"Talks with the family"

When Hyun Bin arrived at their house. All of them are seated in the dinning area waiting on him.

Yejin is silent as she trying to absorb what she learned earlier. She didn't notice his arrival. Eun Byeol is looking at her from a far and she let out a deep sigh.

"I'm here..." Bin said. "Have a seat, son..." Na ra said. Bin smile and greet Yejin's parents. Jin Yeong and Young jun return a smile on him.

Bin look to Yejin who still spacing out while seated next to her mother. He sit infront of her.

Mr. Hyun seated on the center of the long table. The maids started to serve them some Korean cuisines, wine and water. The elder have a friendly conversation while Bin still looking to Yejin trying to guess what's going on with her. She's been silent the whole time and never eat her food.

"Eun Byeol... Is there something happen?" He asked. Eun Byeol didn't speak and drink her water. "Yej is a bit odd tonight... She's silent the whole time." He asked and return his eyes to Yejin.

"I have some important announcement to make that's why I invited you all to have dinner with me tonight." Mr. Hyun said.

Yejin is still looking at her food while all of them including Bin are looking to his grandfather.

"Before Jin Hoon passed away, we made an agreement to strengthen the bond between our families. We do promise to stick on our agreement." Mr. Hyun said. Mr. Hyun look at the two. "As my respect to my late friend, I will stick on what we agreed that day." He added.

"Then what is it, Halabeoji?" Bin asked. Yejin look at him but she immediately return her gazed on her plate.

Mr. Hyun look to his grandson. "You and Yejin will get marry before this year end." He said.

Yejin close her eyes as she heard it clearly and loudly while Bin got shocked on what he heard.

"What?" Bin asked. Na ra look at his son. "Eomma, why Halabeoji saying something ridiculous?" He said. "Bin.." Na ra said.

Hyun Bin look at them. "Are you serious?" He said. "You think I am joking right now, Bin?" Mr. Hyun said.

Bin look to Son's family and his eyes landed to Yejin.

"No!" He said and stood up.

"Bin seat down..." Mr. Hyun said.

Hyun Bin take a deep breath before he speak. "Halabeoji... This is unfair! You decide on our future without having our consent." He said.

Yejin expect his reaction but at the same time she's still feel the pain on seeing him how he didn't want to marry her.

She stood up and all of them look at her.

"I'm sorry... I just wanna go home..." She said and she couldn't control her tears and wipe it. She immediately walk fast outside the dining area.

Bin is loooking at her.

"Excuse us..." Jin Yeong said as she stood up and follow her daughter.
