He rested his body on the bed and murmured in a low voice, oh! God, what’s wrong with this girl? She thinks that she is brave enough to do anything in her mind but she just faint or cries in front of me like a fool. Huh! I don’t know how I’m going to run my life with her.

In the bathroom she stood in front of the bathroom mirror, stared at her face it looks so tired, swollen, and has hand prints on either side of her cheeks. She opened the water tap and let the water to flow she gathered some of the water in her palms, and splashed it over her face. She winced in pain as the water contacted at her bruised lip. She washed the hickey mark on her neck by applying some soap over it, zipped the dress properly, and decided to spend the night in the bathroom. She sat down in the empty bathtub by hugging her knees, and laid her head upon them. Tears were flowing down from her eyes as she looked at the wedding ring on her finger, she slides the ring off of her finger and threw it on the floor fiercely. Omma, Appa, you guys believed him blindly that he will take good care of me but he just broke all your beliefs. You guys had never laid your hand on me but he harmed me both physically and mentally at the very first day of my marriage. Appa, why did you choose a psychotic pervert as my husband? She uttered in silence and cried alone in the bathroom.

Young-soo woke up as usual at 6.30 am in the morning and stared at the empty side of the bed. He sat down, leaned back his body over the bed rest, rubbed his eyes with his palms, stifled a yawn, and stretched his body by lifting his hands together above his head. He gazed at the couch thought, whether she might be sleeping on the couch but she was not there too, he wondered, "where the hell has she went early in the morning without a word?" He got down from the bed walked towards the restroom, he twisted the restroom door knob to open it, but it was locked from the other side of the door so he couldn’t open it. He felt displeased at the morning to wait and use the restroom to do the morning business. He knocked the door and waited, as there was no response from her he shouted in an annoyance, "Yah! Eunbi come out quickly I want to use the bathroom."

While in the restroom Eunbi was sleeping in the bathtub. As she heard the knocking sound of the door she thought it was her mother who knocked the door, "Omma, please let me sleep some more stop knocking the door," she murmured in her sleep. As she turns her body to the other side casually thinking that it was her bed her forehead gets hit on the ceramic bathtub. She opened her eyes by rubbing her forehead with her palm in bemusement. She looked around the surrounding and then realized that it was not her room, it’s a hotel’s restroom. And as she heard him yells at the other side of the door she quickly gets up from the bathtub, opened the door, and looked at Young-soo.

He gazed at her from head to toe in annoyance- her hair was disheveled, and her wedding dress was completely crumpled. "What were you doing inside the bathroom for such a long time without responding my question?" he asked, and pulled her out roughly, entered in the restroom and slammed the door in her face.

No one has done like this to her before, she felt so anxiety and annoyed with his behaviors towards her. She was about to cry but she advised herself to not cry at the morning as soon as she woke up from the sleep and she thought, when he doesn’t want to hear my explanation then why did he questioned me, he is such a pathetic jerk.

When he came out of the bathroom he looked at her while wiping his face with the help of the towel. She was sleeping on the couch in a sitting position. He cleared his throat to draw her attention, "ahem...ahem." She opened her eyes with a jolt and rubbed her eyes gently with her fingers.

"Where did you sleep last night?" he asked her.

She gets down from the couch looked at him and angrily said, "Who are you to me? Why should I answer your questions stop questioning me hereafter, is that clear?"

"What the f**k! I’m married to one of the most arrogant woman in this world. You should answer my questions because you are my fucking wife and you better try to behave properly with me."

"Why should I answer your questions when I haven’t accepted you as my fucking husband? Stop teaching me how to behave with you instead you better learn how to mind your own business?" She yelled out at him.

Young-soo walked near to her crossed his arms over his chest, leaned forward and sneered, "don’t ever dare to raise your voice in front of me again. Do you want me to continue the last night lesson?"

She furrowed her brow in fear, pushed him away, and ran into the bathroom.

This girl acts brave at sometimes, he thought with a chuckle. Then he ordered two cups of coffee and warm water through the telephone in the room, and he made a call to his PA asked him to bring their dresses and accessories to his room. When the orders are delivered to his room he waited for her to join him, but it has been more than a twenty minute yet she didn’t come out of the bathroom. He walked near to the bathroom, knocked the door, "Are you going to spend all day in there? Come out quickly let’s have a cup of coffee." However, there were no reply from her it made him annoyed, he knocked the door again and harder, "I asked you when are you planning to come out of the bathroom, don’t you hear me?" Young-soo yelled out in front of the door.

Eunbi’s heart skipped a beat as he knocked the door harder. She was scared whether he’ll harass her if she goes out of the bathroom. However, she can’t stay inside the bathroom for all day she has to get away at one point. She knew that if she continues to lock inside the bathroom like a fool nothing is going to be change, so she decided to be brave in front of him and smack his face off if he tries to touches her without her consent. She took a deep breath, mustered up her courage, and replied, "I’ll come in a few minutes." Then she quickly washed her face with some plain water and opened the door of the restroom.

There she was surprised to see him stood in front of the door with his hands on his hips. "Finish doing your business in the bathroom?" he asked.

Young-soo just stood there in silence he was exasperated with it and yelled at her, "don’t you have some manners? God! Open your mouth and answer me if I ask you something."

"I-I’m sorry," she uttered.

Young-soo tightly pressed his lips together, dropped his gaze on the floor, and shook of his head in displease. He walked towards the dining table pulled out the chair and sat down. He gazed back at her, "Why are you standing there come and serve me a cup of coffee," he said in an exasperated tone.

She walked near him, sat down on the chair which was opposite to him, poured some of the coffee into the cup from the white ceramic coffee pot, and asked him, "Do you want me to add sugar cubes in it?"

"Yep, one sugar cube please." He replied.

Eunbi added a sugar cube in his coffee cup, placed a teaspoon on the saucer, and served it to him.

He stirred the coffee in the cup with the help of the teaspoon, held the cup in his hand, smelled the aroma, and took a sip. While drinking the coffee he gazed at her face, "you are looking so weak as if you were discharged from the hospital." He commented as if she asked him how she was looking. He placed the coffee cup on the table, "now go get ready we are going to my home I hope that you know how to act in front of my parents. If you dare to open your mouth to tell about the last night incident to any of our parent you’ll face the consequences, so behave properly do you understand?" he threatened her.

Eunbi nodded her head. He hit the table with his fist angrily and looked at her with a scorching gaze he demanded her to open her mouth and answer him.

She was startled with a jerk and said, "ye-yes I understand." She tried to be brave in front of him but she couldn’t know why she fails to do so when he raised his voice in front of her.

He demanded her to hide all the marks on her face and neck with the help of the makeup and made sure that she should look good in front of his parent. He informed her that her dress and accessories are in the mini trolley bag which was next to the TV unit. Then he took out her wedding ring from his shorts pocket, placed it on the table, and moved it towards her side, saying, "I found this in the bathroom." He took another sip of the coffee and continued, "In this moment I would like to make clear about a thing that, you should wear this ring even if you don’t like to slide this ring on your finger, you have no other choice because now you are a married woman."

Oh yes, now I’m your caged bird but I know how to get away from your cage. She thought to herself, took the ring from the table, and slides it on her ring finger.

First Young-soo got ready and waited for her to get ready. He waited patiently on the couch by reading some magazines, once Eunbi got dressed she said, "I’m ready shall we move?"

historical

"Yup," he replied and glanced at her from head to toe and for a second he was stunned by admiring her beauty- the makeup on her face was flawless and she looked so gorgeous thus he couldn’t take off of his eye of her.

She was confused and unable to predict the way as he looks at her without waving his eyes. "Is there something on my face?" She asked him.

He stopped admiring her beauty and answered, "No there is nothing on your face come on let’s move now." He called his secretary Jaemin through the phone asked him to bring his car to the entrance of the hotel. When they reach the entrance of the hotel Young-soo’s personal chauffeur already has been waiting for him in the car at the entrance. The couple gets into the back seat of the car the chauffeur started the engine and drove the car to Young-soo’s home.

The car ride was occupied with dead silence both of them were not willing to start the conversation. Eunbi looked so bored, she kept on yawning as she didn’t slept well last night, and soon she fell asleep and rested her head softly on the closed glass window of the car like a child.
