Wedding Planner ; Jeongcheol

Chapter 2

Jeonghan stared at the couple incredulously.

“Are you…are you serious?” he stuttered, despite how unprofessional it was for him to question the couple’s decision. He swallowed hard and ran a hand through his hair in confusion. “You guys want to get married in two weeks?”

Ara nodded and reached over to squeeze Seungcheol’s hand, “Yeah, we do.” She glanced at Seungcheol and smiled, “We figured there’s no point in waiting.”

Seungcheol smiled back at Ara and nodded, “Do you think you could pull it off in such a short time frame?”

Jeonghan gripped his pen tightly and shrugged, “I suppose there’s always a first time for everything.” He forced a smile, “Well, do you two at least have any plans or preferences for the wedding in terms of location or theme?”

The couple blinked at Jeonghan blankly, and the latter resisted the urge to let his head fall onto his desk in frustration.

This was going to be even harder than he had thought.

Chan walked inside the office with a cup of coffee as soon as the couple had left his office, and Jeonghan was never happier to see the younger man. 

“Thank you.” Jeonghan muttered as he took the warm cup out of Chan’s hands. He took a sip and sighed, “This is going to be hell.”

“…yet you accepted the offer anyway.” Chan commented as he fixed Jeonghan’s calendar to make room for the new clients, “Hyung, you could’ve easily said no.”

“No way would I let such an opportunity slip away.” Jeonghan replied as he leaned back into his chair, “Besides, the sky’s the limit in terms of expenses, so there’s less of a worry. They won’t mind being charged rush fees, and they won’t mind paying extra for other additional costs.”

“It’s quite amazing to see what money can do for people.” Chan said as he took hold of Jeonghan’s notepad and flipped through it, “I suppose the fact they’re both extremely rich should make things a lot easier for you.”

“They do seem nice enough.” Jeonghan said aloud as he took a sip of his coffee. He let out a more content breath, “I just hope they’re easy to please. If they’re going to be so particular about everything, then that’s just going to make the job much harder.”

“Well, I don’t think –“

The door to the office creaked open, and both men glanced at the door. Choi Seungcheol poked his head through the door, “I’m sorry. Is it alright if I talk to you Mr. Yoon?”

“I’ll go back to my desk.” Chan said as he slipped past Seungcheol and allowed for the men to speak in private. Just as he was about to leave completely, he turned around to speak, “Hyung, make sure to eat before two, because you have an appointment.”

Jeonghan nodded, “Thank you for reminding me, I’ll make sure to do so.”

As soon as the door closed, Jeonghan gestured for Seungcheol to sit down. “You can call me Jeonghan by the way. I hate being called Mr. Yoon by my clients – it makes me feel like I’m ancient.”

Seungcheol chuckled, “Well, you can call me Seungcheol then, and I’m sorry for making you feel old.” He smiled brilliantly at Jeonghan, “I just wanted to apologize to you.” 

“For?” Jeonghan asked as he fixed his notes. He raised an eyebrow, “I didn’t think there was anything in our conversation that you would need to apologize for. You both were perfectly –“

“We’re both clueless, especially me.” Seungcheol interrupted, “I’m sorry for placing such a heavy burden on your shoulders –“

“You’re paying me to take care of this burden though.” Jeonghan said with a smile.
