part of the resort made for us. These rooms are separated from the customers.

I laid Joohyuk in the bed and changed his clothes. I already texted Nara that Joohyuk needs to rest.

I went and changed and sat on the bed. I looked at my son, I have to say, they really look like each other no matter how I try to deny it

Should I tell him? I mean this is the chance to give my son the father he's been missing all these years.

No, no, NO! What am I thinking!? What if he already has a family? What if he doesn't want Joohyuk? Why would I let him know? He, he never cared for us anyway, that's how its going to be. A little faint memory that was all in the past.

I lied down and hugged Joohyuk to sleep.

The next morning, I woke and changed my clothes, a casual blouse with some appropriate shorts. I may like fashion, but I know how to dress myself properly.

I called my parents on the phone and told them to get ready for breakfast. Joohyuk also woke up and changed. We don't usually eat in the food lounge with the customers, but just for today since it is a private event.

Me and Joohyuk went to the lounge to wait for my parents and Jun. It was a buffet so I had to get the food for both of us. I let Joohyuk sit down and at that moment Jun arrived. I asked him to stay with Joohyuk while I get his food.

I saw some of the guests from yesterday and greeted them. I was talking to Luhan's parents, surprised to see Kim Minseok entering the lounge. I was looking at him as if I saw ghost.

"Joomi? Joomi?" Luhan's mom said.

"Ne." I said trying not to act distracted.

"We'll be going now, see you soon." I bowed to them and quickly turned around.

Announcement: I will probably update again next week! Kay bye!
