The week has passed yet again, it's not boring because you get to spend it with the guys. You finally treat them although it's only for chicken and beer. That's what they want though so you just follow along. Actually Yeosang kinda whined so the guys just let him choose what he wanted. You guys exchanged stories, sharing embarrassing stuff, annoying encounter, and other happenings around them and yourself.
"Thanks for the ride, drive home safely!" you said before closing his car door.
"Y/n-ah!" you turned back around seeing him from the rolled-down window. "Yeah?"
"I.. uh.. I want to.. introduce you to my parents.." he said looking anywhere but your eyes.
"I just want them to know that I have a girlfriend.. so they won't try to match me with some wealthy kids out there I didn't even know.." he said now searching for your eyes.
You find him cute for stuttering like that, you know the day will finally come, you're quite worried but you would do anything for him. "That's fine with me~" you said with your bright smile ensuring him. "Inform me whenever, you know my shifts already right?"
You've been around the store for an hour and you haven't chosen a dress yet. You never really look for a dress, you're more comfortable in pants but for the first time in so long, you want to impress with your appearance. You will meet his parents this Sunday, he invited you for a dinner in a five-star hotel restaurant, you can't show up in a pants can you? Lucky you have Jooyeon as a girl friend, she knows a lot about fashion but she can't accompany you so you're now looking for a dress like her recommendation but you're having a hard time by yourself.
After some more fitting, you finally had your choice. You also get yourself a pair of white heels to match your dress.

"It's fine sweetie, don't be nervous, you're gonna trip on your heels if you don't loosen up."
"Eomma what if I really tripped in front of them...!" you said pouting at her.
Just then you heard your phone rings, he must have arrived. "Ah I'm going now eomma, eat your dinner and medicine, don't wait for me if you're tired okay?" you said rushing to the door with your heels on your hand.
You open the door seeing his face from the gate. You walked to the gate and made your way out. "Hey" you said to him who is currently scanning your appearance. "Woah" he bring his hand to close his mouth. "You're so dazzling.."
You also take a quick look at him, he's wearing a black suit jacket with white shirt underneath that tucked into black slacks, "You look dashing yourself!"
"It's okay, I'm here." he said giving your arm a light squeeze. You hold onto his arm for support as you're not used to walking in heels, not that you can't balance yourself, you really don't want to trip so you might held onto him too tight but he didn't mind anyway. Your heart beating faster as you enter the restaurant, the waiter escort you to the table, his parents were already there.
"Good evening mr. Jeong, good evening mrs. Jeong" you bowed politely to them. They greeted you with a smile, "Come on sit down, sit down" his father offered, he really seems friendly, you're glad. You thought that it would be awkward but thanks to Yunho because he seems to have prepared topics to talk about that you can easily interact with so the conversation is flowing well.
The dessert has been served, you're about to have a bite when you heard mrs. Jeong,"So you're a chef without any specific education background, only a high school graduate. That's interesting." you put down your fork and look up to her.
"Honey what are you talking about, it doesn't matter if they lov-" mr. Jeong chimed in.
"Yunho-ya, I know you have your agreement with your father, but I thought that you know better.. Why do you even associate yourself with her again? You deserved someone better than her." Hurt, that hurts, her words.
Actually, a few days before, his mother has asked him some info about you, he answered all of them but she didn't say anything back, so Yunho thought that his mother is fine with it. He also told her that you used to be his friend in the last year of elementary, his parents are aware about her accident 'caused' by him, they know yet they did not take any responsibility and move out the neighborhood following his father's business. At least you and Yunho have a connection since long ago, he didn't expect that his mother would be that harsh right in front of you.
Your body tensed after hearing what his mother has to say about you. You feel humiliated and angry, you don't feel sad, you've shed too much tears already. You stand from your seat abruptly, you only glance at her and her husband,"Thank you for the meal, I think it's better for me to leave" you said trying hard to pull a smile before you walk away from the table.
⭐ you don't want anybody to see you break, to see you weak, to see you belittling yourself again, you got no choice but to leave.
here comes evil mother to ruin the day, you seemed defeated but worry not, you've changed. ⭐
