Emergency Couple

Part 11: Eomma

I heard laughs and hands clapping. I sneaked to see the unwanted guests who came to my house. Suddenly, I hit an umbrella and I fell down exactly in front of the door.

Eomma: Yah, Jiyongi. What are you doing there?

I saw eomma, appa, Dami noona and of course, Truly-ssi.

Noona: Yah donsaeng, I brought the outfits from my boutique. I'm sure that you are glad to see them!

I stood up and rubbed my knee.

Eomma: Truly-ssi, yesterday, Dami eonni went to a fashion show. He found Dongwook-ssi. Were both of you dating?

Me: Aniya!

Noona: Heh? We saw the article in the social media.

Me: Aniya ... It wasn't Truly-ssi.

I sat beside Truly.

Truly: Actually ...

Me: We will engage next week!

Eomma: Jinjja? Aigoo ... Jiyongi ... Saranghaeyo.

Me: It's for you eomma.

Noona: Jiyong-nim, can I talk with you personally?

Me: Sure.

We walked to the kitchen and Dami noona held my hands.

Noona: Tell me the truth. What is going on here? She is Dongwook oppa's. What are you doing? The whole media will curse you and you will lock yourself again in the room! What will eomma feel when you tell her that both of you are in a fake relationship? Jiyongi ...

Me: Noona ... ( sighed ) Eomma met her. If I said she wasn't the girl, eomma will fall sick again.

Noona: You can tell eomma that the girl wasn't there. Aigoo babo babo. ( sighed ) How about Dongwook oppa?

Me: We've made promises.

Noona: Jinjja? Aigoo Jiyongi! Babo ...

Me: Can I ask you something?

Noona: Mwo?

Me: Who had opened the door for you guys?

Noona: Truly-ssi.

Me: But I saw ... Nevermind.

Noona: Saw what?

Me: Nothing.

Noona: Nah ... You have to tell eomma as soon as possible. I'm afraid that ... Her disease make a comeback.

Me: What are you talking about? Mwo? Eomma's disease is a band or what? Aigoo it was my fault!

Dami noona chuckled.

Noona: So how?

Me: Molla 😭

Suddenly, we heard a crack sound came from the living room.

Eomma: Mworago?!

Truly: Ahjumma ...

I ran to get Truly-ssi.

Noona: Eomma wae?!

Eomma: Who is this girl? What did she do here?!

Noona: Eomma this is Truly-ssi. Jiyongi's girlfriend!

Suddenly, eomma laughed and clapped her hands.

Eomma: Jinjja? Annyeong, Truly-ssi. Come here, ppalli.

Truly hugged me tightly.

Me: Just go. She's okay.

Truly walked carefully and eomma hugged her.

Eomma: So, you are the one ... Who hit my head?! Look, I am crazy now! Are you satisfied?!

Noona: Eomma!

Appa came to help us. He grabbed eomma's body and I grabbed Truly's body.

Me: Noona, take her medicine! Gwaenchanha Truly-ssi?

Truly: Oppa ...

She was crying in my arms. Eomma fell asleep after we injected the medicine into her body.

Truly: Oppa ... I'm scared.

Me: What had happened actually?

Truly: Molla. Ahjumma suddenly took the vase and threw it to me. I'm scared oppa ...

Me: Come here.

I gave her a warm hug.

Truly: Urm Dongwook oppa is calling me.

She talked with Dongwook hyung at the corner of the room.

Truly: I need to go.

Me: Ah Truly-ssi. Urm ... I ...

Truly: Gwaenchanha. I won't hate your eomma. I'm just scared.

Me: Ani. Urm ...

Truly: Ppalli, Dongwook oppa is waiting for me.

Me: Nothing. I just want to wish you luck. Fighting!

Truly: Gomawo. Ouh here the keys.

Me: What keys?

Truly: Dongwook oppa bought me a car too. I think his car was better than yours ... Mianhae? 😥

She bit her lips because she felt guilty.

Me: Gwaenchanha. I can give this to Dami noona or my friends.

Truly: Keep that for your future wife.

Me: Truly! I saw something at your face.

Truly: Mwo?

Me: Pimples!

Truly: Babo!
