First Kiss Guy

Sulli walked with Ji Young to the gate. Ji Young was talking about planning to open a new branch of her noodle house in the nearby city. Sulli was happy for Ji Young. Ji Young is able to give her family a good life.
Sulli stopped on her tracks. A familiar man was standing by the gate of the school.
“Isn’t that your husband?” asked Ji Young.
Sulli nodded.
Minho waved his hand. Sulli waved back.
“Isn’t it hard to be a wife of a celebrity?” asked Ji Young.
“I don’t know yet.” Said Sulli. “All this time, he wasn’t Minho the celebrity to me… he was Minho, my superman.”
Ji Young giggled.
“You’re making me giddy.” Said Ji Young. “Once I see Heechul Oppa, I’ll let him know you’re around.”
Sulli nodded. “Thank you, Ji Young.”
Ji Young and Sulli parted ways after Ji Young said her goodbye to Minho. Minho reached for Sulli’s hand as they walked back to Sulli’s Grandma’s home.
“How was it?” asked Minho.
“It was good. Fixing old wounds are good.” Said Sulli.
Minho nodded.
Sulli… is such a brave woman. She had so much courage to face her old fears and pain. She was able to let go of hatred in her heart. Minho could see Sulli’s beauty radiating from within.
“I married a beautiful woman.” said Minho.
“Huh?”
“Every day, you give me a reason to love you more.” Said Minho.
Minho tightened his hold on Sulli.
Sulli smiled.
“It wasn’t hard.” Said Sulli. “Because I have such a wonderful husband like you.”
Sulli kissed Minho’s cheek.
Minho smiled.

Minho felt nervous all of a sudden. Sulli and He will be sharing a room tonight. Will he be able to control himself? Minho tried to take deep breaths. He needs to clear his mind and stop getting too excited.
When Sulli was taking a long time to return to the room, he decided to look for Sulli inside the house.
He found Sulli talking with her Uncle. It seems they were in a serious conversation. Sulli’s Uncle was crying. Minho hid himself, he didn’t want to disturb them, it would be awkward to suddenly appear in front of them.
“I… have loved her, I tried to provide for all her needs.” Said Sulli’s Uncle.
“How did you try to give her all her needs?” asked Sulli.
“Huh? Umm… I…”
“What was your job Uncle? I was often curious how you were able to provide for their needs.” Said Sulli.
“I couldn’t get a job. I was busy taking care of your mother and grand mother.” Said Sulli’s Uncle.
“Grand Ma said you don’t take care of her. It was Aunt who did that. And my mom also said she didn’t need to be in the hospital too often. Grandma told me you’re treating me like a piggybank. Are you providing for your family through the money you get from me? You’re supposed to give that to my Mom.” Sulli’s voice is nonchalant; there was no tone of anger.
