Epilogue

Jennie

After many months of waiting and torture, Jisoo finally got a job and is now organizing the move to our home. As she is facing a 10-hour car journey, I decided to take a week off to come help her and go home with her.

I can't believe that we are finally going to realize our dream of living together and sharing our daily lives, the good and bad moments.

Although there are still some insecurities left, for example, what if Jisoo gets sick of me? Or will she get tired? There are times when I think about it and feel scared, at the same time as I try to work through these issues because Jisoo gives me no reason to believe that this happens.

1 year and a few months later and she continues to act as she always did: romantic and passionate, without fear of talking and showing what she feels.

"Chu, I think we need to talk about some things before making this change official." I say while stroking the back of Jisoo's head while she drives. We are going somewhere to buy organizing boxes.

"What things?" she looks at me quickly with suspicion in her eyes "There's no way you can kick me anymore, I've already resigned, I've already found another job, don't even talk to me about regrets, Jendeukie, deal with it in therapy." I start laughing at Jisoo's little outburst and she shakes her head in denial.

"I think we should talk about expectations for our future because if they're different, we need to think of a way to deal with them and work with them, understand?"

"Oh, yes, if that's the case, that's fine with me." She shrugs and continues laughing. "About what?"

"First of all, do you want to have children?"

"You want?" the redhead answers me and I roll my eyes.

"I asked first."

"Look, I'm poor, I barely have enough money, I don't want to have a child to spend the money I don't have. I want to use my money to spend on you." she says with some uncertainty and I just nod my head in agreement "It's your turn to say what you think."

"No, I don't want." I start to think about the topic "I don't have that maternal spirit and I agree with you, I want to spend the money with us, traveling, seeing places, restaurants."

"Oh what a relief, have you ever thought if you wanted to?"

"Chu, I already told you that I don't get along very well with children."

"You're a doctor."

"Yes, and I don't like the pediatrics area exactly because I don't have the patience and the way to deal with them, it's very irresponsible to have a child just to play house with and not take care of them properly." I say seriously.

"I agree with you." Jisoo nods her head "How will the accounts payable be divided?"

"We can make it proportional by taking x percentage of each person's income to allocate to the bills, what do you think?"

"Let's put it on paper so it won't be unfair to anyone."

"I don't mind paying more, Chu, I know my condition and it's unfair of me to demand that you pay the same as me."

"Thanks, I'm glad you know that you're going to live with a poor woman." She gives a cocky smile and I roll my eyes.

"Do you want to take a day out of the week to do something just for us? Just you and me?"

"Yes, for me it could be more days, but just one is a start." her cocky smile turns mischievous and I start laughing.

"Idiot." I lightly slap her on the back of the head "Division of household chores?"

"I like separating clothes to wash."

"You put the clothes to wash, I hang them out and collect them, I can wash the dishes too because I know you don't like it."

"That's fine by me, we'll adjust the other details according to our routine." Jisoo's tone is excited and I let out a sigh when I see her so excited about making plans "How many times a year are we going to travel? National or international travel?"

"I think we can travel 2 or 3 times a year, one of them being international." I go back to patting Jisoo, who even seems to soften a little when she feels the affection.

"Yes ma'am."

"Is there a lot left to pack?" I say with a yawn.

"No, a few things." for some reason, she keeps staring at one of the buildings "Look, a registry office."

"So what?"

"You always said you wanted to get married only when we were already living together, right?" She stops the car for some pedestrians to cross the lane and watches me.

"Yes, why would I marry you if we were in different cities?" I roll my eyes.

"Let's get married?"

"Now?" I look at her with complete surprise at this idea that doesn't even seem that absurd.

"Yes, we're going to live together, why not get married?" Jisoo turns around and enters the car in the registry office parking lot "And if we do this here, Chaelisa can be the bridesmaids, you know I always wanted them to be our bridesmaids." she pouts.

"Are you sure?" I stare at her as she finishes parking the car and Jisoo turns to me "We don't even have wedding rings."

"We can resolve this later, what really interests me is whether you want to marry me." she says with conviction and that passionate glow lighting up her eyes.

"Did you forget who asked who?" I raise one of my eyebrows challenging her.

"No, that's why I'm saying it now: will you marry me? Now is the time." Jisoo says without looking away.

"Yes." I say without hesitation and she continues staring at me.

"I'll call Chaelisa." that huge smile is on his face, making me smile too.

"Are they free?" I try to check the time on my watch.

"It's lunch time, besides, they've also agreed to be bridesmaids, they have nowhere to run." Jisoo laughs softly "It's the price they'll pay for being my friends."

"We're crazy, aren't we? To get married like this?"

"We can have a party afterwards, invite friends and family if you want, but I think this kind of madness suits us well."

"Why?" She looks at me again when she hears me.

"Crazy, passionate and incurable romantics." Jisoo smiles widely "This will be our life from now on, my Jendeukie."
