"Ahh!!" Ji Hye screamed out of pain after getting poked by a pin. She dropped the painting that she was carrying from truck to the yard. "This pin!!! Damn!"
Sandy ran to her by leaving dusting."What happened?!" Ji Hye showed her hand."See, I have told u thousand times, these kind of works are not for me!!" Sandy didn't say anything, only gave her a blank look. Suddenly she noticed the broken frame and shouted,"Oh My God! My painting!!! What the hell have u done Hye!!! U know how much it cost! It took me 4 month to save money for buying it! And see what have u done!! Can't u do at least one thing correctly?!!''
Ji Hye also replied angrily,"And I have told u that I can't do such Petty works!! I am not a servant! U better call Nam Ji Hyun for this! She is used to deal with trash!!!"She threw her hand gloves on the floor and turned to go, but Sandy hold her and dragged roughly inside the living room, which was unfurnished and yet to clean.
-"Listen to me carefully Ji Hye!" Sandy grabbed her wrist tight and whispered."You need to change Your behavior from now. U have to learn all the things that an ideal girl do and act in that way. Otherwise, we won't get whatever we want, for what we did all these things. U need to remember that, this is all for u. Understand?!!"
Ji Hye stared quietly at Sandy for a moment, and then nodded."Yeah mom, I know!"
One week ago.
Ji Hye returned home after meeting Mr.and Mrs.Byun, and Ji Chang Wook. She was still so mesmarised by JCW that couldn't stop herself to tell her mother about him. Sandy got excited after hearing about him and his status. She inquired about his family and background out of curiosity. She was surprised to know how much popular Ji Chang Wook is for his looks and personality. He is one of the best and richest prosecutors of the country. When she got to know that JCW is still unmarried, she got hit by an idea. If Ji Hye got married to him, she would get to live a luxurious life that she had always wanted! When she heard about Mrs.Byun's warm behavior towards Ji Hye, she decided that the best way to get closer with JCW is to win heart of his parents. As planned, they shifted to the neighborhood of JCW, though for that she had to sell half of her jewelries. Coz it was expensive to rent a house in that area, but she was sure about getting all the money back after the marriage.Sandy jerked Ji Hye,"So now U have to act as I say and caught attention of his parents. U need to win their hearts, only then u will get close to ur goal. Remember that!!"
Ji Hye shook her head." I got it mom! Don't worry! Our plan won't be ruined because of me. Ji Chang Wook will only be mine!! Just wait and see!"
Sandy left her hand," Then do as I say.
Go to their house now!"
Ji Hye became surprised."Now?!"
-"Yeah, now! Go and give them rice cakes as we have shifted here as new neighbors. Try to get along with those oldies and also try to become a perfect girl in their eyes. Hope u can do at least this much!"
Ji Hyes agreed."Sure mom! I am going right now!' she was about to go but Sandy stopped her."Seriously?! U want to go there like this?! Go and freshen up! Wear ur best dress and put some make up. Come on, hurry up!"
-"Yeah right!" Ji Hye ran inside to change. Sandy smirked cunningly and started planning further.Ji Hye knocked at the door of Byun's house. After a while, Mrs. Byun's voice came from inside.''Who is it?!"
Ji Hye stood before the security camera."Annyeonghaseyo!! I am ur new neighbor. Just shifted here and thought to give u some rice cakes! Hope u will like it!"
-"Oh! Plz wait a minute!" The door opened and Mrs.Byun came outside."So u r our new neighbor. Nice to see u! And also surprised that u have brought rice cakes!" She laughed."Nowadays nobody follows this kind of tradition, specially young generation like u!" She took the packet."Thank u very much!"
"U r welcome!" Ji Hye nodded."and it was also very nice meeting u again!"
-"Again?!'' Mrs.Byun looked a bit surprised."Oh wait! U r looking familiar!" She stared at her for a while."If I am not wrong, aren't u the girl who had come before for delivering wools?"
"Yeah, u r right!" Ji Hye smiled.
"Oh, I am really very happy to see u again!'' Mrs.Byun smiled."Plz come inside! We couldn't talk much that day."
Ji Hye showed hesitation first and went inside on insist. Mrs.Byun started asking about her. She was continuously talking and Ji Hye was only answering. She was feeling irritated but tried to cover that with a fake smile. Mrs.Byun was talking about random things, but Ji Hye got interested when she started talking about Ji Chang Wook.
-"Sometimes I actually got very worried for him."Mrs.Byun was saying while making tea."He is my only son. And I am very, very proud to have a son like him! I thought sometimes that I might have done any good work in my past life that I got him as my son!" She smiled proudly."He doesn't have any lacking in any way! He had given us all the happiness that a son could ever give to his parents! But still, I feel worried!!"
-"why?? Is there any problem?!" Ji Hye asked with tension.
-"He never told me, but I can feel that he is very lonely." Mrs.Byun looked a little sad."If u meet him, u will realize that he is very different from others. He opened up with only a few persons, those he thinks close. His best friend is his work. Otherwise nothing attracts his attention. He doesn't have any friend except a childhood one. Whenever I talk to him about marriage, he just coldly denies!''
Ji Hye moved a little in the name of marriage."Why?! Does he have any girlfriend?!"
Mrs.Byun smiled weakly."Girlfriend!! If he has, then I will be the happiest person!!"She paused for a sec, and then said slowly,"Actually, he had! But that also almost 10years ago! As far as I remember, Ji Wook was quite serious about her. But then, something happened, and they broke up!"
-"What happened?!" Ji Hye asked.
Mrs. Byun shrugged.''I don't know. Ji Wook never told me about that. But after that, he never dated any girl. Leave alone girlfriend, he didn't even give any chance to any one to approach him! The girls of whole city are crazy behind him, and here I am, craving for a daughter in law!!" Mrs.Byun laughed loudly."Sorry if I bored u with my life stories!''
-''No, no, it's okay! I am enjoying." Ji Hye smiled.
Mrs.Byun seemed to remember something."Well, I will be very happy if You and your family have dinner with us today!! U r already tired becoz of the shifting. Now u don't have to take worries about cooking!''
Though Ji Hye tried to act hesitate and called her mother for permission, she very well knew that Sandy won't ever deny as it was a big plus point to her plan. And happened the same also! Mrs.Byun looked happy by hearing that they have agreed.''Good! Now we will become real neighbors, by having dinners in each other's place!"
Ji Hye smiled, Then she asked with a little bit hesitation,"So, where is ur son now?! In office?!"
-''Yeah, but maybe it's time for his return." Mrs.Byun checked the time.''He is most probably on his way to home. Hopefully u will meet him at dinner."
Ji Hye looked at the clock.
It's 5 P.M.
