My Instant Marriage-Chapter 25 I can’t understand the reason why you do not believe my words
That following day in the night Young-soo took her to a beach restaurant for dinner. Eunbi was wearing a white floral print off shoulder neckline ruffled trim maxi dress, and Young-soo was wearing blue polo t-shirt and red camel shorts. It was a candle light dinner and they ordered some famous sea foods of Jeju Island such as grilled sea bream, hairtail fish soup, abalone kimbap, and, fried anchovies. Once their orders are served on their table they had the food items one by one. In-between that Young-soo gave her a present, "I haven't given anything to you since our wedding, so this is my small gift, hope you'll like it."
Eunbi was totally surprised with Young-soo's gift. She thanked him with a smile, unwrap the gift wrapper and opens the box- it was a beautiful diamond solitaire pendant necklace, "wow, it looks so beautiful I love it." She said and took the necklace out of the box and place it around her neck, "how is it?" she asked him.
"It looks so pretty," Young-soo, commented.
When she tries to wear the necklace around her neck she was unable to clasp the necklace. As Young-soo saw that she was struggling to wear that necklace around her neck he gets down from his chair, walks near to her, and softly grabbed the two ends of the necklace. Her heart thumped as his fingers brushes hers fingers softly she tries to ignore the new feelings by biting her lower lip gently.
"Leave it to me I'll help you out." He said and clasped the two end of the necklace around her neck successfully. Then he took out his cell phone from his trousers pocket and took a selfi with her by nearing his face next to her. He checked the picture whether it came out well or not by without moving an inch from that position, but as he saw that Eunbi was feeling uncomfortable with him he gets back to his place and continues to have the food.
After the dinner they went for a walk at the seashore of the beach. There he informed her that in a couple of days he's going for a business trip to Japan for two-days and one-night therefore he asked her, "will you manage to spend the night alone in the house?"
"Yeah, I'll manage of my own you don't worry about me." Eunbi replied.
"During my absence try to get back home earlier, if you are scared to spend the night alone in the house ask your friend Hee-jung to stay with you."
Eunbi smirked at him, "I'm not scared to spend the night alone in the house, and I'm so excited for that day."
"Then all the best enjoy that moment safely," he said and stood in front of her, outstretch his hand. Eunbi was startled and shook her hand with him.
"Shall we sit down for a while?" Young-soo asked her.
"Sure," Eunbi replied.
They sit down next to each other on the soft sand of the seashore. "I always love to sit down on the soft sand of the seashore and admire the dark blue sea under the moonlight."
"I love that too, because it was such an amazing feeling to see the sea under the moonlight. The cold breeze, the sea waves sound, it just relaxes my mind."
Young-soo sighed and lies down on the seashore with his hands behind his head.
"Yeah, what are you doing Young-soo, you are dirtying yourself, get up now." Eunbi scolded him softly.
But Young-soo didn't get-up instead he stretched out his hand to the side and asked her to rest her head over his arm.
She raised her eyebrow at him, "No thanks, I'm comfortable by sitting."
"Yeah, I don't eat you alive, now come, and rest your head over my arm, and look at the sky," he compelled her.
"I'm not scared of you, so stop imagining things."
"If you are not scared then why are you hesitating," he paused for a seconds and teased her, "or else, are you feeling shy with me?"
She took a deep breath, dusted his arm roughly with her hand, and rested her head over his arm, "are you happy, now?"
"hmm"
They maintain awkward silence for a few minutes as their heart was beating fast all of a sudden. They know the reason why their heart was reacting like that even though they just stay in that position on the seashore by staring at the night sky, and try to be normal. Eunbi first broke the silence, "wow, you are right Young-soo, it was such a beautiful view to stare the night sky in this possession, look how the starts are glistening in the sky."
"Yes I'm always right; the only person who doubts my suggestion is only you. Yet, I can't understand the reason why you do not believe my words."
"The reason why I do not believe your words it's because of your misbehaviors with me, I try my best to forget those ghastly moments of my life, but I couldn't. Whenever you get near me I'm scared whether you'll hurt me again like you did in the past." She said and looked at him.
He turned his head to her side, their eyes met with each other, Young-soo quickly made an apology without a second thought, "I'm extremely sorry for my misbehaviors with you, I promise you that I'll never hurt you again, and I really mean it. I'll not touch you with an intimate thought against your wish."
She looks at his eyes and sensed that he was so serious about his apologies; therefore she nodded her head and blinked her eyes at him with an acceptance.
"Eunbi, what you are going to do after graduating your masters, and what is your ambition." He asked her out of the blue without taking his eyes off of her.
She couldn't guess why he's asking about that now, even though she replied him, "My ambition is to become a teacher. But my future was already planned by my father, after my graduation like you I should also take care of my family's business." She looked up at the sky and sighed, "My dreams and desires are trapped in my father's hands so I can't achieve that."
"Do you still think that your dreams and desires are trapped in your father's hands?" he paused for few seconds, "now you are married which means I'm your responsible and you are my responsible no one can interfere in our life until we make mistakes. So focus on achieving your ambition your father will not interfere in your dreams and desires anymore, I'll support you don't worry." He encouraged her with his advice.
Eunbi couldn't believe that he could be this supportive, and she was moved by his words. "No one has asked about my ambition, dreams, and desires. You are the first person to ask such things to me, thank you so much for asking about it." Her voice broke and her eyes welled up with tears as she said that to him.
Young-soo was startled to see the tears in her eyes and he widens his eyes, "What happened why you are crying?"
Eunbi sat up, hugged her knees, and cried silently. Young-soo couldn't understand the reason why she was crying all of a sudden. He sat up, placed his hand gently over her shoulder, and asked, "Are you all right, Eunbi?"
She nodded her head in a few seconds, "yes I'm alright." She said and wiped off her tears.
As they were gazing at each other's eyes, Eunbi felt uncomfortable she cleared her throat, "shall we move from here?"
Young-soo nodded his head, "let's move from here, it's already 10:15 pm." He said and stood up first and dusted off his back roughly with his hands. He gave his hand to Eunbi; she looked at his hand for a few seconds, then she held his hand for a support and stood up. Then they walked to the parking lot of the restaurant, get into their car, and Young-soo drove the car to their house.
During the car ride to their house Eunbi was full of thought whether to believe him or not, but she could understand that Young-soo is not too bad person.
