Chapter 2 Meet my Bride
-So, Woo Bin, are you excited to see your future bride? – asked the gloomy looking Yi jeong
-Urgh, why do we have to succumb to our parent's agreement! Huh? –Jun pyo was pacing back and off, scratching his forehead
-I bet you! You're brides are the spoiledest-brats and dumb-asses who doesn't even know the difference from a mop to a toothbrush – Ji Hoo was making fun of them. The latter has been engage to their childhood friend Seo Jin.
-Damn you Ji Hoo! You're lucky you're grandpa pick Seo jin to be your future wife. Jun Pyo did your mom ever describe her to you, the heiress of Biggest hotel and restaurants chains. – curse Woo Bin
-No! tsk! I don't like this idea. She probably eats like a monster, has a fat ass and bouncing belly. Judging from her state of business! Hahahahaha! – laughs the mighty Jun Pyo as he makes fun of his future wife
-I'm more curious with future bride to be – Yi Jeong's eyes look up as if imagining the picture of her bride to be
-Look I don't care! I'm going to tell my mom and dad, screw them! I'm going to get my own bride. I very well can pick them for myself, thank you very much. – said Woo bin
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
-Dad, you gotta hear me out please! I'm 25 years old, you cannot dictate my life anymore. I can find my own bride – Woo Bin storms in, in front of his father's office. Song, Won Chen was shocked to see his son's reaction
-Look! Son! This is my office, can we at least discuss it at home. Where your mother's presence is known
-Dad, you know how mom is!
-I'm sorry son, I didn't arrange this marriage, your mom did! See I told you before, you have to introduce her to someone, at least to some decent woman but you never did, clearly you are still not done from your womanizing acts. Yes you are right, you are 25 years old already but son you need to act like one.
-Urgh, I can't win this, can I?
-Nope, sorry son!
Woo bin walks out of his father's office with frustrations in his face. He didn't even face his father when his father called out to him
-We still love you son
-Yeah, yeah! – waving his hands to his father
Dinner came and Woo bin was still thinking about his future wife to be. Tomorrow will be the last day of his life. He is doomed for the rest of his life with a woman that he doesn't even know. He had always admired his parents for they have both been in love with each other ever since. His father although the leader of the underworld mafia has been so soft spoken and sweet when it comes to his mother. Song Won Chen would always come home to his wife after a round the world business meeting. He would always bring her presents and gifts and then he would take her out on a vacation just to make up to her. Unlike So Yi Jeong, Gu Jun Pyo and Yoon Ji Hoo, his F3 friends, he was raised with love, trust and sense of family. Although he is the only son of Song clan, a future leader of the underworld mafia and a CEO of the Il shen construction, his mother treated him like an ordinary boy; she thought him how to cook and do some stuffs at home; like helping her takes care of her garden. He loves his mother dearly but now just of the thought of her mingling with his own life; he is disappointed.
-Mom!
-For the last time Song Woo Bin, my decision is final
He knew the tone of his mother's voice. As soon as she called off his whole name, it only means one thing. She is deadly serious and that her final words struck him like a lightning. He looks onto his father, hoping to see some sign of sympathy towards him but then he saw none. Clearly Song won Chen is fearsome and dangerous but compared to his mother the previous was nothing.
-Now I assume you are already pack and all set? Our flight is in 2 hours, all of your 3 best friends and their parents have been inform already. Mrs. Kang, GU junpyo's mother was kind enough to provide the air jet for all of us. And former President Yoon with his grandson Ji Hoo will be joining with us too.
His mother stood up and pats him in the back. –Son, trust me, I'm your mother! Mothers know best!
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Yawning and stretching, they finally arrive at Los Angeles International Airport; waiting for the noble women to come out from the restrooms, the F4 decided to walk ahead leaving their parents behind. Woo bin and Yi jeong were strutting around for a couple of American girls ogling at them when somebody bumps into them.
-Ow! Move!
-Uhm! Excuse me; you're supposed to say I'm sorry Sir! – Woo Bin complained
-Oh! I'm sorry sir! Please forgive us! My sisters and I are in a hurry, trying to catch up our flight – explained the younger girl next to the snob one.
-Ga eul! – jae kyung looks at Ga eul in the eye and stared straight Woo bin
- You should be the who should be sorry. – replied the spoiled Jae kyung
-Jae kyung, if Jandi hears you right now, you're in trouble. It's our fault. Sorry again sir – Ga eul said as she bowed to Yi jeong and Woo bin
-It's okay! Miss. Ga eul right? – Yi Jeong now speaks up for the very first time. He felt a sudden lump upon his throat when she gives him a bright, innocent smile. It was pure, he had met a lot of women, but this is the first time he was actually attracted to a girl that was not even his type at all. Yes not his type, she was clearly the type of girl who believes in happy ending judging by how her innocent looking face is and the way she dress, he can tell that she was an ordinary girl, a commoner, even though her beauty and skin is undeniably soft and healthy.
-No! Her name is not Ga eul! – jae kyung steps forwards in front of Ga eul as if to shield her from a dangerous attack.
Woo bin was about to say something when they heard an announcement "Last call for flight DW 0057 bound for Seoul Korea"
-Come on Ga eul, - Jae Kyung grabs Ga eul's hand and drags her towards the boarding gate. Leaving the two gentlemen behind them
-Wow! That girl is snob! Clearly she doesn't know her place – Woo bin was pissed, nobody, no one had ever done that to him. Every girl in Korea would throw themselves at him.
-She is cute! – Yi Jeong said while smirking
-What? She is stupid
-Hey Woo Bin they are bound for Seoul Korea right? I mean they were in a hurry when that announcement came on.
-Yes, they are definitely Koreans but I'm 100 percent sure they are born here in America, judging from their clothes and how snob that other girl is
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
The ride to the Ha mansion was terrible; it took them 2 hours to get to their destination. The place was not far it was just because of the traffic that is why they got stuck in between.
