3 Years and Forever [EN- Jay X OC] [EDITING]

Chapter 4: Our House

Later that day, they went back to their resort, already bought souvenirs for their families and ate dinner. Haneul decided to stay out on the balcony, looking at the night sky.

"Hey"

She turned to see Jongseong joined her as he was busy drying his damp hair after a shower.

"What are you looking at?" he followed her gaze. "Constellation. Since we're in the highlands, the stars look so bright!" she smiled.

"Stars" he rephrased. "It's been a long time since I spend some time to look at them"

"Too busy?" "Yea. This supposedly 'honeymoon' is the first ever holiday I had since I was handed the position"

"You're lying" "No seriously."

"That's just so sad to hear. So you're kind of grateful for this 'honeymoon'?" "A bit? But yea I can clear my mind for a while. I guess it's a blessing in disguise"

Haneul smirked in reply.

Their vacation ended and they went straight to their new home. Jongseong watched Haneul stare at every inch of the penthouse in such awe. The house was completely furnished and updated. Their piles of boxes stacked in the hallway.

"I really need to pay you each month, like seriously" she muttered. "This is so big!"

"You don't have to pay me" he crossed his arms with a smile.

"Bro it's a freaking penthouse! I cannot stay here for free!"

"Well... if you insist, I'll let you know the amount"

Haneul went to check out the rooms with him following.

"How do we decide our room?" he asked. "You should decide. It's your place anyway" she replied.

"If that's so..." Jongseong went to the master bedroom. "I'm having this one"

"Then I'll choose this one" she pointed to the room across from his which was a guest room complete with full bathroom.

They walked around to discover two rooms for office and storage as well as a library with a grand piano at the side.

"This is cool!" Haneul gasped as they walked into the library. "I know this place will be your favorite," he chuckled. "You bet!"

They walked out into the hallway to be greeted with

"An indoor greenhouse?!" she ran to the door and opened it to enter the lush bright garden full of plants and various flowers. At the center was a huge pool of water, reflecting light. She kneeled down and touched its surface. "So cold." she murmured.

Jongseong came behind her. "Yasss I can swim every weekend here!!"

"So this is your favorite place?" "Maybe. Or maybe the gym" "We have a gym?"

He turned around and pointed to the gym that can be seen from the greenhouse.

"Believe me I'll never leave this place ever!" she exclaimed excitedly with him chuckling in reply.

"So" they were in the living room again. Jongseong took his place on the sofa of the living room. Haneul turned to him. She was about to pick up her things.

"We need to set some rules in here"

Haneul snorted but eventually sat across from him. "I should agree since I start suggesting the wedding agreement"

"And because this is my house" he stuck out his tongue that she replied with eye rolling in annoyance. After the 'honeymoon', both of them can now joke around with each other.
