your wedding

STEP 04

11:26 AM

정여주

I'm leaving now. It'll take about 20 minutes.

11:29 AM

전정국

Come carefully.

After sending a text message saying they were leaving, Yeo-ju was looking for Cha-ki until Jeong-guk replied.

정여주

I thought it would be in the bag…

Since Yoon-ki was mostly driving, Yeo-ju had no idea where Cha-ki might be. She searched for him in conspicuous places and found him on a side table in front of a TV she rarely watched.

정여주

Ah, here it is… … .

And there was also a ring that Taehyung had given me as a gift.

The ring I received as a 100-day anniversary gift. It's been over four years since I received it, but it still sparkled like new. Perhaps it was because I treasured it so much that I didn't wear it often.

At the beginning of their relationship, Taehyung didn't like to reveal his feelings, which meant he was reluctant to give thoughtful gifts. So, the ring he gave her couldn't help but be precious.

Taehyung, dumbfounded by the female protagonist's claim that it was too precious to wear, ended up gifting her a couple ring of the same model. So, while the female protagonist now wears the same ring on her hand, strangely, the two rings don't feel the same.

The heroine thought for a moment, then hardened her face and put the ring in the top drawer of her bedroom dresser.

I've always kept it here, but the fact that it's out in the living room must be proof that I took the ring out and made a big fuss yesterday. I cried so much, I don't even remember it, even though I wasn't drinking, so I'll say it.

The heroine, who had lowered her gaze to the ring on her hand, soon left the house with only the ring mark on her hand.

전정국

•Where is it?

정여주

•This time, you didn't even give me time to say hello.

전정국

•…….

정여주

•…hello?

전정국

•Okay, I did it. I arrived, but where am I?

정여주

•Huh… I’m almost there. It’s just the intersection ahead, but the traffic light is on. Even Jeon Jungkook isn’t a gentleman. He couldn’t wait for those few minutes, so he finished making the phone call.

전정국

•I see a white car. Is that it?

정여주

•Wow, you're beating around the bush. Yes, that's right.

전정국

I thought I got hit again.

Jungkook jokingly spoke to her as he got into the stopped car. Yeoju responded with a hollow laugh. "You're worried, even though this is our first time meeting. Do I look like I'm good at keeping up with the wind?"

정여주

I'm not that kind of person. Do you like seafood?

The female protagonist, who confirmed that Jeongguk was putting on his seat belt, stepped on the accelerator and asked.

전정국

I like it, especially grilled clams.

정여주

I'm not going to eat grilled clams. I'm going to buy them, so I can go wherever I want, right?

전정국

Yes, well. I came out to change Jeong Yeo-ju's mood.

After that, the two didn't exchange another word until they arrived at the store. The car was filled with noise, but neither of them seemed uncomfortable.

Yeoju and Jeongguk. Both were absorbed in the menu. Yeoju had already decided on what to order, but perhaps because she was with someone new, she felt the urge to try something new.

정여주

What do you want to eat? There are so many options on the menu, it's hard to decide.

전정국

If you know, please recommend some. I don't come to places like this often, so I don't know what's good.

정여주

Then let's eat seafood pasta. People who like seafood eat it a lot.

전정국

hmm….

정여주

…….

The female protagonist, who had unconsciously brought up Taehyung's story, instinctively shut her mouth as soon as she spoke. Because of this, Jungkook also noticed to some extent and let out a strange groan.

전정국

Well, I'm the one who asked for a recommendation, so I'll do that.

정여주

… Yes, then.

Yeoju, who had called the waiter and ordered the sirloin cream pasta and seafood pasta, was still fiddling with her phone, which was not ringing.

전정국

It doesn't seem like you have any business, but put your phone down and look at me.

정여주

You're watching it now.

After mentioning Taehyung earlier, Yeoju realized she was visiting a place they usually visited alone, but now she was with someone new. The unfamiliar experience prevented her from meeting Jungkook's eyes until the food arrived.

전정국

I think I should have done the same thing as Jeong Yeo-ju.

정여주

It must be delicious, right? If you want some, take some now.

전정국

I feel like I've been tricked by Jeong Yeo-ju right now.

정여주

What is it?

전정국

Didn't I say that I like meat more than seafood?

정여주

Stop joking and hurry up and eat. I'm hungry.

The female protagonist looked at Jeong-guk with a rather stern look and said.

전정국

You were trying to avoid eye contact earlier…

Jungkook muttered in disbelief and poured Yeoju's pasta onto his plate.

정여주

thank you for this food.

The female protagonist, muttering as if it were a habit, picked up the largest piece of meat with a fork and brought it to her mouth.

정여주

Ugh… .

The female lead and Jeong-guk, startled by the unexpected nausea, looked at each other with surprised rabbit eyes.

전정국

What just now?

정여주

Is it because I’m hungry? Why am I like this…?

전정국

It's not that I didn't feel like it, it's that I wasn't in the mood for it. If I hadn't been in the body, I wouldn't have asked to see you today.

정여주

That's not it. Ah… .

The woman, who once again brought the fork to her lips, almost immediately covered her nose and mouth with her hands. The meat she usually enjoyed so much felt particularly repulsive today. Is this what the smell of meat is like?

전정국

Are you sure it's okay?

정여주

I told you it's okay. Go ahead and eat. I'll eat when I calm down.

The heroine, still in constant turmoil, gave up eating, leaned back in her chair, and took a deep breath. Jungkook, who had been quietly watching her, suddenly jumped up from his seat and headed to the counter, as if something had occurred to him.

Jeong-guk, who returned to his seat, lifted Yeo-ju up from her seat and led her out of the store.

정여주

No, wait a minute! Even if you leave, you still have to pay…

전정국

I did it.

When the surprised female protagonist brought up the issue of the bill, Jeongguk took out a card from his pocket without even looking back.

Hello! Thank you for reading today♡

I think it ended too awkwardly, though…

I think if I write more it will be too much, so I'll stop here for today.

If you enjoyed reading this, please give it a thumbs up and a like!
