Tomboy and Me / nam woohyun (#9)

Episode 10

JiHyuk

I was wondering where my twin sister is at. She said that she would be arriving soon, I don't know if she is wearing a dress or not. Hyung and I have told her to appear with a dress, I don't know if she heeded our advice. If not, Appa is going to be very angry.

"Jihyuk, can you go check on Woohyun?? He is taking quite a while to go to the washroom. Who knows if he had escaped??" Appa told me. He is indeed taking a very long time, what is he doing??

"Ne, Appa...." I stood up and went to the back of the restaurant where the washroom is at. As I came closer to the back of the washroom step by step, I heard a commotion between two people, a guy, and a girl. What is with these people?? Can't they find somewhere to argue?? I know that couples nowadays love attention but really...

"Stop arguing you two and show some respect for people dining at this restaurant!!" I pushed the two apart.

The guy was pulling the girl's hair and the girl was also doing the same to the guy. I had to stop them. The girl tidied her hair and that revealed her face. "Babo dongsaeng??" 

"Oppa......" Ji Na hid behind my back once she knew that the person that stopped her was her twin brother.

"This guy is so bad, he pulled me by the hair. Why is he doing here?? I thought that the restaurant was reserved for today." Since when did she become so whiny??

"She's your sister??? Seriously?" The guy that was introduced as Mr. Nam and Mrs. Nam's only son, Nam WooHyun said. Did they perhaps know each other??

"Yea, he's my brother so he is allowed to be here but you... you are definitely not allowed to be here unless you are--" She stood in front of me.

"Yes, he is the family that we are meeting with. He is the Nam family's son, Nam Woohyun." I told Ji Na who is still confused by the whole situation.

"He??? The Nam Family??" She pointed fingers at him. 

"Yes, you are Mr. Joo's daughter?? You seriously don't look like one with the leather jacket, you looked more like a gangster's daughter."

"Yah!!" She yelled at Nam Woohyun.

"Please don't fight, our parents are all waiting for us." I broke them apart again.

"Luckily you are there to stop this tomboy, hyung." He straightened his attire and went back. As soon as he is out of my sight, I immediately turned to Ji Na who is trying to escape away from my deadly clutch.

"Joo Ji Na..." I said.

"Yes, my dearest oppa??" I put her into a headlock.

"You are Joo Jung Hoon's dearest daughter and you have already offended his long-time friend's only son, how would you explain this?? How would his parents think about our family??"

"Mianhae oppa, I didn't mean it. I didn't even know that his family was the one that we are meeting today. Sorry..." I can see that she is telling the truth, she is not lying. It is a 100% truth.

"I know that you didn't mean it, I forgive you." I released her.

 I looked at her clothes. "You haven't changed into a dress??"

"Yea... I was going to change into it when I bumped into him. Just wait for me, I will be done in a while."

"No need for that, just wear whatever you are wearing right now." I took her by the hand and walked back to the others.

Ji Na

I kept my head low while walking back all the way to where the others are sitting at. I hope that they aren't that mad at me as I was the one that made them wait for the past 10 minutes.

"Ji Na is here now..." Oppa said and went back to his seat which made me more awkward than I already am.

"So you are Jung Hoon's little girl right??" A man's voice said. He must be Nam Woo Hyun's father. I know that I am his daughter but I hated people calling me little girl. I am 21, not a 10-year-old girl for goodness sake.

I bowed. "Annyeonghaseyo, my name is Joo Ji Na!!"

"Ji Na, what a nice name... Don't just stand there and take your seat." The lady said. She must be Nam Woohyun's mother. She seemed so nice, unlike that jerk. I looked at the seats, I took my seat beside Appa.

"Is the traffic very congested??" He said. I nodded.

"Of course if you came here with a car, it is always that congested at this time." Mrs. Nam said. I just laughed. I bet that she doesn't know that I have a motorbike instead of a chauffeur driving me.

"Ji Na ssi, you are very pretty you know. Must be from your mother's good looks right??" She said. Why is she is talkative?? Just like a certain someone.

"Where do you study?? I heard from your father that you studied at the same university as our Woohyun. How are you coping with your studies??"

"Still okay..." I gave her an 'ok' sign with my hands.

"Alright, let's get down to business." Appa suddenly said. I wonder what is he going to say...

"We are not here for some random chit-chat session but for some serious business. The reason why we are here is to fulfill an important promise made 21 years ago." I think that I am going to fall asleep listening to his long-winded speech. I wonder what promises that they have made. Is it an arranged marriage?? I hope that it isn't.

"The two of us met in university and were two very good friends. We promised to do many things together including marrying our loved ones at the same time, on the same day. We were very united and we made an important promise one fateful day."

"We decided to let our children marry each other when they reached a marriageable age which is now."What is Appa trying to say?? Quickly say!!

Appa took my hand and Mr. Nam took Nam WooHyun's hand and raised at the same time.

"We decided to engage Ji Na and Woohyun to an arranged marriage!!!" The two fathers said in unison.

"What???" Nam Woohyun and I said in unison.
