Dae's POV (Mike above)
Tonight I'm going to order room service and relax after hours of researching this case. Dr. Park and I had to move forward with the surgery and complete more paperwork. I was exhausted and needed to rest. Tomorrow is the big day and I have to get my nails done and the reservation for the spa was around 11am. Jin and I were finally getting married and I was excited to become Mrs. Kim. When I sent the email to Dr. Park about the procedure, I turned off my laptop and walked to the bathroom.
The sound of the running water made my body shiver. The steam from the tub filled the room and once I added sweet scented liquid under the faucet, the bubbles covered the tub with hues of dark blue and purple.
Easing my body in the hot water, I took my time to enjoy the fragrance of the sweet water that started to cover my entire body. I submerged myself in a cocoon of warmth was the water raised to my neck.
Muscles that held so much tension melted away. My body relaxed and my eyes closed thinking about the food that I was going to enjoy soon. After my soothing bubble bath, I let my hair down and massaged my vanilla body butter into my skin. Suddenly my phone buzzes and I see that it's a text from Jin. Responding to his text, he was excited to marry me tomorrow and he was getting ready for bed. After I sent Jin a message I put my pajamas and house shoes. Before I was able to turn on the TV and get comfortable, there was a knock at the door.
KNOCK
KNOCK
KNOCK
Remembering that I ordered room service, I rushed to open the door. My stomach was in knots because I was nervous about tomorrow. Jin and I were getting married but, the knot in my stomach was due to my nervousness about the case. Holding the doorknob, I asked:
"Who is it?"
"Room service."The person on the other side of the door answered. When I unlocked the door, I turned the handle and slowly the the door opened. A small table was pushed in while I was looking for a tip to leave for the attendant that was in my pocket. Once I closed the door, I was suddenly introduced to familiar eyes that made my heart drop into my stomach.
"What are you doing here?" The money fell to the floor and I took a few steps backwards.
"Dae, listen. You can't marry him."
"Why not?"
"Because, we promised each other that-
"Tony, you need to go."
"I can't."
"WHY? You never loved me at all. I was just some pawn to you. Love is a choice and you chose to be with her that night."
"I STILL LOVE YOU DAMMIT!" He shouted squeezing my arms. "I love you more than you would ever know. I miss you too much to let you go." Without realizing how hard he was squeezing me, I pulled away. Shaking my head in disbelief, I closed my eyes. This can't be happening.
"Remember that night after your performance. The dreams we shared, the love we made and the tears we shed together." He added.
"Tony, please don't dwell on the past." Before I could turn away, he held me close by my waist. His lips were seconds away from mine when he said: "Remember playing your violin for me when I couldn't sleep? You made me a promise when I was in rehab and drew that picture. What about having my first child and becoming MY WIFE."
