Arranged Marriage with Luhan

After All

           It was in the morning when a call came especially for me. It was from my mother, whom I had not talked with for a long time. I supposed it was about the company, and when she informed me her reason for ringing, I knew I was right. She called to fill me in regarding a meeting which will take place in the evening. She also gave me certain directions regarding the place, and what attire should be given attention. She assured me that everything was provided for me, too, although she did not specify. I just agreed with her.

     “And do you not run, young lady, for it is an imbecile that performs such an act. And manners, my child, is the thing we need in a world like now.” She reminded as I laughed.

     “Of course. I will not want the guests to be kept waiting.” I answered as we both laughed.

     I thought the call would end, not until she asked about the people I was staying with.

     “Is it not that awkward for you to stay with twelve boys? It is not fine for me, though. But I heard that they were well mannered? Or am I too confident? I am sorry for letting you in a situation where I should not.” She asked.

     “Of course, mom. Don’t worry. You’re not giving your daughter away. I was learning a lot from them, how to live with less drama and such. And besides, they treated me as if I were one of them.” I said and smiled. A pause was taken, until I decided to ask something.

     “Could they call you ‘mom’? They had been bugging me since then.” I asked as she laughed.

     “Why not? Can I hear from them?” She asked as I pressed the button and called them. All of them greeted loud, and yet looking rather timid. I cannot explain, but I guessed they felt shy.

     It was followed with a small conversation, with her telling them to take care and such. She was like a mother to them in a short amount of time, even though they have not conversed largely. I was already happy with this, though.

     She bid goodbye shortly after that, but it was assured that she brought smiles to all of them. I guessed they were delighted with the thought of having another mother as a figure. It was seen when they thanked me of telling my mom.

     “A package came for you, Jjeolbae.” Xiumin approached me and handed a small box. He also mentioned three letters which I understood fast. I was shocked with this, of course, but I supposed that this was what my mother was referring to.

     “Yves Saint Laurent?” I asked as Xiumin nodded his head.

     “I think so. That’s cool.” He said cheerfully as the both of us smiled.

     I entered my room and unboxed the package that came. It revealed a black dress which I think was really thought of, since it did not show much skin. I was pretty pleased with what my mother choose, since she picked my chosen style.

     I lay on the bed as a person knocked. I was supposed to have my thoughts for a while, but I guessed that would have to wait.

I opened the door to find Luhan standing behind. I made him enter the moment I saw him, and inquired about his visit shortly.

“Could you style my hair? I really don’t know what to do.” He asked as I immediately agreed to. I was not an expert at this, though, but I knew the basics, since I search for random things every day. I took the materials needed as he narrated his reasons. I was told that he would be meeting his parents for a small chat with another family at Gwanak district. He found it traditional though, and he supposed that he would be meeting a family with a kept bloodline. And he expected that he would meet Sabrina.
