My Instant Marriage-Chapter 15 I’ll protect you no matter wha

Next day Young-soo woke up early in the morning, took a bath, and prepared French toast for breakfast to impress Eunbi. He set the table and went to dress up to go to the office. When Eunbi saw the breakfast on the table she was surprised by his preparations, she sat down on the chair, and waited for Young-soo to join. In a while he joined her on the dining table, "good morning, did you sleep well last night?" he asked her.

Eunbi just nodded her head with 'hmm'.

He served the bread omelet on her plate, "hereafter I'll prepare the breakfast, so that you may sleep some more in the morning," he said and filled a glass of milk from the carton for her.

She ignored him, "Thanks for the food," she replied and had a bite of French toast. He felt as insulted as she ignored him; anyways he just dusted it off the insult as if nothing has happened, "so… what did decide about my last night request?"

She took a sip of milk from the glass, "I decided to live with you for a year just to get the divorce from you."

He just nodded his head thinking that if he said anything it will only make her annoy so he had his breakfast with her in silence and went to his office.

Eunbi did the household works and took some rest for a while in the afternoon. She read some books in the evening at the poolside of the house, when the sun sets she gets inside the house and started to prepare the dinner. Young-soo returned back home from his office by 8 pm. While they were having their dinner he asked her about her day.

"It was such a boring day," she replied.

Young-soo could understand her situation that how stressful and bored to stay alone all day at house. He blamed himself for her situation because he has never taken her out even for once since they got married. Therefore, he asked her, "Shall we go out now?"

Bomi stopped having the food, smirked at him, "are you trying to impress me?"

His heart skipped a beat as he guessed him correctly, he quickly tries to cover it up with his lies, "I just thought taking you out will relax your mind a bit, moreover you agreed to live with me for a year, till now we have only ghastly memories of our marriage. If we have some good memories of our marriage it'll be good for us to look back once we are divorced. Therefore, if you are willing lets go out, it's your wish I'm not forcing you."

She took a few seconds to think and looked at him, "I'll come but where will go at this hour?"

He gave her a smile, "it's only 9 pm it's not too late, go change your dress let's go out and admire the night view of the island."

She agreed to go out with him even though she hesitates a bit and said, "But…"

"Yeah, stop thinking too much, I'll not eat you alive because I'm not an animal, you can come with me without any kind of fear." Young-soo replied before she finishes off her sentence.

Eunbi smiled at him and went to her room. She changed into white t-shirt with pale blue jeans pant, combed her hair as a high ponytail, applied some BB cream on her face, took her handbag, and went out of her room. To her surprise Young-soo was also wearing the matching dress as her white t-shirt with pale blue jeans pant. Young-soo was also surprised with their matching outfits but he didn't comment anything about their clothes, he just maintained as if he didn't notice anything, because he thought whether she'll change her clothes immediately as soon as if he gives any comments about their outfits.

They get into the car and Young-soo drove the car from the house. As usual the car ride was occupied with silence and even she didn't asked him where there are heading to. It took them ten minutes to reach the destination he pulled over the car at the parking area, took her to the ice-cream parlor, and said, "This is one of my favorite ice-cream parlors in the Jeju city."

Eunbi ordered cotton candy ice-cream and Young-soo ordered blue berry ice-cream roll. Once their orders were served at their table they have their ice-creams. "This was my favorite one, do you want to taste some," Young-soo asked her.

Eunbi refused his request and had her ice-cream in silence by admiring the night view of the city through the glassed walls of the ice-cream parlor. In between that she saw one of the men who harassed her few days ago at the park on the side walk of the road. She was frightened when that man gazed her and she was even more scared when that guy came into the ice-cream parlor. She quickly stood down from her chair and said, "Young-soo let's move from here now, come on get up."

Young-soo could see the fear in her eyes and couldn't guess the reason why, therefore he asked her, "What happened, are you alright, Eunbi?"

That man sat down at the one of the chairs, and watches Eunbi the way she gets frighten by seeing him.

Eunbi grabbed Young-soo's arm, "Stop questioning me, Young-soo and do what I say, go pay the bill now." He nodded his head and did what she asked. Eunbi didn't let go of his arm until they reach to their car. Young-soo was so confused and couldn't guess what was the reason for her mood swing all of a sudden. He gets into the car and asked her "where should we go now?"

"Let's go to our house," she replied.

Young-soo took a deep breath, started the car engine, and drove the car to their house without any denial. He was so upset because he was planned to go for a long ride under the city lights, thought that it'll help them get to know about each-other a bit, but his plan was wasted. In between the car ride he asked her again, "what happened why you are looking so terrified?"

"Just drive the car, Young-soo." She retort.

When they reach their house she gets down of the car and headed into the house. Young-soo followed her into the house, grabbed one of her hands, "Eunbi, I can guess something bad has happened to you but I don't know what it is, tell me what the hell has happened." He asked her.

She was annoyed as he grabbed her hand. She gave Young-soo a smack across the face, "how many times do I need to say that to not touch me without my permission."

It shocked him to the core; he cupped the harmed side of his face with his palm, released her hand from his grip, knelt down, bowed his head in front of her, "hit on me as much as you wanted to."

Eunbi did hit him on his back as harder as much as she could, "all men are the same, why you men's are not respecting the emotions and feelings of women." She screamed and sat down in front of him. She grabbed the rounded neck of his t-shirt, "tell me what you are going to achieve by touching woman against their wish, how much do I need to endure there is no safety for me both inside and outside the house, where will I go and what will I do? Why you guys are not letting me to live peacefully?"

Young-soo knelt straight and hugged her, "I'm sorry for not taking care of you as I promised to your parents, I'm sorry Eunbi, I'm sorry." He broke the hug and asked her, "Are you being stalked by someone?"

She shook her head from one side of the other. Young-soo cupped her face with his palms, "then tell me what exactly has happened?"

Eunbi explained him the incident happened to her few days before at the park in detail. Young-soo was shaken to hear that from her, and realized the hardship she has been gone through for all these days. He was so guilty for not treating her well as a good husband. He advised her to smack of those men's face without any fear if she saw those guys again anywhere else in the city, and also inform about it to him right away at that moment. Then he explained, "All men's are not the same, don't get wrong assumption about men because of the men who hurt you for their selfishness. The beast inside me has already dead I'm not the selfish Young-soo whom you know, I have changed, and I'll never allow another beast to enter into me. I promise you that I'll will protect and help you no matter what, so you please tell me if anything bad happens to you without hiding it from me. Is that clear?"

Eunbi nodded her head.

"Now go to your room and sleep peacefully without any unwanted thoughts, I'm always there for you to protect you no matter what so don't worry." Young-soo assured her.

Next day in the morning, while they were having the breakfast Eunbi apologized to Young-soo for the last night incident, "I have behaved bit violent last night, and I've never harmed anybody else before. I'm extremely sorry for that. Are you alright now or do you still feel the pain?"

"It was so painful last night but I'm alright now. And you don't have to be sorry I deserve those beatings from you," Young-soo replied. Before he leaves the house he asked her to take care and call or text him if she needs anything by exchanging their personal contact number with each-other.

That following evening Young-soo returned back home earlier than usual and took her to an orphanage which was run by the nuns. When they reach the orphanage Eunbi silently follows him by looking at the children. As they enter the office room of the orphanage, a nun in her mid-fifty welcomed the couple with a bright smile on her face and asked Young-soo, "Hello my dear son, it was such a pleasant surprise to see you back here. It has been a year since you last visited us and how are you doing, my son?"

"I am doing good, thank you, and how are you doing, mother?"

"I'm doing well too. Please take your seats." And she asks one of the staffs to bring two cups of coffee for the guests.

The couple sat down on the chairs and Young-soo introduces Eunbi to the mother, "this is my wife, Yoon Eunbi, only a week before we got married and a few days back we have moved here from Seoul for business purpose, mother."

Eunbi bowed her head to the mother in a respectful way.

The nun congratulated the couple of their marriage with a bright smile, "I am happy to hear that you got married and also to live along with us in this Island," and then she blessed the couple to live together forever happily.

The couple said, "thank you, mother," in unison.

"Your husband has helped us a lot financially even many of our children are doing their higher education under his sponsorship, and he used to visit us whenever he comes to this island." The mother said few words proudly about Young-soo to Eunbi and said, "I hope you both will take good care of each other."

"We will, mother" the couple said in unison.

As Eunbi heard those proud words about Young-soo from the mother she wondered, why did he ill-treat me when he was such a good-hearted person? Something is fishy about him; let me find out his true color.

Young-soo took his bank cheque book from his office bag, filled the amount which is required for a year ration, he signed it, carefully tore the cheque leaf from its book and asked Eunbi to give it to the mother. Eunbi nodded her head, took that cheque leaf from his hand, and she gave it to the mother with a smile. The mother received it from her and said, "thank you my dear children and God bless you both."

Young-soo asked the permission from the mother to do the volunteer works along with the other staff members of the orphanage. And the mother replied him, "of-course you are always welcomed, my dear children."

In the kitchen young-soo and Eunbi wore the aprons and helped the staff members to prepare the dinner. Eunbi admired Young-soo secretly without her knowledge the way he spoke to the staff members politely and humbly with the gentle smile on his face. It made her wonder, is this real Young-soo whom I use to know?

They had dinner along with the children's. The children's above 10 years of age wash their eaten plates of their own and placed it at the respective racks of the dining hall. While Young-soo and Eunbi washes plates of the kids who are below 10 years of age.

Two girls in their early age of 8 approached them, one girl with a pigtail hairstyle and other with a mouse-ear top knot hairstyle. The girl with a pigtail hairstyle asked Young-soo by pointing her index finger at Eunbi, "Ajusshi, shall we know what is your relationship with this Ajumma?" Young-soo knelt in front of those kids, "I think it will be better if you guys ask that question to that, Ajumma."

The girl poked Eunbi's hand and asked, "Ajumma, shall we know what is your relationship with this Ajusshi?" Eunbi knelt down next to Young-soo, "may I know why you girls are so curious to know about our relationship, do you guys like this, Ajusshi?" Eunbi asked the girls playfully.

The girls smiled shyly. "Oh my god, you two girls are looking so cute." Eunbi commented.

Young-soo removed the rubber hand gloves from his hands and held those girls hands, "Do you girls like me?" the girls nodded their heads shyly, "Ajusshi you are looking so handsome, therefore we like you," the girls said in a sync.

"Aigoo, you both are so adorable and I like you both, so you guys give me a kiss on my cheeks." The girls giggled together and gave him a kiss on his cheeks one after another and then the girl with a pigtail hairstyle asked Eunbi again, "Ajumma, now tell me what is your relationship with this, Ajusshi?

Eunbi took a deep breath and gave them a smile, "actually we are married so this Ajusshi is my husband."

Young-soo's heart skipped a beat as Eunbi mentioned him as her husband.

Actually Eunbi doesn't wanted to mention him as her husband to those girls, but as she saw that the mother was watching them she just told the girls the truth about their relationship.

The girls sighed sadly. However, Young-soo cheered them, "don't worry girls she may be my wife but I like you girls more than her because you two are looking so beautiful and adorable." The girls giggled cutely as soon he said that to them. The girl with a mouse-ear top knot hairstyle said sweetly, "Ajumma, don't look sad you are also looking so pretty like a doll." Eunbi was amazed and widen her eyes to that girl's comment. She hugged the girls together and gave them a kisses over their cheeks.

Then the girls waved their hands, said bye ~ and good night to the couple, and went to sleep in the dormitory.

After finish washing all the plates Eunbi and Young-soo returned back to their house.
