Two months later

Dear diary,

It is hard to believe I have been married for two months now. It still feels like yesterday when I said my vows and accepted Yi Jung as my husband, but to say the least, I am really happy being with him. Sure in the beginning I didn't think I could stand a jerk like him, but the more time we spent together, he really is a great guy. Super sweet and thoughtful, just last week he threw a huge birthday party for his mother. He and I planned everything thoroughly and she loved it, it was a beautiful moment to see him and his mother love one another so much. I cannot believe I am saying this but he really makes me happy, I have never felt this way with anyone. I don't know what it is, but I enjoy being around him, when we stay up watching movies, or just going for a walk after we eat, regardless of what we do, I am happy being near him. Recently he has been stressed due to the business stocks, and I want to make it up to him, just seeing him so upset doesn't sit well with me, maybe we could do something to…

"What are you doing?" Ga Eul startled, turns around to see Yi Jung walking into the room loosening his tie with a smile on his face. Ga Eul mentally cursed that smile that instantly got her heart racing, forcing all thoughts aside she fumbles through the pages and tosses her pen in her diary, and closes the book hiding it away in her drawer "n-nothing"

"Hey, I thought there were no secrets between us," Yi Jung comments, placing his hands on his hips.

"It isn't a secret, just dumb. Nothing worth talking about '' Ga Eul replied fidgeting in place causing Yi Jung's smile to grow wider.

"Well then if it's nothing then I can see right?" Yi Jung sprints towards the drawer and attempts to open it, Ga Eul blocks him and pulls him away causing them both to lose balance and fall on the bed, Yi Jung lifts himself up to realize he was on top of Ga Eul. Finally opening her eyes, Ga Eul finds Yi Jung staring down at her, time stopped and no words were exchanged. Yi Jung cleared his throat and smiled, "clumsy as always, huh?" playfully rubbing Ga Eul's head he gets up, "I- I am going to go shower. It's been a long day" before Ga Eul could reply Yi Jung headed towards the bathroom locking the door behind him. Ga Eul sits up placing her hand over her chest feeling her heart racing 'why does this keep happening?' pushing her thoughts aside Ga Eul heads for the kitchen.

'That was close.' Yi Jung rests his back against the door, placing his hand over his chest. He could feel his heart racing as if he had just run a marathon. Resting his head back on the door Yi Jung closes his eyes and takes a deep breath 'why does my heart keep behaving this way. Ever since Ga Eul and I have been on good terms I can't help but always want to be with her, always see her smile, just to have her by my side makes me warm' shaking his head Yi Jung throws away all his thoughts and looks at his surroundings to realize he was in Ga Eul's bathroom. Sure they were on good terms but decided to be in separate rooms. Not having the energy to head back to his room, Yi Jung decides to take his shower while he could and hopefully leave and not run into Ga Eul.

Ga Eul on the other hand was having her own questions of their current encounter, she wanted to settle her feelings but before her thoughts could get deeper, a voice called out "Ga Eul, can you come here please" turning around Ga Eul was presented with a smiling Mrs. So.

"Yes, Mrs. So?" Ga Eul replied as she stood in front of her mother-in-law.

"Ga Eul I told you to call me omma. No need to call me with such formality. I accepted you as a daughter a long time ago, can't you accept me as your mother?" Mrs. So questioned lowering her head.

"I am sorry Mrs- I mean omma. You called me?"

"Have you seen Yi Jung? I asked him to come back home early today, he has been really stressed with work and I wanted you two to go out for a while so he could clear his head and relax"

"He is in my room taking a shower" Ga Eul replied fidgeting with her fingers, as much as she didn't want to think about Yi Jung he kept appearing in her mind, and now knowing he was showering in her bathroom, her mind drifted to how Yi Jung's body might look and 'NO! Ga Eul, get your head out of the gutter' Ga Eul mentally cursed her thoughts and missed Mrs. So smirk after hearing Ga Eul's response.

"Okay then, here are his clothes, you can give them to him since he is in your room. Oh and here are some of your clothes too that came back from the dryers" Mrs. So hands Ga Eul a pile of clothes and walks away at a speed of light before Ga Eul could say anything. Ga Eul heads back for her room when she accidentally drops a few clothes in the hallway and her eyes widen with shock. In the pile of clothes were her undergarments, how could she possibly take this in the room right now with Yi Jung there? A crimson shade of red rose to her cheeks feeling flushed with the situation, Ga Eul quickly gathers all the clothes and holds her undergarments in one hand and Yi Jung's clothes in the other, hoping to reach her room and put away her stuff before Yi Jung is done.

Yi Jung wraps a towel around his waist and peeks out the door, taking a breath of relief he steps out of the bathroom seeing no sign of Ga Eul, he was about to rush out of the room till curiosity got the best of him and his eyes landed on her drawer. Maybe he could see what she was writing about before she got back Yi Jung thought to himself as he ran towards her drawer, opening the top one and reaching inside to pick up the book but instead his eyes landed on the thank you card she gave him on their wedding night, 'i thought she threw this away'. He never got the chance to even read it, pulling it out Yi Jung began to read it until he heard footsteps and closed the drawer but kept the card in his hand, realizing he still had the card Yi Jung instantly hides it behind his back. Ga Eul walks into her room shocked seeing Yi Jung already out, instantly she hides both her hands behind her back.

"You are done with your shower already?"

"Yeah, just needed a quick one for now. What are you hiding back there?" Ga Eul could feel her cheeks heat up all over and she couldn't tell if it was because of what she held in her hands or because Yi Jung stood in front of her with nothing more than a towel around his waist. Ga Eul scanned him, his hair strands dripping water that fell down his neck to his broad shoulders and later trailing down to his toned torso, Ga Eul followed the drop of water till it reached his belly button she cleared her throat looking anywhere but his direction. "Nothing, I have your clothes. What are you hiding?" Yi Jung didn't know how to respond to her question without making her think he was some creep looking through her stuff. "Nothing, just my stuff, can't show you" 'wow what a great excuse stupid' Yi Jung mentally yelled at himself but thankfully Ga Eul just nodded. Reaching out her hand with his clothes towards him, Yi Jung grabs it with his free hand and runs outside. Ga Eul quickly stashed her undergarments in her drawer and sat on her bed taking a deep breath.

Yi Jung was near his room when he witnessed his mother standing near his door, "omma is everything okay? Do you need anything?" Mrs. So scans her son and can't help but burst out laughing. Yi Jung rolls his eyes trying to head into his room and change into an appropriate attire yet his mother kept blocking his way. "Why don't you go change in the room you took the shower in?"

"Omma! I can't do that! Ga Eul is there and it is her room. I was just too tired to go to my room to shower" Yi Jung attempts to enter his room once again but fails as his mother continues to block his way. "You change in Ga Eul's room or out here"

"Fine I will just go to another room, there are more than two rooms in this house"

"You know with a snap of my fingers, each and every room will be locked and there will only be two options for you. One, go back to Ga Eul's room. Or two put on a show here for the audience down there" Mrs. So points her head downstairs where their maids had circled round and watched him, exchanging giggles every second as they looked up at him.

"Mother you are impossible!"

"To handle a son like you I have to be! Now go!" Yi Jung points towards his mother to say something but nothing left his mouth and in defeat heads back towards Ga Eul's room, not realizing he dropped something as he walked away. Mrs. So seeing the card picks it up and reads it 'these two brats really didn't even kiss on their wedding day? I thought Yi Jung was only lying to me.' as an idea crept into her head she couldn't help but smile to herself 'well we will have to change that' Mrs. So hurried the same direction Yi Jung retreated to.

"Oh did you forget something?" Ga Eul questioned seeing Yi Jung walking into her room in the same state he had left.

Yi Jung rubs his head "omma wants me to change here"

"What why?"

Yi Jung shrugs his shoulders "I wish I knew but it is either here or out in front of the maids. I thought it was better here" Yi Jung avoided eye contact until he felt Ga Eul soften and looked up to see her smiling. "No worries, I will head downstairs and you can easily change here" as if on cue, soon as Ga Eul got up from her bed the door shut and while attempting to open the door it seemed to have been locked from outside. Ga Eul turns around to see an annoyed Yi Jung "I don't know what omma is up to, I will go into the bathroom and change."

Few minutes go by as Yi Jung emerges from the bathroom in his plain t-shirt and sweatpants, Ga Eul curses under her breath, how could someone look this good in any attire. Yi Jung still had a towel over his wet hair and continued to rub it on his hair gently as he sat next to Ga Eul.

"Omma wants us to go out for the day, any ideas what we should do? I think we both could use a relaxing day. What do you say?"

Ga Eul avoiding eye contact responded "yes, I was thinking we could have a picnic. It is a nice day and it would be relaxing to be outside" Yi Jung gave this idea some thought before nodding his head "sounds like a plan. I will get the picnic essentials we will need ready and you get the food prepared since omma loves your cooking"

"Admit it you like my cooking too" Ga Eul sticks out her tongue causing Yi Jung to chuckle and remove the towel off his head and drop it on hers. Yi Jung headed for the door and thankfully it had been unlocked, Yi Jung smiled to himself as he looked back at Ga Eul "I love your cooking, feel free to cook for me anytime" Yi Jung winked at the confused girl and headed out. Ga Eul blinked a few times before realizing what he just said.

"Hello?"

"Hello, old friend"

"What do you want this time? Wasn't making me lie to my best friend enough for you?"

"Woo Bin we haven't even started yet. I haven't asked for anything in two months. But I think it's time for repayment from you" Woo Bin clenched his teeth.

A/N: I hope you all enjoyed this chapter! I know this was a bit different from other chapters but I really wanted to showcase how Yi Jung and Ga Eul have changed not only their behaviors towards one another but also their feelings. What do you think Mrs. So is it up to now? What kind of repayment will Woo Bin have to pay? Let me know your thoughts and answers in the comments! I love reading them all! The next chapter will have our two love birds even closer, do look forward to it!
