Tomboy and Me / nam woohyun (#9)

Episode 11

Woohyun

"Are you serious?? An arranged marriage?? The two of us??" I said loudly.

"Yes..." Joo Ji Na's father or what I call Mr. Joo said nonchalantly. Are they even serious about the arranged marriage?? Is this a joke??

"Appa, you can joke about other things but not this. This is seriously not funny at all. I'm getting married to this guy?? Never in my life." Joo JiNa also opposed this marriage. This doesn't even make any sense. Do they even know that we hate each other a lot??

"Honey, I know that you are very angry at this but it is planned from the start exactly 21 years ago when the two of you were infants. We planned this whole thing and now you don't want it?? Joo Ji Na, are you opposing Mr. Nam and my orders??"

She looked at all of us and stood up. "I'm sorry Appa but I really can't agree to this. It is ridiculous." She said to her dad. She got out from her seat and bowed to my parents.

"Sorry for seeing this side of me. I'm really sorry. I'm out of here." She said and left the place. Everyone's mouths were left agap. They never expected that a girl would dare to oppose her father's orders and left in the middle of something important.

"Mr. and Mrs. Nam, I'm sorry for my little sister's actions. Don't blame her too much. She was just too shocked to process everything. Our family will pay for today's dinner. Sorry." The oldest brother of Joo JiNa stood up and apologized.

"It's okay, MinHyuk-ah... We have already predicted that one of them will be like that. It's our fault for not telling the both of them about this beforehand. We will pay for this instead." Omma said to Mr. Joo's eldest child.

"Let's just order and not waste time," Appa said and they opened the menu. Why are they so calm about this?? Aren't the brothers of Joo JiNa supposed to oppose to this strongly??

Don't tell me that they already knew about this and forced their sister to wear a dress to impress me and my parents. That's why she had to wear a dress even though she hated it so much. How can they do this to her???

I stood up slamming the table, making all of them stare at me. "Are you guys even serious?? She ran away and you are just sitting figuring what to eat at this time." I said referring to Mr. Joo.

"And you as brothers, you guys should be worried about your sister marrying someone that she didn't even know and you just went along with them. How can you guys..." I then vented my anger towards the Joo brothers.

"Omma, Appa... How can you bribe me saying that I can get a new car if I agreed?? You guys are too much... You know what, I'm out of here. Eat whatever you want." I ran out of the restaurant.

Where is Joo JiNa?? She must not have gone far considering the situation she is in now. She is now too shocked to even process anything. She must have thought that it was just a simple dinner between two families, who knew that it was a trap for an arranged marriage with her enemy.

There is a park next door, girls like to go there to vent their emotions. I wonder if she is there. I mean that she is also a girl despite what she wears. I ran around the park, trying to look for someone that wears a leather jacket and boots. She is so athletic, she must have gone home. I don't know if my guess is right.

I was going to give up when......

I saw someone with her head down, the leather jacket placed on the chair. It must be her, there is no way that it is not her. I walked behind her step by step, not making her think that I ran to look for her. I could hear her sobbing once every 10 seconds. She must have been so sad. What are they even thinking as parents and siblings??

JiNa

What are they even thinking?? Pairing me up with the person that I hated the most. This is not some kind of a dare okay?? This is not something to be joked about.

It hurts someone so much knowing that they are going to be married when they don't even know each other. In fact, we hated each other a lot. So much that we would fight every time we made eye contact. It is already miserable enough knowing that he is in the same musical team as you, he is the male lead instead of you.

Do anyone know that I want to be the male lead more than anyone, especially when I am a girl?? Why are they so cruel??

I wiped my mucus with my hands, I don't care if it is dirty or not. I don't have any tissue with me right now. "I wished that there was tissue with me right now so that I can blow my nose. My nose is so blocked that I can't even breathe!!" I said with my crying voice.

I looked to my side, there are 5 packs of tissue paper next to me. What is this sorcery?? What just happened?? "Who placed the tissue here?? Who??" I raised the pack of tissue paper up and shouted.

No one replied. Then who was the one that placed it here?? Some good person that had too much money to spend who decided to buy some tissue paper for me to blow my nose.

"Miss, just take it. The man told me that he paid for you." An old man said to me. He was selling packs of tissue paper. That explains why there was tissue paper beside me.

"Someone bought it for me?? Do you know who is it??" I asked the old man. 

"He told me not to tell anyone, just use it. He must have wanted you to vent out all your anger. You must be having a bad day huh??" I looked at the packs of tissue. Whoever that is, thank you. I appreciate your kindness...
