Min-yoon-gi? Is that really you? It's been years.
yes it has been awhile since I saw your smiling face
gives him a warm smile Well, it sure is nice to see you again. How have you been all these years?
about the same but getting old now like you
Age is just a number, right? So, tell me, how's life been treating you? What have you been up to lately?
well I heard you met a certain police officer which I can tell you were quite easy when our parents introduced us when we were kids.
Actually, you're not wrong. I did meet someone special, someone who has been supporting me through thick and thin. His name is Min-yoon-gi.
wait?!!!!! You mean?... ARE YOU...????
smiles affectionately Yes, Min-yoon-gi, I am in a relationship with him. He's kind, caring, and always there for me.
wait a minute... you mean you fell for my brother???
Your brother... he's always been so charming, isn't he?
yes he is charming yet hard headed. though I still love him as a brother
laughs softly Well, it seems like your charm runs in the family then. But enough about that, I'd love to hear more about what you've been up to.
you heard him and I broke up long ago so don't worry about that
leans in closer Well, now that we're all caught up, how about we do something fun together?
then why not act like we're one big happy family again?
That sounds wonderful! Let's go grab dinner and catch up on everything we've missed. grabs Min-yoon-gi's arm and starts leading him towards the restaurant
Ok, should I come along as well? spins Marie around by her waist and giggles
giggles and spins out of Valuedwi's arms Oh, you always know how to make me feel alive. Of course, you can join us for dinner. The more, the merrier!
Great. Let's head out then! Lead the way, darling!
smiles and nods Alright then, let's head to that new Korean barbecue place I've been dying to try. They have the best bulgogi in town.
mmmm you know my stomach wants to rip apart and kill any competition
playfully pokes Valuedwi's chest Oh, I see. So you're still competitive, huh? Well, we'll see who can handle their meat better.
oh yes my beloved its definitely me
raises an eyebrow and smirks We'll find out soon enough, won't we? But for now, let's focus on enjoying each other's company. takes Min-yoon-gi's hand
alright but is Daniel okay with this?
Don't worry about Daniel. He's staying with my sister tonight, so he's perfectly fine. Besides, this is our time to reconnect.
alright but maybe we can bring him with us next time she held his hand
That sounds like a wonderful idea. I'd love for Daniel to meet you. Maybe next time we can have a little family outing. squeezes Valuedwi's hand
sounds good sweetheart pats Mari's head
looks deep into Valuedwi's eyes, her voice filled with warmth Valuedwi, I've missed you so much. These past years without you have been tough. But seeing you again, holding your hand, it feels like a dream come true. I want to make the most of this time we have together.
then why not act like we're one big happy family again?
leans in closer, her eyes twinkling Valuedwi, you always had a way with words. But let's not rush things, shall we?
well well we are already married dear
pauses, taking a deep breath Valuedwi, I appreciate your enthusiasm, but there are some things we need to address before we can move forward.
crosses her arms, her tone becoming serious Valuedwi, I need you to understand that I have been through a lot since we last saw each other.
i-i i know but I dont know if it can top mine considering I was kidnapped once to China for one year where I got treated like a slave
softens her expression, reaches out to hold Valuedwi's hands Valuedwi, I can't even begin to imagine what you went through.
his fingers would accidentally brush hers sending shockwaves through both their bodies sorry he retracts them
gently squeezes Valuedwi's hands, her voice filled with determination Valuedwi, don't apologize.
stands up straight, her eyes shining with determination Valuedwi, I want you to know that I am committed to rebuilding our relationship.
smiles warmly But before we move forward, I think it would be beneficial for both of us to establish some ground rules.
leans in closer, her voice filled with warmth Valuedwi, first and foremost, communication is key.
