One sided love

Chapter 10 - The Wedding

Lee Jieun's pov

First my mother demanded canceling. Then she demanded a repayment for their lost trust. Then I stepped in, defending Myungsoo and his family. Then everything went down when Suzy joined and bashed me because I talked about her boyfriend. Everything I denied, she confirmed. Everything I tried to prevent, she made it happen.

I could not blame her, she was just defending her boyfriend's family's honor. At least that was what I thought she was doing, or then she just wanted to ruin our wedding which was most likely closer to the truth.

After many shouts between my mother and Suzy, they finally calmed down to take a breath. Even that took a lot of persuading and a headache coming on it's way. After that messy situation that was ready to erupt again any time now, Yoonhee pulled me away, rescuing me.

But she, being curious as well, couldn't help asking what was going on. I explained everything. How this happy marriage was a doomed one, how I found out about Suzy, how Sehun just turned his back on me, how I really needed someone, just anyone, I could talk and rely on.

I even shed couple a couple tears that couldn't be avoided. Yoonhee hugged me, wishing some strength to me and she gave me some warmth. That was the point I knew what I wanted. I hoped a short time notice would not prevent it from happening.

"Yoonhee, will you be my maid of honor tomorrow?" I asked her and she pulled away from the hug, staring at me with silence.

"Of course!" she answered with no hesitation in her voice, tears starting to swell up in her eyes as well.

She was so happy for me, just like a real friend should be. I didn't even know how we became this close. Maybe it all started with Hana, the small clueless girl that played with the water in our small fountain, oblivious to the chaos around her.

Today was finally the D-Day. The day I'd marry Kim Myungsoo. I should enjoy this day like it would be my last, that's not far from today anyway. But that mindset would be for the best so that I could get over anything that was about to come.

I looked at my reflection on this big mirror that revealed how I looked in my white wedding dress my mother and Yoonhee were helping me to adjust.

We decided to held our wedding inside a church, even though I'd really prefer an outdoor wedding. On a beach or under cherry blossoms in Japan for an example. And my husband would truly love me, be ready to vow me his eternal love. I would be the love of his life.

I looked at the happy but still sad smile on my face. Then my gaze went to my dress and I admired its wasted beauty.
It had long sleeves and the front had some silver patterns that formed leaves and flowers. There was some kind of pearly belt going around my waist.

The hem was long, but light so that it floated slightly like it's from a fairytale. I had white heels that had small white flowers on them and a white flowerpin on my hair.

My hair was on a ponytail, but the ends were curled so it would fit Myungsoo taste. He told me I should have more curls on my hair and tie them when we met in the restaurant.

I glanced carefully at Yoonhee that hummed happily while fixing my gown's hem, I looked at my mother, who was busy tying my loose hair and then at Hana, my lovely flower girl that was admiring her own bunch of flowers. The feeling that suddenly washed over me was nice, and for a second it felt like everything would be real.

The expecting nervousness and the fast thumping of my heart. My wedding day... But the mood changed the moment Myungsoo stepped in my dressing room alongside with Suzy.

"What are you doing? It's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding!" my mother exclaimed and I had to agree with her. That was what people said and that was the tradition that my family had kept intact from years ago.
