Some relationships are easy to fix than others. With family, I suppose it is easier. I just don’t get this book like hell seriously I don’t. ‘Women and relationships’. Everything I see now is getting blur. I suppose that it should be getting clear but now to me. Leaving my one and only love for someone who doesn’t even know my existence before. Fulfill father’s will. In dilemma, I have to choose either to stay in Korea with mother and marry Kris or leave Korea with Suho, the one that I love for most.
I still don’t get it. Why Suho kept calling me for the past few days and suddenly, he stop calling me? He has moved on? I should not care about that but can’t help it to curious more about it. The thing is, what make me curious is, why I haven’t receive any single call from Wu family? I thought we were already discussed about it and agreed with my marriage with Kris? It can’t be happening! I’ve sacrified everything to get married with him. Yes! I am into his money. Then? His heart? Hell no!
Why I get married with him is all about money, father’s will and both of our parents’ friendship’s agreement. Stupid agreement! Can’t they just help my family without involving my life. Yeah. After all.., I still need money for my further study. I want to be a fashion designer. Father said that a Fashion Designer won’t go anywhere. Nah! It’s still my dream. I want to be the Great Fashion Designer in Korea or maybe in the world. Why not?
Contemplating about my life really make me hungry like hell! I should get something to eat otherwise I can’t think properly. Off me to Starbucks!
………………………………….
Starbucks…, the scent, the atmosphere, the decorations, are still the same. Black Coffee and Banana Pancakes with my favorite book, Coversations Between Us written by the Solangel.., what a perfect combinations! Well, habit is second nature. I would spend at least 3 hours here while reading the book and the last time I remember, I’ve read this book for 28th times and here I am again, reading it for the 29th times.
Here, I feel so easy. I am the permanent customer. To be exactly, I am the part of this Starbucks family. Still reading the 9th chapter. My eyebrows arched since I’m reading a gangster story, yeah funny me! I heard a crack! From the counter. What’s happening?
“Are you fucking kidding me? I’m asking for a Black Coffee without anything inside. JUST A PLAIN BLACK COFFEE!” a man’s voice. A husky voice which is very rare yet quite familiar with me.
“What the heck is happening right now?” I mumbled silently. Without even thinking twice, I walk to the counter, want to see what had happened. I curious. Who the hell in the world who is mad at my friend right now?! Oh yes! My friend, Yuna, works here as a cashier.
All I can see on the floor are the glasses. Black Coffee with the foam. Delicious I thought. I tap that man’s shoulder, “excuse me sir, what can I help you?” I’m scared but duh! She’s my friend. I need to help her somehow. His back, somehow quite familiar.
He turned around. Bloody hell! What the fuck he’s doing here? I was shocked that my mouth was gaped! Damn! I cursed under my breath.
“Nayoung? What are doing here?” he is asking me. I can sense sarcasm here. Duh! Obviously he doesn’t like to see me. Well I’m the one who should ask him. I guess?
“I-I- I’m reading. I mean.., I ‘m always spend my times here, reading. W-What are doing here?” don’t want to sound too sly. Wait! I’m not! “Well, w-what had happened?”
“Well here, this cashier was wrong! I asked for a plain black coffee. NOT WITH THE FOAM!” he is screaming while looking at Yuna.
“Well then, It’s not a big deal. You can ask for another coffee right?” I’m trying to smile. Then, he smirked! He smirked! Why??
“I have so much thing to do that I don’t even have a time to wait for another coffee!” He insisted.
“Yuna”, I called for her, “give this gentlemen a compensation for his lost please. You know the rules. If we make a mistake, we should be responsible. Don’t forget to use your own money.” I stated firmly in hope that he will be afraid… I guess?
“I’m sorry sir. This is your money.” Yuna try to smile.
“No it’s okay. I don’t give a damn to your money. Just make sure that another customer won’t go through this thing!” then left and I can sense a smirked which was craved on his face.
I chase him. I mean.., I go after him. “Hey gentlemen there!”
“What?”
“I-I want to make a clean breast about something.”
“What, you mean by ‘something’ is our marriage? Well, we don’t have anything to discuss more-“
“Wait! What are you talking about?” I’m nervous. What if he doesn’t want to get married with me? “We actually should discuss about it! I mean, at least you need to lis-“
“We are getting married.”
Wait what? Am I hear wrong?
“We are getting married. What? My mom didn’t call you yet? Yeah sure… Okay then. I’m already late for my meeting so if you want to request for anything for our wedding just please call my mom. She will settle it for you okay?”
“I thought you are not going to get married with me?” with poor voice I have.
“Do I need a reason to get married with you?” he smirked arrogantly. “Well Nayoung, see you next week for our preparation okay? Bye.” There he left me, with his arrogant, with his smirked. I really hate it!
I was left. I was doomed. And when I get back to the Café, my ears are being rained with questions by Yuna. Who was that guy? How did you know him? What did he say? Blah…blah…blah.. All I can say is “he’s my friend’s friend. I just barely know him. Yuna, I need to go back to campus because I have an assignment to submit. I’ll see you later love!” with hugs smile and kiss, I left her in the dark, without know anything about what had happened. Sorry my friend, one fine day, you will know everything.
