The Better Days With You

CHAPTER 39

HANA

My mother just called me that Yoojung and I need to attend an annual dinner. This annual dinner will be held at our main house. To be honest, I can't wait for it! It's been a long time I step my foot into the house. To think about it, I really missed my old room. My source of inspiration, my world, my cave, my- okay, I need to stop listing.

 We had to appologize to our manager for the sudden rush, but Mr Jen, being our kind manager let us go, while Mr Lee is already waiting for us at the shopping mall entrance.

I chuckled at Yoojung face when we entered the main house. "Hana!" I heard and suddenly I was attacked by a bone-crushing hug. "ahjumma!" I exclaimed when my nose attacked by a familiar lavender scent. "I missed you." The woman sobbed on my shoulder and I also can feel my eyes watered, but I look up to let tears down.

It's been a while I see them. The last time was the moment I left this house. I muttered 'missed you too' at the woman. Jungae ahjumma had been always by my side since I was a baby. She's my second mom. Whenever my parents went overseas, she's the one whi took care of me.

Once the hug released, I saw her eyes darted to my side. "oh, ahjumma, this is-" "Yoojung!" then the girl was attacked by the same bone-crushing hug. Well, there's no need to introduce for that. I laugh at Yoojung's shocked face. "Ms Hyerin talked so much about you." She exclaimed. "welcome to the family, dear." Then Yoojung's face softened as she nodded to the woman.

"okay now, both of you go to your own room and I'll send a maid for you guys to get ready. Also your dress is already there." She ushered us to the stairs before making her way to the kitchen. It was so chaotic in the house right now. The maids are running and yelling making me and Yoojung bursted into laughter before continuing to our own room. "the catering is coming!" I heard Jungae ahjumma shrieked.

After sending Yoojung to her room- yes, she's already had a room here because my mom was very sure that we will win her custody- I entered my room. There's nothing much change in here, except my curtains. I'm sure it was maroon before I left and now they change to a dark blue, which is I like.

I was sitting for hours in front of my mirror, while the maid that was sent is doing something to my hair. Her name is Jina and she's new here. An hour of torture, I'm already wearing my dress.It's a baby pink glitter dress, with V-neck and sleeve that reached my elbow. A thin white belt on the waist to make it done. My make up is light and my hair was tied up in a elegant pony tail. To be honest, I love it.

"you're so beautiful, Hana." Jina unnie said and I hugged her. "thanks ti you, unnie. Your hand is so magical." That made her chuckled and patted my back softly before releasing the hug. "go now. Yoojung is already waiting for you outside." I nodded my head and she pushed me gently to the door. "oh and a little bird told me there are handsome boys downstairs." She winked. I just shook my head. There's no way I could lay my eyes to another boy.

When I opened the door, Yoojung was already waiting ourside in her dress. She's wearing a dark blue sleeveless dress and also had a thin white belt to show her curves. Her make up is a little bit heavy and her hair is braided. But she was pacing out and I saw she was nervous. "are you okay?" I saw her snapped from her thoughts before turning to me. Eyes widened.

"you're so beautiful!" both of us said the same time and making us burst into laughter. But then her laugh vanished. "I'm scared. I wish the boys are here." I smirked. There are double meaning in the sentence. "the boys or Jimin?" I teased. She pushed my shoulder slightly. "so? You do want Taehyung to be here too." My face burns and I look away from her. This time she's the one laughing at me.

This annual dinner is for the company and boutique for achieving their target. After what happened to us, it took so hard for my mom to rise the company. My mother invited the clients and business partners all around the world. What make us more nervous tonight is the result of Yoojung's custody. Even we knew we're going to win, but my mom want to make it official, so tonight, she want to introduce us to the world.

She told us a week ago after the litlle incidents with Yoojung's granparents. My mom sued them because assaulting me and they deserve it. When the news I was slapped, my mom was so furious about. Of course, because she never touch me like that. Yoojung was so panic when mom came to our apartment to discuss about it, but after soothing her, she finally agreed.

"let's go, girls." Mom suddenly appeared and dragged us to the stairs. "breath in and breath out because I'm going to introduce you theworld." My eyes widened and I heard Yoojung gasped. "wait, did you said-" "we won the custody!"

What I know after that, the three of us are squealling like a girl. Well, Yoojung and I are girls, but mom... nevermind that. "so, my girls, are you ready?" we beamed to my- I mean, our mom. This is the most beautiful moment in my life. In our life. We have tears rolling down our cheeks and we wipe it out with smile in our faces. "now, Yoojung," mom put her hand on the girl's shoulder. "I don't want to rush you, but if you want, you can call me mom."

Yoojung broke into tears. "Y-yes. M-mom." She choked. I saw my mom embraced her tightly. My heart swells in happiness and I hope it'll blooms in the future.

"we need another touch up."
