Eunji looked at her reflection one more time. She looked beautiful with her light make-up and her slightly curled hair.
"Eunji-ah! You ready?" Yunho shouted from downstairs.
"Yes, I'll be there in a minute." She replied and grabbed her handbag on the table and left. She was more nervous than when she had her first job interview.
Key was rubbing his eyes after his mother woke him up. There's no way he can win against his mother.
"Kibum! Hurry up! They'll be here in few minutes." Mrs Kim's said and left the room.
"Aish!" He muttered annoyingly.
Key was still busy preparing himself when The Jung siblings arrived and Mrs Kim had to cover him by saying he worked late last night.
"You two must be Changmin and Yunho, right?" Mrs Kim exclaimed when she saw the male siblings.
"Emonim! Annyeonghaseyo!" The three said in chorus and bowed.
"It's been long time since we met." She said and gestured the siblings to sit.
It wasn't long before Key came downstairs and Mrs Kim was really shocked. He had messy hair and he was still in his pajamas. She wanted to scold him for being rude, but she couldn't do anything because they were in front her in-law family.
"Isn't he that playboy CEO?" Changmin whispered to his hyung.
"He is. Don't tell me he's going to be our brother in-law? Doesn't he have a girlfriend?" He whispered back. Eunji let out a heavy sigh. If only she had known that her husband was going to be 'the' Kim Kibum, she wouldn't have agreed to this marriage.
"What do you think you are doing huh Kibum?" Mrs Kim gritted her teeth. "Wearing pajamas on our first meeting with the in-law family."
"I don't see anything wrong with wearing pajamas." Key replied, loud enough for everyone to hear it. "You must be my soon-to-be wife, right Miss Jung Eunji?"
"You know me?" She asked unbelievable.
"Yes, who wouldn't know the famous designer Jung Eunji of Cube Corporation?" He said and smirked.
"Behave, Kibum!" Mrs Kim said, trying to hold her anger.
"Can I go back to sleep, umma?" Key said and yawned. It clearly showed that he was annoyed with his mother. He then headed upstairs, leaving his angry mother looking at his back.
"I'll be back, kid!" Mrs Kim said as smoke started to appear from her ears.
"Kibum! Stop!" She said.
"What now, mom?" He asked.
"Are you trying to embarrass me?"
"How can I embarrass you, umma?" He asked back. "I don't understand why you wanted to marry with someone I never known."
"She's the perfect good girl for you."
"Good?" He forced a laugh. "If she was really a good girl, she wouldn't have agreed to marry a guy that she never seen or met. The only reason she's agreeing is because she wants money."
"Kim Kibum!"
"I need to go to my room."
Meanwhile,
"Eunji!" Yunho said as he shook his sister.
"I'm okay!" She replied and smiled to her brothers.
"We can called this marriage off!" Changmin said and patted his head.
"So, that mean we're breaking the promise, right? We won't fulfill our parents' wish if we call it off." She answered.
"But..."
"I said I'm okay." She cut him.
Mrs Kim heard everything and instantly felt sorry for Eunji. She shouldn't have offered this marriage.
"Maybe it isn't as smooth as we expect it to be, Hyesun-ah.." She sighed and looked at the photo of her and Mrs Jung that was hanging on the wall.
