PARK JONGSEONG'S WEDDING HALL
You had never felt so humiliated in your life.
“Her family is ridden with problems! Her father isn't dead at all! He's very much alive. Her mother cheated on him with another man, and then ran to New York. You know what type of scandal this would’ve caused for us? We have a reputation to uphold! You have a reputation to uphold! Do you or do you not understand that!?”
“Mom, you had no right to do this, Yn w--”
“Would you be rational for once!?” Mrs.Lee exclaims, “Do you or do you not?”
“I understand perfectly that you’ve just violated my girlfriend’s priva--”
“Our family cannot be associated with a family like hers,” she hisses, venom dripping from her words. You bite back tears, your fists clenching angrily.
"She wouldn't lie about something like this," Heeseung quietly says.
"The proof's in the paper," his mother hisses, "This woman can absolutely not be associated with us whatsoever,"
Humiliation.
Shame.
Hatred.
“Well good for you,” you whisper, “I don’t want part of this shitty family anyways,” you turn around, and then run because that's the only way that you can hide the tears that drip from your eyes as you leave behind the man you had thought was your forever.
PRESENT DAY
“You know you can just order your own right?” you grumble, watching as your boyfriend takes a giant chunk of ramen from your bowl. You stare at his barely touched sushi.
“Nah I’m good with my sushi rolls,” he grins shamelessly.
“Evan,” you groan, “You always say that and end up eating everything,”
“No I don’t!” he laughs.
“Excuse me?” you call, catching the attention of your waitress, “Sorry could we get another bowl of tonkatsu ramen? Thank you!”
“Hey! You’re so dramatic, it’s not like i’m stealing,” he exclaims, “It’s sharing,”
“Sharing?” you echo, “You can’t be serious right? Pay me back for those giant bites you took idiot!”
“Sure Yn, whatever makes you happy,”
“Pay up if you want me to be happy,” you tease.
“But. . .” he starts, “I think I have something that might make you happier,”
“Oh yeah?”
“How about us taking a trip to the East?”
“Like. . .” you say, taking a sip of broth, “The East Village?” he laughs at your words, ruffling your hair teasingly.
“No, like South Korea. For spring break,” he says, “It’s for Jay’s wedding. We’ve been dating for almost two years now, I think it’s time you meet my family and friends,”
“Seriously Evan?” you laugh in disbelief.
“So serious,” he grins, “And you can even meet up with that. . interesting friend of yours again, the college roommate?”
“Haewon?” you grin, “Well she has been asking me to visit her,”
“Perfect!” he says, “Wouldya look at that, it’s fate,” you smile at his words, and he reaches over the table to grasp your hand, “So what do you say? Will you, Yn Sohn, come with me to Korea?”
“How could I say no now?” you giggle, he leans in, pressing a chaste kiss to your forehead. And from two tables over, a girl narrows her eyes at the scene, a smirk growing on her lips. She stands up confidently, clad in an exspensive chanel jacket and mini skirt.
She struts through the restaurant to the door, extending her hand out to take a selfie. She slows down as she walks by the scene in front of her, snaps a photo, before furiously typing into her phone.
She grins.
