Windows of The Heart

Chapter Fifteen Weird Couple

"Sir, it was only a misunderstanding because my husband protected me, especially since I am pregnant!" Hyun-Ki turned to Rielle with a puzzled look. He gave a dog smile and thought of Rielle's defense as funny.

Hyun-Ki was standing by Rielle's door with his arms folded and, at the same time, whistling a happy tune, waiting for her to dress up for their beach getaway. And when she came out, Hyun-Ki gave her a jaw-drop look. Rielle dressed in very short denim shorts and a loose white blouse where the front was tucked-in in her shorts, and the loose ends of the rest of her blouse were hanging behind her back. Her white rubber shoes were a good match for her outfit. She was also wearing a straw summer sun hat with a blue ribbon tied around the top of her hat.

"Wow, Rielle! You're stunning, so beautiful, and so sexy." Admiring at her looks.

' "But wait, I have to change my outfit, or else I will be out of place." Hyun-Ki came out of his room wearing blue denim shorts, black sneakers, and a grey sando shirt, showing his masculinity with a white summer beach sun hat.

The two loving couples went inside a resort store once they arrived to buy a swimsuit for Rielle.

"Don't you think this swimsuit is too revealing?" she asked the sales clerk. The swimsuit Hyun-Ki picked for her was a one-piece backless lake blue bikini swimsuit, and for Rielle, it was her first time wearing such swimwear.

"Oh, ma'am, it suits you perfectly! You have such a beautiful body, so sexy!" the clerk is encouraging.

The clerk opened the door of the fitting room to show Rielle's bathing suit to Hyun-Ki. The smile on Rielle's face dropped into dismay, and she frowned when she saw Hyun-Ki entertaining some ladies around him.

"Oh my! Look at my sugar already swarmed by hungry ants!" Rielle spoke out loud in a jealous tone while closing in on him.

Hyun-Ki was startled and turned around to see Rielle in that revealing swimsuit, and her sudden presence made the ladies around him look at her and slowly shied away and leave as if embarrassed by her beauty.

Her looks flustered Hyun-Ki simultaneously; he could not remove his eyes from her sexy body, especially in that swimsuit she was wearing. Rielle, in turn, frowned and turned her back to him, returning to the fitting room.

"Rielle, wait! Please don't go away; I didn't mean to be engaging. They are just talking to me!" he defensively remarked. "And I like that swimsuit; it befits you, sweetheart!" his follow-up remark.

Rielle was pleased that Hyun-Ki liked her swimsuit but was doubtful of his sincerity when he called her 'sweetheart'; thinking that he wanted to appease her, she decided to come out of the fitting room and snubbed Hyun-Ki and turned to the clerk instead to make a suggestion.

"Do you have a body cover because I'm not used to walking with this revealing swimsuit and a sunscreen lotion to protect my skin?"

"You mean a sarong, ma'am? Yes, we have, and also the sunscreen for your skin." When the clerk handed it to her, she wrapped the sarong around her body, and the clerk slightly laughed.

"This is the way you should wear the sarong, ma'am. You put this around you vertically and then tie the ends behind your neck." Demonstrated the clerk as she wrapped it around Rielle.

Rielle was happy to learn it then she asked the clerk to rub the lotion on her back.

"Shouldn't your partner do that for you, ma'am?" the clerk suggested and smiled. Rielle looked at her hesitantly and timidly insisted that she do it for her. Hyun-Ki was amused at how Rielle was reacting, and he went beside her, gave her a naughty look, took the lotion, and poured some on his palm.

"I'll do it, sweetheart." Rielle was so irritated and pissed off that she took the lotion back and handed it to the clerk. "Do this for me, please, or I'll take off this swimsuit; you'll never have a sale today!" The clerk was about to laugh because of the way the couples were acting weirdly.

"Okay, ma'am, I'll do it." And taking back the lotion from Hyun-Ki, commented, "You made her jealous, Sir." Hyun-Ki winked at the clerk with approval, then held Rielle close to him, apologizing, so Rielle calmed down.

When on the beach, everyone can't help but take glances at her in a red swimsuit because of her perfect body figure, her sexiness, her beautiful face Hyun-Ki felt insecurity creeping in on him. He grabbed her by the hand and clutched it so every man would see her as his girl. Then he brought her by the seashore and suggested they take a boat ride. The boatman rode them to the middle of the sea, where Hyun-Ki prefers to swim then go to another island for them to see and perhaps bask in the sun.

While sailing in the middle of the sea, Rielle looked pale as if she was afraid of something. Hyun-Ki was bothered, so he told the boatman to bring them back by the seashore. They walked by the swimming pool instead, and Hyun-Ki got her by the pool benches and had her lie there to rest.

"I'll get some fresh drinks and something to eat." He said to Rielle.

While Rielle was lying on the bench pool, a man sat on the bench pool beside her. He looked charming with good looks, army-cut hair, and a thin blue polo shirt covering his muscular body. He glanced at Rielle, then offered his hand as he introduced himself. Rielle did not move, just stared at him when Hyun-Ki came with a tray of fresh drinks and sandwiches.

Hyun-Ki did not want the way the man was staring at Rielle, so he abruptly stood close to the man and shoved him away as if challenging him for a fight. The man got irritated and pushed Hyun-Ki hard

Hyun-Ki was about to punch back, but they stopped when Rielle shouted:

"Stop it! He is my husband you are about to punch; you fool!"

The Security came in the middle to stop them and demanded they be brought to the Security Office to settle their differences. Hyun-Ki and the man followed the Security Officer and advised Rielle to wait for him, but Rielle followed suit.

The two men started to argue again when Rielle butt in.

"Sir, it was only a misunderstanding because my husband was being protective of me, especially since I am pregnant!" Hyun-Ki turned to Rielle with a puzzled look. He gave a dog smile and thought of Rielle's defense as funny. The man whom Hyun-Ki challenged looked at them both, and stared at Rielle closely, in doubt of her explanation because by just looking at her body she's lying. Decided then to give way just to end this trouble. Both were freed to go but asked of them to shake hands and let their disagreement slide.

Hyun-Ki wrapped his arm around Rielle while they walked without speaking but when they get back to the pool benches, he can no longer control his elation that he suddenly laughed so loud.
