12 Its been so long (1/2)

Once they arrive at the house Ha Eun looks in through the window and sees a lot of people inside. There were people dressed as servers walking around with food and drinks.

”Are you guys throwing a party?” Ha Eun asks them. Chang Wook looks inside and groans in frustration.

”Mom, you didn't!” he says to his mother. Do Mi chuckles.

”Its just a few friends. They all wanted to welcome you back home” Do Mi said. Chang Wook didn't see that as a few friends. Most of the people in there were his parents friends or his father's business partners. In his childhood he hardly had any friends.

Ha Eun though seemed impressed. The people in there really did seem happy and excited to be there, not like the birthday parties that were thrown for her. It was mostly obligatory to attend and the only people that did attend where business partners and families that wanted to unite with the Oh family. No one was ever really there because they wanted to congratulate her for becoming a year older, no one was really there because they were excited that she was born.

Once inside everyone greeted Chang Wook, completely ignoring Ha Eun.

”You're back!”

”How have you been?”

”You've gained weight”

”You've grown”

”You must be breaking hearts over there in Seoul”

Ha Eun saw those as words from people that cared about him, while Chang Wook found those as words coming from nosy people.

”Hi. I'm back. Its so good to see you all again!” Chang Wook said as he walked past everyone.

Chang Wook and Ha Eun manage to get away from Do Mi and Soo Ryun.

”This is the hardest thing we'll be doing” Chang Wook whispered to Ha Eun ”People are going to be asking questions about us and our relationship”

”That's easy, just tell the truth” Ha Eun said ”And if they ask if we're dating, we say we're engaged” It wasn't that hard, she found it annoying how Chang Wook was stressing about it when he was the one that said he was going to be the one to tell everyone about their relationship.

”Yeah but what do we say after we're getting married? They'll want to know how long we've been together. How I proposed...” Chang Wook said hoping Ha Eun had any ideas she could come up with but, she didn't say anything.

”You were the one that was going to tell everyone. Why should I say anything?” Ha Eun said looking away.

”Really? You're being like this now?” Chang Wook felt frustrated. Suddenly someone taps him on the shoulder. He turns around and sees a girl with long wavy hair, wearing a summer dress and a huge smile on her face.

”Mi Jin” Chang Wook said. The girl chuckles and they hug. Ha Eun looks at both of them, her eyebrows raised.
