Blooming Love | Jung Hoseok

Five

You are now sitting face to face with Mrs. Sorn and Mrs. Jung. You scanned their current expression and it shows nothing but disappointment. Your heart felt like it could jump out of your chest in fear anytime soon.

"What is it that you want to talk to m-me about Mrs. Sorn and Mrs. Jung" You asked them while stuttering like a mess.

They shake their heads and replied, "There you go again, calling us by our names, you've becoming a part of the Jung's family now, you should be calling us mom and grandma honey"

'Wait, this is what they were upset about? Not what's relating to me and Hoseok?' You thought to yourself as you open your eyes and mouth wide.

"O-oh, I'm very sorry.. mom, grandma" You bowed to both of them.

"Now that's better, remember to call us like this from now on okay? If you forget, I'll be very very unhappy" Mrs. Sorn or should you call, mom, pouted at you.

You sighed in relief and smiled at them, "Yes mom, grandma, I'll keep this in mind"

They spent their evening at your home and had dinner with you and your family, which is almost a routine for everyone now.

During dinner, your mother in law and grandma did not hesitate to bring up the topic of asking you and your family to go and live with them at their house. This gave you quite a shock because Hoseok had asked you this before but you didn't get to tell him your answer since you forgot about it and Hoseok didn't mention it either. Although, you and your mom did talk about this at one point and she immediately gave them her final answer. Your mom denied their offer obviously but they were very considerate towards your mom's decision and didn't ask any further.

Your mom did told you that, she do wanted to go live with you and her in-laws but the only problem that held her back was your cousins. She was afraid they'd know about your engagement and would try to cause troubles by bothering Hoseok's family for money. This was the main reason why you stayed back and decided not to think about this just yet. Your mom actually tried to persuade you to go and live with them but you didn't think twice about your decision. You wanted to be with her and your little sister and help them with everything that you could.

As you were about to close your eyes and go to sleep, the memory of Hoseok's change in attitude towards you came to your mind. You weren't able to go to sleep until late at night because you kept overthinking of many possible reasons why he suddenly act this way.

Many long months had gone by and you and Hoseok grew even further apart. There were no interactions, no breakfast nor dates anymore. No calls, no text messages; just you and him becoming strangers. You don't understand why you and him turned out to be this way when everything was going good at first. You can't say how you feel about him because you didn't really catch any feelings for him yet. You don't care about the feelings, just only about the closeness you both had before.

Up until now, your mom and Hoseok's family don't even know about what had happened between you and Hoseok. Why? Because when you all have dinner or go out together, Hoseok would just act like he and you are getting along very well when in reality, he ignores you and doesn't really talk to you that much. When he does, he would only answer you a few words and leave. You didn't say anything about this to your mom and neither did you have the intention to. You prefer to keep it this way because you don't want both sides of the family to feel bothered and upset.

But why would Hoseok continued to keep this lost communication between you and him a secret anyways? If he hates you, why don't he just break off the big wedding and instead, tell his family that he no longer wants to marry you?

You thought of this from his perspective also. Maybe, he didn't want to worry his mom and grandma like how you wouldn't want to worry your mom.

The unsolved absence in you and Hoseok's relationship kept going on until the big wedding day. And even to this big day, he still didn't say anything about you and him and just proceed with the marriage.
