Arranged Marriage 3 || Kim Taehyung

6

"Professor Jeon.." your voice trailed off a bit.

The middle aged woman slowly approached you & you felt your whole world crumble. Preparing yourself for any insults or even her slapping you. Her son was behind bars all because of you. Even thought you aren't a mother, you can imagine how that felt.

"Oh Mina." she suddenly embraced you in her warmth. It felt nice.

Slowly after sometime she let go, taking a second to fully examine you.

"I can not put into words how sorry I am for my....my son's actions. He hurt you in more ways than one, taking away somethings that can never be replaced & breaking things that can never be repaired. I didn't know how to approach you..well actually I was scared to. I felt like I watched it happen in a way, and I simply can never forgive myself. But I love if we could start fresh, just us."

You were take back by her suddenly confession. You would've never expected for her to be so remorseful about the whole situation but it made sense.

"Professor, you are not your son & I know that all too well. Nothing he has done has reflected on your. I know you're just a devoted art teacher who cares for her students. It was really nice seeing you, but I'm not sure if I'd want a fresh start. As much as I don't blame you..whenever I see your face..it reminds me. I think it's best this way."

Her face slowly formed into a frown as realization dawned upon her. She smiled & hugged you again. After giving you her good graces she excused herself & disappeared amongst the crowd of people.

The whole experience left you a little shaken. You didn't expect to see her nor for her to say those things to you.

Quickly snapping out of it you went to go retrieve you what you had came there for.

The rest of the trip went exceptionally well. You decided to keep your little encounter a secret from Taehyung.

He was happy. You wanted to keep it that way.

"Babe, I'm going to hop into the shower okay?" you shouted from the bathroom.

"Okay!" just as Taehyung answered you there was an incoming call on your landline.

"Hello?"

"Hello, is this Kim Taehyung?"

"Yes, this is he."

"Ah..Mr. Kim do you do photography for weddings?"

"No, but I could why?"

"Because I would love to have you for mine."
