Perfect Wife

Marrying Who?

Gomi's P. O. V.

I looked at him in shock. "Jooheon? Is that you?" I asked him.

I could recognize those cute dimples and friendly smile easily. He definitely was my High school classmate, Jooheon. He noticed me and smiled. "Gomi! long time, no see," He said hugging me, "How's life after high school been for you?"

I laughed a little. I told him everything that had happened. From meeting Wonho to the baby situation.

"So there's a baby in there? I was wondering why it looked like you gained a little weight," Jooheon said with a laugh.

I playfully pushed him. "That was rude," I laughed.

"So, you marrying this guy?" Jooheon asked.

I smiled to myself. "I plan to. How about you? Anything interesting happening?"

"Actually there is." Jooheon's smile disappeared from his face.

He told me about this girl, Lucy, he was in love with. The way he described her, I could tell she was really important to him. Lucy didn't know how he felt about her though. "Why don't you just confess to her?" I asked as we both sat down on a bench.

"I can't. Even if I did and she liked me back, there's no way we can be together," Jooheon sighed.

"But why?"

Jooheon explained to me that Lucy was from a wealthy family just like me, but her parents were more strict. They wanted her to marry a guy that could help make their company more wealthy. In other words, not a guy like Jooheon.

"Today, I just heard that her father arranged a marriage meeting for her," Jooheon said. He shifted in his seat.

Before I could say anything else, my phone rang. I quickly answered it, seeing that Wonho was calling. "Gomi? I need you to meet me at the local café right now," Wonho said. It sounded urgent.

"Okay, I'll be there."

I stood up after Wonho hung up the phone. "Something came up," I said, "I have to go."

Jooheon stood also. "Well then see you later."

Just when he was about to leave, I stopped him. "Why don't you come with me?"

Jooheon smiled and nodded. He reminded me of a cute puppy.

Lucy's P. O. V.

Wonho and I were at a café. He treated me to some coffee and I didn't accept, so we were awkwardly sitting at a table. I still couldn't believe my father would make me marry him. First of all, I was too young to get married. I wasn't ready at all for that kind of commitment, especially with a stranger. Second of all, I already had feelings for someone else. Not that I was gonna admit it out loud. He probably didn't feel the same.

"So we need to figure out how to get out of this," Wonho said before taking a sip of his coffee.

"You said there was someone who you already want to be with," I questioned, "Does she know about this?"

Wonho shook his head. "Not really."

I sighed and crossed my arms over my chest. "Call her right now. She needs to know. The more help the better."

Wonho pulled out his phone from his pocket and called her. "Gomi? I need you to meet me at the local café right now," Wonho said.

They talked for another second but soon hung up. I smiled and folded my hands together. I thought maybe I should invite Jooheon, but dismissed the thought right away.

After about twenty minutes, a girl came into the cafe with Jooheon. My eyes widened in shock as they walked towards us. Jooheon was surprised to see me too.

"Hey, Wonho. Sorry I'm late and I kind of brought a friend also," the girl named Gomi said sitting next to him, "I see you brought a friend too?"

Jooheon sat down next to me, causing me to awkwardly shift in my seat. "Well, remember when I told you that my father arranged a marriage?" Wonho explained, "This is Lucy... The one who I'm supposed to marry."

Both Jooheon and Gomi looked at me in shock. I smiled shyly. Jooheon suddenly spoke up. "I can't believe this," He said with a sigh.

Gomi gave Jooheon a questioning look. Jooheon explained how he knew me already and I guess Gomi was his high school classmate. What a small world it is. 

We talked about the whole marriage situation and we made ideas to solve it. Later that day, Wonho and Go I went home. It was just Jooheon and I, alone.

I glanced at him a few times as we waited at the bus stop. "It's funny how you were classmates with that girl from before," I said to interrupt the silence, "What a small world it is."

Jooheon smiled. Reveling those adorable dimples he had. I couldn't help but keep my eyes on him. In moments like these, I wanted to confess to him. I would forget about all the bad things that would happen if I dated him. If only I didn't have the family I had.

"Jooheon, Let's date," I blurted out, "I like you a lot."
