Weekend visitor
Chunhee blinked. Did he hear it right? A visitor? On a weekend?
Eyebrows raised, he shrugged and casually waved a hand. "Tell the visitor to wait until I'm done taking a shower." Even if the time was past 9 in the morning, wasn't that visitor too early?
"But, young master, the visitor is—"
Chunhee didn't even bother to listen to the maid he yawned and proceeded to walk to the bathroom, closed it behind, then turned the shower on. Who cared about that visitor anyway? He had more important things to do for today. Surely, that visitor could wait if they could come without notice ah!
Experiencing different life times made Chunhee realize one thing – no matter what era or timeline, there were still people who lacked right conduct and good manners. Such as this visitor! Didn't that visitor know coming unannounced was considered rude? Didn't that visitor know there were those people who needed to take good shower to erase the bitter tastes of their nightmares? Tsk, tsk. Such rudeness shouldn't be condoned, ah.
Meanwhile, in the living room of the Han residence…
An extremely handsome man sat straight as Mr. and Mrs. Han faced him with a smile on both of their faces. Even from this angle, it would only take one glance to see the two elder people felt warm and gentle towards the young lad.
On the other hand, the young man stayed on his position, his fair skin and exquisite boyish charms dominating the spacious living area – whether he knew or not about it was unknown. What was only evident was the emotion he had at the present – it was cold as ice. It was the exact opposite of what the two unaware older people who had soft and admirable gazes on him.
"Yujin-ah, I didn't know you're this enthusiastic to see our boy. As Chunhee's mother, I'm really glad to see you two are doing well," Mrs. Han said with a warm smile. "I hope you don't mind waiting for him. He he he…"
"I don't mind," Yujin respectfully responded, much to both Chunhee's parents' delight.
In truth, Yujin and Chunhee had been close and almost inseparable when they were kids. This brought the idea to both of their parents that they were getting along even now that they had reached high school. No one dared to ask how the relationship had been going between them anymore as they all assumed Yujin and Chunhee were "together".
At least, they were conditioned to think that way.
Whether it was then or now, there were just some things that didn't need to be explained. And the relationship between Yujin and Chunhee fell to that category. It just felt, somehow, real and a "must", Even when people tried to think or feel about it, it would naturally lead them back to that idea – they were together.
They needed to be, or more like, they had always been and always will be.
Needless to say, these emotions and thoughts that occasionally visited the people around them didn't continue to live for more than a minute. They come and go easily and quickly. Before anyone could ponder and question further about it, they were already pulled back and had already been returned to their original states and "must" roles to fulfill.
Like water constantly flowing, fate lived in that river. Where time and space didn't hold much power, and only the sail and direction mattered, its course remained the same – unstoppable, uncontrolled, and unchanged.
"Right. Yujin, you said you want to tell us something? What is it all about? Hmm, could it be, Chunhee gave you some troubles while we're away?" Mr. Han asked with a considerate face, completely unaware of his character.
Park Yujin looked at the two people with a face that was neutrally cold and distant. With a voice void of emotion, he said, "About that, there is something I do want to inform you, Mr. and Mrs. Han."
Mr. and Mrs. Han, Chunhee's parents, looked at each other before they turned back to Yujin.
Then Yujin's eyes icily glowed as he spoke, "It's about the engagement between Chunhee and I."
