My Instant Marriage-Chapter 6 In his home
It took an hour to reach his home. Young-soo shook Eunbi's shoulder gently to wake her up she made a small mewling sound like a kid and opened her eyes slowly. He shook his head in displeased and said, "I'm married to a sleep headed woman, yah! Now get down from the car we are reached." She rubbed her eyes softly and get down from the car. They walked into the home by holding their hands as a happy couple and his parent welcomed then with a warm smile on their faces. Soon after they reach his mother took them to the dining room to have the first breakfast together in the house.
But Young-soo asked his mother to bring his breakfast to his room as usual. His mother requested him to have the breakfast with them saying, "Please, Young-soo have your breakfast along with us only for today."
"But, mom-"
Before he completes the sentence his mother requested him once again, "Please Young-soo, I'll ask the entire housemaid to stay in their rooms."
He couldn't resist when his mother pleads him to do something, therefore he agreed to have his breakfast along with them with a condition that she should not request this to him again on some-other day.
His mother nodded her head in agreement and asked the housemaid to go to their allotted room until she calls them back.
Eunbi was clueless and wondered; why the entire housemaid should need to get into their allotted room if he wants to have the breakfast in the dining room.
Mr. Lee asked Eunbi, "Are you wondering the reason why she is pleading him to have breakfast along with us, daughter?"
Eunbi felt awkward as Mr. Lee reads her mind correctly, and she nodded her head in awkwardness.
Mr. Lee gave her a gentle smile, "you don't need to feel awkward to ask me whatever you wanted to know, my daughter. Now Young-soo is your husband so you have full rights to know about him. My son doesn't like the housemaids he usually eats his food in his room and stay in his room once he gets back from his work, and he is a mama's boy." He explained.
Weird guy she said in her mind.
In the dining room, Young-soo sat down on the chair next to Eunbi and his parents sat opposite to them. Mrs. Lee served the food for all. Eunbi felt uncomfortable to eat with them it was so difficult for her to accept the sudden changes of her life. Mr. Lee noticed her and asked her to feel free and make herself comfortable like how she used to be at her home.
She forced a smile and said, "Sure, Abeonim."
Mrs. Lee pointed out at Young-soo's lips and asked, "What happened to your lips? How did you get that wound on your lips?"
Both Young-soo and Eunbi widened their eyes for Mrs. Lee's unexpected question. Young-soo touched his lips with his index finger and covered it up with a lie, saying, "It's nothing mom, I-I myself bitted my lips accidentally." Then he quickly changed the topic by asking his mother to serve him some more soup.
Mrs. Lee smiled at her son and Mr. Lee joined the conversation, "Yeobo, will you stop asking silly questions, you don't know that it's not a big deal at all for a newly married couple?" He teased them. And then he asked Young-soo, "Do you have any plans of going for a honeymoon?"
Young-soo stopped having the food, replied his father, "No dad I don't have any plans on going for a honeymoon, you know that I'm pretty busy with our business."
Mr. Lee nodded his head in agreement, "do you know that our branch hotel in Jeju Island is running with low profit for the last few months?"
"Yes dad I knew about that and I have received some complaints about the CEO of that branch and also I knew that his work contract is going to end soon." Young-soo replied.
"Thank god for knowing about that, my son. The CEO's work contract is going to end at the end of this month I don't have plan on renew his contract. So instead of him you take over his designation because only you can make the dramatic changes by becoming a new CEO to that branch."
"But dad, this month is going to end in couple of days and I have got lots of commitment."
"I know what do you meant by commitments, you are not going alone. You are going along with your wife Eunbi. You told me that you don't have time to go for a honeymoon. If you take over our Jeju branch it will be as if you went for a honeymoon and at the same time you can look after our business too. Look Young-soo, your mother feels that I have put too much of business pressure on you. Now you are married man so spend some time with your wife and enjoy your marriage life. From now on you are the new CEO to our Jeju branch and you are going to take handle only that branch. I'll handle the rest of our branches so I hope that you guys will prepare your mind and get ready to fly to Jeju Island in couple of days." His father explained him.
"But, dad…"
Mr. Lee stopped Young-soo, saying, "No more buts this is my final decision."
Eunbi breathed with humiliation and thought, why nobody is asking about my opinion whether I'm interested to go to Jeju Island with my so called f**king husband or not. I have to open up about my thoughts even though they are not asking my opinion. She cleared her throat to draw their attentions, "I'm sorry to interrupt your conversations Abeonim, if I go to Jeju Island how could I continue my studies? I have one more year ahead to complete my master's degree."
"You don't need to worry about your studies, daughter. You can continue your studies in one of the universities at Jeju Island. Young-soo will help you to do all the procedure for your college transfer and also to enroll you in one of the universities at Jeju Island." Mr. Lee assured her.
Actually she doesn't like Mr. Lee's idea but she just nodded her head in acceptance and thanked him.
After the breakfast Mrs. Lee toured the home for Eunbi. She showed her Young-soo's room and said, "from now on it's also your room, and do you like the room?"
Eunbi looked around the room- it was a classic bedroom, the wall was painted in half-white in color, a queen sized bed and a couch next to it, a rectangular shaped dining table, and a walk in wardrobe. "Yes Eomonim, I like the room it looks so decent and everything was neatly organized." She replied.
Mrs. Lee smiled at her and explained, "Young-soo is a perfectionist he needs each and everything should be perfect. He doesn't like the housemaids, once he go to his office I ask the housemaids to clean his room and laundry his clothes. I hope that soon you will get adapt to one of his weirdest behaviors.
"Sure, Eomonim." Eunbi replied.
"Aigoo, my daughter-in-law is such a confident woman. Come with me I'll show you his childhood pictures." Mrs. Lee said and took Eunbi to her room. There she showed some childhood pictures of Young-soo, explaining about the pleasant incident before they took those pictures, and she shared few words of her son. "Young-soo used to share each and everything with me and I'm so proud to tell that he is a mama's boy. Being a single child he never asked us he wants this and that, he is such a kind hearted guy. He is not a guy who runs after business he knows the meaning for love, care and affection. When he was studying his high school he told me about his feelings for a girl. But he was afraid to confess his love to that girl. When he was studying in college, he told me that he has tried so many times to confess his love to that girl but he couldn't.
After the graduation he took handle our families business and started to run after the business. I asked him few months ago whether he's still having feelings for that girl. He told me it was just an infatuation. I knew he was hiding his feelings because of me. It's all because of me and my husband we put lots of business pressure on him, so he didn't have time to confess his love to that girl and go out for a date like other youngsters. We decided to get him married so that he can date his life partner and lead a happy life. When his father told him that he has arranged a marriage with your elder sister and Young-soo accepted to get marry your elder sister without any denial.
Eunbi, you may think why I'm telling all these stories to you now. Do you know the reason why my son asked you to marry him? It's because he couldn't resist when elder's suffers emotionally. He respects elders and their feelings also he cares about his beloved ones. So, please try to understand him, my dear." Mrs. Lee explained.
Eunbi forced a smile on her face, thought, what you are thinking about your son it's not the real him, he is a monster. She gave a fake assurance saying, "sure, eomonim."
Mrs. Lee smiled in return, and asked her, "Shall we watch some movies?"
Eunbi nodded her head.
Mrs. Lee played some romantic movies on the DVD player in her room. They both didn't get away from the room they had their lunch and dinner by watching the movies back to back without a break. Eunbi had fun by watching movies with Mrs. Lee and she felt so comfortable with her mother-in-law.
Young-soo returned back home from his work at 10.30 pm. As soon he entered the home his father informed him that Eunbi has been watching back to back movies since from morning with Mrs. Lee in her room. Young-soo was happy to hear that from his father that she gets along with his mother quickly. He freshened up, changed into his favorite track pant and t-shirt, went to his mother's room, and asked, "Mom, what are you doing? Are you guys still watching the movies do know what the time now is?"
His mother shushed him by putting her index finger over her lips and she gestured him to come and sit next to her. He chuckled, slowly walked towards her, and sat down right next to her on the bed.
"Don't talk too loud, your wife is sleeping. Look at your wife she looks so cute while sleeping." His mother commented.
Young-soo smiled and nodded his head up and down to his mother's comment.
All of a sudden Mrs. Lee started to advice him. "Young-soo, you should take good care of her and make her life colorful. Don't make her feel lonely she would have never imagined that she would be getting married in a short period. At this age she has many dreams and desire about her life and carrier. As a husband you should support and motivate her dreams and respect her feelings. Don't force her for anything, first you guys try to know about each other well. Share your thoughts and pleasant memories with her and spend lots and lots of your free times with her. You are a grown up man, Young-soo so I don't need to advice you a lot, I hope that you will take good care of your wife."
Young-soo nodded his head in understanding.
Mrs. Lee gently patted Young-soo's shoulder, and said, "It's time to sleep; now carry your wife in your arms and take her to your room without waking her up."
"Mom, are you kidding me? I can't do that."
Mrs. Lee slapped his shoulder, "can't you see that she is sleeping? You don't know that you should not wake up a person from their sleep for an unnecessary reason. Now gently lift her up in your arms and take her to your room without waking her up." She demanded.
"I can't win against you, mom," Young-soo replied and walked near to Eunbi, he carefully carried up her in his arms in a bridal style and slowly walked to his room. He gently laid her down on his bed, and then he lay down next to her on the bed, covered their body with a blanket, and drifted off to sleep.
