You're My Present

Part 26

Irene and Krystal stroll at town on weekend. The younger Kim doesn’t want to stay at home because she escapes from meeting her parent. She always try to avoid seeing them especially at dining table because she don’t want to talk about the arrange marriage.

As they walking, Krystal is curious when Irene keeps silent and not says anything. She getting bored because they walk aimlessly

“Yah, are you keeping your mouth shut until night?” Krystal complain
“Ayyy, just walk and shut up” Irene rolled her eyes annoyingly
“I’m tired and I don’t know where on earth we are going”
“Soojung, I just need some peace. Stop whining”
“Then why you call me to come if you need peace? Now you’re mute yourself and I walk like a dog following you here and there without knowing where we go”
Irene groans “Tell me where you want to go?”
“I want to eat, it almost dinner time”
“Eat what?”
“Food”
Irene snort “I know you eat food but there are many type of food in this world. Dog food? Cat food? Pig food?”
“You see me as animal now?!” Krystal glare murderously at Irene
“Not saying” Irene shrug her shoulder
“Then you listing animal food, what is that?!” Krystal rolled her eyes
“Quit nagging; just tell me what you want to eat” Irene rubbed her temple “Why on earth I call you to come? It better if I call Yeri or Seulgi” she groan
Krystal slap Irene shoulder “Don’t say anyone name when you with me. I want to eat American food. N-O-W, right now!”
“Go ahead Ms. Icy Jung” Irene said sarcastically and they go to nearby western restaurant

After having dinner, both of them leave the restaurant. Suddenly Krystal shoulder bump with someone and she fall to the ground

“Ouchhh!” she hissed and Irene quickly help him “Yah can you at least have your eyes forward when walking?!” she yell
“I’m sorry miss, I’m rushing just now” the guy said
Irene turns her head up when she heard the guy voice “Son Seungwan?” she furrowed her eyebrows then she help Krystal stand up
“Irene, what are you doing here?” the guy named Son Seungwan startled when he saw Irene
“I go out with my friend, why?”
“Nothing, just asking. Hey, can we talk about our parents plan? Just for few minutes”
“Okay” Irene said and she look at Krystal “Soojung, can you wait at my car? I want to talk to him for a while”
“Ok” Krystal leaved both of them

“What is it Wayne?” said Irene
“Do you agree with their plan?” the guy asked
“To be honest, I not agree with them”
“Did they know?”
“I don’t meet them these days” Irene sighs
“You avoid them?”
“Em…yeah because I don’t want to talk about that” Irene said awkwardly
“Hm, I also want to avoid that topic but my mom so sharp and don’t let me free” Wayne sighs
“Wayne, I don’t want this marriage. It’s not that I don’t want you but we know each other since before and you’re like best friend for me” Irene said apologetically
“I also not agree with them but sometimes my parents so persistent. They really want you or your sister to be their daughter-in-law. They choose you because your parent said your older sister date someone”
“Do they know you against all this?”
“They don’t know but I’ll try to tell them one day and I hope they understand”
“I also hope they understand” Irene said with relief because the guy that suppose to be her husband also reject their family plan
“Yeah, got to go now”
“Ok”

Irene goes to her car quickly because she worries about Krystal

“Soojung, do you hurt somewhere?” she asked worriedly soon as she enter her car
“My palms just scratch a bit but its ok”
“Let me see” Irene said and Krystal show her injured palm “It bad Soojungie, let treat it at my private suite”
“It’s ok Juhyun”
“No is not accepted” Irene said and Krystal give in

…………………

“Juhyun-ah, do it softly. It hurt” Krystal whine
“You said it not bad so how can it hurt” Irene playfully pressed the cotton to Krystal palm
“Juhyun!!” Krystal shout
“Ok, ok don’t shout” Irene laughed “Done” she said and throws the cotton to dustbin
“When you want to send me home? It’s quite late now” Krystal check her watch and it 8 PM
“Can you stay overnight here, with me?”
“But I don’t have spare clothes”
“I have lot of clothes here. I bring half of them from home” Irene pointed at her dresser
“Ok” Krystal agree
“Inform your family first. Don’t make them worry, they’ll think I kidnap you then tomorrow I’ll appear at news highlight”
“Alright” Krystal dialed her mother phone number and make phone call. After few minutes, she end the call “Mom say good night to you”
