The Wedding Planner

Chapter 17

My eyes fluttered open and I found Wonho sitting at the end of my bed. "What happened?" I asked. "Go brush your teeth before we continue talking, it still stinks of soju" Wonho said and I smelled my breath, shoot, it does stink.

I got out of bed then brushed my teeth and went back to my room. "What happened last night?" I asked filled with curiosity. "Congratulations Chorong, you got drunk again and I drove you home" Wonho said with sarcasm in his voice.

"What else?" I asked. Wonho suddenly got up from my bed and patted my back. "Are you alright Chorong?" he asked me. "What do you mean? Of course I'm alright, so tell me what happened" I said feeling a bit annoyed with this bartender guy.

"You cried in my boss' office and hugged me while crying" Wonho said and my eyes widened when I remembered what happened. "Wait, you called someone last night to pick me up, who was it?" I asked Wonho. "He didn't come to pick you up, he told me to stay with you until you woke up" Wonho said.

"But who was it?" I asked. "Jimin, I called Jimin" Wonho confessed and I just nodded. Still avoiding me huh? Well, I don't blame him, he's getting married and there I was kissing a soon to be married man. How much more stupid could I have gotten?

I let out a deep sigh and said "He didn't come on purpose, and I don't blame him". "What happened? Come on, tell me" Wonho said and sat down on my bed patted the empty spot next to him.

I sat down and said "he's getting married, and I'm planning that wedding, so I'm practically waiting for them to get married, what do I do?". "When's the wedding?" Wonho asked me. "Next week Sunday" I said. "Then you have that much time to either let him go or hold onto him" Wonho said.

"But it's an arranged marriage" I said. "Still though, do you want to hold onto him? Or let go?" Wonho asked suddenly sounding serious. "I don't know, what's better for me?" I asked. "How would I know? Do I look like your brother to you?" Wonho asked.

I groaned in frustration and pulled my pillow then dropped it on my face. "Yah, Chorong-ah, you need to make a choice because next week on Sunday, you'll have no other choice but to let him go" Wonho said and picked up the pillow from my face. "Besides, don't you have work today?" Wonho asked and I immediately got up from my bed.

"Shoot! You're right!" I shouted then took a quick shower, quickly dressed up and ran to my car. "Yah! Chorong-ah!" Wonho shouted in front of my house and I realized he doesn't have his car with him so I'll have to drive him with me to work.

"Get in!" I shouted at Wonho and he got into my car then sat in the passenger's seat. I immediately drove to work then when I parked my car, I went up to my office with Wonho trailing behind me. "You know, there's no point on rushing if we'll end up getting to your office at the same time" Wonho said with his hands in his pockets.

We walked to my office and Sungjae was sitting at his desk while spinning his chair. "Good Morning Chorong, you're later than usual today. You have to make the hotel reservations for out-of-town guests today" Sungjae said. "What about the promotion I'm offering you?" I asked. "My Uncle told me to take it so I'm taking it" he answered and I said "Good, now both of us are going to have to look for an assistant, your new office is next to mine in the other room". "Really?" Sungjae asked and ran out of my office to look at his new office. "Do I start today?" Sungjae asked and I nodded.

I faced Wonho and said "do you want to be my new assistant?". "As long as I don't have to work at the bar anymore" he answered. "Let me move out first" Sungjae excitedly said while moving all of his things inside a box. When he finished, Wonho sat in his new desk and I called up Naeun.
