It took an hour to reach his home. Young-soo gently shook her shoulder to wake her up, "Eunbi, wake up, we are reached."
She opened her eyes slowly, rubbed her eyes gently with her index finger, and got down from the car. They walked into the home by holding each-others hands and his parent welcomed them with a warm smile on their faces. Soon after they reach, his mother took them to the dining room to have the first breakfast together with Eunbi in the house.
But, Young-soo asked his mother to bring his breakfast to his room as usual. His mother requested him to have the breakfast with them, "Please, Young-soo have your breakfast along with us just this once."
"But, mom-"
Before he completes the sentence his mother requested him once again, "Please Young-soo, I'll ask the entire housemaid to stay in their rooms."
He couldn't resist when his mother pleaded him to do something, therefore he agreed to have his breakfast along with them with a condition that she should not request this to him again on some-other day.
His mother nodded her head in agreement and asked the housemaid to go to their allotted room until she calls them back.
Eunbi was clueless and wondered; why the entire housemaid should need to get into their allotted room if he wants to have the breakfast in the dining room.
Mr. Lee asked Eunbi, "Are you wondering the reason why she is pleading him to have breakfast along with us, daughter?"
Eunbi felt awkward as Mr. Lee reads her mind correctly, and she nodded her head in awkwardness.
Mr. Lee gave her a gentle smile, "you don't need to feel awkward to ask me whatever you wanted to know, my daughter. Because Young-soo is your husband so you have full rights to know about him. My son doesn't like the housemaids he usually eats his food in his room and stay in his room once he gets back from his work, and he is a mama's boy." He explained.
'Weird guy,' she said to herself in her mind and nodded her head.
In the dining room, Young-soo sat down on the chair next to Eunbi and his parents sat parallel to them. Mrs. Lee served the food to all. Eunbi felt bit uncomfortable to eat with them as she tries to get adapt to the new changes of her life. Mr. Lee noticed her and asked her to feel free and make herself comfortable like how she used to be at her home.
She forced a smile and said, "Sure, Abeonim."
"Do you guys have any plans of going for the honeymoon?" Mr. Lee asked the couple.
Young-soo stopped having the food, replied his father, "No dad I don't have any plans on going for a honeymoon, you know that I'm pretty busy with our business."
Mr. Lee nodded his head in agreement, "do you know that our branch hotel in Jeju Island is running with low profit for the last few months?"
"Yes dad I knew about that and I have received some complaints about the CEO of that branch and also I knew that his work contract is going to end soon." Young-soo replied.
"Thank god for knowing about that, my son. The CEO's work contract is going to end at the end of this month I don't have plans on renewing his contract. So instead of him you take over his designation because only you can make the dramatic changes by becoming a new CEO to that branch."
"But dad, this month is going to end in couple of days and I have a lots of commitments."
"I knew about your commitments but cancel all that and do the process to take over our Jeju branch hotel. Furthermore you are not going alone you are going along with your wife Eunbi. You told me that you don't have time to go for a honeymoon. If you take over our Jeju branch it will make you feel like you went for a honeymoon and at the same time you can look after our business too. Look Young-soo, your mother worries that I have put too much of business pressure on you. Now you are married man so spend some time with your wife and enjoy your marriage life. From now on you are the new CEO to our Jeju branch and you are going to manage only that branch. Therefore, I hope that you guys will prepare your mind and get ready to fly to Jeju Island in couple of days." His father explained him.
"But, dad…"
Mr. Lee stopped Young-soo, saying, "No more buts this is my final decision."
Eunbi cleared her throat on purpose to draw their attentions, "I'm sorry to interrupt your conversations Abeonim, if I go to Jeju Island then what will happen to my studies, I have one more year ahead to complete my master's degree."
"You don't need to worry about your studies, daughter. You can continue your studies in one of the universities at Jeju Island. Young-soo will help you to do all the procedure for your college transfer and also to enroll you in one of the universities at Jeju Island." Mr. Lee assured her.
She nodded her head in acceptance and thanked him.
After the breakfast Mrs. Lee toured the home for Eunbi. She showed her the Young-soo's room and said, "from now on it's also your room, and do you like the room?"
Eunbi looked around the room- it was a classic bedroom, the wall was painted in half-white in color, a queen sized bed and a couch next to it, a rectangular shaped dining table, and a walk in wardrobe. "Yes Eomonim, I like the room it looks so decent and everything was neatly organized." She replied.
Mrs. Lee smiled at her and explained, "Young-soo is a tidy person he need each and everything should be clean and well organized. He doesn't like the housemaids, once he go to his office I ask the housemaids to clean his room and laundry his clothes. I hope that soon you will get adapt to one of his weirdest behaviors.
"Sure, Eomonim." Eunbi replied.
Mrs. Lee gave her a smile as Eunbi replied her with her positive answer without thinking too much. Then she took Eunbi to her room and showed some childhood pictures of Young-soo, by telling her about the pleasant incident behind those pictures, and she shared a few words of her son. "Young-soo used to share each and everything with me and I'm so proud to tell that he is a mama's boy. Being a single child he never asked us he wants this and that, he is such a kind-hearted guy. He is not a guy who runs after business and money which your elder sister has mentioned about him in the letter, he knows the meaning for love, care, and affection. When he was studying his high school he told me about his feelings for a girl. But he was afraid to confess his love to that girl. When he was studying in college, he told me that he has tried so many times to confess his love to that girl but he couldn't.
After graduating in business he takes over our families business and started to run after the business. I asked him few months ago whether he's still having feelings for that girl. He told me it was just an infatuation. I knew he was hiding his feelings because of me. It's all because of me and my husband, we put lots of business pressure on him, so he didn't have time to confess his love to that girl and go out for a date like other youngsters. We decided to get him married so that he can date his life partner and lead a happy life. When his father told him that he has arranged a marriage to him with your elder sister, he accepted to get marry your elder sister without any denial.
Eunbi, you may think why I'm telling all these stories to you now. Do you know the reason why my son asked you to marry him? It's because he couldn't endure when elder's suffers emotionally. He respects elders and their feelings also he cares about his beloved ones. So, please try to understand him, my dear." Mrs. Lee explained.
When Mrs. Lee also says the same reason as Young-soo that why he's married her. Eunbi wondered 'so he told me the truth?' She forced a smile on her face, and assurance her, "sure, eomonim."
Mrs. Lee smiled at her in return, and asked her, "Shall we watch some movies?"
Eunbi nodded her head.
Mrs. Lee played some romantic movies on the DVD player in her room. They both didn't get away from the room they had their lunch and dinner by watching back to back movies without taking a break. Eunbi had fun by watching movies with Mrs. Lee and she quickly gets comfortable with her mother-in-law.
When Young-soo returned back home from his work at 10.30 pm, his father informed him that Eunbi has been watching back to back movies since from the morning with Mrs. Lee in her room. Young-soo was happy to hear that from his father that she gets along with his mother quickly in a day. He freshened up, wore his favorite track pant and t-shirt, went to his mother's room, and asked, "Mom, what you guys are doing? Are you guys still watching the movies do know what the time is now?"
His mother shushed him by putting her index finger over her lips and she gestured him to come and sit next to her. He chuckled, walked towards her slowly, and sat down right next to her on the bed.
"Don't talk too loud, your wife is sleeping. Look at your wife she looks so cute while sleeping." His mother commented.
Young-soo smiled and nodded his head up and down to his mother's comment.
All of a sudden Mrs. Lee started to advice him. "Young-soo, you should take good care of her and make her life colorful. Don't make her feel lonely she would have never imagined that she would be getting married in a short period. At this age she has many dreams and desire about her life and carrier. As a husband you should support and motivate her dreams and respect her feelings. Don't force her for anything, first you guys try to know about each other well. Share your thoughts and pleasant memories with her and spend lots and lots of your free times with her. You are a grown up man Young-soo, so I don't need to advice you a lot, I hope that you will take good care of your wife."
Young-soo nodded his head in understanding.
Mrs. Lee gently patted Young-soo's shoulder, and said, "It's time to sleep; now carry your wife in your arms and take her to your room without waking her up."
"Mom, are you kidding me? I can't do that. I've advice you many times that, to not watch too much of movies and dramas, now see you are asking me to lift her up in my arms like a male lead does in the dramas and movies."
Mrs. Lee gently hit him on his shoulder, "can't you see that she is sleeping? You don't know that you should not wake up a person from sleep for an unwanted reasons. Now gently lift her up in your arms and take her to your room without waking her up." She demanded.
"I can't win against you, mom," Young-soo replied and walked near to Eunbi, he carefully carried up her up in his arms in a bridal style and slowly walked to his room. He gently laid her down on his bed by making sure to not wake her up, then he lay down next to her on the bed, covered their body with a blanket, and he drifted off to sleep.
